[3-5-1] Can I use my mouse?

Wondering if your trusty mouse works with Quake? As your guide, I'll walk you through how to get your mouse set up and ready to frag in the classic shooter.

Alright, so you're diving into Quake and wondering if your mouse is going to play nice with it. The short answer is: absolutely! Quake was built with mouse aiming in mind, so you're good to go. Think of your mouse as your primary weapon here; it's how you'll aim, turn, and generally survive. You'll be using it for pretty much everything, from lining up those perfect shots to quickly dodging an attack. There's no special trick to getting it working, just plug it in and launch the game. It should just work out of the box. If for some wild reason it's not responding, make sure it's properly connected and that your computer recognizes it. Sometimes a quick restart of the game or your PC can sort out any weirdness. But honestly, your mouse is your best friend in Quake, so get comfortable with it!
