What do you want from gaming mouse software? If you're anything like me, your immediate reaction to that question is probably 'not much.' But over the years, I've noticed that asking for 'not much' actually seems to be quite a lot to ask for, judging from over-bloated and over-complicated software that we're often served up.
We're often given exactly the kinds of things people don't want from their peripheral software. A nice colour scheme and fancy animations are fine, sure, but ultimately, all that often matters for most gamers is how quickly and easily they can get in, adjust their DPI or polling rate, maybe check for a firmware update, and get out again.
