Runescape Needs Keybindings

[Fast Don't Lie]

And no, the F keys (I use the F keys whenever I can because I think clicking is nooby) do not count, since you can't use WASD as the camera keys. In my opinion, it's fucking stupid. I hate having to click everything, and it doesn't help that Runescape is completely based off of RNG. Please just give us a keybind interface so I can bind my prayers, spells, etc to whatever I want. -_- And if keys are a problem because of the chat, make it so that you have to hit Enter to type. Opinions?

Ya I'm mad. Problem?

Runescape IS clicking. Anything else and it wouldn't be the same. </3

That would be awesome so I could bind my food and weapons.

It needs a key to talk though, maybe "t".

This isn't World of Warcraft, it's RuneScape. Runescape = clicking.

Tbh it would separate the noobs from the pros. I truly think there is little skill (mostly luck) involved in RS anyway. There's nothing wrong with keybinds?

This would be too much like other games. This is how Runescape is and it will stay.

I've always pondered on RuneScape being first person and using the arrow keys to move, but if they did that it would never be the same unless they put it so you can choose to play like that. I don't know... Just an idea.

I just want to replace the arrow keys with WASD so I can move the camera with WASD instead of the arrow keys, not use WASD/arrow keys to move around. =P

Clicking also forces me to tunnel vision. It's lame. :\

Actually, Runescape is in the process of making their movement possible by using the arrow keys like WoW. It will be optional.

They would have to completely change the games movement for that. But it would be better imo.

They are planning on it already.

Also, they are removing squares from the game. You will be able to run in circles.

It's not 100% right now, but they announced this as a project.

Exactly what I was thinking. It would definitely make pking easier too.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind having key bindings fully customizable. I would definitely set mine to the Enter key. Anyway, I think key bindings are essential in any game. And of course it'll be easier to PK, because once you adapt, you'll become much faster at it. I don't care if this creates a disadvantage for people who refuse to accept this change (if it ever does happen), because then you know that they're not really good gamers, if you will. If they don't want to use key bindings, so be it, and if they cry about it, that's their own damn problem.

In my opinion, a game is meant to be challenging and fun, and to be honest, clicking is neither challenging nor fun (neither is skilling up, but that's the fundamentals of RS). For crying out loud, I can even play the game with one hand.
