I came up on pads for everything, and still do it for stuff like the Arkhams, Silksong, and various forms of platformer, but FPS? Once you’ve mouse aimed, the joypad just feels clunky.
Mouse and keyboard has never felt right for most games for me.

KB&M with Arkham games was my jam! Now that I’m better with a controller, I can see why people like it.

Seeing people play something like Assassin’s Creed on mouse and keyboard is just wild.

Haha that was me!
I grew up on it. I even played 2D platformers (emulated) and fighting games on it.
Only in the past few years have I gotten used to a controller. Mostly because Sekiro was kicking my ass and when I whined about it, the internet made fun of me and I finally bought a USB controller.
I’m still trash though I got mods to make me near invincible.

It’s better for FPS games and worse for action games.

Don’t forget about RTS, MMO and some CRPG.

And fighting games

I don’t know about that, I wouldn’t want to play a fighting game with standard keyboard. An ergonomic keyboard could work though. FIn any case from what I’ve seen those guys either play with a gamepad or an arcade stick.

It’s not worse for action games if you get good.
