lol I remember watching video of uh, I think it was Brad Shoemaker from Giantbomb playing one of the challenge levels from Doom Eternal. Usually he's not very good at games but he likes Doom and he's definitely better at it than I'd be. Anyways, I'd never seen anything quite like that before in a modern AAA game. Incredibly fast, just a whirlwind of explosions and gore lol.
Definitely not my thing, but it's kinda amazing and cool that it got the green light to be made that way :]

Yeah I think back then they weren't still fully under MS umbrella. I have no doubt that they made Dark Ages way slower because of them, and such a shame because I really loved the fast pace of Eternal. Only game that's ever made me need to take a break in the middle of a session lol.

kb/mouse is the way god intended, but last ~decade got really good at aiming with controller (x360) so thats my primary now.
no aim-assist, always play on hard.
love analog movement + rumble too.
still surprised theres no rumble mouse--dont care if itd affect aiming a bit.

I mostly use M&K, but I wanna try the new Steam Frame controllers (gyro) for non-shooter games.

Immersion isn't the right word, but correlates with the idea I'm going after. Being able to modulate your movement speed is a core feature of sub-genres of first person games that put more focus on environmental story telling, stealth, puzzle solving, and such. Think Indiana Jones as an excellent example. Plays better on a controller because of its focus and pacing compared to, say, fucking Fortnite, which is acceptable on a controller but much better on M&KB.

The only games I'll use a controller for in PC are side-scrolling games, pure action games, and action rpg like FFVII Rebirth. But everything else like FPS, Resident Evil, RTS etc I use mouse and keyboard.

Why do controllers need aim-assist if they are the more skilled option?

How it plays better?? What is the advantage it offers?
His logic is the worse the controls are, the better is the experience as it is more difficult.

I think what
rodrigolfp
said is probably what he's trying to say. I grew up playing arena shooters on pc and was also in on stuff like Halo day 1. I can easily go back and forth and I would say MKB makes games way easier but that's due to inherent limitations on the controller side. I think it's much easier to be above average on mouse then controller so I guess if that's what he means I would agree with him I guess?
That being said I would never willingly play something like Halo or COD on MKB but I'd also never willingly play something like ARMA or Tarkov on controller.

Huh? lol. Your sentenced doesn't make any sense.
Controllers need aim assist because it take more skill to use them in a fps without.
MK has instant no skill point and click ability .. which again takes much much less skill than doing the same actions with a controller.
It's the whole reason an assists exist in the first place.

If it take more skill without assist, why use the assist then??

About to beat off
Battlefield was the only game where I was hanging on to kb+m. Gave that up a few years ago. Now all controller.

Are you guys slow or something?
The point isn't that taking more skill is better.. it's that it's harder to use a controller in a fps. They made aim assist to try to even the playing field with the much easier to use MK controls. It takes more skill for a person to play equal to person playing with MK. That's is a fact .. it's not debatable. It's been known for a long long time. It was a big issue when games started supporting MK in MP console FPS.
Hence (one more time so I don't get another retarded question. )
It takes much less skill to use a MK in a fps ... a genre that was literally built with MK in mind .. than it does to play a fps with a controller that is inherently harder to control with its slower non point and click nature... which is why aim assist was even created ..
