Do gamers actually like the look of gaming computers and accessories? (lemmy.ml)

Sometimes I wonder what the thought process behind the gaming aesthetic was. RGB (*if tunable) itself is fine and adds a nice opportunity for personalization, but are those tacky fonts, crystal-facet enclosures, and overall showiness just tasteless or do any gamers actually prefer that look?

Im 40, I have a mortgage, a boring and safe car, a stable union government job and Ive been married for 10 years.

Having my computer make pretty lights is one tiny glimmer of my youth left in my life and if you want to make me feel bad about that, you are a cunt.
