The Case for MKB Support on Consoles

Let's begin with Precision, Control, and a fair even Gaming Experience with PC(kbm players)

Issue with a controller mechanics


Key Points:
Imprecise Targeting: Controller aiming often leads to unintended targets, especially in fast-paced action games.
Frustrating Spellcasting: Difficulty in accurately casting spells, resulting in missed opportunities and wasted resources.
Unreliable Teleportation: Inconsistent teleportation mechanics can hinder exploration and combat strategies.


The MKB Advantage on Console support


Key Points:

Pixel-Perfect Precision: MKB offers unparalleled accuracy for aiming and spellcasting.
Intuitive Controls: Familiar input methods for PC gamers, ensuring a seamless transition.
Enhanced Player Experience: MKB support can significantly improve overall gameplay enjoyment and satisfaction.


Addressing Concerns


Anticipating Concerns:
Fair Play: MKB players can be matched with other MKB players to maintain a level playing field.
Console Ecosystem: MKB support can coexist with controller-based gameplay, offering choice to players.
Technical Implementation: Modern consoles are capable of supporting MKB input, with many games already offering this feature. (Examples games: CoD, Fortnite - even if this are shooters example it will work on PoE2)


Lastly I know my voice for this feature is felt by other members of this community. I just want to clearly state the pros and cons from my experience. If there are others here that feels the same, please join me urging the developers to implement MKB support.

I believe this is the best developed ARPG for everyone to enjoy, together providing constructive feedback coming from us this will only make it a greater experience.
