To all the PC newbs crying about Skyrim UI

Look for Black Friday deals online or your neartest store and get this...

http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=n52te&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-Address&oe=&rlz=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=shop&cid=16318042829710503833&sa=X&ei=e17NTvKkPIPe2AWD4f2dDw&ved=0CE8Q8wIwAw#

I purchased mine for 40 bucks last Black Friday online including shipping. Your present setup consists of Mouse and Keyboard, right? Assuming you a right handed Mouse user, what does your left hand Thumb do, anything? With this little gadget you can create up to 10 hotkeys programmed to any key you want just for that one single thumb! You can also macro multiple keystrokes with one button!

If you are the type to invest big bucks for a video card to get the pretty graphics but don't invest in awesome user input devices like this, you are selling yourself short!

Don't see how more keybinds does anything to solve the UI issues people are having, but I'm guessing you wrote that title thinking it was a clever way of getting views. Which it was :@

Pass. Also, how the hell do you hold it? Looks like something that might have come out from inside a Dwemer centurion.

That.... thing, what ever it is, doesn't really make the UI any better.

i have an n52 and it doesn't fix the UI issues. while it is great for playing any game with, and makes rebinding lulzy keybinds easier/faster, it doesn';t really help with the UI bugs that are mostly mouse related.

Keyboard is better.. those things are gimmicks, and you still need a keyboard to type.

You must be a little defected then.. You basically just advertised something that doesn't help with the menu at all. We all get it that you like that "thing" and would like to share it with people, but this won't fix UI problems.

Helps me on my end. I have 1-8 hotkeys for Skyrim all for my left thumb. I also have single button macros that go thru each of the inventory / item screens without me having to go through 2, 3 or 4 pages...all setup for one button

Oh well, your loss

You don't actually understand what's being complained about if you think that's the solution.

For us pc players is not only about controls but also about UI design which is optimized for pc. After all, Todd said pc players will have their own UI interface. Yeah right.

1. I am not a 'PC newb'.
2. My keyboard does everything I want it to, and that gimmick does nothing to improve a crappy UI.
3. There is no room on my keyboard tray for that monstrosity.


Those devices can come in handy in certain situations, true. 'Fixing a crappy PC UI' is not one of them.

Okay. Personally, I think they're neat - but this has nothing to do with Skyrim, and title's needlessly flamebait.
