To add onto your point, a lot of games where mouse+keyboard isn’t the best set of inputs, neither is a controller. Things like flight games or racing games.
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 :)
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.

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
Yea I can see that -I suck so bad at souls games I tend not to play them much anymore

Controllers are definitely the best option for racing games.
nah, steering wheel is
If you like steering wheels more power to you, but I have no desire to play with one.
I don’t know how playing something like redout 2, screamer or inertial drift would go on a wheel(they all use twin stick driving).
Sim racing is definitely a wheel, but arcade racers are mostly controller for me.

I don’t know what that means.
