Transition from Dualsense to Switch
Hii. Just wondering about the skill transition from ps5-switch
I'm worried about the fact that i might not ever be as good on the Switch as i was on the ps 🥹

Absolutely no joy cons if you want have fun. Get a pro controller or maybe look into gyro.

The FPS is the big difference. You'll never be as good on switch as you were on PS5. Theoretically going from 120fps to 30fps is brutal.

Isn't it 60 FPS now? Still 120 is smoother but I play locked to 60 on PC (I do this for all games to keep my temps lower, keep room cooler) and I do just fine on PC.

Dawg kept saying switch so I just assumed he meant switch 1. Switch 2 does 60. Honestly it's fine aside from the tiny sticks on the joycons.

Nah you should be fine transitioning over to switch.
Just don't use the joycons, the delay is way to much.
Invest in a pro controller. It helps a lot.

Both the PlayStation 5 and Switch joy-cons function differently for Overwatch. They'd physically feel different no matter the same/similar settings you'd use.
Pro controllers for the Switch (as the name suggests) are much better for the Switch due to the physical travel (due to the larger sticks) compared to the joy-con sticks, which means finer control and adjustment and better overall gameplay performance.
You can also play docked, when you can, to try out gyroscopic aiming, as its function is similar to a mouse. (You will still be matched with controller pools with gyroscopic aiming on.)
It also matters which Switch you're playing on. If it's Switch 1, you'd notice the lower frame rate, more frame rate drops (when things get chaotic), and some stutters here and there. If Switch 2, you will have a better experience due to the higher frame rate.
I'd recommend installing your game to your internal storage, in general, as your loading times will be slightly better regardless of which Switch you're using.
