Keyboard and mouse vs Controller

[JEKapoor]

Everything EXCLUDING FPS games. Please give reasons. Consider games like AC, Batman Arkham, GTA, Watch Dogs etc.

Should be obvious.

I use keyboard and mouse for everything but racing games. But there is no better option, try it with both and see what you like most.

I guess you can do free aim with a mouse better than a joystick.

Keyboard and mouse all the way, I am terrible with controllers for looking around and such, a mouse is much easier and more accurate.

 

For racing games I prefer using a racing wheel + pedals.

For me personally I would use a controller for anything that has a moderate amount of driving in it, for example watchdogs and other games that are hack and slash style. While I would use a keyboard when playing an FPS or most other games.

 

IMO the advantages for each are

 

Controller:

Better movement control

Comfort

Fluidity

 

Keyboard/mouse:

Better control remapping

Accuracy(mouse)

 

 

Each has their advantages and I use both and for didecated racing games I will use eithe my controller or my G27, I refuse to use a keyboard for any kind of racing game.

the only time a controller is better is during driving games IMO.

in my opinion

I choose the controller that suits the game I am playing the best. I have a couple of gamepads and a racing wheel to go with my mouse and keyboard so I am flexible.

I grew up with a controller so I still love it. I find when a game uses a lot of buttons (like 8+) you lose track of where stuff is and have to move your hand into hard positions, especially for games where you might have to keep the W key pressed constantly.

Some games are made to be played on a controller (GTA, racing games, every Ubisoft game in existence #FuckUbisoft). It just feels better in those games. Granted some games feel like crap on the controller so it is good to have both. But personally i love my Mouse and keyboard.

Well GTA games are meant for keyboard and mouse, and so.......

Really? I would imagine they would be PC only then.

I personally prefer a controller, but my current keyboard is awful so we shall see once I get the K70 RGB what I like better.

Keep on saying that and maybe it will come true!
