Keyboard controls are just fine. It seems people have problems with controllers.

Isn't it a sin to play Tomb Raider on a keyboard? What monster would do this??

Isnt it a sin against one's own intelligence to be dumbed down by a controller?

It's not CoD, it's a TPS action game - designed specifically for controllers for 20 years. Do as you will...monster.

Sarcasm is always family friendly, lol.
But for TPS games like this, I find gamepads much smoother and more comfortable, mouse and keyboard feel too....harsh on a game like this. Keyboards are the only way to go for FPS games imo, but these game types were always created with controllers in mind, and usually have a better flow with gamepads. WASD controls on this game would frustrate me beyond belief.

I kinda agree to be honest, I was just worried about aiming... I only used controllers for racing games, or games like witcher 3...
I will give it a try i guess

Here is my only gripe with controllers on PC, sometimes vsync can slow them down, and make response time frustrating. Personally, my gamepad has been perfectly fine with Tomb Raider, even with vsync on (I lock at 60 FPS). Shooting with the bow would be easier with a mouse, but the overal gameplay fits a gamepad really well. Honestly, whatever you start playing with on the game first, is likely to feel most natural. I have played TR games with a gamepad for 20 years, so swapping to keyboard would be murder for me now.

This game controls like Witcher 3, so if you preferred a controller there, you'll probably prefer a controller here too.

with this game is 100% up to you, if you like playing with a keyboard then keyboard is great, if you like using a controller then that is a great choice aswell, on my first playthrough i did keyboard and mouse because im more used to that, and on my second playthrough just doing sidequests and exploring im using controller, you could use both, just have a spot to set down your controller for when you get to a part where you have to aim

i played the witcher 3 with a controller and almost never using a controller, i only did because i went to my friends house and forgot my controller, but that game you dont need to aim really, just turn and swing

Or those who want to play on their oled tv and dont want to balance a keyboard and mouse on their lap yeah?

Anyone knows it should be played with mouse and keyboard.
Its the most superious way to play games and gives you a fluently aim unlike a controller.
I really dont understand why anyone would use a controller in a game where you need to aim and shoot?
.Its like having the desire to handicap yourself for no reason what so ever.
I can understand console players because they have no choice they are forced to use a controller but PC players should know better in a game like this and M/K has worked perfectly in the Origin TR Trilogy.

I play this game with keyboard and mouse, and that makes gunfights so easy it feels like cheating. Enemies either just stand there or run at me in straight line, making their cute little dodges when I aim at them. Game is definitely designed with controller in mind though, but PC controls make combat a tad easier. Puzzles, on the other hand, are harder to do with keyboard and mouse because game often restricts and "assists" camera movement, making me struggle with camera when doing all the climbing and jumping.
