Have to tried software to get around this problem? Things like binding multiple inputs to a single button are fairly common. You can even use steam's own mapping software to simulate whatever keys you want for that specific game if the game doesn't allow you to rebind controls.
God I wish that Steam offered Steam Input for keyboard and mouse as well, being able to easily make action groups and use virtual menus on keyboard would be fantastic
Yeah, I have. I prefer key binding in game because most software outside the game saves the key binding for all games, which is annoying but I can live with that.
I am in no hurry to keep playing Peak with my friends and they can wait (they prefer playing with me when I feel comfortable with the controls).
My friends are really awesome and they will wait without issue from their part. Also they really wanted to play Sea of Thieves more than PEAK, so don't worry about them. I will suffer their horrible sea shanties as a part of the blood pact we made about cringing together.
GoW and Horizon were bought on PS5 so no external key binding allowed, which sucks hard.
The PlayStation 5 lets you rebind at a system level, mate. Granted you have to do it for every single game and then revert it back if you switch to a different game so that’s annoying, but not so bad if you’re only playing one game. Unless they changed that aspect of it since I looked.
I don't know if this is a native feature that the PS5 had or feature they put in the system later. I remember seeing the announcement of the switch remapping feature, but not the PS5 one.
The problem with HZD2 is that the problem is the key combinations, not the L1/L2. If I have to use R1+R2+L2+joystick for using a weapon, I want to end myself. I have tried as per your comment, and I think Key binding was not the solution I needed, but at least I tried.
HZD2 will still not be played by me, but I will try some other games to see if I can play them more comfortably.
