Comment on Anon wants to talk about video games

Yeah I’m a sim racer, and I suck.

Today I’m playing GT7, tomorrow I’m probably play some GT7 and if I’m getting really frisky next week I might play some GT7.

Gotta git gud.

I used to have a partner who was very into sim racing. I spent a long time being affectionately perplexed at her for it. We once drove a long way to pick up a sim racing wheel that I found on eBay for her. I remember when I tried it out, I was impressed, but in the rather chill way that one would expect from someone who wasn’t invested in sim-racing.

Y’all are silly, but I am glad you have something you care enough about that it makes you this silly. I don’t see it, and it baffles me, but I love the energy.

Yep. “If I’m feeling wild I might drive this other sim because I like the historic layout of the same track I’d otherwise be driving. Looking forward to this new game coming soon…same tracks but new tire/grip model”

VR or non?

GT7 is one of the games where the immersion is both great (you’re just in a car that is moving, so it’s normal to just sit in one place while doing this) but also dissapointing (would be awesome to feel those Gs).

  Non.
  
  I have that lovely ADHD trait of getting excited about a new hobby, spending too much money on gear and then getting bored. So when I decided to give sim racing a go I started with a cheap second hand wheel, pedals and seat from marketplace, my old ps4, GT7 and the TV i already have in the spare room. I promised my wife “No significant spending on this until my birthday or fathers day”.
