    It might be do-able, but I have to admit that I`m quite biased towards using controllers in general for playing anything. I have never been much of a console gamer so using a controller is weird for me for any game.

    This baby is awesome for MMOs, it is a Mouse + 12 Keys. I used mostly this for GW2 with the occasional keyboard use for chat etc.

    I use keyboard and mouse when I'm playing mmorpg. It's hard to play if you use controller on this one or weird.

    Keyboard all the way in of course. I can't really stand to play with a gamepad because it feels really weird and dumbish to hold a stick in my hand to play. I really need to have a keyboard and mouse to give the best of myself. Also keyboard and mouse looks more badass than a joypad as the latter one is more likely used by kids.

    When it comes down to MMORPGS, my keyboard is my best friend. Probably also because I've got used to it, so... yeah. Didn't really try a joypad for MMORPGS, but it could be something new.

    Keyboard definitely, especially when it comes to those games. A gamepad just doesn't feel right for me, while the keyboard does everything I need and works perfectly for me.

    Keyboard and mouse all the way for any PC gaming. I can't stand gamepads for PCs- it's just too limited.

    I definitely play better with a mouse and keyboard. I wouldn't be able to handle an analogue stick without becoming frustrated. I'm just so used to using the mouse and keyboard, that if I were to hook something different up to my computer, it would confuse me to no end.

    Keyboard and mouse is a lot better for those kind of games imo. The precision is better by a ton.
