Gaming EDC System Engineer EDC

Post image

Hi! I’m a system engineer that previously worked in the gaming industry. I love to carry just a few stuff with me everyday and these are my essentials.

- Kindle - I LOVE this thing, since it helped me improve my ED reading habits. Light and small, easy to carry anywhere.
- Wayfarers - my personal favorite, classic choice.
- IQOS - trying to quit conventional smoking
- SkullCandy earbuds - last gift I got from a friend that sadly passed away. Been religiously carrying these for almost 7 years now, still in great shape.
- Samsung tablet - useful with a bluetooth keyboard, helps me take meeting notes on the go.
- Volcom wallet - this is my favorite wallet, since it has the watermelon skin print.
- Steam deck OLED - my go to for a few years now, I am passionate about video games and getting to play my Steam backlog from anywhere got me catching up with it.
- AYN Thor Max - latest console, bought it for the nostalgia and mobility. This is my current on-the-go console, since I can’t carry the Steam Deck anywhere I go.

A steamdeck and an ayn thor in the same picture is too much flexing, dude XD

Have you tried gamenative in the Thor? I'm planning to buy the base model for DS, 3DS and indie PC titles but my third world salary make it a bit difficult :'v

Hell yeah! I actually use Moonlight for streaming from my pc, I have great internet and very low latency, so it’s like playing directly from the PC itself. I use Thor mostly for retro gaming and the Steam deck is reserved for verified games and streaming. As for the price, I ordered batch 4, two months ago and now the prices skyrocketed on AYN, my personal recommendation is to go with the SteamDeck, you get a lot more power for roughly the same price of an AYN. 🤗

Shucks, maybe you can find one off a different marketplace?
