Keyboard. All controllers are abomination unto God and are going to damage your wrists sooner or later.
Looks like you're a fellow PC enjoyer. Although, I'd say depending on the keyboard and how your arm and wrist are positioned, a keyboard can do the same thing.
I'm pc exclusively and can't image gaming on a keyboard and mouse.
I've never had wrist pain from a controller, but it's every time with a keyboard.
Sure, but there's a possibility to find good keyboard, that won't ruin your wrists. The design of a controller, paired with the fact that they are usually used for extended amounts of time makes them inherently unhealthy. There's no controller that won't add to wrists' wear out.
This picture is possibly banned by the church, and I love it.
How much does this weigh- is this even practical? I know it’s a meme (I hope) but I’m also curious.
I have no ihea how much it weighs, but it was real. Apparently very useful for Phantasy Star Online, it might even have been indended for it but I can't be sure.
I forgot this thing existed lmfao
That… what? Surely that’s not a thing?
Unfortunately, it is.
Sauce? 😬

I mean the “controllers are gonna ruin your wrists” thing.
Oh, haha. I missed the top level comment and thought it was just in response to the pic.
But emulating console games built around a controller using M+KB is so uncomfortable.
Your health, or your fun.
