It's mobile and can be completely removed because my battlestation is, unlike most gaming rigs, also my workstation and has to move a lot. It's also frequently occupied by my kids who also love clicky buttons and compete with me for stick time :D
Have not played E:D in what feels like an eternity, but this is making me remember the beautiful times I had with it. And the setup really looks awesome!
I just visited your website. I like it a lot, the articles are really interesting! Was a good read so far. And you know what? We might be living pretty close, I just saw your post about Ludwigsburg. As someone living near Pforzheim I know the place a bit. Also I found an article about Fly Dangerous. And that was really a surprise to me. I know the game because I am an admin on a gamedev discord server called SoloDevelopment and Jukibom (the developer) is there too. What a small world!
