Not these days, but back when I was a kid sure.

Hotline miami makes me shift around in my seat a lot, I tense up so I get uncomfortable.
>>
>>323480678
Not for most games but I do a little bit with Rocket League.
>>
>>323480678
It's a direct result from immersion. Anyone who's truly immersed does this, conciously or not.
>>
>>323481312
It's not immersion, it's called being an autistic faggot.

>>323480678
of what? wearing a skirt while playing video games?

That's gay.

You should give it a try anon. It feels really great.
Especially when your boyfriend comes over and starts fondling you in the middle of the game you're playing
>>
Only with Rocket League. Can't explain it.
>>
yes for flight sims. It's an involuntary thing
>>
Yes. I've done it since the beginning of the 3D era of gaming. Playing my N64 as a kid, I'd always try and look around walls playing games like Mario 64 and Turok even though I knew it wouldn't help anything. I caught myself doing it the other day playing Dark Souls.
>>
>>323480678
Unintentionally while playing Ace Combat. Fucking tunnel sections.
>>
>>323480678
Sometimes I try to look down at my screen to see things below me ingame.
>>
>>323480678
Whenever my friend would sit like that playing games I'd always tickle his feet while he tried to keep playing

I'm guilty of that

Yeah, I tilt my head when I fly in vidya, don't even know I'm doing it half the time.
I used to do the car thing when I was a kid, but I had a moment when I realized I was doing it and stopped ever doing it again.

I've caught myself craning my neck upwards when climbing something in Sly Cooper, and I'm positive I've done similar things for other games.

I just do the basic sit forward position for when shit gets kinda intense.
I do do some dumb shit when I'm by myself.

I do that when I play rhythm games. Particularly on hold notes.

No, pc gaming took out all sense of immersion I had as a consolefag.

>>323480678
Only when I'm on surf servers and I get super into it. I duck my head if I think the character will hit the celing.

i still instinctively dodge when someone attacks me in chivalry unexpectedly.

I usually do spear thrust and sword slash movements while playing Mount&Blade when my unit is riding horseback. The game makes it feel very natural.

They aren't turning their head.
>>
>>323481440
Were you the subject for that conclusion?

>>323485781
I do the same. Whenever I'm ducking something in the game sometimes i'll instinctively duck my head at the same time
>>
I recently found out that when I'm playing fighting games I make stupid faces and expressions.
>>
>>323480678

My 1st videogame was Sonic the Hedgehog for Megadrive and dude I moved the pad like crazy. My 6 years old mind coudln't process what was happening.

I almost throw myself out of my seat playing Rocket League sometimes

No, never. I started playing Prince of Persia on a 286 or something like that. When I picked up a nintendo controller at a friends house never had that issue.

>>323480678
Why is she using a 360 controller on a PS2 slim? I didn't even know that was possible.
>>
I got a friend who does it and it's the funniest shit.

I commented on it once and he just brushed it off as it being habit.

I don't do it myself, but I do find myself tilting my head to see straight when I fly between buildings in GTA.
>>
>>323484021

I totally did this and I was so self conscious of the fact that I was actively ducking. But it it was fun.
>>
Do girls wear skirts when they play video games?

They wear whatever they were wearing beforehand. Sometimes that just maybe a skirt.

>360 controllers were black, had black sticks, and were wired

It's closer to a OG xbox s controller.

Happened more when I was younger. I did nearly break my chair and sent my headphones flying when I was playing Alien: Isolation recently.

It's actually closer to the Wii U Pro controller, since it seems to have both sticks at the top.

Don't do it normally. I recently got into Mario Kart 8 and I had some trouble with "getting" some kart turns so I moved the gamepad like an autist in hope it will produce a narrower turn. I don't do it anymore.

Everyone is saying racing games, flying, and Rocket League.

I only get it when I play Red Orchestra 2. I get a legitimate feeling of stress and panic when I get shot at, and can feel my breathing change in different situations. Not only that, but when I look down my sights and fire at someone, I actually feel emotion.

Red Orchestra 2 is probably the best horror game to come out in recent memory.

IT IS called Immersion... IMAX theaters with a movie with 1st person movement get this effect all the time. If you don't do this either you have something wrong with you or cannot get into the game. Even military RPV pilots lean unconsciously when landing the RPVs.
>>
yes, i also do my own sound effects to the game
>>
>>323495798
This. I also roleplay my own dialogue pretending the player character is my OC traveling across different dimensions, all the while imagining that in the background, other characters from other games I like are doing stuff in the background while my OC saves the world.
