Apparently without mouse or keyboard support. [There is a tool "gpdsck" which will help with that; see youtube.] Amazing in a $50 PC game.

Nioh and all Dark Souls-esques games are made for gamepads, you can (technically) play them with keyboard and mouse but it's a pain in the ass.

To be fair, you could easily get an Xbox one controller for a pretty decent price. Refurbished, new, heck even some decent third party ones like Afterglow.

No game should be launched without keyboard and mouse support on pc, and that means keybindings too. I don´t know how steam gave greenlight to this fuckup.

What about people who likes to play with keyboard and mouse?.

I bought afterglow for ~ 40e, and its great. Use it mainly for fighting MKX, racing, snowboard games 😀 Just tried with Nioh and its ok too..

All the whingers complaining about M/Kb support make me laugh. I mean I'm a PC purist and game mostly with M/Kb, but for this? No. Not required. Unless you have some pressure sensitive analog keyboard, it wouldn't work anyway. It's a moot point, you really do not want to play a game like this with digital controls (keyboard) and if you can afford internet access and afford to buy a game, you certainly can afford a controller. The game is great, so much intricacy and depth to it and the gameplay is addictive as hell. 10 hours in and barely scratched the surface.

You flipped that around, you meant to say its a pain to play with a controller, because, controller.

Well, i played that game and Bloodborne on PS4 and Demon Souls on PS3. I can't imagine to control these kind of games better with a KB/M. I tried Dark Souls on Windows with KB/M, the best i can say is it feels "orthopedic".

Yes I'm sure it's terrible with a keyboard/mouse, but the point is that it's a joke to release a game without proper keyboard/mouse support. Japanese companies really don't seem to give a single fuck what the quality of their PC ports are.

Jesus christ dude, what should be next, racing games without gamepad support?, wheel only?.

To the people complaining about no keyboard and mouse support fail to realize that this game was a Console game to begin with so controller/gamepad controls were in mind first. So games like this and Dark Souls and heck even Bayonetta is recommended to play with a controller. Yeah I know that Dark Souls and Bayonetta have keyboard and Mouse support. Since this game and others that were on Console Id rather play with a controller vs keyboard and mouse. But if its a game like Torchlight a Diablo style ARPG Id rather use keyboard and mouse controls. It depends on the type of game.

It really should launch with mouse and keyboard support though, even if it's worse than using a controller. People like the choice based on their own personal preference, this is like releasing a PC FPS on a console, but without controller support. Been looking at the game as never really heard of it (I don't tend to pay much attention to Japanese developed games, as they rarely interest me) and looks ok, kinda overpriced as per the norm nowadays.

It depends on how much the devs are commited to make keyboard and mouse work, when devs care they can make twin stick style shooters work even better than on a gamepad, try shadogrounds or alien breed series... even racing simulators back then when they used to care, you could play just fine with a keyboard: [youtube=arDvDb02P4s] This is just laziness and cheapness, and it´s not the only problem on the game that reflects that.

Any game made for PC should have the ability to use KB/M in my opinion. Nothing wrong with having options.

Nice game but I hate that racism against 21:9 ultrawide monitor support. Go to hell. You should respect your customers more. With these tactics who are you people to blame piracy? Long live pirates. Excuse my attitude but we are going towards 2018. I hate lazy developers.
