I do NOT generally like shooters. I'm not very good with a mouse due to essential tremors, and I'm a hunt-and-peck typist. PC gaming was never for me unless I used a controller or emulating retro games (like SNES or GameBoy). I also just don't really care for guns in video games and prefer melee. But for whatever reason, I really like Borderlands, and I like using sniper rifles because it really itches that Skyrim Stealth Archer itch for me.
Guys, I can't believe how much better I am at aiming with a "mouse" using the trackpad vs. using a control stick. This has made the game so much easier for me and has made headshots incredibly fun and so much easier to calibrate. I can just nail like ten headshots in a row opposed to constantly missing due to my tremors and trying to find the perfect level of sensitivity for my stick. And, if I want to use the control stick, I just move my thumb a tiny bit, and boom, different level of sensitivity.
I love this little guy and how it's breathed new life, and interest, in a genre I used to ignore because I just didn't think I would ever be skilled/coordinated enough to play.
