Govee Gaming Wall Light: A Marvel of Design and Functionality

The faceplate is also replaceable and offers multiple design options, allowing for customization from any perspective.

Yep just what the world needs...moar over-hyped, over-priced rainbow circus puker thingies to light up them gamrz lives....

FYI/PSA, I know the outside world & natural sunlight can be scary, but you really should try it sometime

I have a govee kit new in box still. dreamview, lightbars, camera, strips

good stuff I dont remember what I paid for it

 

[Frick]

At first I thought the box was a case and that is definitely something I could get behind. Not buy, but I like when cases have actual colours, instead of black/transparent+RGB.

 

[Leiesoldat]

Why Evangelion all the time though? Why not Gundam which I find much more aesthetically pleasing.

Govee whole business depends on the sun setting down though, even for the outside

I get that Shinji's mech is the most iconic / main-character of the show.

But for computers, I'd rather have Seele's color scheme.

AT Field Hexagons sound nice actually. Are there any pictures of those?

--------

Honestly, I always liked the AT Field aesthetic of Evangelion. If they had a demo of their AT Field-effects, I'd be interested.

If I had to sit in that disturbing, dystopian environment, or anything even remotely close to it, I'd just shoot myself & be done with it

Lol. i dunno what I was expecting.

Its freaky looking now that you've got the picture. But AT Fields always looked freaky like that. I think they actually nailed the aesthetic.

Evangelion wasn't exactly a "happy" anime. Its about the apocalypse getting aborted halfway (so only 60% of humans died), and the post-apocalyptic fight for survival. Its supposed to be incredibly disturbing.

Its one of the most "edgelord" animes that's ever come out. The light-effects here are closer to the aesthetic than I actually expected them to be.

----------

Angel Attack theme is also exceptionally well done. Of the three previewed setups on the website, I think Angel Attack got it closest.

Note that the Anime's emergencies are announced as follows:

-----------

I think what bothers me about the Purple Eva Unit 1 was that its "light up" parts were green, not the purple bits. Purple Armor, but Green-neon lights.

In contrast: the Golden-Orange AT Fields and Red-emergency lights look correct... AND were properly lit up like that in the anime.

I guess some people will really like it, i´d rather go with no bling, get a better cpu, more memory, etc, just simple and efective as possible
