Yes. And they're already used for scrolling pages and moving the cursor and such.

How the fuck did WASD become the standard? 12-year-old FPS fanatics?

I've put up with using WASD, although some keyboards are worse than others for it due to key alignment.

I play Ragnarok Online 2 which uses WASD movement.. but it also makes use of Q and E for running sideways, which is common in dungeons/raids to get out of the way of a boss attack.


The world could always use more heroes!

I'd rather use one hand for movement and the opposite hand for actions, though. The standard in the early '90s, and still used for gamepads.

I've never been able to get used to WASD-reliant games; I got used to the arrow keys early on and just got stuck with it.

I tend to get too confused for a lot of games with complex controls that also rely on high speed actions, anyway >_>
