Rotate your keyboard 90 degrees.
A - Forward
S - Backward
W - Right
Z - Left
Your thumb can reach most of the numbers and most of the second and third row with ease, without having to move your three off of WAZ for movement, your pinky can also use alt or spacebar.
This is how I've been playing PC games for years. This is the best way to play PC games.

That pinky is too long.
Nah it’s not gay or whiny enough. I’m going with Asian or Hindu
A Sony movie thread died for this.
he's brazilian
Try it out, you'll see that your pinky is in the perfect position.
I have a laptop user, what do I do?
This
This is the dumbest shit I've heard all day. And I've read a lot of consolewars threads today.
Stick to point and click adventures. Why are you using a laptop for serious gaming?
My fingers reach all of those buttons except my thub only reaches 6.
Are you blind? That hand clearly belongs to an injun.

any pc gamers remember this keyboard? wasdsucks.com
funny how it never caught on. most of us have to type sentences too
can't you bend your thumb?.....
I'm a lefty.
Wow
Rotate keyboard anticlockwise instead....
good example of a terrible idea with ridiculous amounts of investment and marketing

i play with ESDF instead of WASD as it gives me more keys to work with and doesn't force me squashed down one end of a keyboard while wasting the other half, and i thought i was a weirdo
but this is something else
Have to bend my middle finger in an uncofmortable position and most fingers are way too close to one another, arm position is also not great. Overall it's far from perfect, but honestly I thought it would be way more discomfortable. Also, another negative is randomly clicking other keys with your palm.
I actually play with my keyboard almost 90 degrees rotated, it's more like 70 degrees, super diagonal
>TFW you WASD place at your normal wagecuck office job
How do you deal with your arm resting on the rest of the keys?
do you still use WASD or ESDF?
t. pinkylet
if you don't game on this you're basically a tranny
my arm/elbow is resting on the table to the side and I never have rested my palms on the table or any other part of the keyboard, so not a problem for me.
I rotate it 180º and play guitar hero instead
I bet some faggot recorded himself doing a Dark Souls run with it.
I do. Someone even commented on it once.
Yeah, that's what he said retard. Congratulations on learning how to quote, you fucking idiot.

Ah yes, I love remapping the controls in every single game I play.
>fucking idiot
If you're that much of a casual gamer that you can't be bothered to remap the controls, just stick to a console.
>on the table to the side
What, like this? how is that comfortable?

Same here.
He weren't judging btw. He just wondered if I were winning in Excel.
don't think it helped but still works ok
OP here. My desk is much bigger, and your arm position is wrong. Pic related is what I do.
>nobody itt uses AERG
Plebs. Try for yourself, your fingers lay on those keys naturally
I use WASD
Which is forward and which is backward...
>no F2
>no W
shit keyboard
No they don't. My fingers sit on WAD, Ctrl and Spacebar naturally
Shift and Spacebar because i have tiny hands
Doesn't matter, you choose. I like to use R as forward E and G as left and right and A as back.
That's until you try another layout
You guys ready for monday?
It's much more comfortable than WASD or ESDF, I'll give you that. Personally, I would use Q34T, and use the bottom row of letters in place of the numbers with quick access using my thumb, then I wouldn't have to take my fingers off the movement keys.
Your wrist is still on half the keyboard.
I don't rest my wrist on the keyboard, all the weight is on my elbow.
>having to work on labor day
whew lad my office job isnt that great but it's not that fucked
That's a pretty good idea, never thought of that. It takes some getting used to, but once you get used to it there's no going back, it's much better
I use the arrow keys
>AERG
It's RAGE
Also it's awesome
Enjoy your sticky keys nigger
i do and i'm the fastest person around. i'm already quite fast on average, so i'm basically the flash to an office of middle-aged women and old men.
>master race
make way for god race !
I naturally do that to every keyboard ever now no matter what. Fuck my gay teachers who told me I gotta "stay on the home keys user". Yeah well suck my dick your class was boring and our games sucked.
I could see this kind of keyboard working as a standalone from the normal keyboards out there.
Just nix the Numpad (because who really uses that for anything other than computing or accounting), slap on an aesthetically pleasing "gamer" setup, and we're gucci.
>here's your controller bro
What the actual fuck?
...
WTF is this shit?
Ahem. NIGGER!
this is bs
my thumb can reach 5-8
You better have a good memory....
Like little babies.
>ring finger is longer then index finger
>that pinky finger thats longer then the index finger
WHO THE FUCK HAS A HAND LIKE THIS?
>having options to map controls exactly how you like it is a bad thing
Imagine being this fucking retarded
>no stick
i know most of you post ironic pics but is the ultimate gaming "interface"
sadly it is constantly sold out and cost now 220 euro bucks because of the high demand
OP here, you guys do realize my hand isn't flat on the keyboard....
>I don't rest my wrist on the keyboard, all the weight is on my elbow.
rip in peace
Your ring finger is supposed to be longer than index, unless you have low testosterone.
You’re not OP
>Congratulations on learning how to quote
What kind of trickery is this. I'm pretty sure I am....
>spent most of my childhood/teen years playing RTYG because of some weird ass config my pirated doom copy came with
>got used to WASD when LAN places started being a thing out of fucking lazyness
in retrospect, I don't really miss those days
No but I bought one of the newer models years ago and still use it to this day.
>no stick
I would imagine you'd just ditch the one of the hands for a mouse.
You still have 25 keys at one hand, with zero finger-reaching required, and a fan-cooled palm rest.
needs you to re-position your fingers, no cooling, and only 23-24 inputs, though using a stick over WASD has both pros and cons (better control over movement speed, worse precision for perfect-straight or 45° angle movement).
Fuck you, our pinkies aren't that big.
I'm a very petite woman with my pinky being 5.3cm short (Yes, I measured it sans finger nail) and yet I have been using ESDF movement instead of WASD for almost a decade now.
Whenever I tell people I use ESDF on all PC games I play, people get really agitated and tell me ESDF sucks. The main reason is always "You can't reach shift/ctrl/tab" which is bullshit because if I can with my small child-like hand and short fingers, other people, especially men can do it.
ESDF opens up QAW and TY(Z)H to use as inputs which is incredibly useful. WASD is very limiting because you only have Q and TG available without having to move your hand away from the movement keys.
Pic is my hand on my laptop keyboard (sorry, I don't own the best phones with a good camera), but I can also reach ctlr/shift/tab on regular bigger keyboards as well with ease because they were designed to be reachable for the 10-finger typing method.
Have people that are against ESDF movement even tried playing games with ESDF? Why do you prefer the inferior WASD movement?
Actual subhuman
This looked retarded but I tried it out anyway and there really is something to it. I had my thumb over the space bar, and my pinky on the numbers. You can slide the hand up and down to your preference; my pinky hovers between 6 and 7. Apparently people thought WASD was retarded until some guy dominated in Doom or Quake tournaments or whateverthefuck the game was.
Tits or GTFO
Brilliant.
pretty comfy
>those knuckles and nail width
>woman
I know a fucking man hand when I see one, nice try tranny fag.
you have fat fingers
This would actually be better for lefties since your thumb rests on the spacebar the same as normal. I'd unironically see my self using it if I didn't have to unbind all the keys where my arm would rest and if I didn't have a laptop
OP here. I rotate my keyboard the other way because I prefer having access to a lot of keys with my thumb. Give it a try.

this looks painful, and is definitely bad for your carpals
OP here. I tried it the other way. It's not bad. Thumb resting on space bar and I can still access two rows of keys. I'll give this a try tomorrow.
There are no games in which having these few extra bindings matter unless you play subhuman shit like mobas or mmos.
And if you're at that point, just get a fucking mouse with multiple buttons.
Thumb on space bar is more natural to me since that's where I place it with WASD too.
>carpals
I mean, it feels fine, no pain. What should I be doing differently?
>having to keep your wrist raised whenever you play
>or having to rest your hand on your keyboard keys
>or bending your wrist awkwardly for hours

No way
It’s labor day in the first world

but that's in like 8 months
Do people seriously rest their wrists when they use a keyboard?
you mean tomorrow
tomorrow is May 1st where you live? i don't think thats how the international date line works
PLEASE BE MY GIRLFRIEND
user, calm down, take 10 deep breaths and look at those fucking bulbous fingers
now reconsider your wish
IJKL CHADS WHERE WE AT
Do you not rest your hand when playing video games?
uh no. My elbows are resting on the table and my fingers are touching the keys. My hands don't really get tired....

Chaotic neutral: the image
i'm over 6ft and even my fingers begin to hurt when trying to reach ctrl this way, you must be masochistic or enjoy doing things just to be obtuse
i literally cannot type with my right hand. i just never use it for precise dexterity. i play guitar so my right hand is strumming, i write left handed, and ive using wasd so long that my right hand is in the dust with no hope of catching up. i do 6 finger typing and it fucking works
wtf? youre supposed to be using your wrist and forearm for hitting more keys you retard.
have you ever met a woman
what if you want q and e for leaning

Lmao, games are literally for children
I rotated my phone to view this thread.

you mean Z, X, C, V, R, F, Q, 1, 2 ,3 ,4? T and B if you have a big hand.
Like this?

Don't be ridiculous. Who in their right mind would use the powerglove for PC gaming.
How stupid
Are you fags so bad with your hands that you can't use 1-0 and F1-F12? Lmao, no dexterity
I bet y'all suck at piano too HAHAHA plebs
In OPs pic you can keep your fingers on direction keys while pressing 1-0 and F1-F12. Can you press these without your fingers leaving WASD or ESDF?
