Comment on 3rd-person shooters optimized for controllers?

Every person who games on a PC has a keyboard and mouse available to them. If 15% of those on average choose to use a controller instead that’s a lot of people who are more comfortable using that than keyboard and mouse.

No. It might simply be that people prefer using a controller for specific games, which is a very reasonable explanation if you’re familiar with video games. The statistics says nothing about this because it’s too general.

  So you could say, it’s more comfortable for some to play those games with a controller…

    This is in general and not specific to any game… There exists a myriad of people who are comfortable with using mouse and keyboard while still preferring controllers for some specific games. You should try to better your reading comprehension.

    My reading comprehension? Please show me where I said anything that contradicts that.

    Some games literally don’t use a mouse. For instance Baba Is You or The Binding Of Isaac or Shank would, at best, use the mouse for menus. You could play them exclusively with a keyboard but 1) you’re giving up analog input, and 2) unless you have a gaming keyboard, some of those games will have horrific keyboard ghosting especially if they have any sort of combos like Shank does.
