'Compact' keyboards are like normal boards, but without the Numpad, in which case it uses ASDW to move with, and to input text, you merely hit the spacebar, which changes the letter keys from shortcuts to text input. 1) Changing the control scheme! (the terror!) Buried in the FFXI config menu (in game) is a spot (whom's location escapes me at the moment) where you can switch the keyboard from 'full size' to 'compact'. Fortunately, these challenges aren't insurmountable! There are a variety of solutions to accommodate even the most D-pad addicted adventurer out there! Which I will list from most drastic to most comfortable. Save yourself the X-ty bucks a controller would cost!
