    The newer Doom games play well on a controller because precision movement matters more than precision aiming, so even on PC I play with a controller.

    Having an analog stick instead of WSAD makes the movement much more fluid, and a double-barreled shotgun, rocket launcher, or chainsaw don’t exactly require pixel-perfect aiming.

      Nowadays you can achieve the same with analog keyboards. Took a bit of getting used to having control over the speed/angle by how deep your pressing the keys but works great.

        You take my clicky discrete keypresses and I’ll cut you.

          Oh I miss my custom keeb don’t get me wrong, but for gaming it has been an upgrade similar to moving from 60hz to 240hz.

          Not having the actuation point set in stone but variable per key is a godsend and made wonder why it took so long to become more mainstream.
