Title: Logitech's new G604
Post by: tp4tissue on Fri, 20 September 2019, 12:21:42
It's prooobably a good mouse.

But it's aesthetically OFFENSIVE. 

This looks Gross..  am very off put by it visually.

I have to be honest,I kinda like the way it looks,here's hoping for a nice deep discount around Christmas so I can give it try.

I don't care how ugly it is...My single complaint about the G602 is the mouse wheel and this fixes it. I'm buying 3 haha.

Looks like a mouse... What makes it ugly, the extra flap on the side?  The dotty-dash texturing?  The weird lump on the back end?

Personally I don't care as I wouldn't be able to see it when my hand's on it and if I'm neaby chances are I'm looking at the monitor anyway so who cares if it's ugly.  The same could be said in reverse for adding 50+ RGB LEDs to your g4m3r computer - surely you should be concentrating on the game not looking at your "pretty" computer.

Perhaps devoid of cognitive modeling, nothing is truly ugly, there are no ugly women, no ugly men, no ugly houses, no ugly mice.

Tp4's expressed feeling of revulsion to this mouse was instant and free of deep decision.

He saw it and immediately cringed at its choice of both texture and geometry.

It won't kill anyone to use it, sure,  but aesthetic choice is something very innate , and while we can reject any higher-lvl prejudices After the fact, baseline emotional reactions exist.

This mouse's -looks- created such strong instant-dislike that it startled Tp4.

Been addicted to Arsenal FPS lately and they say it's good use for "fortnite"... not sure why you would need to click three buttons at once in an fps because you usually use 2 weapons, the knife and the gun.

I could imagine this being a MOBA mouse, but not an fps mouse.

Didn't mean to refute your opinion, was just surprised that such an unremarkable (to my eyes) item elicited a strong response and the only way to attempt to overcome my own subjectivity was to look for atypical characteristics that could have triggered it.

Afterthought - who at Logitech thought it was a good idea to get someone who's apparently never used a mouse to measure it? 130mm tall - I think not :))
