Platform wars aside - genuinely curious what people here use and whether they think it matters for game feel.

My take by genre:

Keyboard and mouse is clearly better for:

• FPS games - mouse aim precision is simply higher ceiling than analogue sticks, even with aim assist
  
• Strategy games - clicking units, managing build orders
  
• MOBAs
  
• City builders and management sims
  
• Anything where text input matters
  

Controller is clearly better for (or equal):

• Platformers - analogue movement, face buttons in the right places
  
• Fighting games - many players prefer d-pad or arcade stick
  
• Racing games - analogue triggers for throttle/brake
  
• Souls-likes - designed around controller, camera control with right stick feels right
  
• Lying on the sofa - this is underrated as a use case
  

It depends:

• Action-adventure (Zelda-style, God of War) - controller feels more natural but both work
  
• RPGs - depends massively on the game, many feel designed for controller even on PC
  

Honest answer on "does it matter": In multiplayer games where you're competing against others, yes it can matter at high level. In singleplayer games, use whatever feels comfortable - the fun is not impacted by your input method.

What do you primarily use and for what?
