I always play first person games with a mouse and keyboard (except for MS Flight Simulator 2020 which I play with a controller) and I almost always play third person games with a controller. Usually third person games are designed for controller anyway.

There are a couple of exceptions though. I play all the Witcher games with mouse and keyboard, same for the Max Payne games. Oh right, and I played the Kotor games with keyboard and mouse too. I definitely remember pressing X over and over and over again to twirl my lightsabre :].

Oh, oops, this is in the wrong section! Can a mod please move this over to Gaming for me?

I generally play with a controller on PC, except for first-person shooters. Third-person shooters, I go controller. Mouse and keyboard for strategy games and/or games that are UI-heavy during gameplay.

You might get more traction in the Gaming forum rather than Off-Topic.

It never even occurred to me that someone might try to play a strategy game with a controller on PC tbh . I'm sure someone who does that must be out there, though.

Mouse and keyboard, just as God intended. No exceptions for shooters, ever.

I finished The Outer Worlds 2 on a controller with zero issues. Thousands of hours in CoD made it feel second nature I guess

The whole battle between controller and mouse/keyboard has always been nonsense drama imo. One of my co-workers is a massive FromSoftware fan, yet he's never played Bloodborne simply because he can't use a mouse and keyboard

MKB for everything but fighters.

Some FPS games I play with KBM, others with a controller. I find controller way more comfortable and I really like how smooth the camera and character movement feels, the precision part is rough but it's something you can get used to.

I remember when I first started playing with a controller, jesus fucking christ, that shit was awful to get used to.

Depends on the genre! First person shooters I'll use keyboard and mouse, while slower games like a KCD2 for example I'll play with gamepad.

I usually prefer couch gaming with the gamepad. But FPS, strategy or CRPGs I usually play those on the desk with kb+m.

Only unwashed peasants use controller on PC, especially for FPS games. It is clear to me that their dirty hands are too jittery after they're done working and sowing the fields, so they are unable to appreciate the perfect precision that a mouse offers.

People who play with a controller are the same ones who pour their milk first.

this kind of anti-cerealite talk just can't be tolerated, mods! MODS!!

 

[Verchod]

If it's a fairly quick paced shooter, I'll use keyboard and mouse. But if it requires any stealth, I'll use a controller. I need analogue movement for stealth, keyboards won't cut it

MKB. Hate first person with a controller. It's like trying to look around with a neck brace on
