Boons & Burdens

First problem I ran into with this game is the volume and volume controls. My mistake for leaving my headset / PC volume at 70%, honestly though, even if I'd left it at 50% that was still way too loud for me. Anyway, we're not off to a great start and when I reach the volume controls, I come to find there's only 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ deaf % and the craziest thing is based on how loud that start was, I was expecting to see the controls defaulted at 100% but they were actually at 50%, WTF? Last bit here is that 25% did not feel tolerable even with my PC volume down to 50%, I usually don't have to go further than that ... but here we are ... complaining about it on Steam ... for whatever it's worth. This game looks like it could be a lot of fun and I liked SOME of the UI options, the mouse cursors are really cute and a nice touch ... but then I reached control options. Lmao ... The next big thing I ran into was that I can't use back or forward mouse buttons as a keybind? RIP already, those are some extremely convenient and under rated buttons to be able to freely use as binds in many games IMO. Second thing I ran into is more along the lines of me and my preferred keybinds, ESDF instead of WASD. You literally cannot rebind the movement keys WASD ... this might not be an issue for many if not most players, especially those who would opt for a controller anyway ... but a game like this looks like heaven on Mouse & Keyboard to me ... too bad I've already run into two issues that make me go "Hmm, yeah, this is probably why they recommend a controller when you first boot up the game." which makes me feel like the developers are at least somewhat aware of the fact their keybind system is limited in actual functionality. Sure, I could play it with a controller. Or ... being disappointed already ... this game is going into the hidden pile and I'm moving on. This game could still use some love ... personally I wouldn't consider this finished.
