Can a keyboard let me move in more than 8 directions? Can it let me tap/hold the sprint button, or tap that quick heal button without either moving the while hand, or needing me to constantly snap my hand in unnatural position? Especially if you only need a few buttons to play the game, a controller is nicer because you actually hold it. Like us apes do with things.

This is like telling someone playing guitar is superior to a flute, and ignoring how much harder it is
