Every console shooter should come out with well-implemented gyro aiming that is turned on by default. It’s ridiculous how much you gain in precision by using it after only a little bit of practice
I've been playing totk and at one point I had to turn off motion control to get more precision (ironic, I know, but gyro induces too much sway for when you need a near pixel perfect positioning) for building a hover bike. I had no idea how much I subconsciously used gyro aiming. For instance I wanted to pick up one of the fans. So I tun the stick to move the camera to target the fan like I always do, but this time I end up just short of actually targeting the fan. Turns out I instinctively also turn the controller to have the gyro assist the aiming, but because gyro was off that last step of targeting was now missing and I kept missing my targeting. It felt super weird to pick them up without the gyro.
I absolutely recommend any skeptic to turn it on, play with it regularly for let's say 20 hours and turn it off. You will feel the difference. It becomes so natural that you won't even notice yourself using it.
No gyro on Xbox, so only PS and Switch (and Steam Deck, I guess?) would get to enjoy this.
Love using gyro controls. It's perfect with a controller just having an extra layer of movement options. Used it first with the Steam Controller.
