Better with a controller?
I dunno using a mouse for semi auto repeaters seems hard when going for headshots when I can just let aim assist do all the work for me.

it isn't aim assist. It's a built in aim bot that gives perfect headshots. No real reason to not use a controller.

If I would use auto aim in a shooter I wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

it's a console game and desigend around controller input. never tried m&kb really but made some changes to my layout and other things such as sensibility.

Except preference. :D:

I personally couldn't possibly play any shooter with a controller. It feels awkward, slow, and clunky.

The main advantage of controllers is the analog input of the sticks and triggers.
However, since the horses are spurred in increments (as opposed to precision acceleration/braking in a car), this advantage is non-existant and aiming with weapons is much more precise with an analog mouse anyway.

So, the whole thing boils down to whether you want auto-aim or not.
Here's to say that the auto-aim does not aim at the head, but at the center of the chest.
However, people seem to quickly adapt by flicking the stick upwards a bit and consistently hitting heads.

Overall: Yes.

This game was designed to be played with a controller. The auto-aim gives you a huge advantage in short-to-mid range gun fights, which is what the majority of conflicts are in this game.

Mouse and keyboard is better for sniping and very long range battles.
