Help! Shuffling forward when fighting
   

I'm playing the demo right now (since I cant find the game in any shops here in the UK!), and am just getting to grips with the controls.

The biggest problem I have is that when swinging the weapon (using the left click - up key), I shuffle forward, as up is also the move forward key.
This is tactically disasterous!
I tried remapping the move forward key to something else, but then I could no longer swing the weapon - it seems that I have to use the move forward key for this whatever I map it to.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks for your time.

try swinging your weapon from left to right (using standard controls: left ctrl + left arrow or left ctrl + right arrow)

when you press the up arrow to swing your weapon, you are supposed to step forward; once you get used to the fighting system this can be rather good

I've read some more hints on swordfighting somewhere on one of these forums, but don't know where

You can find a fighting tutorial in JemyM´s FAQ on GothicDot.
The demo is the beginning of the game, with a virtual fence around the Old Camp.

The demo is just a part of the complete game... and I thought you liked the game? Could you be a bit more specific about the demo's 'stinking' aspects?

if it allowed you to go anywhere in the game, you wouldn't have to buy the full game; perhaps that's why the demo is limited ?

I tried the demo. You can go around the entire colony, but the SC, NC, some NPCs, and the other worlds are missing. If you go to the SC, you have a very high possibility of crashing because the structure of SC is missing.
