Head_Hunter Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 No one can do that for long, you can stand for some time, maybe due to the pressure of playing with AI or real human being made the gamer to stand up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't spend a lot of time gaming, therefore, I do not have any issues with sitting position. Sitting for too long is a big worry for me and I think that I read somewhere it may cause one to develop pile health issues. I have never had that but it sounds scary. It's why I try not to sit for too long playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Standing too long also has its own negative effect, which can cause dead leg, and make the leg to suffer pains later after spending hours standing. I love playing and sitting down all through. I only stand up coincidental, I wouldn't expect it and it just happened, and I have to accept it, it is mostly influenced by pressure.

If you are sitting on a reclining chair, you might be hurting your back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 I wonder why I'll be playing on a reclining seat, that means I am forcing persistent beck pains after long duration of time playing video games on such kind of seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are sometimes when I wouldn't feel my thumbs for a while that I even had to beat it in order to have proper blood circulation in it 😂.

Justin11 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I'm planning on getting a gaming chair that I'll relax comfortable with, and not standing, or shifting my positions while playing my favourite games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how comfortable the seat is, if I sit too long than I should be, it's my bum that would start paining me before my back would follow as well. It's why I play in moderation to avoid getting unnecessary pains. Boblee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game isn't even running away or something, so why put unnecessary stress and pressure on yourself? It doesn't make any sense at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Nope - not at all - I always prefer to sit down as it I'm more comfortable playing the game like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmin Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I don't spend 5-6 hours straight while gaming. I play games for 1-2 hours. When I feel discomfort in my sitting or lying position, I stop gaming and start stretching my body. I even abandon gaming if the discomfort is persistent.

I have even laid down when playing but that's mainly when my sleep is calling me so bad and I still pay deaf ear to it. I would force myself to lay down a bit and most of the time, I sleep off playing in that situation. Boblee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for me, provided I'm sitting comfortably, I wouldn't feel pains, but it doesn't mean I'll play for 10 hours daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always curse myself whenever I slept off playing games when I knew very well that I was already tired and should have hit my bed sooner. It's a very stupid thing for me to do.

Clasher Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 There was this time I was playing FIFA 22 with some friends and we made a bargain that who ever loses the match gets to pay for our drinks on the next outing, nearly 85 minutes into the game and we still had a 1 - 1 score Margin the game got so heated up I had to stand till the end, I won it anyways 2 goals to 1... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
