A common complaint I see on gaming forums (especially after a new patch) is “Why is team working on X instead of Y?!” as though the people working on Y could switch to X or should be fired or sit around and do nothing until X is fixed. The people doing content creation stuff (e.g. artists, writers, scripting team, voice actors etc) are probably not going to be able to fix the netcode of the game.
(obviously, there is also mismanagement and failing to read your audience, but god damn gamers are the most entitled audience I’ve encountered in doing any art)(as a gamer etc etc)
I use the numpad quite a bit when entering lots of numbers with one hand. Comes up a bit in drafting, some data entry… Some video games.
This thread has made me curious though. That said I am very attached to my 15 year old logitech keyboard. Done some soldering, cleaned a lot of beer out
