Verdict
Using a Mouse and Keyboard may provide players with a lot more functions to do with the single press of a button, but a controller works just as fine.
There are certain comforts in using a controller or mouse and keyboard depending on your preferences, but all actions are still accessible.
Regardless of using a mouse and keyboard or sticking with a controller, players can fully enjoy the game and play skillfully.
