Comment on What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves?

One thing, and it’s likely just an oversigt, but controls. With Consoles being the computers that everything is designed for, the lack of proper controls for Mouse & Keyboard have become a bit of a nuisance.
Normally, it’s not a big deal. You just configure them yourself.
But it did irk me some when I gave Cyberpunk a go and tried to switch the Interact/select button from (F) to (E) and it didn’t move both functionalities. Now (E) was Interact, but in menus it defaulted back to (F) as if menu select was apparently a different function.

Alternatively, when the console control scheme is tight and well made but the PC controls are ASDF + whatever random keys spread at opposite ends of the keyboard.

Yup, it’s a peeve. I don’t know why the buttons just get thrown onto the keyboard with a shovel.
Who thought crouch belongs on © and Interact goes on (F) or even (X)? I get (F) if the game has a peek-mechanic, but most don’t.
Just use (E). And crouch & sprint has always been on (Ctrl) & (Shift) respectively. It’s the optimal configuration with WASD.
