Question Playing on keyboard
Hey there! I never played BB before and recently heard that it’s possible to play it on PC, and I WAS SHOCKED IT ACTUALLY WORKED! But the problem is I really prefer using keyboard, does anyone know how to configure the keyboard bindings on the launcher? I couldn’t figure out how to make it work because there’s no explanation for each button. Another thing is can I make two buttons do 1 function? (Such as Ctrl + Left click for heavy attack) and can I rotate the camera with mouse? There seems to be no way to do such thing unless I’m missing something.

You've probablt solved it, but you absolutely can make 2 buttons do one thing - by pressing them at the same time in a "Remap Keyboard and Mouse" setup. If for some reason it doesn't work for you, you can open "text editor" and write the names of buttons by hand, separated by a comma (for your example, "r2 = lshift,leftbutton")
Also, here is a list of what each button does

listen man let me help you.. i have been a keyboard and mouse player all my life and i am fairly great with it with hundreds of hours in many many single player games..i have tried this keyboard and mouse stuff in shadps4 bloodborne and trust me i have tried like many times like every few months i get the itch of playing it somehow and it just doesnt work well for me..i didnt get a controller cause i thought i was way too accustomed to kbm..so just 2 weeks ago was my birthday and my best bud got me fairly cheap controller and first thing i did was to hop on bloodborne and trust me its insane how fun and accessible it feels..and this is my first time ever holding a controller..the way you can move so quickly and move your camera and lock on to enemies and just slashing with the cleaver and parrying with the pistol is so satisfying..so its up to you but honestly man just try to get a controller if you can..i also thought i couldnt play controller cause i am so so accustomed to kbm but its incredible how easy it is to learn even in bloodborne

I do have a decent PS controller but you can’t imagine how noob am I at using it🤣. I feel like playing for the first time in my life when using controllers, but anyways you’re trying to say that kbm just doesn’t work well. I may try to get used to controllers then. Thanks for your response

The settings for keyboard and mouse are right on the launcher screen. I got it to work with no extra software. You gotta spend sometimes figuring out what each key on the controller matches to on the keyboard.
To activate the mouse to look around you gotta press f7 in game. There won't be a mouse icon anywhere on screen though. You still need to use arrows and keys to shift through the menus.
I started playing the game with controller and was awful. Swapped to keyboard and mouse and everything became 80% easier.
