This game was never meant for the PC platform, it was not properly ported for the PC. The keyboard and mouse controls are awful. If you have a controller, use it. The game itself has a great story and it very compelling. Dark Souls II is easier than the first Dark Souls but still challenging. I would not pay full price for this game knowing what I do now. But if you can catch it on sale, and you have a controller, go for it.
