Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise is now on steam.

the gameplay itself was crap as it was never meant to be a shooter and that was sort of imposed on the team to make the game more appealing. To be able to point with the mouse actually makes it easier, not that the game was hard to begin with.

You wont really notice much of a difference with K&M considering most of the game was exploring and talking to npc´s. Even the car in the first game was extremely sensitive with the analogue, to the point where you had about the same precision using the Keyboard.

there are games where controller should be discussed for sure. A fighting game works best with a specific controller. In fps you could consider separating mouse and aim assist on controller. Racing games are better with a wheel

Nothing about DP needs a controller, its just that they programmed the game for the switch and most you will get out of them is a straight port that wont even be optimized for pc, for a game that had bugs crashes framerate that dipped into single digit.
i will play on controller if i have to. As long as the game works, but the lack of support already makes for a bad first impression.

Doom better with keyboard - never played it so i can't say and i don't know DP as a series but saying that keyboards are sold as much as controllers is crazy and you can use one of hundreds of controllers on PC not one type only so many more people have them - in fact (i use a laptop only) i bet more people have a controller they can use on a computer than a keyboard - but and this is a general question why when the Switch version of this game and the Steam version of the first game are thought badly of - did people think this would be much better?
