According to Steam, the average PC Gamer [recursive reference from PCGamer] writer played 72 games this year (56% of which were new) and used a controller more than we'd like to admit (www.pcgamer.com)

Depends on the game. Call of Duty aim assist was so crazy (since MW2019) that when they finally nerfed it in Black Ops 7, big name CDL players literally couldn't aim for their first 5 games or so. And right now a bunch of console players think it's trash because they can't aim OR abuse the omega sweaty movement that was in BO6 previously (they barely nerfed the slide).

This is resulting in me noticing that while a lot of people still rush there's a ton of players who now literally pre ADS everything like they are playing MWII (2022). It's extremely annoying.
