Am I the only one not being able to use a controller in first-person games that usually require a mouse to look around / shoot / etc?

This is the reason I avoided buying and playing FPS games or ie Portal, BotW, etc. I find it clunky and first game I tried with sticks on the controller I dumped after the first 10 minutes and switched to playing on a PC, regretting spending the money.

I just prefer scrollers or fixed-cam games for this reason.

Maybe I’m old, but I don’t get the 30-minus year-olds being so agile with it.

Do you have any tips on improving myself on this?

    I’ve found gyro makes it way more tolerable, it’s basically impossible to use a controller without it.

      I’m still trying to get used to gyro. I definitely see the value in it, I’m just not seasoned enough to use it well yet.
