I really suck at playing 3D games on a controller. Mouse & keyboard is my go to option for anything that involves aiming or even just controlling a camera in a 3D space.
I can ensure you that mouse + keyboard work perfectly fine in this game. I only play that way for ages and don't even own a controller (or a console for that matter). This is probably the technically best console port I've ever played. So the controls shouldn't be of any concern to you. Go ahead, buy it and enjoy!

I concur.

This was gifted to me for Christmas; and I just started playing it the other day. I only have the mouse and KB; no controller, and it works great. You can even bind the same key to multiple actions if the actions don't conflict with each other (for example, "Loot All" on the same key as "Interact" [with NPC, readable, etc.]), and non-WASD works fine (I don't "do" WASD, preferring the Arrow Keys to move). Also, it warns you if you bind a key to multiple "conflicting" things (and what "thing" it is).

Works very well, and the game is very enjoyable and engrossing atm.

(I'm not very far in, but I'm done with both the beginning "Tutorial" area, and the follow-up nicely-larger area I refer to as the "starter area" [named "The Embrace" I think], and am now out in "the world at large". Has good stealth options too - which, for me, is a preferred way to play).

Keyboard and mouse work fine

Of all the console ports I have played this is one of the better at not needing a controller!
Thanks, guys. Good to know the game can be played fine without a controller

Yes, you can configure all keys for movemnt, combat and menus just as you please. This is not Cyberpunk, the arrow keys are also free for you to use or ignore.

true. i'm actually a bit surprised at just how smoothly everything works in this game.
they put a lot of thought into this port and it's definitely one of the best games i've played.

i'm a bit ashamed to say i avoided buying it for a long while thinking it wasn't my kind of game, and i only bought it because it was on sale and there was nothing else that i didn't already own. silly me.
Far better than for death stranding
even with an azerty keyboard
That my friend is a really good surprise
