Every time someone brings up a controller vs mouse and keyboard, most of if not all comments will push towards the OP to “switch to mouse and keyboard” because “it’s better!”
In my eyes, the person is already accustomed to controller, they’re used to the sensitivity, and if not it’s a quick change.
If they’re going to get used to mouse and keyboard they need to:
-
find a reasonable mouse
-
find a reasonable mousepad for their situation
-
find out if they’re a wrist aimer or an arm aimer
-
make sure their windows mouse sensitivity is set to 6/11 for some reason otherwise everything else will be messed up
-
find their “optimal sensitivity” many of which tutorials are (subjectively) hard to find (the good ones)
I’m both a controller and mouse and keyboard user but I find it easier to aim with a controller. It feels natural.
OP, if you mean aiming with sticks, consider how they work vs mouse. E.g. while you rotating left and at some momet decide to immediately rotate right, you can do this instantly with a mouse, but you have to go from the “rotating to the left” through “rotating to the left slightly”, “don’t rotate”, “rotate to the right slightly” in order to reach the “rotate to the right” phase. Yes, various games and control schemes can reduce the impact of this lag, but ultimately this lag is unavoidable with sticks, and the mouse scheme doesn’t ever need any corrections for the similar situation. It only ever suffers from broken or forced acceleration settings in some games.
