Or from the car or in bed under the covers.
I feel attacked (currently scrolling from the toilet)
(Upvoting from toilet)
I need to take a shit and I’m sad I can’t take my game with me (I don’t have a steam deck).
(currently scrolling from the throne) Fixed that for you
“Gaming Chairs” are for idiot consumers. Office chairs are where it’s at. Office chairs are designed to be sat in for 8+ hours a day.
You want a chair that makes it look like you’re about to lay off the bottom 10% performers.
Some folks like bottom performers. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I tried so many different office chairs, they all sucked. Even the more expensive ones. But the “secret labs” gaming chair was perfect. Gives whatever support my fucked up spine needs, has the right mix of cush but firm. And the little magnetic pillow is in the perfect spot. It was very expensive but worth it to me.
Most gaming chairs are memes tho I’ll say
My office chair is a gaming chair (seems fine), my gaming chair is the sofa and a big pile of cushions (and the bog, of course)
My office chair and gaming chair are both the same office chair. I swap the same monitor’s connection between my work laptop and pc depending on time of day.
It’s a bite to the wallet to get a decent chair, but definitely worth it, and can still be done for sub-$1000 too.
Find a good used office supply company. You can find top notch chairs like aerons that have a scratch or ding for half the price. They are usually good with single customers for these lightly used chair.
The better office chairs have 10+ year warranties, if you spread out the cost of buying a cheap chair (£150) every 2 years Vs a £1000 one that lasts 10 years its not such a huge difference in price whilst the benefits to your back are worth much more.
I know not everyone can afford this, but it’s worth checking for interest free credit from either the manufacturer, store, or even PayPal / klarna (which is what I did).
I read a few months ago about a US senator who was new to the position, formerly lived in less than ideal circumstances, made the news for becoming a senator while not being born into wealth. Anyway, they were surprised at the options they had for medical insurance, and how affordable they were, and how much they covered, and in general how much better these options were. Before becoming a senator, the same medical coverage would have cost an order of magnitude or two more.
Anyway, fuck the rich, then eat them.
I managed to get my whole family some really good office chairs because a local business chucked them all in a local dumpster. Most of them just needed to have the foot-rests removed to be completely perfect. I looked them up, and they are all $600+ chairs brand new. Dumpster diving has always been fun :)
I’m not getting it but those gaming chairs look like racing car chairs. I didn’t think those seats were particularly comfortable either because I thought they kept you in place when things you’re zipping around?
They’re not comfortable, they’re fashionable. You pay extra to be hip with it.
I just play PC games on my couch.
Steam link fpr the win. You can play your pc games on the loo as well!
I used to love steam link, I bought one and loved it so I bought another one for a firend.
Somewhere along the way Valve changed how it worked. I was no longer able to play my games. I was exclusively playing non-steam games through my steam link, btw. I think it had to do with how steam interpreted inputs from a controller while steam thought you weren’t in a game.
I still have it, although I no longer have a tv so resolving my problems with steam link won’t do any good.
99 percent of “office chairs” are the same poorly constructed garbage that “gaming chairs” are. Actually good chairs are 400-1000+ which most people cannot afford unfortunately.
I have a wooden dining table chair. It swivels, there is no cushion at all. Every time I think about replacing it, I look at what a gaming good gaming chair costs and I say “nah, I’m good”.
THE PORCELAIN THRONE!
I did not come to sit and wonder
I have come to SHIT LIKE THUNDER!
Mobile players do it on the go. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
“We play on the throne”
As a lifelong PC gamer, I plug in my PC wherever I want it. It’s currently plugged into my TV…
…Gathering dust while I sit in front of it using my steam deck
Why is there a toilet in the gaming room and in the living room in the first two pictures?
The joke is that handheld gamers can play anywhere, well at least with this edit. The original only had him on the toilet.
I took this as “i play on a gaming chair, couch, or anywhere else” or maybe “steamdeck is a pc, console, and handheld”
I started using Steam Link to switch between all those choices, ultimate freedom
Been PC gaming on the couch for years now, either using a controller, trackball and 75% keyboard or a steam controller. Mouse pads are for work only as far as I’m concerned.
Disgusting. I have never and will never use my phone or a gaming console in the bathroom. I go to the bathroom, and then fucking leave. I’ll never understand sitting there forever.
So glad for you to have properly functioning bowels. You’re among the lucky ones and should just be grateful and shut the fuck up
I envy your guts. I wish mine were as good as yours.
nice touch adding the toilet to the office and parlor.
You people use the backbuttons?
Always, when a game tries to force me to use a stick-click to sprint or I need to perform an action with ABXY while turning via right stick/pad.
Their positioning is sadly uncomfortable for me, since I do enjoy the ones on my modded ps5 controller.
There’s bumpers you can add to raise up the back paddles. I wonder if those might help.
I’ve been begging for such buttons since fucking 2009, and everyone laughed at me for wanting customizable controls.
Look who’s laughing now. (it’s me, with my mouse and keyboard and lack of friends and I never need to touch a controller again!)
Bold of you to assume I didn’t build my battlestation around the shitter.
If you go to the bathroom you’re not playing Battlefield
