RSI.

As an IT professional i can't stress my wrists any more with gaming after work.
I write for a living and prefer to game on a gamepad for that very reason. You do know you can buy a wireless xbox controller for pc right? That's how I do it I don't think I ever want to be limited by a console.
Though the b******* pricing on pc gear esp GPUs these last two years has made me skip upgrading I probably will keep skipping upgrading For at least another two years or so Or until my 2070 just can't handle it. Fortunately there are dozens of great indie games worth playing that are not taxing graphically.

$28 Xbox 360 controller still works great for me.

Deltahub Carpios are amazing if you have RSI.
Ah thanks man i looked it up, but i'm too far gone for that :(

I'm sure alot of it is genetic, but i used to play competitive CS back in the day, and i would do warmup flash games on missionred with like full tension on my entire arm, i'm sure it did a bunch of damage. Actually wrecked my left arm up to the elbow, switched to right hand and practiced for a year, got good, and wrecked my right arm. So now i'm super conservative with it. Love factorio, when the expansion comes out i'll play it, but in limited doses. Wresting my arms in my lap with a controller is fine, so i switched to consoles a good 10 years ago. I guess i could steam with a controller but at that point i'm just lazy and play on console.
