I preferred it. Some people are more used to rapid movement types from a controller more than keyboard and mouse. I do use keyboard and mouse for some games, but for ones with this kinda feel in the way camera and moves work, I prefer controller. Monster Hunter is another I prefer controller on, as is FFXIV. Horizon Zero Dawn also.

Stuff like Mass Effect, Ark, Enshrouded, Deep rock, helldivers, dark tide are all mouse and keyboard.

People have different preferences and different muscle memory.

I think I like Hades more on controller too.

Me! Is shit until DS3 but I still prefer it than learning to use the joystick.
