Jokes aside, I remember watching a video where some pro gamer (Starcraft maybe?) showed off where he learned to play, and it was basically sideways on a crowded credenza in the kitchen.

Gaming will, uh, find a way.

Office chairs have always been, and probably will always be, the way to go

Yeah, gaming chairs aren’t great for being comfy since they are modelled after race seats which are made to make you focus

IrateAnteater,

It’s one step stupider than that. Race seats are not made for helping you focus, they’re made to keep you physically in place during high g-force situations.

Carnelian,

Gamer force?

Then that’s even more stupid 😭

BillyClark,

I recall in the early dotcom days there were companies who thought every person needed to have a Herman Miller chair. Silly thought but they are comfy.

My first computer chair once I was living on my own in 96. Oh and it only had 3 legs.

Before I moved out it was a vinyl covered high backed dining room chair I had rescued from the dump when I was 10 or so. My dad and I made a new seat for it from carpet padding and covered it with fake leather.

I loved that chair and the only reason I did not move out with it, is because it did not fit in the back of my VW.

Yes. And Grandma made you a cushion for it since you were in it so much. and she cares about you.

I’m shopping for a home office chair I’ll also use for gaming and it sucks. Basically no stores carry samples in store anymore and those who do only carry those bucket seat atrocities. I’m ->||<- this close to just getting a big ol’ lazboy from a relative or something. And I don’t have cash for a Herman Miller or whatever.

As a teenager, I had a nice old easy chair I used when computing, until one of our cats started pissing on it. Couldn’t get the stink out, so I had to trash the chair. Fucking cat, I liked that chair. He never did it to anyone else. Well, except he pissed in my friend’s shoe for some reason.

Any chair is a gaming chair if you game while sitting in it.

CheeseNoodle, do games w What is immersion to you?

I think a big one to me is when the world doesn’t revovle around me, when things happen without player input because the player isn’t the centre of the universe. Every NPC just wating in stasis or walking on a preset loop forever until I hit the next event trigger really kills immersion.

I only know a couple of games that do this:

Stalker: Anomaly X4: Foundations Dwarf Fortress

Edit: Forgot Saelig.

I like my office chair. I have also been known to sit in a folding chair or kitchen table chair. Can’t stand “gaming chairs”. I sit in those things like a shrimp, and mangle my spine.
