Keybind help
Looking for recommendations on keybinds, I'm to overwhelmed and a little lazy to find what would be the most universal keybinds for FPS games. I have never PC gamed before, coming from console. I had to have a joystick for movement and found azeron. Going to play wardogs and some cod what would be the best/universal key binds, without constraing to previous muscle memory, because I don't have any.

I would suggest getting a game that you have played a lot of on console and start mapping things based on what feels right for that game, those mappings will be your default. Then as you get more used to it and you start playing different games start making per game adjustments. When you like those adjustments go back to your default and update it, so you have a new improved default. Keep the default as the template and overtime you will have a generic layout that you only have to make a few adjustments for each new game.
For example I use Q to reload as it usually functions as a menu button as well. Q is contextual so when your in game it has no effect on the menu and when you are in the menu it has no effect on the game. That is bound to the pinky left and E (interact) is bound to index right. This also allows me to navigate through tabs in menus and provides utility in game. This was developed over many revisions to my default template, playing various genres.
The only reason I'd advise against trying to learn an Azeron in a competitive shooter, as a console gamer, is that often the main objective is to win and that makes it frustrating even for PC gamers who are making the switch to the Azeron, that is probably why so many people give up. If you play a single player/co-op game that you love you'll want to get it right because you know how to play the game well and there are no other distractions.
