I used to be kbm exclusive but there have been some pretty good controller improvements made over the years, things like hotkey layers in Skyrim UI mods or the final fantasy MMO giving dozens of unique hotkeys on a controller, and new hardware with back buttons and shoulder buttons that keep both thumbs on the thumbsticks. Can't beat mouse for precision, but there are tradeoffs for that.

Yeah my steam input configs are crazy

I have a whole system for desktop navigation which I've grown to really like

I've recently taken to using touchpad touch as a button chord modifier and it is soo nice.

I like playing shooter's with m&k, str games too. I know for example in Apex, lot's of pro players une a controller.

But 3rd person games feel somehow much better with a controller. I'm not sure how uncharted, or HZD would play on Mouse and Keyboard.

Mouse for aim, wii nunchuck for movement.

Steam Controller and Steam Deck converted me to controller. Trackpads and touch activated gyroscope are complete game changers. I still can't play first person games with a thumbstick though.
