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 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 ( C) 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.
