I've developed tendonitis in the wrist of my primary/mousing hand, and it's prompted me to make some changes for my health.
Lately I've been playing spam-clicky, mouse-intensive games like League of Legends, Diablo III, etc., but I also play MMORPGs, FPSes, and all other sorts of games.
I've switched to using the mouse with my left hand, but a) I'm not accurate enough with that hand to play computer games yet, and b) I'm worried that'll just eventually end in RSI, too.
So I'm looking into mouse alternatives that work best for gaming. Since I play a range of game types, I'm looking for a well-rounded input device, not one that works well for a certain type of game but is cumbersome in others.
I already have a drawing tablet, but obviously that doesn't work for gaming.
Vertical mice seem neat, but don't offer enough precision of movement.
I love the design of the RollerMouse, especially the ease of switching between typing and pointing. But I'm assuming the design wouldn't work for games like MMORPGs, where you're often holding down a mouse button and moving the pointer to constantly rotate the camera while moving, clicking the other mouse button to select targets/items, and simultaneously using one hand on the keyboard for WASD/hotkeys.
Thoughts?
