    Was playing an FPS at a friend's house after 1.5 decades of Mouse and Keyboard gaming and noticed controllers are 1: bad for FPS and 2: worse than I remember.

    Or maybe I was simply better at FPS games when I was 16 playing Modern Warfare 2.

      I've seen strong arguments made that a gyro controller like the PS5 - possibly with a flick stick setup - is competitive with keyboard and mouse for FPS games. But it's also a different enough input style that your hundreds or thousands of hours of experience with other input methods doesn't transfer and you have to relearn from the beginning.
