onson Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Which do you prefer? Skyrim seems more tailored for the controller than Oblivion. Controllers are easier on the hands to me, but I love the precision and more hotkeys on a gamepad/keyboard. I hope there are a lot of hot key options for keyboard, I hate having to scroll through a spell list just to open a lock or set someone on fire.
lochlan1414 Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 xbox controller, ive used both but it feels better to me to do left hand, right hand with a controller
hejpadig Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) I'll play with mouse and keyboard, but will obviously try with a controller as well. :thumbsup: Edited October 30, 2011 by hejpadig
Zachcuden Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Controller until mods get added that require more buttons. Like deadly reflex or UVII in oblivion. But hopefully I get to stick with controller.
bkmorton Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Give me precision any day! Definitely mouse/keyboard combo.
Xochen Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 I bought skyrim for PC, and i will be playing it on my big ass samsung 46" LED flat screen, huge surround sound system and with a xbox controller, not ONLY because its freaking epic playing relaxed in my sofa, or that my screen is big, nor is it because of the awesome sound im going to be surrounded by, BUT also because of the freaking awesomeness that is the MOD community, making games like Elder scrolls last decades!
direelite1134 Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Im definitely going for the controller, im a/was Xbox player, much more comfortable in my opinion :)
Tweetybird Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 When I'm able to play PC I guess it will all depend on how the controls are/can be set up. I know I prefer playing Oblivion with a mouse/keyboard just because of how the hotkey system is set up but if they've changed it to make it easier on the controller I may use that instead.
Necris Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Mouse/keyboard. If i remember correctly they have stated that the UI will be different on pc, so maybe we won't have to suffer a lot. Having watched the xbox demos and the leaked intro, I can must say that everything seems so adapted to be played with controller, i wonder if bethesda can un-consolify it enough for it to work with keyboard/mouse.And if they don't, then i will be really opset and possibly demand a refund (or a free controler and wait while someone finishes bethesda's job).
onson Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 I always preferred a mouse and keyboard on shooter games, because I absolutely suck with a controller. But RPG's are not quite as reflex oriented, so a controller is not so bad. What about hand fatigue? Does anyone else seem to find controllers less fatiguing?
