For example most fighting games and arcade beat 'em ups I go leverless with my keyboard. For 2D platformers I like to use a d-pad. Then for 3D games I usually go to my 360 knock off controller.
I recently started playing old tank control style games in the vein of Resident Evil with my keyboard and it works surprisingly well. Old Tomb Raider also plays well with the kb set up.
Anyone else?
Holding out for my personal Best Regular Controller™️. The Chinese stuff is pretty promising as someone else mentioned here, but there’s still none that have gyro, a good d-pad in the “dish” style of the Xbox Series controller, rumble, and hall effect sticks, as far as I can tell. Other than that I usually just use whatever default controller for the console is or whatever is relevant for a specific genre.
