A fan of Skyrim has said goodbye to his keyboard and is now using a potato as an input device. No joke.
Don’t play with your food – or should you?
It’s the weekend, so it’s time for some rather quirky news. Have you ever been insulted in a style like “You play like a potato”? While most people would probably be angry about that, YouTuber BOOM, LLC Robotater might actually appreciate such words. He has done many crazy things on his channel, and now he has put a new twist on the game Skyrim.
As playing on a keyboard is becoming less fashionable, Robotater has built a controller out of potatoes. No, this is not a silly insider joke or pun; he has actually connected his keyboard to several potato halves. You should check out how it looks when playing.
The video is also celebrated in the comments:
- “People say that virtual reality, hololens, and augmented reality are the future. I say: No.”
- “I played Skyrim on a potato a long time ago. It was called Xbox 360.”
- “The scientists were so busy asking whether they could, that they forgot to ask whether they should.”
- “You, sir, deserve a potato.”
So far, it has been common on the internet to dismiss people in games who complain about stuttering with the sentence “Are you playing with a potato as your PC?” – now we know: Some people really do that.
