Every time someone brings up a controller vs mouse and keyboard, most of if not all comments will push towards the OP to “switch to mouse and keyboard” because “it’s better!”
In my eyes, the person is already accustomed to controller, they’re used to the sensitivity, and if not it’s a quick change.
If they’re going to get used to mouse and keyboard they need to:
-
find a reasonable mouse
-
find a reasonable mousepad for their situation
-
find out if they’re a wrist aimer or an arm aimer
-
make sure their windows mouse sensitivity is set to 6/11 for some reason otherwise everything else will be messed up
-
find their “optimal sensitivity” many of which tutorials are (subjectively) hard to find (the good ones)
I’m both a controller and mouse and keyboard user but I find it easier to aim with a controller. It feels natural.
I don’t think anybody actually hates on you for using a controller on a computer. Whatever input you like is fine. Have the best experience you want.
The only issue is in competitive games, where everyone has to have the same playing field, nobody with an unfair advantage. Then a controller without aim assistance, put you at a severe disadvantage. Which is why people for cross-play games recommend the keyboard and mouse to be more competitive.
