Best mouse for Stellaris
There's a lot of mousing and clicking in this game... my wrist gets quite un-comfy after a session. Does anyone have a fabulous mouse, or type of mouse?

I use a normal mouse but I did make an autohotkey script to allow the side buttons to adjust the time speed.

Most of all the mouse must fit your hand.. Also lay your hand on the mouse in the correct way, which means, forefinger on left mousebutton and RINGfinger on right button. Middlefinger stays on scrollwheel. This way the hand lays flat on the mouse.
A common mistake is people putting the middlefinger on right mousebutton, but this means the hand is falling down right side of mouse.

Manufacturers:
Razer is good, the basilisk V3 is for average sized to small hands. Also left side has an underlying for the thumb. Razer Viper is also popular. Their software on windows has advantages and disadvantages.
Logitech needs a closer look. some models are okay, but expensive. Their cheap models are easily breaking after 2 years.
Roccat is usually for large hands.
Zowie is also okay, some like it.

This shoulda help you.

The height of your chair and desk should be right so that holding the mouse-- any mouse-- is comfortable. If they aren't, switching to something else won't help much.

And I'm happy with a Logitech Pro Hero. Great sensor, works well with large hands if you prefer a claw grip. (Someone who wants to use their mouse as a hand rest might want something else; I'd rather rest my hand on the mouse pad or stretch instead.)
I think as long as you have mouse with at least 2 macro buttons on it that should be fine.
