Is there some sort of secret? No matter what sensitivity my mouse is set to I seem to get stuck when turning. On a controller I can turn completely in a circle, but not with a mouse unless i’m missing something. I’m willing to accept that I might be an idiot. But seriously how to people do it? It just feels so unatural. Sorry if this is a dumb question, because I think it’s a dumb question too.
You will get used to it if you keep playing, but it might never feel natural unless you use it exclusively for a while.
I’m a trackball + keyboard user so mouse + kb and controller both feel sort of almost right but somehow wrong to me
Also some genres lend themselves better to one or the other. I prefer controller for platformers and fighters, but prefer TB + KB for almost everything else

Yeah, I agree. I use a controller for platformers, fighting games and racing games. Also sometimes action RPGs- I’ve played Dark Souls with both input methods.
My only absolutely hard line is using a controller for any kind of shooter. I just can’t, and trying is a very frustrating experience.

This is how M+KB natives feel on controller.

Trackball gang! There’s dozens of us. Dozens!
Your numbers are growing! I’ve met one of you in the wild 10 years ago!
