No need to go into a menu and swap - just push a button on one or the other, and all on-screen prompts change to reflect what you’re using. One of my favorite things about the control setup, though, is that like GTA 4 and a select few other games before it, GTA 5 lets you seamlessly swap between the mouse and keyboard and a gamepad on the fly. You don’t get the annoying horizontal drift when running in first-person like you do in the PS4 and Xbox One versions, either. Nice PC-specific control touches, like not having to hammer a button to keep up running speed (just hold down Shift) and being able to hit a single button (Caps Lock by default) to activate a special ability make everything feel like a native PC game. That doesn’t mean I felt invincible, though because the authorities will never stop coming until you give up and run away or die, they’re always going to give you a challenging fight through the weight of sheer numbers. Without the scourge of auto-aim dragging the targeting reticule down toward center mass, I found myself picking off most enemies with a single shot to the head, especially when playing in first-person mode. I don’t pretend to be a brilliant marksman, but if you’re a bad guy (or a cop) in Los Santos, your odds of even making it out of your car to start shooting drop considerably when I’m using a mouse. Using a mouse to shoot, on the other hand, is good enough that it risks making combat feel a little too easy.
