How do you put your fingers on keyboard when playing The Sims?

You don’t use the keyboard to control the game speed? Or take screenshots? Or shortcuts to open certain menus?

Madness! ;)

It's possible to play using only the mouse, but impractical.

Sure, but who wants to mouse around the UI all the time? Not me. :)

idk personally I find doing stuff with mouse much easier and faster and i never touch keyboard unless I have to

recently i do have to keep my hand on ctrl though because for some reason my mouse wheel has decided to not turn the camera anymore and its driving me insane how complex it is to play without using the wheel to turn camera however i like

idk why it does that and if its because of my laptop or game or the mouse itself :confused:

I rarely use the keyboard during the game outside of the C button to take a picture and the M button to quickly go to the map to send my sims places faster. I do not hardly ever pause my game unless I am leaving the room or speed the game up ever. My right hand is always on my mouse basically or on my cup of coffee.

My left hand is on ‘,1, 2, 3
My right on the mouse - I use the wheel to zoom and rotate.

Me apparently. I keep my right hand on my mouse and my left hand just rests near the keyboard. Then if I need to type, I put my hands in the correct typing position.

I would guess that how your hands rest, depends largely on the type of things you do on your computer the most.

Rarely....xD

@elanorbreton Same. Only time I use the keyboard is for ctrl+shift+c or when I’m in build mode for the ALT or 0-9 or .

This! I’m in a recliner with my laptop, right hand on the mouse (it’s on my armrest), left hand on my coffee/water/or wine glass.

I mostly use my mouse when I play the game.
