    A mouse? For shooters?!?

    I definitely still played Quake with keyboard only and having it automatically look up or down on ramps.

    I think during playing Jedi Knight I started using the mouse and having the revolutionary idea of using the numpad for movement and the surrounding keys for important Force powers. Because that was so much better than using the arrow keys.

    No idea when I switched to WASD.

      A lot of games have aim assist with controllers. I’m currently playing Read Dead Redemption 2 and when you aim with a controller, it auto locks to their body.

      I noticed that with a bunch of games when I’m playing on the Steam Deck.

      JK 2. Mouse wheel up and down for push and pull, click for choke. Others can be keys.

      Next you’ll be telling me you missed tank controls in games. Why strafe when you can slowly rotate to turn?
