The truth is, for me at least, my wrists aren't getting any younger and the controller is easier for me to use.

I do still use M+KB for games and activities that need it, but if there's a reasonable controller option I'm going to go that route.

I've been using controllers on PC since the Sidewinder days, I'm glad to see support for most controllers be basically perfect on Linux and pretty decent on Windows. MacOS still has a way to go with anything that isn't made by Sony, but it's not exactly a gaming platform.

I love gaming with controller on single player games, aiming with guns kinda suck but otherwise it's much better experience. and driving is so neat. but yeah steam controller support plays a major role in my controller usage

what I find funny is is a few years ago MnK was considered the optimal setup and controller players would complain about a disadvantage, but recently I've noticed this has switched and keyboard players are complaining about controllers being advantageous.

always been a controller player but never really cared either way about which one is better. but its sure more comfortable and easier to turn my brain off

Thank God, this changes everything

Edit; I attached a link to the best selling Bluetooth controller in the description.

I believe many users are going controller over mnk is because these game devs are making it extremely easy to aim using controller, which does not make it a fair fight against mnk players.
