Am I the only one not being able to use a controller in first-person games that usually require a mouse to look around / shoot / etc?

This is the reason I avoided buying and playing FPS games or ie Portal, BotW, etc. I find it clunky and first game I tried with sticks on the controller I dumped after the first 10 minutes and switched to playing on a PC, regretting spending the money.

I just prefer scrollers or fixed-cam games for this reason.

Maybe I’m old, but I don’t get the 30-minus year-olds being so agile with it.

Do you have any tips on improving myself on this?

    I’m terrible with aiming things with the controller. Motion controls for aiming Link’s bows does help quite a lot. It feels pretty natural after a bit. But I’ve been playing shooting games on PC since 2013 so a mouse just feels so much better for aiming. I suppose if I had been big into CoD and Halo 15 or 20 years ago, I’d be much better at using sticks to aim.
