  • The thrash/trad vest I have I made myself (from someone else’s pattern though), diy is always good. Plus you can customise it, I did some flannel lining in places. Thrift or upcycle works just as well.

    Bonus points for hand painted patches too, that’s beyond my ability but it’s def a thing, I just messed around with different stitching, a lot are hand sewn with stuff that’s like thick dental floss becauae I like the look, looks a lot better on my black/death vest though, studs/spikes aren’t my preference so I don’t have those.

    There’s a bunch of different looks, different groups have their own style, depends on what you want to do, could go as far as some crust/patch pants or stick with the classic blue denim and band shirt look, shit I’ve seen flannel or military jackets turned into battle vests, just make it your own. I’ve always worn work boots to shows, that’s just what I have.

    TL:DR, to me, diy is the point and historically a big part of the culture, do what you think looks cool.


  • Oled is noticeable larger, on paper it’s only 0.4"diagonally but it’s obvious having my lcd deck beside my partner’s oled one, plus the oled one just looks a lot nicer. I’ve had more issues personally with some games not letting me scale down the ui, rimworld is totally playable on the deck but I find the interface gets in the way.

    Steam deck xl could be an idea but you’d probably have some weight/ergonomics issues. Deck itself already dwarfs my switch lite (and is more comfortable to use…), do find I prefer some games on a larger screen, but it does usually work well at the distances I hold it.
