Epic question!
I started playing in early 2018 with an office mouse for the first few months, which by then i was soooo eager to try a tablet!! I borrowed my friend's wacom intuos for about a year and then finally got a tablet of my own, an XP-pen! Being 20$ at the time with their slick description "made for osu", it seemed like a no brainer
I was playing about 18hours a day on average through my first year and by 2019 i had invested in a keyboard and 240hz. It was expensive but worth it
(These "upgrades" did not improve my gameplay lolol it still always took time and practice)

bruh i played osu for 2 days with a mouse and then i got a tablet
I had been playing a lot for a few months and decided to get a tablet. I just bought the cheapest I found, still using it today after 6 years.
I also had a membrane keyboard at first, a million or so clicks in the weight of my finger was enough to press the keys so I got a mechanical (black switch).
Fun fact: I often see a lot of people saying a tablet won't make you better instantly. After just a week with tablet I was already better than with mouse (it was a bad mouse but still)

Yeah, it would take time to adjust to new peripherals but it’s good to hear that you’re willing to take risk and upgrade.TrainHeart420 wrote:

It’s different for everyone. I personally couldn’t get into tablet but that is crazy seeing your improvement from switching to tablet.Karmine wrote:

i started osu in 2021 already having a mech keyboard and a 144hz monitor
I played for maybe a week or two before I bought my first tablet (Huion GS64 i think) which broke after like 2-3 months
one of my friends who also started playing around the same time as me got an xp pen g640 and he said he liked it, so i bought it after doing research and seeing it was actually a decent tablet unlike the hs64
honestly not sure how long i had my g640 for, but i didnt really like it. i found myself constantly accidentally hitting the side button which would mess up my cursor + the pen was too skinny for me + i didnt really like how small the tablet was, but i just decided to deal with it.
after 6+ months i got fed up of dealing with the star g640 and finally bit the bullet and bought the bigger version of the osu!pro tablet© (CTH 480/680) for around $60 after shipping and im so happy i did

2 days into playing the game with some random office mouse, I decided to try using my mum's wacom ctl 4100 she used because of her RSI from using a mouse. Since then she's moved on to a fancy trackball mouse, so I guess the drawing tablet is just mine now. This'll be real ironic when I have RSI from playing too much osu in 4 years.
Since then, I've gotten a 144hz monitor and a mechanical keyboard after just using a laptop for a while, not specifically for osu,but because I wanted proper peripherals to prepare for an eventual pc build I mean for online class yeah definitely for online class (the extra monitor was super useful though, I don't think I can go back single monitor setup).

You guys... I just use a mouse and keyboard, and I play just fine (call me weird, I know).
many people play with mouse and keyboard.Neigdoig wrote:

had a cheapo membrane kb, bought a mech one not sure why.
i didn't like how hard wiggle patterns were using palm grip on mouse, got a tablet. tablet felt small, bought a bigger one. tablet felt small, bought a bigger one again.
old crt monitors (~100 to 160hz) started to break, bought a lcd with a loot of hz so it wouldn't look choppy or worse.

I bought a tablet, keypad, and got a better monitor for osu! game.
