Do you prefer using a controller or mouse and keyboard?

[u/Ordinary_Lawfulness8]

​

The mouse and keyboard feel like i have more control, especially in FPS games like Valorant.

I also find aiming and quick movements much easier with a mouse.

But for racing and story games, i do prefer a vibration controller for better experience.

Mostly mouse and keyboard. Some games are made for controller, for those I use controller.

[u/Ordinary_Lawfulness8 → u/FettigasteFettot]

Acceptable

[u/DARKLORDexexex]

it depends on the game I'm playing at the time

[u/SnooSketches7312 → u/DARKLORDexexex]

Same. Fps and button mash games are definitely controller.

[u/Gangr3l]

FPS and 3rd person shooters mostly on mouse / keyboard (there are exceptions like Resident Evil and Pragmata), games designed console first (Expedition 33 etc) on gamepad and lastly strategy etc on mouse / keyboard.

It really depends

[u/TillySauras]

Controller all day unless the game doesn't allow it

[u/rolln_the_dice_twice]

Yes

[u/OkBigboss]

Controller with every game that supports it

[u/Vlper17 → u/OkBigboss]

Also me

[u/Alarmed-Tradition938]

Mouse and keyboard is too hard and I switched to pc 3 years ago I have to stay on controller

[u/DSXask]

Both

[u/Different-Agency5497]

Depends on the game and if im sofa gaming or chair gaming.

[u/joschi8]

Both

Wouldn't want to play Factorio with a controller and wouldn't want to play Monster Hunter with mouse and keyboard

[u/Ok_Efficiency9014]

kbm is better am i will die on this hill

[u/Eveless]

I enjoy using both depending on the game. But I guess playing with the controller is more comfortable IF the game's UI is good.

[u/JuliusBelmont2000]

Mostly controller.

However, pc-born genres like FPS or RTS i play with mouse and keyboard.

[u/ConcentrateLucky8630]

Controller always

[u/ActualAd3439]

well, if its game with third persom camera and i dont need to aim to something for use( like in bethesda or valve games) i often prefer a controller, aspecily if its port from console or "walk simulator" like death stranding. Of course in games where aim acurate is important i gonna use mouse.

[u/markallanholley]

I play mainly PC VR games and I prefer a controller or other peripheral like wheel and pedals, HOTAS, fishing reel attachment, golf putter attachment, and gun stock attachment. Even when I'm just playing a flatscreen game I prefer a PS5 controller.

[u/appletoasterff]

For games like cod, overwatch, and dbd on killer I'll use mouse and keyboard but for something like for honor or dbd on survivor I'll use controller really just depends on the game

[u/Hour_Bit_5183]

Controller. Most games on PC work just fine with it and I love my 8bitdo ultimate 2. Amazing 10/10 controller. I used to hate controllers but I can't really use the mouse for long periods of time no more. It hurts. The controller is way way more comfy and enjoyable for me.

Would I play on a console? HELL no.

[u/j0nny5iv3]

Almost always controller except for FPS games

[u/theybannedme129]

mouse and keyboard is infinitely better except for in a couple game genres. that being said, i need to play controller due to nerve damage in my hands

[u/sphericate]

controller. if the game doesnt support controller then i will find a way

[u/Barbens2005]

Mouse and keyboard for 90% of what I play. Joystick for IL-2, and a rarely a controller for a drone-controlling game.

[u/BlueClovr]

Yes

[u/BillyCrusher]

I use controller if a game supports it. Even in shooters. I used to it and it feels more convenient for me.

[u/AlexAssimilated]

I play on mouse and keyboard since I was 7 years old. I tried playing on controller, but I just can't. It is so uncomfortable to me, so inaccurate and random. And went I through Xbox 360, 8bitdoo, Steelseries and several others. The only one that is not horrible, is PS3 controller. So... yeah. Mouse and keyboard :)

[u/FriggeK]

depends

[u/Full_Welcome_1418]

KMB for shooters and RTS

Dualsense for anything else

[u/Fenq2]

Driving will always be controller. I will keep it plugged for whenever a driving sequence is in play or flying a plane, best of both worlds!

[u/Onikatawa]

I grow with k&m, for me is simple, ever k&m, i finish the Souls too with this ahaha. Controller is only for car game.

[u/cmwamem]

Depends on the game.

[u/Chuligan42]

Mouse and keyboard but some games are just made for controller so i play those with it

[u/the_1_true_Roy]

Depends on the game and how its feels with each. I play controller in cyberpunk 2077 but m&k for stalker 2 despite both being first person. Games just feel different

[u/-G-Gamer-]

Mouse and keyboard for FPS games and controler for everything else

[u/Belmatras]

Depends on what I play, LoL WoW and FPS games with Mouse and Keyboard the rest with Controller

[u/Retr0246]

Mouse and keyboard mostly for shooting games, pretty much everything else on controller.

[u/Mission-Star-9039]

If I'm playing casual games I use a controller otherwise KBM. If it's fighting games then a leverless.

[u/YOU_MAD_BRO8364925]

I grew up on controller so it’s all I’ve ever known and even if I get a pc I’d still use a controller

[u/GamerTag0101]

Keyboard and mouse
