I... don't know yet. Having forced myself to complete a game, I do feel a lot more comfortable than I did. Having said that, there's not a lot of controls needed for a game like Quake. Take moving and aiming out of the equation - you've basically got Shoot, Switch weapon and Jump right? That I can handle. But thinking about more modern games, like Borderlands for instance - now I've got to learn a whole new control method for also squatting, alternate-shots, running, and perhaps most importantly (to me) sniping. All those extra new buttons to get used to, I feel like it would really slow me down cuz I'd have to stop and think before doing anything. So not sure I could handle that if I were playing a faster game, or a multiplayer one. That said, I might try something more modern solo just to get a feel for it and see what I think. Right now, I'd say I still find a controller more naturally comfortable. But I wouldn't rule kb/m out necessarily.

It's true. You don't know "horrifying" until you've had Ack come at you in a game making train sounds.
