This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Gaming on a TV sucks and gaming with a controller sucks for majority of game genres. What's life without strategy games.

Gaming on a TV is amazing if you buy one designed for gaming. Get a good recliner. Keyboard in lap, mouse on armrest (or end table). You'll never want to go back to a desk ever again. Trust me, I've been computing this way for over a decade now. Fuck desks and shitty overpriced office chairs that give you back pain.

Do you have a photo of this kind of setup? I'm very curious how it all looks like

LMAO you're not far off. For authenticity, I promise that I only partially staged this pic.

Ok that looks fucking comfy. I am inspired to get a good recliner now.

It really is. Great for gaming cause you can just crank the FoV to around 115-120° and have a fully-immersive experience. And say goodbye to having to lean forward to see the action.

I case you didn't see my other comment, Here are some different angles if you're interested.

It's hard to get a good shot of the entire setup due to poor lighting, but here you go. Had to do a panorama to make it all fit. The TV doesn't look washed-out in person BTW; it's an OLED.

Cat tax.

Edit: Sorry for the imgur link, but every time I try to upload an image to Lemmy, it breaks.

Edit 2: Some different angles for the interested. Did minimal cleanup for authenticity.
