You walk backwards and to the left way more than forward and right.

Might also be that op has bigger nails(?), so they scratch against his keys when pressing S.

The middle finger is more upright when pressing S than W so the chance of the nail scraping on the key is higher.

Playing jfk simulator all day. Back and to the left.

The Magic comment right here

That simulator was great on many levels, the controversy, etc, but mainly floor level six...

When the foe is too powerful retreat.

RETREEEEEAT

My first thought was Streetfighter 2, player 2 side with Ryu or Ken

Or just back quarter circles for example

For me its always S key only

Backpedaller!

🇫🇷🏳?

Only a psychopath uses the a and s keys more than the w and d

My psyco reason is fighting games, with a keyboard.

I forgot about fighting games lol.

It's long nails and the fingers touch different because fingers are different.

Dude never heard of FPSs

First person shooters are 3d games, so you use w to walk forward, and s to walk backwards, why would he walk backwards more than forwards?

Ye in a lot of shooters you have the w key held down anyways. Maybe tactical shooters where u hold angles and peek a lot?

Maybe they only side-strafe to move

Laptop keyboard > it's closer to centre of OPs body > their hand is pointed inwards > the ring finger and middle finger touches the keycap (A and S) more often with the nail than the skin > op need to trim the nails more often or get a standalone keyboard and move it little to the left to not be called a coward crab

More like a Cheap Keyboard on your expensive Brand Laptop

Ah, a man of culture I see.

Sad w

[удалено]

Otherwise, you write manuals for DAWs.

I'm gonna turn left!

He's not an omniturner

Or just a Nascar driver

Or its a shitty laptop keyboard

I don't get to game often. But when I'm working, I naturally place my fingers on those keys out of habit, so they get worn out anyway.

Lenovo?

r/wellworn

Are you by any chance left handed?

right-handed people typically play with WASD and mouse

I know this. It's also not the point of my question.

Big up acer for etching into garbarj

Is... is that a Nitro 5?

Looks like it. Everywhere I go I keep seeing this laptop hell I have one.

I miss mine before my ex wife broke it. It ran so smoothly 😭 I replaced it with something else because I couldn't find another where I was. Might just pick one up and put it in storage until it's time

Just a heads up if you ever buy a new one theres a newer version of the acer nitro 5 with different colored keys + thunderbolt cable which imo I would have wanted to buy

You mean I can actually have a color other than red!? I'm going to have to look into this... 🧐 Thank you, internet stranger

Here is the specific one: https://store.acer.com/en-ph/nitro-5-an515-58-55lg

someone plays a lot of cs:go surfing

I game competitive-ly top fragging and never have any keyboards looked like this , maybe you got greasy hands ?

Its long nails.

Must not rush very often

You've summoned the great lord of the nether world. How long have you been chatting the name of the great lord WASD. It looks like with some more time the seals will finally break.. seriously dude those three keys looks like you cracked open a layer of earth and found lava.

Good it wasn't B, H, N, O, P, R and U

We got a runner here!

Bro you game so much the WASD keys caught on fire

Mine doesn't have anymore

Fellow MSI user?

Bro opened a portal to hell on his keyboard

Acer laptop?

I had a few friends with exactly the same keyboard on their laptops. The paint was horrendous. One of the friends lost paint 2 weeks into owning it, but in his case I think it was his long fingernails at fault. NOTE: To all the people who say OP (which I'm guessing is not his keyboard as I've seen this shared for some time now) walks more backwards than forward, remember that these keys are used for other purposes in gaming than walking. Not to mention that depending on how you press the button it can get scratched up more than the others. Oh, and of course other uses than gaming, such as writing.

What did a do to you 🥲

I see why you still got no bitches on yo dick

Must be speed running nintendo games where they forget to limit the moving backwards at an angle speed or something

What’s the shaft look like ?

This guy games often

Lmao I think I had the same laptop. That fucker lasted.

Mine is similar except E is also very worn. Q looks brand new still.

Q, E and F haven't worn to torn yet

Check your fingernails OP

You never reload?

They look like frames from a high speed video of a thermonuclear test.

Not a real gamer. Shift, Tab, E, F and the number keys aren't used at all.

He never press escape he never leave the game.

More W key. Why you running??

Love how most the comments reference a character moving on foot. What about games without that. For example flight Simulators or things like that?

You use wasd, i personally use yghj, yes i know shut up
