Keyboard and mouse vs Controller

[Chris]

Which feels the most responsive?
(ei: controller felt more responsive in dark souls the k+m)

[Eclipsis Tenebris]

I prefer Controller... but then again, I say that for everything...

Keyboards were never meant to be used to control games... and it shows.

I haven't tried controller but kb+m works perfectly. If you don't like controllers you won't have an issue.

KB+M all the way ! have you tried looking around with a thumbstick ? HAHA, gamepads are for racing games and thats about it, the mouse is meant to control camera.

the only thing im not liking about using a controller is the slow camera speed and trying to wrap around horizontal bamboo poles

[YellowAfterlife]

Controller is easier for wrapping around poles (doing circles with the analog stick instead of having a small finger dance on the keys).

Mouse is easier to rotate the camera around with, following the system-set sensitivity.

Since the game allows to input with both sources at once, I assume that connecting a Switch' joycon would allow you to move the character with the analog stick while using the mouse for camera rotation and grip. Could be cool.

Regardless, neither of input sources is at a disadvantage in the game, so it probably comes down to a thing of preference.

Thank you for that bit of information.

I want to buy the game because i immediately fell in love with it's design when i saw the first few videos of it some time ago but i can't use a gamepad comfortably so i pass on all games that lack proper controls.

He probably never used a good keyboard before. The difference a hundred bucks make is astounding. I play almost everything with kb+m, except simulations. (wheel+pedals+shifter+diy handbrake for driving and hotas for flying)

You don't have to spend a lot of money to see that keyboards are fine for gaming. The most important detail really is how well the game's controls have been designed, with any input device (designed for gaming or not) being only as good as a game allows.

Any cheap, decent brand keyboard will do. Professional eSports players will tell you otherwise, but then, they do have sponsors to please. ;)

Sure but i can't go back to rubberdome. I had a lot of cheap keyboards and then i spend more than usual and get something that feels just perfect. MX Browns FTW: ;)

Mechanical keyboards are certainly very nice to type on.
