You’re almost right.
‘KeyDown’ is getting deprecated!
The new method is UserInputService.
Here is a good method on using it.
New Code:
1 | game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:connect(function(inputObject, gameProcessedEvent) |
2 | if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then |
3 | print("Q was pressed") |
4 | end |
5 | end) |

The answer is no, :GetMouse() is no getting deprecated.
But Mouse is outdated, there are others which have more features, like
UserInputService and ContextActionService.

There are still ways to use :GetMouse()
like Mouse.Target and Mouse.TargetSurface and many others which can be very useful, you can see all of them by going to the object browser and look for Mouse.
