So don’t start saying that they were built for controllers because that’s a really old, clueless and incorrect claim. Because, and as we’ve said countless times, these third-person games can be fully enjoyable with keyboard and mouse. I seriously hope that FromSoftware’s next title, SEKIDO, will be more friendly to keyboard and mouse players. It’s just sad that FromSoftware never officially addressed this issue and we have to rely on mods in order to properly play the game with this specific control scheme.

Still, this is better than nothing and we are pretty sure that those using keyboard and mouse – instead of a gamepad – will really appreciate this mod. Other Souls games have also received this treatment, and between mods for Dark Souls and other FromSoftware games like Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, the community shows no signs of slowing down. After all, and as the title, suggests, this is a WIP mod. For example, there are some issues with currency of letters (the game shows Roll as “Q” for example) and some icons have not been changed yet. So I’m happy to report today that a mod is currently under development that will address this issue.Ĭreated by modder ‘kelester’, this mod for Dark Souls 3 changes the icons for the PC version. While the game runs great and is really enjoyable with keyboard+mouse (thanks mainly to the more precise camera movement), it only displays gamepad buttons, thus making menu navigation a nightmare.

My biggest annoyance with Dark Souls 3, as I wrote in our PC Performance Analysis, was the complete lack of proper keyboard on-screen indicators.
