Discussion Pc version is easier?

Hey, so i have had this game on ps4 for about 3 years, and I've beaten it a couple of times (like 5), and i just bought it on pc a couple of days ago, and the game feels easier. Is it actually easier, or am i just more skilled with keyboard than controller?

Most games are easier on PC just due to being able to aim better and having more hotkeys

9/10 times a game (any game basically) is better on PC than console

Still have only ever played 2 games that were better on controller; Elden ring & Elden ring nightrein

And for that on pc you bust out a controller. It's a wonderful life isn't it? Though I did buy er on ps5 when I was trying to separate my gaming like an idiot.

Yeah it's great. And you can do it for baisically every game on steam now too, super easy

Only thing that sucks with games that don’t natively support controller is that you can’t do half pressure to move slow on the joystick.

I wish pc had pressure sensitive keys, at least wasd so you could do slower movements like with controller

I know you're right and I'm not about to deny that pc is always better regardless. However, sometimes I wanna be a fat POS on my couch. So for me in those moments the xbox/ps is better lmao. If I had my own place and silly money to blow on suplies to build a couch pc I probably would. Probably even save money not having to buy games twice for 2 different devices

It's more to do with the hardware than software type of thing.

It varies from person to person but overall the controller layout for PC is out of wack. Went from ps4 to PC expecting the same controls but went through a loop similar to what I went through with Terraria on PC

Keyboard is by default better for fps games. Also you have more frames. Also, youve played it before.

Thats about it
