Stylus or sans?
How many people on PC use their stylus where a stylus use is optional. Such as Battles, Menu Screens and sometimes on the over-world map?
Do you find it useful or a hindrance and explain why. |
A hinderance since it get's in the way and is unnecessary. Using your fingers is much quicker and more efficient. It's like eating pizza without a knife and fork and using your hands instead: less effort required.
I'm lazy. |
Using a stylus is kinda slow for me. It's way easier not using the touch screen at all, at least for me.
|
I don't use the stylus much because I'm lazy. But there are times when I do use the stylus, like screwing around with one of my Poketch apps or when I'm making Poffins.
|
I hope this isn't just me, but I always have to use the stylus when using the bottom touchscreen. For me, I can't stand having dirty screens whether it be on my laptop, desktop, ipod whatever. So whenever I do need to use the touch screen, I never use my fingers and only use my stylus. But if I've lost it, I just use the directional buttons and whatnot to play the game, and move on from things that I might want to do involving the touch screen.

I never use my stylus because I lost it.

I swap quite often, but I'm usually fine going without the stylus (but I do sometimes use my fingernail to select options anyway).

I mostly don't use my stylus, usually the only times I use it is when I'm dressing up Pokemon/making Poffins.
|
I always use my stylus rather than my finger/buttons for using the bottom screen. Maybe it's just because the first thing I do when I play my DS is pull the stylus out and keep holding onto it, so I'd never think twice about having to use it.
|
I swap it up.
Sometimes I use buttons, sometime the stylus, and even my fingers d: |

But on the subject, my sister users her fingers all the time. |

But I still use my fingers instead of the stylus, although I still use the stylus when precision is required like stirring poffins. I don't get fingerprints over my DS screen though, because I have a screen protector from my DS :D http://swiftor.com/attachments/f7/12581d1336239730t-reggie-e3-2012-1912-so-much-win.jpg |
I perfer to use a stylus. But i cant always find one. And sometimes it's hard to hold the screen up (one of my hinges broke) hold a stylus, use it, and press buttons.
|
For HG/SS I'll use the stylus most of the time since those games are pretty stylus oriented. But for the others I'll use the d-pad and then the stylus when necessary. I hate using my fingers and refuse to since it ruins the screen. :(
|
I never use my stylus, except for nicknaming Pokemon since it's quicker to tap than move the d-pad around. I also tap the attack commands with my finger sometimes because I multitask often, but BLAH too much effort to pull out the stylus.
|
The menu and other interface buttons are typically big enough to just use my fingers, so I hardly pull my stylus out. The only time I really use the stylus is for mini-games and such (e.g. mixing poffins or Pokeathlon events)
|
I 100% of the time use a stylus; but that's probably because I made my own like a major sir.

I thought I wouldn't use it much when I first got my DS Lite but surprisingly I use it all the time, it's especially useful with the SS menu :)
|
Oh gosh, I haven't had a stylus in like 5 years haha. That being said, I don't need one anymore, never really used it to begin with. They were always really thin and hard to hold in my opinion.
|
Nahhh I don't use the stylus that much.
I only used it in the dress ups and Poffin making and thats about it |
