    Why would you want it to? IMO a game where you're moving your character and aiming a cursor to fire is much more suited to keyboard and mouse than any other controller. Plus PCs are way more cutting edge than consoles these days. Heck, PS4 and Xbox are now just PCs with limitations on what controllers you can use (They both have AMD64 chips that could just as easily run a PC).

    You'd almost wonder if the mannequins will be an unlockable or hidden char. They'd have no backstory, but would be funny to see!

    That would be cool! Preview best armor on character *take screenshot*, zoom in, show off yourself with best armor ever.

    That would be cool, maybe to unlock when you beat final boss? Or, maybe you should just be able to craft it as a vanity item or something and put it on.

    Better then no teasers! Then you will just have to wait with absolutely nothing.

    I keep seeing these little golden pixel icons in your screenshots. Would this be the money that players use?

    It depends on your graphics card.

    I don't have an uber GPU, a moderate 7770. looks like I will have to see. if there is an on/off I'll do some tests.

    No, it's just the difference in how GPUs handle DirectX and OpenGL. Some may find better performance using DirectX than they would OpenGL. Typically, if you have a mid range or higher card, you should notice more performance out of DirectX. Also, OpenGL is more used by other OS.

    It's not a big deal when you look at it from the larger picture I suppose, but more options never hurts.
