Decay Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I cant play the game with the current mouse and keyboard keybinds, how do I change them? If they can't be changed, rest assured Im returning the game for a full refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I don't think you can refund a steam game, can you? The devs are working on a patch, which might make it possible to assign keys.

Flouride Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I don't think you can refund a steam game, can you? You can, sometimes. From what I've heard it pretty much depends which Steam staffer handles the case Hate the living, love the dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I believe the coming patch (PC) will address this...from what I read. Let's HOPE!!! Regards "believe in what gods you may, but TRUST in cold hard steel" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 I don't think you can refund a steam game, can you? You can if its retail, its only activated on Steam. I don't understand how developers can overlook something so essential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bottom Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 The Obsidian devs promised they would patch keybinding in. The best flash game ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 I hope so, I was really looking forward to this version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) Well im sorry to say this but, ive returned the game and picked up Alice instead. Don't get me wrong I loved DS1 and DS2, but this is clearly a 'bad' console port. I've not enjoyed playing it with a joypad and if developers can't even be arsed to have a keybind option from launch, then im not wasting anymore time on the game. How anyone can overlook an essential part of gaming for the past 10 years is beyond me. I'll tell you what, ill buy the game when i've 'patched myself' to play it how 'you've forced us to play it'! Its a shame but on "first impressions", im not impressed. Also, from what Im seeing on the forums 6-8 hours to finish? What happened to the epic 20-30 hours completion time (expected)? thats what made the originals so great? Ah well...... another time maybe. I hope others enjoy it, but sadly its not for me in its current state. Take care all! Edited June 20, 2011 by Decay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doublehex Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Also, from what Im seeing on the forums 6-8 hours to finish? Don't know where you saw that. I have seen more in the 12-15 hour category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigranes Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 6-8 if you do some of: skip various sidequests, play on Easy/Normal and blaze through all battles, never track back or walk back and forth, read/skip dialogues really fast, and check your time off the DS3 savefiles (which are several hours wrong). For normal plays, I'd wager 15 (+/- 2).

I'll make a list of the ones I have in my collection if you want which probably amounts to like 30-35 without Keybinds. More if I'm allowed to count more obscure stuff.

MonkeyLungs Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Who cares which games have or haven't ... this IS a standard for PC gaming. Failing to allow for user configurable key binding is a BS console design flaw. (I play on Xbox btw) I think not having remappable buttons on console is also completely lame. If I want to change what buttons or keys do what then let me. Cutting corners with your product then asking people for money is not cool no matter who does it.

Decay Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) One of the devs metioned StarCraft 2 didnt ship with keybinds. ....So is this the excuss the devs are going to use for not having this option available on launch? Starcraft 2 was designed in a maner that it can be played with just the mouse, you don't have to reach halfway across your keyboard to press the 'E' key everytime you need to loot something. In DS3 You can't even click the loot with the mouse to pick up. In every other game I play I prefer to use the 'Return' key to pick things up, open doors etc... it suits my style of play. I don't use the W,A,S,D method, I use the up, down, left, right arrow key method. Do you realise how annoying and frustrating it was for someone with this playstyle to use the defualt 'E' key? I don't understand how something like this wasn't picked up or noticed by any testers, its one of the fundamental laws of gaming as far as I'm concerned. You've already lost 1 sale because of this, and I wonder how many more after playing the demo with the same flaw. I did give the game the 'benefit of the doubt' after playing the demo, afterall I thought to myself "its obviously not the finished product". Dont get me wrong the gameplay and graphics in the demo seemed great, but for me you spoiled the full version with a gamekilling error. No doubt I will give it another try at a later date and the keybinding will be an option, but I can also guarantee it will be when the games on sale.

Sannom Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 you don't have to reach halfway across your keyboard to press the 'E' key everytime you need to loot something. Drama queen much? The 'E' key is one step below the '3' key or above the 'D' key, so no matter where you put your fingers most of the time, its easily accessible.

Nice, im trying to give constructive information to benefit games for the future, but it still attracts the trolls. I don't use that side of the keyboard to play games, all my keys are based around the arrow keys, i don't need to look/search for keys when they all under my fingers. DS3 doesn't allow me to do this, hence the reason I refuse to play it in its current state. There's no drama element, would you like to be forced to play your games with your 'mouse look' upside down? I don't think so, its the same principle.
