Left-Handed Gamers, Gaming, Mice And Reality

By Verna Strong


Getting comfortable with a left handed mouse is only one of the many skills you need to participate in online gaming. There must be a reason that motivates so many players to devote so many hours to games such as EverQuest, World of Warcraft and many other Massive MultiPlayer Online Role Playing Games, or MMORPGs. For many people, gaming is a way of life. For others, it's a fun way to relax every so often. Which category do you fit into? Sure, you want to have fun gaming, but where do you start? If you want to improve your gaming skills, this article will give you some ideas.

It's true that if you're left-handed, sometimes the gaming experience can be frustrating. Sometimes it seems the world is made for right-handed people, and you know controllers are made for them, too. MMORPGs, most at least, are great because you can easily use your keyboard with keys given certain functions. This means that you can create left handed shortcuts to make your game playing a lot easier. The thing is the combination of your keyboard shortcuts and the left-handed mouse is more than enough to become good at anything including role playing games.

Be a team player. In some ways playing MMORPGs is like playing a sport. You will be expected to accept instruction and direction in the heat of battle from teammates with more experience.

The flip side of the coin is that you'll soon enough be doing the same to beginners, and you must be able to do that and do it without an attitude. The concept of the team in sports, or other areas, is that the goal is for the team to win, and sometimes that necessitates making sacrifices for the good of the team. The blanket refusal to be a reciprocal team member will carry repercusions such as others refusing to play with you or have anything to do with you. Just remember that if you're on a team within a community, then it's important to serve the team's best interest.

If you think someone isn't playing well try to deal with it in a polite way, and privately. The thing about this area of concern is that the other team members can feel down if things are spoken in the open.

The online gaming community has quite a bit to offer. You can find other people who share your interest. It's a way to escape the pressures of everyday life. To get the most out of online gaming, of course, you should work at improving your skills. This takes a variety of skills, such as socializing well, learning all the ins and outs of the game, and just getting in enough practice. You shouldn't, however, worry about it. After all, the whole point is to have fun!
