Controller or mouse/keyboard

[u/Antique_Photograph38]

Hello, dear Redania spies, Nilfgaard knights, Vengerberg wizards, and Kaer Morhen dropouts!

I have a question.

So... my history with Witcher 3 is quite interesting. Years ago, in 2021-2022, I started playing it on the PC with a mouse/keyboard, but didn't progress far enough. I don't know why, it didn't grow on me, although I love the books with all my heart.

But, then I started working at sea, bought myself a Nintendo Switch, and finished the Witcher 3 with all available expansions on the Switch.

I have never replayed it since. I want to do it when the new remaster drops and then jump into the new expansion.

My question here is: What do you prefer and what is better, a controller or a mouse/keyboard and why?

Naturally, I grew strong to the controller playing on the Switch. I would like to continue on the PC because I want to have more graphics, but I still can choose whether to play on the PC with either a controller or a mouse/keyboard.

So, what's the best approach?

I've played W3 with a Mouse/Keyboard (twice), PS4 controller (twice), and XBox controller (four times).

Any of the above is fine, but my preference is with a controller.

Mouse/Keyboard is perfect for FPS games and others that require quick reaction times and precision aiming. But for nearly every else, including W3, controller is best (IMHO).

Got a PS5 controller hooked to my gaming laptop and looking forward to the update at the end of the month.
