2 ARROW KEYS PLEASE3 months

it's kind of bullshit how they don't have arrow keys available for pc players, not everyone is ambidextrous, or has the ability to control non-dominant hands when they have NERVE ISSUES THAT CAUSE THEM TO HAVE A TRIGGER FINGER WHERE THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO REST SAID TRIGGER FINGER ON THE SHIFT BUTTON. please be more accountable towards more disabled players, pls and thx. :3 <3

This is kind of false considering there are low majority of us uses arrow keys for movement. This only pertains to the higher majority of people using QWERTY, AZERTY, WASD, Numpad, IJKL, but never arrow keys for movement. We like to use something that is still familiar to us from when we were kids. But since new gachas are always arrow key less.
