Also, current community build is not mobile friendly. Scrolling through mobile phone or touch screen is a torture, because you can't hold your finger on the screen, while sliding it up/down. No, you have to lightly tap it up/down over and over again, otherwise the screen won't move. And even then-it's gonna move bit by bit, making reading your community pages through mobile phone an enormously time consuming task.

 To make matters worse, most of mobile phone's screen is occupied with username+picture part of the post, leaving only few spaces for the actual message, which in turn makes one message drag itself down over a great distance. Couple that with earlier scrolling issue and we got ourselves a real problem.

 One more thing regarding key bindings, in-game. Even though the gama allows a combination input during game options screen, it has no respect towards those and just reads the first key out of combination.

I still don't understand from where this mouse based notion came from.

"Yeah thats a fair point on the arrow keys, honestly I have no idea why they have been included in a click to move, top down game but presumably it's with a view to further develop the system in future. I don't think for a single second that you are intended to move with the arrow keys while aiming with the mouse.  My only suggestion is that maybe its been added to enable some form of early controller emulators etc for testing? "

 I don't know about that-gameplay feels far more smooth and natural, when controlling character movement with keyboard and it's not really anything new. Another ARPG game does a great job at that, called Victor Vran. it also has your abilities tied to your gear, a lot like Martyr. Of course, it also has polished jumping mechanics that offers platformer-like experience, puzzle solving and even usable in combat. In short, it feels like it belongs there and not something shoehorned in.

"Re the frequency of dodge, i'd suggest that i'm using them about once every 3-5 seconds. While I appreciate others might feel its not something that particularly benefits them and their play style. But I would argue that it's a reactionary move, it should be instantly accessible whenever needed. So having it under your fingers at all times, for me at least seems the right choice."

 And I fully agree with you on importance of dodge. It trully is irrelevant how often does one uses it, but what does matters is how fast and acurately can it be activated for that one time your life depends on it. And which is why it should be right under your fingers, at all times. 

 Which may not be a problem for you, in case you prefer to control your character like you would in standard ARPG hack&slash-just mouse click whenever you need to go and have your dodge buttons on WASD for those,"oh snap..." moments.

 However, if you are like me, and you enjoy using kayboard for character movement control, while using mouse for aiming(twinstick shooter), then inability to combine keys for achieving quick dodge reaction is a major problem. 

 Now, I'm not saying devs should pick one side and stick to it, I'm just saying that if they wish for diversity, there are easier, standardised methods of achieving such effects. Ofcourse, once again, allowing us to have keys combination in key binding options would solve all the problems.

"The point that I was making was that most people make the argument that WASD doesn't provide enough accuracy in terms of being able to dodge whereas they feel it would be perfectly adequate to continually navigate a map, even with key combining I feel 8 directions on games like this is quite awkward but I accept for many it's manageable."

 I don't know who those people are, but such point of view is a bit ridiculous. This game only allows dodging in four directions, therefore, eight direction dodging is simply a moot point.

 "My other justification for not wanting mouse orientated dodge is that I can mouse over a target while dodging their attacks frequently and maintain constant targeting on them as well as minimal hand movement from either hand, basically none because i'm using wasd to dodge. On the flip side if I wanted to do the same fight with a mouse orientated dodge my right (mouse) wrist would be going "apeshit" while constantly trying to change direction to dodge every 2-3 seconds for a melee enemy and then returning to target them... Something like this would be the end result of a 10 second fight. "

 Believe me, I'm not asking for mouse oriented dodge, either(I don't even know where that came from).

 My complaint is that both dodge and directional buttons should be bound to the same buttons. That way, both are easily accessible and are available on-demand. 

 Fortunately for me, I can achieve that result through macro programming of my keyboard, but it's far from ideal solution and I'd rather the game support such option by itself. 

Everything about it is confusing to me. It did took quite some time for me to figure it out, but even that was done simply because there was no Steam discussion forums.

 And even after figuring this community board out, I still had rug pulled from beneath my feet by it, because of reversed posting order. I'm used to regular forums, where posts are posted on first come-first served basis. The newer the post is-the lower it is located, allowing to read through older posts first, allowing to, eventually, catching up to the thread. 

 Here, it took me reading everything, only to realize I was, in fact, reading in reverse order, reaching your post last. 

 And how do I even multi-quote here?! I want to reply to several people at once, and I want it to be a unified, orderly post, but I can't!

Pretty much that-spot on.
