Will it be possible to remap the keys for season 2?

I have only my right arm and therefore cannot use a controller. I like to remap keys to the numpad on my keyboard as it means I don't have to reach across my torso to access the WASD keys. I enjoyed season one of Walking Dead but I found the QTEs overly difficult as I had to twist myself to get to the Q and E keys.

Can you please include the ability to remap the controls to the numpad. I'm sure the left-handers of the world would thank you as well.

    I don't think they will since the game is most likely coming out this week.
    Sorry dude, I doubt they will since there are not that many keys in the game.

    Wouldn't it be awesome if they added that just for this dude?

    I don't have that issue, but having a remapping of the keys is essential for any game using the keyboard, and I was quite miffed when I realized I couldn't do that in TWD. Simply put, it's good customer care to ensure everyone can remap the keys to their taste and/or need like the OP.

    Funny, I remember this problem cropping up earlier, and when I said the same thing, I got a ton of down votes...

    No official word from Telltale?

    Well now that it is out, can anyone tell me if it's possible to remap the keys?

    did a walker bite your left arm?

    No, a Taliban IED did.

    This is definetly a problem that needs to be resolved. Rebindable keys should be a requirement to every game, no matter how minimal the controls are.

    I'm guessing by the indication in your response that it is not possible to remap keys? Can someone please just confirm or deny this definitively for me? Thanks.

    Personally, I missed the 1,2,3,4 hotkeys for the dialog options.
    used to press the numbers only, now need to use the mouse...

    Hey man, I've already posted this long time ago but there a few things you can try to make your time easier playing games :

    • Xpadder if you're using like me an Xbox360 controller, it will let you attach any keyboard button to the controller's buttons. Like X button on the controller becomes the Q on your keyboard and so on.
    • Auto-Hotkey is exactly the same except you can change keyboard/mouse buttons to any buttons you want. Like putting the Q button on one of the numpad keys !

    I think you should give these a try ! =)

    I remember this being an issue for a lot of people during season 1, I remember a lot of complaints from the left handed people the most though.

    Rebindable keys is a necessity in any game and the fact that this was brought up during season 1 and this still has not been paid attention to really irks me.

    OK, for the love of God, can someone please just tell me if it's possible to remap keys or not?

    Not, unless they came out with a patch or update since I last played it.

    You should contact Telltale directly, instead of going to the forums.
