This is going to be a VERY dumb topic, but I'm genuinely curious as I have no experience at all with PC MMO gameplay.
How do you guys even play ESO on PC? Like, I noticed the abilities are cast using the number keys, so I'm assuming it's the keys above A, W, S, and D. But trying that myself as practice, trying to hit the keys imagining that I'm trying to move around and cast something just feels incredibly awkward on my hand. Do you literally make stuttering stop and go movements cause you're constantly taking your finger off the forward key to cast an ability? Or is this just a matter of do it enough and it becomes habit sort of thing?
As an Xbox One player it seems fairly simple to me as movement is on the left side of the controller using the left thumbstick and all the abilities are cast using the right hand buttons, so you can cast without worrying about your movement. Though I pre-emptively bought ESO through Steam when it was on-sale as a sort of safety net in-case something goes wrong with the Console, I just feel odd about the control layout difference.
That looks incredibly awkward as well actually. I'm not good with the 3x3 numpad, and Hell that mouse has a 3x4. O.o

What on earth is that? Quite curious

but so many people cheat on PC (cheat engine to farm vMA, gap closing exploits to enter Keeps, using one low-level char so everyone can run through Sanctum to farm gear that drops at their character level...the list goes on) and that is your answer to how they play
Macros are against the TOS. I wouldn't go advertising it.
It's all about practice really, you can be really good with any controller setup given time.
Controllers or gaming mice are more efficient at pressing buttons than a traditional keyboard and mouse set up. Mice are easier to aim than the joysticks on a gaming controller though.
