I'm really trying to enjoy this but there's just something about the complexity of the controls that is driving me to frustration.

Grab/Hold/Collect, I just don't like it and I don't get why Hold and Collect aren't just the same thing and why Grab doesn't just work by holding the Use button.

Having to press jump twice to mantle instead of just being able to hold jump is also frustrating me.

This is all probably just a me issue because I assume the control granularity is part of the whole experience, unfortunately that's just not my cup of tea.


Edit: Alternative interact mode is better, still a bit too much granularity but I can play it for now.

Edit Edit: Why, when I press R, do I try to put an item in my hotbar instead of dropping it?

Edit Edit Edit:  WHY IS IT ALT-R?  Also I rebound it to middle mouse to see if it was a bug or something and when I go to switch it back it won't change back to R!  I'm gonna come back to this game in a few updates I think.  I love LOVE the vibe but the controls are not for me.

To be fair, the tutorial does explain the R vs Alt-R thing, but for people used to normal WASD-controls in games I agree it's a bit clunky.

I like the complexity, personally, but some things should be tweaked slightly to accomodate players like yourself who struggle with it, and to improve the experience for those who don't, as well. Even I don't use the default; I rebound 'ALT' mode from Left Alt to K (one of my mouse's 24 side buttons), among other things.
