How immersive is your retro experience?
I hope you're not implying that a bunch of collectibles, stickers, manga and a fucking space heater are "immersive". If I really wanted to immerse myself I'd go down to the finished basement in my parents' house, plop my Nintendo and stack of 10 games in front of the TV and sit on the carpet while drinking coke and eating frozen pizza in the dark.

>>12641839>anti-soda faggay and retarded every single. the amish have it right, eat whatever goyslop you want but work hard, get plenty of sun, pray and fast. the amish eat primarily meat, carbs and massive amounts of sugar and they have an obesity rate of less than 5% and a 40% lower risk of cancer than the average person. they frequently eat mcdonalds and order pizza. soda is a staple in amish households. stop blaming your obesity on what you eat/drink and shift focus onto how you live.
I have a modern PC on a plain desk. All my stuff is in storage bins in the attic. I guess I see my old nes era Mario/zelda bedsheets over there by the wall but it’s just sitting there.>Framed pic of Hikaru and Misa. Top and center.Incredibly wholesome. Almost restores my faith in humanity.
I download the manuals and strategy guides (in japanese) from archive.org and use that as my only source of information for a given game. I guess I have a few old game posters on my wall.

>>12641845you can get away with a goyslop diet when you're doing farmer levels of labor everyday. but we would rather inject ourself with peptides that destroy your bones and bowels instead of exercising or not eating like a pig lol
>>12641845I rather eat healthy and be a lazy sack of shit that stays indoors.
>>12641973you're still worse off in the long run. sedentary lifestyles kill. can't healthy-diet your way out of a weak flabby body with poor cardiovascular fitness
>>12641807>heater + rugnice fire hazard
The only thing needed for immersion when emulating is to basically not be an ADHD ridden zoomer and do the following>play fullscreenNo light coming from the sides of your widescreen means less distraction, no light coming from other applications, better immersion. Any emulator that doesn't allow fullscreen (yes, they exist) into the trash it goes>don't alt tab every 30 secsfuck your discord or your 4chan messages, same goes for phones. Turn it off or place it screen face down.>no fastforward / savestatesFF is the biggest immersion breaker there is, especially in regards to music and savestates are a constant reminder you're not really playing the game.That's it. But I can assure (You) some people do all of the above all at once.
>>12641807Good thread anon.I would like to see more pics of MODERN recreations of retro room setups
>>12642141Sadly you don't have to be a zoomer to have fucked up attention
>launch emulator>have a walkthrough for the game on second screen>place a cheap bluetooth speaker that has annoying LED lights right beneath the screen>it plays a podcast about handicapped-accessible liminal spaces by a zoomer who looks like an energy drink can>fast forward the game so I don't have to wait through that super boring intro>use savestates of course>upscale the game to 2k and make it run at 120fps, it's unplayable any other way amiright>I wonder why these timing-based minigames are near unwinnable, better use some more savestates>alt tab out of the game every five minutes to see if anyone updootet my comment on r/retrogaming about some generic PS1 game being an absolute hidden gemScrew your immersion unc, it's gaming time.
>>12642412>recommend Chrono Trigger to a friend>see him play the next week >emulated x1 size window on a laptop>keyboard only>fastforward all the time through combat>since that makes him die, spam save/load state>sound turned off>unrelated music playing at the same time>checking chat messages on another tab>in a third tab a bot is grinding for him in some shitty korean MMORPG which he checks on every 30 secs >while the TV was onTrue story but this was in the late 00's. That would be peak immersion but I guess Chrono Trigger is overrated.
>>12641845>absurd justifications to eat objectively non-nutritious food I accept your concession
