      I don’t think a computer screen stimulates vision that much. I mean it’s only 2D, not 3D, a fairly limited range of brightness. It’s always at the same distance from your head so your eyes don’t even need to re-focus. It’s not even that big. I mean you can probably still see your desk with your peripheral vision, so it’s not even needed while looking at a screen… How would that train or improve something?

      I’d do something like go outside and play paintball in the woods, if I wanted to use my peripheral vision.

        What if OP wants to play mahjong on a 200 inch projector screen

          Then all but one argument would still apply. I mean that’d probably be even darker. But OP needed to move their head around, which is… something… I guess? I’d play some spaceship game on that kind of gear, though.

          (And why do inches even extend to 200 when it comes to projectors? While I have to remember additional feet that I’m tall? I don’t get it. But certainly makes the conversion easier.)
