best one i have is my bed or this cruddy chair i almost cracked leaning over it lol
Any chair is a gaming chair if you're comfortable enough, no joke.
People who are full-time streamers and game 8 hours a day because it is their job have a good pretext to shell out on an extremely comfortable chair, "gaming chair" or otherwise. Most people who game for maybe a few hours at a time, when they feel like it, it's really not a big deal. When I game (and even when I stream) I sit on a plastic deck chair. It's not that comfortable, but it doesn't need to be.
Most products that use "gaming" as an adjective are overpriced. I do like the style of chair, although they don't seem to work for everybody. But yeah you can get a really nice office chair for like a third of the price, so unless you have cash to burn and really like the feel of a "gaming" chair specifically, it's probably not the best investment you can make.
A good office chair from Office Depot/Staples or Costco honestly.
Gaming chairs look designed to break
I don't know, I think that they are very comfortable, I have less back problems since I use one
Update: The plastic deck chair broke. It was always a piece of shit, I don't really mind :D
In my opinion gaming chairs are really comfortable, if you don't pass a lot of time in front of the pc/desk you really don't need them and you can use a normal one, but if you do it seems to sit in one of those sport cars with super comfortable seats.
Unlike me, I really like gaming chairs, I like the way the back cushion pitch is adjustable, especially when a person has a lot of back pain. The massage button was a blessing, I have connected it to my portable charger and now I have a portable massage, which is great, as well as someone on the slightly shorter side (5'2 ") I like that I can adjust the back and head cushion according to my preference. It is very comfortable
