I will never understand how people can enjoy playing video games with a controller

Okay, fair enough if you're playing something like Persona, a turn based game, it really makes no difference, you could play that kind of game on your phone. But real time games where you have to manipulate the camera with analog sticks? How the heck can you game like that? I feel like I'm being collectively gaslit whenever I talk about a console port like Monster Hunter or Soulsbornekiro Ring games with friends and they tell me I'm insane for using mouse and keyboard and should use a controller instead. It's like if people recommended gaming on a laptop with a touchpad. What's wrong with you all?
