I'd take a proper lavalier mic with proper studio headphones over an unwieldy and crappy gaming headset with boom mic any day.
Or better yet, a proper THX reference level capable surround sound system and tactile transducers over any headphones.
Or even just dt-990s + modmic. Still better than any gaming headset ever built.
But that combination costs around 230 Swiss Franks versus 75 Swiss Franks for a Hyperx Cloud Alpha.
Superlux HD 660 Pro / Samson SR850 / AKG K240 + 15€ Lavalier Mic = Better than HyperX Wolkendingsi.
An omnidirectional mic 20 cm downwards from the persons mouth is supposed to sound better than a little boom mic right in front of them? That's not very convincing.
