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.

    Or even better, any cheat mod. Mods are cool if they add to gameplay. But a real player doesn’t need any mods like aim assist, see through walls etc.

    If you can’t play without a cheat mod, then you aren’t playing, you’re just being a dick.

      Sorry I’m not sure I follow you here. Why are you talking about cheats?

      Is this about “PC gamers” using cheat tools in online games? Because there will always be cheaters and the platform/controllers used have nothing to do with it. If people on consoles could use cheat tools, there would be some that do.

        They seemed to think that aim assist is a cheat (like it is in some games). Igorant to the fact that it’s built-in where controller is supposed to be used
