M&KB or controller?

Basically wanting to get a consensus on which is better.

It depends on each person's taste and the games: it's impossible to answer this question honestly, therefore you have to try and choose for yourself, no one can do that for you.

I haven't used any controllers for 35 years since I switched from TO9 to PC: only keyboard and mouse.

I'm constantly looking for new ways to play this game, since I love it so much, and just recently I started a playthrough using my Xbox controller on PC. I played HZD for the first time on PS4 several years ago, and let me tell you, this game was deSIGNED for a console. It feels much more fluid and comfortable using a controller vs. mouse and keyboard. Do you lose precision aiming, if you're like me and don't have much console experience? Yeah. But you make up for it by using more melee and less precision-based weaponry.

There's really no answer for that question. Some people prefer controllers. Personally, I despise them! I don't even own a controller and play every game with mouse and keyboard...

My personal key moment to this question was in the second Ori game. The escape run with the giant sand worm was just undoable for me with mouse and keyboard. Then I bought my first Controller (never owned a console after the SNES, yes, I'm that old), and it instantly worked for me.

My approach since then: If a game was developed for console, I'll use a controller. If its primarily a PC game, I'll use mouse and keyboard.

This game is all about targeting weakpoints. I'm not that great with a controller and I hate using aim assist or constantly relying on the bullet time mechanic so it's mkb for me.

controller for this game 100 percent, you can do advanced movement and combat techniques way easier then with WASD

[Skylite]

M&K for any game that puts me in the charge of the camera.

[Senki]

if you're good at aiming with the mouse then play with that, it's much better

noooo not rly

In GoT there are a few thread on steam and reddit.
A lot of ppls play games with K&M
for me its the same.
way more precise then with controller
For meele and range to 100%
With K&M you can def hit the enemy faster (not for all but for the most K&M users)

This kind of topic: keyboard or controller...

It's like asking people to definitively decide what’s better: dark or white chocolate, beans with tomato or cream, Fantasy or Sci-Fi, a bike or a car, holidays in the mountains or at the sea, Intel or AMD or Nvidia, spilling ink and wasting time or playing and enjoying the game as one likes or as one can.

Depending on the game, one type of input device may be more suitable than the other, but it will always remain relative to each person’s sensitivity and skills.

Just a never-ending debate since the dawn of gaming...

I'm pretty sure Arktix who does the widely acclaimed HZD and HFW tutorial and tips videos uses a controller, as the icons in his videos are almost all the PS5 controller button icons.

He used mouse and keyboard on his recent playthrough on UH.

My general rule is anything on PC that is a console port(IE made first for console), I use a controller. It feels like the game was built to be played that way.

Do you aim better with a controller, or a mouse? For me, M&KB, but it boils down to personal preference.
