Got a refurbished steelcase for ~300 with no regrets.

Forget about gaming chairs, they’re overpriced for the sake of looking like a racecar seat.

Look at office chairs. For example www.autonomous.ai have good chairs at reasonable prices.

ComicalMayhem, do games w "Dominion of Darkness" - simulator of the evil overlord, I am looking for testers

I’ll take a deeper look at it when I have time. Heads up though, I tried using it through Firefox on Android with dark mode, and the black text blended with the black background, lol. probably not anything to do with your code or whatever though.

Adeptus,

Thanks for Your intetest! Yes, as I wrote on the game site, itch version sometimes doesn't work on the phones with Android. If it is the case, You can play downloadable version: https://www.mediafire.com/file/4zds96slas3uw31/Dominion_of_Darkness_2.55.html/file . It works fine even when online version don't.

I can’t figure out why office chairs run so much more than easy chairs and are so much less-durable.

I got an easy chair quite some years back. I don’t think it even ran $300. At some point, I finally managed to muck up the recliner mechanism, but I’ve probably gone through five office chairs since I got that, some of which cost considerably more than that. The back wouldn’t stay up, or the the pneumatic cylinder would fail, or the mesh would weaken and the front of the chair would press up into legs. The office chairs generally didn’t have a headrest.

Honestly, given that I don’t actually work with paper at my desk, I’d kind of rather have an easy chair with some sort of mounting pole for the monitor and a keyboard/mouse tray.

Others have already recommended it but I want to pitch in; my 8bitdo pro is the best I’ve used (others I have are the DS4, xbox, a few Logitechs including the submarine one, and a fancy-ass Astro).

I’ve been thinking about the same thing. I know that the chairs I’d like to get are like $700-1000, but I can’t justify that cost while not consistently making money (full-time school for now).

I do spend a lot of time sitting at my desk, so I guess if you break down the price by hours in use, it’s not ridiculous to pay so much for a chair that lasts a decade.

Hopefully I can find a solid refurbish for around $400 eventually… but probably not.

You must not have seen my reply in that thread:

My husband and I both have been using Tempur-Pedic office chairs for about 15 years. Starting in 2004, we both worked desk jobs from home (he still does, I only recently shifted careers) and both play video games so we have used the shit out of our chairs, and they are still good. I like that the seat is wide enough so I can fold my legs up under me if I want to.

If you haven’t looked into used office furniture stores near you, I would highly suggest it. Depending on where you live you could get anywhere from 40 to 80% off, and big name $1k retail chairs are built to last 10+ years and are often lightly refurbished at these stores (and they usually can order parts and do repairs in shop)

I’m a fan of the gamesir G7 SE myself. It’s very affordable. The hall effect sticks feel smoother and more responsive. Also they don’t get stick drift which is why I got mine.

n0clue,

I like that it has mic, I’d like wireless but if third party controllers won’t work with Xbox Controller Connector it doesn’t matter as much.

I got the same controller for the same reason after my Elite Series 2 got stick drift. Really responsive sticks and it doesn't feel too cheap even with the lower price.

Don’t skimp on anything that separates you and the ground for a long period of time.

Maybe a cheap office ish chair?

I have an mti chair and its fine. The arm rests suck but if its under 100 euros its a good buy.

Why is 400 even considered for a chair???

bob_lemon,

If you work from home, you’re spending a lot of time in that chair. A good, ergonomic chair can go a long way to mitigate back issues.

sleepybisexual,

Oh.

What still doesn’t explain 1000 euro + chairs tho

How does a chair even gat that expensive? Aaa

I got the Flydigi Vader 3 and i’m very happy with it. The sticks are butter smooth. The buttons are very clicky.

I have an elite, but prefer the 8 bit do ultimate. It’s light but sturdy, comfortable, can toggle to pair with my switch or the PC, and has a cool looking charging dock.

n0clue,

I think I’ll have to try that out.
