Left hand mouse gaming?

Haruyoshi · 2021-09-23 10:18

Anybody here play games with left hand? I'm using trackball mouse with my left hand. And I gave up playing FPS and RPG 'Cuz Those keyboard key settings are really uncomfortable to play. I tried to change for my own, But I can't be comfortable. Any good recommendation games with left hand? Or... good games to play well with situation now? >Or changing my hand for mouse to right // Using gamepad will be better solution..?

>>5245 Remap your Controls to IJKL? Numpad? Use an ambidextrous mouse?

>>5246 Yea, It's ambidextrous. Also I can use it with my right hand but I don't really want to move mouse location often for gaming. I tried to WASD to IJKL or numpad but after do that, other essential keys' location gonna be dissymmetric.

TCGs like MTG Arena or hearthstone can be played with left hand just fine. Turn-based strategies games like Heroes of Might and magic VI are very playable too

>>5245 Left-hander here, I don't use left-hand controls, it doesn't make any sense to. Just get used to it, its a right-hander's world unfortunately.

>>5245 Have you looked into ortholinear keyboards or split keyboards? I never tried them myself because I don't have the money right now, but they might be more friendly to you. You could also substitute your mouse and keyboard for a gamepad if supported. Otherwise, I heavily recommend games like Into the Breach. **God that game is so fun.** Basically, games that don't require too many button inputs might be a good idea to look into.

>>5247 >I tried to WASD to IJKL or numpad but after do that, other essential keys' location gonna be dissymmetric. you can change all of those keybindings too, you have mnhyu789opö., keys just around IJKL so there are plenty of keys to rebind to

also there are some games that you can basically play entirely with the numpad so with one hand, like "Pirates!"

1980s - 1990s style arcade had the joystick on the left side.

i forgot if it was that hard because i fell for the gaming keyboard meme, but playing them now. it shouldn't be *that* hard to play. you may need to sacrifice some controls but you probably wont be using them that much

Video games trained me to only rlly use my right hand or a controller, but I usually use my mouse cocked sideways.
