Wow, I only now realize that there are people for that it feels weird to play with a keyboard + mouse certain games, for me it is really weird to play shooters with a controller

You're just going to have to adapt to the differences. I felt the same way about playing Diablo 3 with a controller on my buddy's PS4 back when it came out, having only ever played Diablo and Diablo clones with M&KB on PC before.
I switch between pc and my steam deck to play Diablo 4. I like it very much and when I use one or the other I'm very quickly adjusted to the different use.
On PC I move my skills to asdf, potion on g. I used to use the spacebar for forced standstill, but now use it for dodge. This way I can keep my hand on the keyboard for doing most things in the game.
Middle mouse button to open inventory, side button 4 to force and button 5 is for my escape scroll because I play hardcore.
I also made the ingame cursor bigger through settings, so it's easier to track it in busy areas.
Steam deck is makin me like the controller more. Just more fun.
First diablo I play with a controller.
It's pretty good. But I get annoyed by the targeting, middle of a big batte?
Let's shoot that barrel off to the side instead of the mobs in front of us!
I don’t think there’s many classes that benefit from mkb over controller. Maybe some of the necro builds?? Back to your question though, I make left click “move only” because I hate attacking mobs when I’m trying to reposition.
I switched to controller recently because of this and not being able to stand in place and attack without moving.
I honestly feel controller is a lot more enjoyable. My only gripe is navigating the inventory but it's such a non issue when your mouse is right there.
maybe it's too late but as with all other games of this type: holding shift let you attack without moving, even when there's no enemy in range
I actually tried this and it didnt work.
I played a lot of similar games and they all have that. I was surprised Diablo didnt. Maybe I disabled it?
