Every time someone brings up a controller vs mouse and keyboard, most of if not all comments will push towards the OP to “switch to mouse and keyboard” because “it’s better!”
In my eyes, the person is already accustomed to controller, they’re used to the sensitivity, and if not it’s a quick change.
If they’re going to get used to mouse and keyboard they need to:
-
find a reasonable mouse
-
find a reasonable mousepad for their situation
-
find out if they’re a wrist aimer or an arm aimer
-
make sure their windows mouse sensitivity is set to 6/11 for some reason otherwise everything else will be messed up
-
find their “optimal sensitivity” many of which tutorials are (subjectively) hard to find (the good ones)
I’m both a controller and mouse and keyboard user but I find it easier to aim with a controller. It feels natural.
I’d like to try right a stick for movement and mouse for looking, but with a full controller that doesn’t really work. And so far I haven’t sacrificed a controller to saw off the right side so it can rest on a table with a similar hand position as a mouse.
My chair is kinda comfy and goes back a lot. I rest the controller in my lap or on my thigh. I have an extra table on the side for mouse/trackball. It’s like an extended armrest.
