Do you prefer playing with Keyboard or controller more, and for what type of games? (lemmy.ca)

When I used to play GTA V, I would use both.

My controller sat on the desk in front of the arrow key cluster of my keyboard, so I could run around in first person and cap some fools with KBM, then picked up the controller for driving.

I started playing GTA V with a controller, but was really confused how difficult the boat trailer chasing mission was. After almost 1 hour, I switched to KBM and finished it first try.
I still prefer controllers for most games.

Same. I also play Cyberpunk that way. Driving cars without the ability to control the speed is just a PITA. A binary input doesn't cut it for me there.

OTOH aiming with anything but a mouse is also a PITA. Stuff like weapon switching also works better with dedicated keys vs a weapon wheel.

Now that I write it... all I would need would be one or two analog sticks/keys and I wouldn't need the controller at all. It's mainly the analog triggers that I need.
