I don’t feel comfortable using a mouse and I have no interest in working on my mouse skills. I play all of my games with either a controller or a keyboard, and I’m looking for 3rd-person shooters I can play with a controller.

I’m mainly interested in action games. I’m OK with a world with gated areas a la metroidvanias/soulslikes, but I’m not interested in full-on open world or narrative-driven games.

Examples of 3rd-person shooters I enjoyed playing with a controller: Gungrave, Vanquish, and Evil West.

Examples of 3rd-person shooters I don’t enjoy and have no interest in: Uncharted, The Last of Us, Red Dead Redemption, Dead Space, Control/Alan Wake, or GTA.

I mainly play on PC, Steam in particular, but I’ll boot up emulators if the game is worth it.

    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.

        You said:

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

        Please explain how people preferring to play some games with a controller is related to people who are uncomfortable with using a mouse at all.
