I’ve been doing a fair amount of gaming lately on a gaming PC. I found using keyboard / mouse as controllers kind of awkward at first, though I’ve mostly gotten used to it. Still, I’m wondering if a more classic controller might make the gaming experience better / more enjoyable / more ergonomic. But then, I wonder, is the experience worth it to have to relearn controls?
I’m thinking of something like this one:
I’ve read different things: that some PC gamers PREFER the keyboard / mouse combo every time, or that it depends: some games played on PC are better with keyboard / mouse, but others are better with a controller.
How’s the latency with a wireless controller? I’m not dead-set against a wired controller, but I’d like the freedom to be able to lean back from my desk without being tied to a cable.
So what say you, PC gamers-- keyboard / mouse, controller, or it depends? I’ve been playing a lot of Fallout 4 lately, to give an idea of what type of gaming I like. What about factors I might not be considering, like haptic sensing-- the controller vibrates if I get shot or something nearby explodes, right? Does that add to the game, in terms of adding immersiveness or helpful feedback, or is it just a gimmick really?
