specialkid8 04/19/24 1:49:51 PM #1:	I've been on PC for about 3 year now but still use a controller for everything that will allow it. But any time I try to use a keyboard it's just universally awful. It's unintuitive, you have to use your movement fingers for lots of other actions, bending your fingers in weird ways, mouses are finicky, sensitivity always feels way off, and it just plain hurts my hand and wrist.

Bokothechoco2 04/20/24 11:55:34 AM #41:	specialkid8 posted... It's unintuitive, you have to use your movement fingers for lots of other actions, bending your fingers in weird ways This is how I feel about controllers. Claw grip was extremely painful for me, and my fingers would hurt for days after playing on controller for some games. I still prefer it to KB+M though for most games. Full keyboard is my preferred input, but a lot of games just refuse to design controls for it. I've gotten used to KB+M for some games, but I still dislike it for the most part. <cite>Bokothechoco2 posted [p:980008217] in How the he...

Newave 04/20/24 1:09:03 PM #45:	always hated it but I got used to it in the 90s when PC games universally didn't have controller support, so it was either get used to it or don't play all those games I wanted to play, so it was a necessary evil these days I try my best to circumvent the use of mouse and keyboard as much as possible when I play on PC thankfully there are a handful of helpful tools that have come along since the 90s to help with that, like USB converters for PlayStation and PS2 controllers, newer PlayStation systems having controllers that already use USB natively and standalone programs like joy2key that can map and calibrate mouse and keyboard input to controllers even with all that it sadly doesn't always work, but I can live with a small handful games not having as good controls are they could --- Kill the legs first, that's an ironclad battle tactic! <cite>Newave posted [p:980009062] in How the he...
