Why can't I strafe with mouse and keyboard? - Input method for this game is garbage at best

Feels like this game was made for controller and not pc

I feel like I'm being forced to quit the game and either use a controller or just outright quit because of the input method.

WASD allows me to strafe. This is awesome. However W is ALWAYS 12 ocklock movement. W should be for moving forward in the direction my character is facing. This is incredibly counter intuitive and feels like I'm playing an inverted version of halo.

mouse and keyboard - NO OPTION TO STRAFE. AT ALL. I can't strafe left and right with D and A keys to raise my shield with this input method whatsoever. This is so incredibly frustrated I feel I have one option. Switch to controller or just outright quit the game. I am not playing a broken meta build and am actually having to fight bosses and deal with all the mechanics. I don't 1 shot bosses like the streamers do. I actually have to roll. I can't play the game effectively with the current input methods

HOW TO SOLVE THIS:
Make two keys for strafe left and right "a" "d". and preferably "s" for moving backwards. ACTUAL backwards. Not 6 ocklock on the map.

Input a method for ability to change camera angle. It's 2024. this third person wasd feels like trash. If I don't use WASD I can't strafe... I am forced to use a controller or just quit the game.


EDIT:
The only solution I found to make this game playable albeit switching to controller was to bind "evade" to my typical "w" or "forcemove" key and now wasd works as it should work. Granted I can't walk. I just roll in the direction I want. Slugggggggish game play but it's barely playable at this rate.
