I think that many games are demanding, but unnecessarily so due to poor original design. But, if you consider that the original Harpoon 2 forerunner released in 1994 (when Windows was fairly new and right mouse buttons did not exist for many), then you can see how far ahead they were planning. In general, your right hand controls the mouse for map adjustments while the left hand pretty much activates all the hotkeys. The real difference is that the hotkeys actually make things happen and send orders to the game. Most games with poor interfaces have hotkeys that only pull up displays and issue no orders whatsoever. At this time, I am helping another individual enter the world of H3. He is well experienced in UI design and also sees the bold attempts made by H3 in terms of the user interface, in a time when the tools were so limited. You can feel free to ask your questions at the site which you find most convenient. Harpoon for Dummies (https://www.youtube.com/user/HarPlonked) and HarPlonkHQ (http://www.harplonkhq.com/forum/index.php) exist to serve Players and will help all those who ask. We do not encourage players to leave their favorite sites like SubSim to seek help. We will come to you, if we can, and try to monitor most sites. The only advantage of HarPlonkHQ is that you can attach files up to 15mB in size, for any questions you may have.

I understand that the question I asked here may have put you in an awkward position, but obviously that wasn't my intention by any means. I also didn't want to show any sign of disloyalty towards the site here, I just thought it might be against the netiquette here to start a thread regarding HUCE and then just keep filling it with a content that refers to something else. Thanks for the answer again, I should resurface soon at most suitable place to carry on my investigation.
