        Hey Guys ,
        i have accidentally spammed the key assignment left click and now i can't change the key assignment can someone help me?

          Wish there was detailed descriptions of how and when to best use these abilities. There is absolutely nothing instructing anyone other than a base description. Love the game, the idea of it…. But what I do t love is the total lack of any tutorial. Just throw you in there and let you bang your head against the wall until you give up.

            it should be noted that moving any action or inventory icon buttons around the character hotbars is effectively impossible and attempting it will just aggravate you. There is no keybind to change this- it appears to be intentionally designed to be as infuriating as possible.

              There's at least a quarter of these alleged keybind options my game is missing. Like a keybind for toggling light source (instead of manually having to press it every time I want to swap to my torch...). What am I missing here?

                Does anyone know how to use the highlight character (tilde on keyboard) on controller? Also is there a way to toggle melee/ranged weapon equipped on controller like there is by clicking those boxes on the kb/mouse UI?

                  Having dark grey text on a black background is a fantastic idea! Who needs to know what's this or that is for or how to use it. These devs are amazing.

                    Not being able to bind keys to the Custom action bar slots, and then filling slots with whatever suits the build for the selected toon, is just stupid and very 1990:s game design.

                    Sort of sad to have 120+ GB of amazing-looking game and lore being so crap to actually *interact* with. Clunky feel.
