We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
I'm super conflicted so help me out here.

Either Xbox or PC.

I understand getting Overwatch on PC (which I just did) but I'm honestly not sure about Doom and if there's any real differences.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
Higher framerate + better sliders for things like POV.

Not sure how dead the XBO community is though. If it's like PS4, stay away

My main beef is that I'm a lot much more comfortable with my xbox controller but I'm assuming it has gamepad support.

Well Doom has pretty tight and fast paced gameplay so you'd be preventing a more fulfilling gaming experience if you played with a controller. With most single player FPS campaigns I would recommend  the input you're most comfortable with but in this case I'll say go with mouse+kn.

Then again I've only played the demo and watched some clips so i dunno

Yes it has controller support.
I usually play campaign on controller and multiplayer with a mouse.

PC might be the only place with people playing the multiplayer.

Considering that PC gaming tends to suck shit through a garden hose, I'd say the conflict is pretty apparent.

I remembered the line from the shitlord scripture the Bhagavad Reeeeeeeta; Kek is trying to persuade the prince that he should save his people, and to impress him takes on his frog-headed form, and says, "Now I am become meme, the destroyer of cucks." I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.

In some ways, having worse aiming can make the game more challenging--and even if challenge isn't what you're looking for, being comfortable with your controller tends to play a huge part in your enjoyment of a game--and if someone's not comfortable with K+M, then that's that.

i didnt expect a reply but it works best if they build the game around the controls you want to be used for it

for some shooters thats probably going to be a gamepad

matters less for shooters designed for multiplayer since everyone will be playing against the people with the same controls unless you have cross play but thats another can of worms

either way most modern shooters if not all on pc will have gamepad support, i mean you can play counter strike against kbm players and put yourself at a disadvantage so theres that but i wouldnt call that an issue like your mom being unable to play X or Y game because she hasnt learnt how to use a gamepad in the first place

you can also factor that in as part of the learning curve if you want

i prefer using a gamepad for third person games on pc, especially hack and slash games

i guess racing games too if it doesnt have wheel support

that said pc doom supports both gamepad and kbm and has the most active player community as well as having originated as a PC game too from the original studio that made the first

If you know, you know.
It was good on Xbox One. But in the end, it is an inferior version of Quake so you're still better off buying it on PC if you can run it comfortably and don't care about things like achievements and whatnot.

Truth hurts.
Which Doom and Quake are we comparing?
Doom 2016 fucked up freeze tag. They have custom loadouts in it and the ammo is limited. First time playing I could not believe my eyes. That like having no weapons in a deathmatch game. Wtf id?!
