    Definitely agree. I used to be a KB/m only person, but have changed my opinion since using a controller for a while out of necessity. Some games are simply better with a controller.

    Some are much worse. FPS will never translate well to controller for me. No idea how CoD people play on console. It feels like trying to throw a ball with someone else’s hand by manipulating their elbow.

      The newer Doom games play well on a controller because precision movement matters more than precision aiming, so even on PC I play with a controller.

      Having an analog stick instead of WSAD makes the movement much more fluid, and a double-barreled shotgun, rocket launcher, or chainsaw don’t exactly require pixel-perfect aiming.

        Nowadays you can achieve the same with analog keyboards. Took a bit of getting used to having control over the speed/angle by how deep your pressing the keys but works great.

      Aim assist, generally speaking. That’s how they try and make it “fair” for console users.

        I’ve never played a game where aim assist was done well enough for me. It’s either too little or too much. That is probably me though.
