Can't manage the movement well

Every new League I see videos pop up hyping up the game, and every league I fall for the hype and want to play.. and then try to.

The result is always the same. I die a lot because of the "movement" of the game, and it infuriates me over and over. Then I log off, don't play, new league, and the cycle repeats.

I don't know if my brain just can't compute it well, but attacks and movements being tied to the mouse doesn't work for me. I try to "move away" from danger, which I think I do, then I attack (even with do not move with this attack toggled on) I end up walking into the danger instead and dying. Every.. single.. time.

My brain is now hard coded for WASD movement. I just don't know if my hand-eye coordination is bad but I never end up where I intend to when walking either. It is SOOO frustrating.


So, I have to ask. Will Path of Exile 2 have the same mouse movement and attacking or will it allow for WASD?

I really want to play, but the frustration of not being able to control my character to a level I find acceptable is... not happening. I've tried for many league and.. yeah.

How would i even aim with WASD?

Is this a serious question?...


You aim with the mouse and move with WASD?.. Like.. 99% of the games out there?


Are you trolling?

1. Enable attack without moving on your attack skill.
2. Set left-click on walk or guard skill if you prefer. But not on default attack.

I never understood the WASD in ARPG's. It's awkward in the isometric camera view.
But, I feel like I can understand you, since I also have my weirdness: I can't play with a controller, even if the game was designed around it.
