Having a fan blow into your face really helps too. I cant play more than 10 or 15 minutes without one, but with I'm fine for hours.

Which kind of fan do you use?

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 8 points 9 months ago

Anybody really. Young, old, helps if they're taller

If a game uses smooth locomotion, instead of teleportation based movement, I cannot play it without air blowing into my face, or sometimes been at all. Otherwise I have no issues at all
