I remember my friend bringing over his Xbox and playing Halo for the first time. I was constantly looking down at the ground while he was pistol sniping me across the map. Figured it out eventually.
Mouse and Keyboard superiority!!!
A mouse? For shooters?!?
I definitely still played Quake with keyboard only and having it automatically look up or down on ramps.
I think during playing Jedi Knight I started using the mouse and having the revolutionary idea of using the numpad for movement and the surrounding keys for important Force powers. Because that was so much better than using the arrow keys.
No idea when I switched to WASD.
Mouse and keyboard has never felt right for most games for me.
I came up on pads for everything, and still do it for stuff like the Arkhams, Silksong, and various forms of platformer, but FPS? Once you’ve mouse aimed, the joypad just feels clunky.
Seeing people play something like Assassin’s Creed on mouse and keyboard is just wild.
Haha that was me!
I grew up on it. I even played 2D platformers (emulated) and fighting games on it.
Only in the past few years have I gotten used to a controller. Mostly because Sekiro was kicking my ass and when I whined about it, the internet made fun of me and I finally bought a USB controller.
I’m still trash though I got mods to make me near invincible.
