I'm used to using ESDF instead of WASD. Is this possible? Also is it possible to strafe in this game?

Thank you!

b:bye

    The game client currently has no general rebinding ability. It's been suggested often, though.
    Also is it possible to strafe in this game?
    From inside the game client, click the button on the bottom right that has two sticks in an X. On the submenu that comes up, click the button that looks like a green computer monitor and keyboard. This brings up the settings menu.

    Click the third button on the top of the Settings menu, labelled Game. Near the top of that section will be the words "A.D. Keys." If you tick the check box to the left of those words, the A and D keys will rotate the camera. If you untick them, the A and D keys will strafe, once you hit Confirm to save your settings.

    It's technically just walking left and right, rather than doing so while facing forward, but for all intents and purposes it is strafing.

    Still keybindings would be awesome. I used to play WoW and becuz of the keybindings it allowed me to play the game better than without.
    I can only use one hand, so XboX gamecontrollers and such as an alternative, are not for me. My left arm is paralysed and I m sure there are many more people who enjoy online RPG games that can only use one hand. It's such a shame game developers in general do not take this into account. In WoW I was still somewhat limited as opposed to 2 handed players but still the keybinding feature made it a lot easier for me.
    Not only WoW has this feature, also the increasing in popularity MMORPG Runes of Magic has this feature (also free to dl and free to play). This is another game I play just becuz it is so similar to WoW (UI modification just as in WoW is also possible in that game) with the exception that it's free.
    Now the UI in PW is pretty nice and nifty so there's no immediate need for UI mods (although some mods could be nice) but keybindings to allow people to play this game comfortably without having to buy controllers and what not would be highly recommendable.
    Ofcourse u can play it with just a mouse, same as WoW and RoM, but in PvP the aspect is speed. Now for one handed players PvP is really hard on a PC unless they can make use of keybindings (many people actually didnt believe me at first in WoW that I play with one hand :P). So there ya have it, the big all encompassing reason as why nice MMORPG's like this really would not only benefit themselves with keybindings, but the players as well. :-)
