I do not understand why "modern gaming" rooms are a sterile mess with LED hexagons and stereotypical acoustic panels for looks... a lowboard with a shiny black or white piano finish... fake plants, more cheap shit like a PSX icon lamp with some of the most generic movie posters framed or Nintendo merch on display. Plus the obligatory pc tower with LED's on everything. CPU cooler, RAM, mainboard, case fans... FUCK.

Pic related. This is how I remember it.

@Reinhard it's because all these content creators have a studio-tier room that they stream in and record videos in. then young people watch those streamers and think that's what a gaming room is supposed to look like. cycle repeats.

@beardalaxy >content creators
Please, I wouldn't call video producers "creators", as that elevates them to the level of deity, when they are not.
They don't produce "content" either, they produce videos. Content is when you are stated with something - it's not possible to be truly sated with a video.

@Reinhard I don't particularity like or dislike RGB computer hardware (aside from the stuff that requires proprietary software to operate) and clear cases, but the cheapest computer hardware that is also acceptable quality (i.e. mouses) seems to always have RGB for some reason.

@Suiseiseki @Reinhard yeah i cringe a bit when saying that but otherwise i'd have to say "youtubers and twitch streamers" or "video makers and streamers" and that's just a mouthful.

and yeah, it is actually really hard to find things that don't have rgb these days. i have my mouse and keyboard just set to a static color. my roommate, who has cheaper stuff, can't change any of his rgb and it is stuck in a rainbow cycle forever.

@beardalaxy It's funny to me how all these normies think someone would watch them play games regardless of theit setup.
