Ahhh yeah that makes a lot of sense. I personally play games with super high dexterity demands for aim and whatnot, and the touchpads always felt like I wanted something better. Using it just to love a cursor reasonably at all is petty much ticking a necessary box.
I pretty much switch which games I play on the go vs at home with my mouse and keyboard.
Yeah, I’ve been getting sick of the journalists just assuming they’re only getting to their own crowd who should automatically know what they’re talking about.
