I can play with both Controller and Mouse&Keyboard but I'm kinda bias towards M&K since that's what I started with, even though I always play 3rd person games (even 3rd person shooters) on PC with a Controller and I still like using it for Genshin but for some reason it feels a little off for me, what about you?

I do, but I have an 8BitDo Pro that has back buttons that I use on PC and I've also modded my DualSense controller to have back buttons so that makes the default layout feel a lot better for me.

Just editing to add real quick: The lack of gyro aiming is far and away my biggest frustration though and is something I nag for in every single survey possible.

I feel you, I use Xbox controller but I used to play on android, not having gyro aim it quite annoying so I just learn to use the left stick to micro-adjust by moving around, it's not perfect but better than nothing and I've gotten used to it by now

Lol. I do the same with the strafing for micro-adjustments.

So... funny enough you can play it with gyro aiming but it's pretty convoluted (and expensive if you don't already have the hardware).

If you set up remote streaming from your PS5 to a Steam Deck using Chiaki, then you can configure the controller in Steam to map the gyro to the right stick. It works pretty well actually but yeah...

well...I don't have a PS5 and I prefer Xbox Controller though
