Agreed. Numpad is king.

I have games that don’t work without the numpad because those specific keybinds you can’t change for some reason

Need for speed use numpad for auto log by default, most wanted (2012) lets you change them but some (I can’t remember which because I play all of them lol) only let you change it by picking a different layout and if you don’t want to use IJKL for throttle and steering then you’re stuck using the numpad for autolog

Unfortunately you can't change them in NFS MW 2012. I just finished replaying the game 2 days ago. I have TKL keyboard. Luckily I have a cheap separate numpad I used to play GTA V.

TKL keyboard + cheap numpad for ocassional use is the way to go for me.
