Recently I started playing first Spider-Man on PC. I enjoyed the game very much. Everything the game threw at me I could handle. It wasn't easy, but it was fair. Then challenges appeared (somehow they appeared even before I encountered them in the story). The first challenge I found was drone challenge in Harlem. I tried it. Failed it. And then I spent hours trying. It was frustrating. Somehow Spider-Man would go where I would want him to go. I tried and tried again, but I couldn't get three stars and I didn't know how to get better. I googled guides, advices, watched videos. Still couldn't even get close. And it was no fun, just infuriating, retry after retry. After sometime I got tired of negative emotions and didn't play for several days.
Today I didn't know what to do. My girlfriend took my gamepad to play Hello Kitty Island. And then a thought appeared: why not try those challenges with mouse and keyboard. They are more precise, after all.
I connected mouse to my laptop. Looked at the key bindings (because I didn't know how to play these game with keyboard), changed some. I set left-click to "Zip to Point", right-click to swing, left shift to aim. Then I tried those challenges. And it made so much better in my opinion. I felt much more control thanks to the ability to look around faster with a mouse. Zipping to points became more precise. Now when I failed I wasn't angry. My failures felt like my own and not those of some weird controls. I felt that I got better after each try. And I got 3 stars in all of them in like an hour.
So, for all who will seek advice on those challenges in the future, here's my advice: use mouse if you used controller before. It will make your life much easier. Unfortunately I don't know how good this advices is for PS players. I guess you can try changing sensitivity if you can.
