Exactly, honestly fighting games are the only genre I can think of where a controller is better than keyboard/mouse.. maybe platformers?

Edit: again this is my personal opinion. I knew a guy back when lan parties were still a thing that would play shooters with a trackball and he would annihilate everyone. We all got our preferences :)

    Souls like games are pretty much always far superior on controller imo over m+kb. M+kb just feels janky for me in souls likes

    Yeah they don't make them with mouse and keyboard in mind or even pcs at all despite elden ring launching on steam at the same time. First version of Elden ring you couldn't two hand a weapon, not possible with the default key binding. Also first patch had the funniest item on it, something like "Fix to use the GPU".

    Any game that benefits from more then 8 directional movement is better on controller typically. Which is pretty much just third person action games with reflex based movement mechanics. So souls likes typically.

    I actually bought a Logitech trackball mouse shortly after I got my PC. My grandpa used to use one and I thought it might have been good for some gaming, but it had been too long since I last used it so it didn't feel right.
