My Portable Gaming EDC in 2024

[@M4ttypants]

Just leaving the caravan from a week on holiday with my wife and kids. And my GR1 26L is loaded up with My Switch Oled My Steamdeck LCD Wife’s Switch Oled Oldest Switch Oled Youngests Switch Lite Tech pouch My MacBook Pro Wife’s iPad Air 11 with Keyboard case. Couple of flash lights, head lamps, tissues, allergy tablets, asthma inhaler. The Goruck bags are phenomenal. The GR2 video you did was actually how I found your channel!

[@Oscarito_us]

Super cool set up. It's crazy how much overlap we have in our EDC's. I actually ended up selling my GR2 because I didn't like the extra compartments and couldn't make it fit into my setup but I like how you set yours up. I'm so use to my GR1 26L as having a big hole and filling it with what I need. I actually was lucky and won another GR1 21L that I have setup exclusively for rucking. So far i'm happy with having the two bags set up that way. I use my 26L for everyday, going to work, etc. I'm glad I found your channel new subscriber for sure.

[@No_Sabo_Manga]

Todays cup was amazing. I love edc and gaming. It’s so funny to me that apart from fitness our interests are so similar. You actually inspired me to pull out my DDT urban carry sling again and take a break from my alpaka bags. I love stuff like that where tech guys show their edc and edc guys show their tech.

[@The_Angry_Angiographer]

The more I watch you, the more I like you. Sweet setup! I'm currently using a OGIO bag my work gave me but secretly can't wait to replace it.

[@getitgaryy9847]

This is an awesome setup

[@AlanTwigg]

Hell yeah! Carrying my GR0 on my back full of all my tools for work now right now, just like every day.

[@julienmelnick]

GORUCK is the play.

[@WhoIsKirk]

+1 for Goruck. Big fan of the bullet and GR1

[@pineapple2814]

Absolutely! Just got my Gr1 26L a couple of weeks ago and I love it. Don’t think I’ll ever be able to use anything else, nor be able to kill that thing.

[@catpurran3367]

I like the philosophy of using a tactical bag, audio-focused headphones, etc for daily carry stuff. This is the way.

[@drbeaverhausen]

WE EVEN HAVE THE SAME PEN!?!? We're like grear soul brothers!

[@julienmelnick]

its the coolest!!

[@EmbracedDestiny]

Thanks for this video, I have a tech bag (pretty small) it was my bag I’d put all my stuff in, like surface pro laptop, switch (and now steam deck), vita, 3ds,and my cable bag that has all charging cables for each device (most being usb-c and) and headphones also in there. Now as a dad and being home with my son for the next 6 months I need to have more things focused on him rather than just tech. Meaning I’m needing a larger bag. This is something to consider. Currently my wife has an over the sholder bag with all of his things which I’ll use but now that I’m the one off I think it makes sense to have my own setup

[@danemcdonaldsouth7593]

Damn bro haven't watched you in years i remember how chill the discord server was when i was in it so its great watching you again

[@rstarrkk]

Wild. My bag consists of: work laptop, gym clothes and protein shake, whatever book im currently reading, headphones, an MTG deck or three, and a modded GBA with a flash cart. I have a steam deck but I never see a use case for it outside of my home so i never take it with me.

[@ryanmfrancis]

Awesome choice, no flappy straps for the win.

[@zayro1393]

Love the bag. For EDC I use the Nomatic Everday bag. Best edc tech bag imo.

[@nostradukemas]

Don’t necessarily have a DEDC because my days end up being so different, but pretty much every Father’s Day gift I’ve ever asked for has been something that doubles as a backpack because I’m always carrying everyone else’s stuff

[@Dj18Xero316]

Evergood’s pack and pouches. I do have that Side by Side Power Packer as well. Genki force field for my OLED, and JSAUX mod case for steam deck. Loving my loadout.

[@SuileDearg]

I currently carry a 5.11 Moab8, decent pack for the sub $100 category, but I view it as a disposable pack. The Moab8 is really small, the main compartment is easily filled by a full size CCW and spare mag. You can fit a Steam Deck in the admin pouch at the same time but it's not ideal when keys and other quick access items are sharing that pouch. I wish Maxpedition still made the Pecos, it's the best bag I own but I only carry it now while vacationing or visiting friends. If I can get a second one I'd be so happy. I thought my taste in packs was costly, those GR2s are pretty expensive. Too bad they don't have sling bag options.

[@capcityff3531]

Check out the Heroclip as an alternative to the carabiner. I thought it was gimmicky but people kept recommending them. Gave in and I love it. Super easy to hang on to stuff when traveling.

[@julienmelnick]

checking

[@djquibblez12]

I’ve been watching a lot of EDC videos lately, so this was perfect timing for me. Loved it. Do you have a link for the bolt action pen? Or the manga sets?

[@solomonkane408]

Klean kanteen for the win . Nice gear tho .

[@julienmelnick]

thanks man

[@digital11337]

Haha 😂 that was a good one !!

[@EisOfSpades7]

Gotta love some flappy strappys.

[@julienmelnick]

You dirty dog

[@NoRestEffect]

Bro got them chocolate bag carrying bag carrying bags

[@RickyPoopz]

👋 new to the channel, really liked your video and shirt. What does it say in english and what is the meaning behind the back design?

[@hutchings2023]

Hey Julian, live the channel, just joined the dad group :). Can you recommend a great coffee travel mug for my own DEDC load out? Andy

[@julienmelnick]

Let me figure it out!!

[@TheGoodTheBadTheRowdy]

What books are in the background? I am always interested in what people read!

[@danthaman8216]

literally subscribing because you have a dbz read a long group! love god of highschool (it needs a better name)

[@JM-pm1yb]

Hey, my dude! I’m really looking at the tomtoc slim hard shell case, but I already have the 1TB OLED case with the ability to carry as a slim case option. Is the tomtoc case a much better option, or is it pretty comparable?

[@julienmelnick]

Not if you run naked switch. its too loose. if you have a grip case like me then it is the BEST

[@JM-pm1yb]

@@julienmelnick I do have the skull and co grip case. Thanks

[@paolobrossi78]

Open the damn bag man .. I’m 5 minutes in to the vid ..

[@digital11337]

J, I MUST ask this - no Leatherman in it?

[@julienmelnick]

Not in my EDC no. In my bugout for sure

lovely bag for ur 10 ten days in Palestine

[@julienmelnick]

That’s all you got out of this. Bummer

[@cureforboredom9719]

@@michellecarlson7322 It's not important. He didn't ask you to give him money or support him. The video is entertainment. There is ZERO reason you or any other viewer of this video needs to know anything about his "affiliations and beliefs". He could be a bigoted jerk irl, and it wouldn't affect anything about your experience viewing this video, and you watching this video wouldn't mean you support bigotry.

[@JohnSmithM2C]

@@julienmelnick bro this is exactly why most youtubers dont mention the names of israel or palestine anymore. im a gamer, and im a muslim. i hate when people just talk about 5 seconds of a video when it's not even the point of the video. that said, for everyone who is uneducated: Palestine was its own country long ago. Israel came, took over, now its israel. there is nothing called palestine. especially if youre in a country which does not recognize palestine as a country. i feel like i shouldnt have to explain this. when you take over land, you can do whatever u want with it. so when israel defeated palestine, it became israel. the parts which some people adress as "palestine" is also israel. hamas is not the "government" because the people havent selected hamas as their government. so no palestine is not hamas. and yes hamas and palestinians are terrorists, google what terrorist means dumbass. just because it was palestine in the past dosent mean its palestine anymore. they can call the food israeli, they can call the land israeli and everything in between.
