While working on my quest, a thought came to me. How many people play with a keyboard and mouse, and how many play with some sort of gamepad? What's your personal preference and why?
Keyboard or Gamepad?
This thread included a poll: How do you like to control Link when you play?
I try to control Link with MY MIND.
...but if that doesn't work out I go with a gamepad.
I just use my Xbox 360 Controller for ZC. I just can't stand trying to play some of the quest out there with a keyboard.
I'd rather use a gamepad, but I didn't have one when I first started playing over ten years ago. I got so good with the keyboard that I can play just as well with either method.
Keyboard and Mouse are master race, bro. (But seriously, Mouse and Keyboard have been my preferred method since I was like 4.)
I've mainly used a gamepad, I never could get used to using the keyboard for games.
Whenever I play ZC, I usually stick to the Game Pad if I have one plugged in, but I have often used the keyboard to play. In the long run, I don't really care whether or not a game pad is available, because it's not really necessary to have a game pad since you can use the keyboard to play the game, just like you would do with many other computer games.
I prefer gamepad, but when I'm testing a quest I usually play with the keyboard.
