Do you use WASD or the arrow keys? Why is WASD even an option? Why are arrow keys so superior? Questions like these and more can be posted here, as well as lots of answers! Give your opinion on these basic movement controls below!

I hold the mouse with my right hand, so I prefer WASD in games that require the mouse. I find that using arrow keys in such games is awkward and irritating because I have to bend my left arm to reach them. On games that don't use the mouse, I prefer using the arrow keys with my right hand because I don't have to rest my thumb on the spacebar as with WASD. In other words, basically the same opinion as the preceding poster.

I like when you can use either to move in a game because it makes it more convienient.

I go with WASD. And like Ace said. I'm right-handed. Arrow keys is weird. WASD gives you a better feel.

I usually prefer Arrow Keys, but also always serve to move WASD.

I used to prefer the arrow keys to WASD, but I'm starting to use WASD more frequently. It probably just depends on the positioning of my chair; if I'm positioned closer to the keyboard, it feels strange using the arrow keys, but if I'm further away, WASD does.

Wasd for games that use the mouse. For games that don't, arrow keys.

I prefer the WASD keys because there are more options for useful keys. for instance Q and E for switch weapons, R for reload, f for flashlight ect. I can see why allot of people would prefer arrow keys because they're right handed or something but i always use the WASD keys naturally because i do allot of other PC gaming.

I`m right-handed, so arrow keys make me personally feel more comfortable, but I can see how a left-handed person would use WASD.

Il giocatore che ha più esperienza nel gioco vince e non dipende se con arrow keys o con WASD!
