A mouse might feel good in your hand, but until you play in pressure situations with it and compare it to your other best mouse, you probably won't know if it's actually a good shape for you or not. For competitive, Aim > Comfort

I lost power for 3 days during a cyclone this year, the wind was intense, didn't break windows, so I was fine. That was only category 2 though. There's a cat 5 super typhoon off the coast of Hong Kong at the moment. Hope everyone is prepared and stays safe! Get foods that don't

Low profile keyboards > * From my testing, the best actuation point is what's on low profile by default. Combined with linear switches and that's a keyboard I would use in competitive play. Also I prefer typing on them too. So more of these, please!

Imagine having an ego as a controller player using aim assist... it's like a kid bragging that he's rich because his parents buy him everything. He's not rich, his parents are rich. And you can't aim, the developers just spoil you with aim assist while nerfing mouse aimers.

Had 2 Seagate Drives fail within a month, 1 NAS and 1 NVMe... time to switch to a new brand? They've been good over the last 7 years but that's the rule: 2 fails = switch. Also if you have a FireCuda NVMe, apparently need to update firmware because updated Windows bricks them?

All these super expensive skins... if I ran a game development company, I'd feel like I had a responsibility to my fans: If they're super passionate about our games, to the point they want to throw hundreds at them, then we need to treat them kindly with reasonable prices.

Re-imagining of the first Tomb Raider game coming next year... was a huge fan of that vibe and style of gameplay, the new ones just didn't hit, so it's great to see that they're going back to what made it so good. Most likely gonna buy this. youtu.be/n6JxVxSHjqE

Back in the day, Quake had a massive modding community... with many of the mods going on to spawn or influence actual new games (like Counter Strike). Does that still exist these days? Is there a huge modding/game dev community around FPS games? Map makers and the likes?

8k polling rate is a gimmick. Low profile switches on keyboards is a legitimate advantage in games and I'd argue better for typing too... so why aren't more people using them? Gave some thoughts in the CHERRY XTRFY MX 10.1 Wireless Review: youtu.be/wlqbUXg14bY

Random Tip: Turns out my games have been stuttering lately because of a faulty cable connected to an audio device, which wasn't in use. So if you're getting stutters, try unplugging each USB device one by one, see if you have the same issue. Could even be a faulty USB port.

Are people just waiting to hate on new games now? I mean, I still play a 20 year old game because I think all the new ones feel like a brick on skates compared to Quake, but... surely others are open minded and can enjoy them? Or is modern gaming actually just bad?

More anti-mouse bias, Apex Legends devs clearly don't want anyone actually aiming. But also just a word of warning if you do buy this mouse, maybe don't use it in Apex until they say it's ok. Inb4 reviewers make a video "This mouse is literal hax".
