This applies to many things. That guy down the street who acts super macho and has a lifted truck? Don't date him unless you want to be disappointed. The quiet nerdy dude with a prius? Absolutely freak in bed, and a hung power bottom that will ignite things within you.
(based on a true story)
Personally a fan of Keychron M3, and it's pretty cheap too. I've heard that the shape is a bit of a crapshoot with regards to comfort when holding, but I've personally never had an issue and it's just been awesome
Red Dragon keyboards and mouses > that expensive shit.
Nah, Bad Dragon is where it's at.
I guess ymmv with red dragon, but the one mouse I had from them broke after like 2 hours of use. Normal clicking and the right mouse button just split in half. Figured it was just really cheap plastic or something.
Bu-bu-but it has RGB light effects and 8 extra buttons that I'll never use, and it was only $30! The sponsored Amazon link assured me that this would push my gaming skills to the max! They can't just write that about anything!
Back when I used to play Fortnite, these extra buttons were the only way I could build, I never understood how people unironically used the default binds, like mate does your finger reach F2 while pressing wasd?
It's been really long since I've played, but I hope they've changed the default binds at some time. At the very least middle click has to be binded to straight wall.
Lol that one razer essential mouse with lights on it goes for under $20 sometimes and is genuinely as performant as a gaming mouse 5x the price tho. Probably the one component I'd most commonly recommend for someone planning a new build just due to insane value/$
Razer hardware is generally solid. Their software is absolute dogshit and they'll never have a dollar from me again because of it.
Yes. I had a Nostromo I used for processing photos. It was excellent, but required Razer's Synapse software to work. One day there was an update that killed it. Never got it working right again, despite seriously trying for months.
Never getting another Razer product again.
I finally found a well-built comfortable mouse that has tons of wacky RGB effects and just a few extra buttons in a surprisingly useable layout.
The one I ended up with was the Roccat Kone XP. The best part is that I rarely notice the extra buttons until I need to use them and otherwise just feels like a normal mouse most of the time.
Totally not everyone’s cup of tea, but you can in fact get a feature mouse that also is well built. They do exist!
I had gone through probably half a dozen mice before it in the 5 years before this one, but this one has lasted around 2 years without a single complaint.
Can't believe I completely forgot about Roccat, loved their mice like a decade ago
I won't buy any mouse that doesn't have extra buttons to configure. I'm totally going to configure all of them just give me time ok?
For browsing/work, bind page up and down, and home and end to the fancy buttons. And of course forward/back and volume up/down.
I don’t think I can use a non-mmo mouse for productivity anymore.
When I used to play wow I used all the buttons.
I definitely do with FFXIV. I'm awful at using keyboard shortcuts like f1-9. Bonus is that I can also use the buttons in fpses and switch weapons and shit that way as it's more natural for me.
