@amy I used arrow keys for -years-, but have more recently started transitioning to WADS. It took a lot of getting used to, but I feel like it's a bit more comfortable?

@Chel @amy i'm right-handed, the first few shooters i played predated Marathon and thus predated mouselook, and back then the numpad was a pretty common option for movement controls

@Chel @amy i feel like numpads are on notice these days even more than F-keys

most laptops don't have them, and the last three keyboards i bought had detachable or separate wireless numpads that i have never used

Surface Go arrow keys
MacBook Pro arrow keys
Chromebook arrow keys
