Can we get an old gamers thread?

Most videogames that are worth playing are mature only

this 'fit in', groupthink, "what do my peers think of me when I use their language and phrases" alike have destroyed this place beyond repair. Fucking hell.

You dont even have to be old for this, many idiots having children at 20s or earlier

having kids is not so bad

the ideal family for a gamer is a gamer wife and kids that you can teach how to play games so they later come here to talk trash about the new stuff

By having a job I enjoy so much that it doesn't feel like a job. If you dedicate your entire life to blue collar 9-5 office jobs, of course you'll feel drained and angry with life.

the downfall to the shit era is anything that comes around 20 to 30 years after your birth

and it has been like this since mankinds birth

but the only things that give me joy are watching movies, playing games and making models

Man, iCarly didn't age well at all, right now even your grandma can have a streaming show if she feels like it.

I've never had this happen. The closest I've had was an allegedly 20 year old girl saying "Wow, that's oooold!" when I told her I was 28.

The 90s were peak for most forms of art and entertainment.
Technology improved a lot since then but the quality of the things we consume downgraded fast.

I remember in 2007 we all knew videogames were going to shit, today's Yea Forums is witness that we were right.

I like minor RPG elements. Like leveling up your commander unit across missions in RTS games.

It’s ok, bruh. Plenty of tops will take a 26 yo bottom.

I hate this. I though it was cool years ago when it was a new thing, but it just became forced. I like pure RPGs, I like games with RPG elements, but shit, not everything needs RPG elements.

I've always been kinda shit at games so I haven't noticed a drop-off in that respect, but my interest in playing games has really waned to the point where I bought some games brand new, around release, and months later haven't gotten around to even opening them. It isn't even like I have anything better to do.

I guess I worded it badly. I was talking about stuff like guns being censored in the Spyro remakes because kids apparently can't handle them anymore, and certain things not being doable because they might hurt someone's feelings. I don't care for DOAX games, but shit, DOAX 3 didn't even get released outside of Asia because they were afraid of SJWs.

Im not, I just need to wait for what is currently 3 people to die with the youngest already being 60. Then, as the dead end of my family tree, I can blow the inheritance on a few years of neetdom before neatly wrapping up my affairs, selling off all my bullshit and accepting death. Not that I am imagining I will ultimately have it in me to end my life but the fantasy of marching off into the snow keeps me going. Slip in with tourists after that northern lights shit, get drunk enough to make the coroner think it was an accident and blunder off into the ice.

I don't know, ask yourself what do you like to do other than videogames. Even something as mundane as tending a garden can become a flower selling business if you put effort into it.

I watched cartoons later than some, so I watched Chowder and Flapjack
They were actually pretty good, not gonna lie
Chowder's static pattern fills, interstitials, and the cuts to alternative animation or live action were super fresh for that time
Flapjack had a bit of that and also dabbled into the uncomfortable zone
I don't have a megahuge nostalgia boner for it, but many shows didn't really strike me as doing something different like these did

Yeah I hear that. I don't have much of a social life, so I can still play a lot, but I miss being able to play A LOT. I did it even through my 20s since I worked irregularly. I'd work constantly for a month or two and then work would dry up for a few weeks. Now I have a regular job, regular pay, and regular lack of time.

It’s fucking candy, you dolt.

just go and do some friends telling them you are a veteran of their videogames or some shit

What do you do for the government?

Yeah, watching literal zoomers long for "the old days" helps put into context your own longings.

The truth is things go through a bell curve of quality over time. Thing is invented, it sucks at first, its perfected, then its farmed out until the thing sucks. People just look at "TV" "Music" "video games" as a whole as the thing invented instead of genres. Everything naturally declines over time as it gets more and more incestuous with itself and its fans.

I missed out on all the DLC aside from Javik the last time I played back in 2012.

Its my 28th birthday in 2 weeks and I've never had sex or a gf. I have shitty job working in HR/Recruitment. I just go to work and come home. A new girl started a few weeks ago and I like her. I went out drinking with her and her friends for paddys day. When I was drunk I told 2 of her friends that I like her. They said I should tell her. But I don't think she likes me like that. Shes very quiet and introverted and doesnt drink much alcohol. She is also religious and never had sex or bf and doesnt want sex until marriage. Shes too opposite to me. I drank lots when we went out and I can be very loud and outgoing when I want to be. Also I'm not religious at all and would have sex before marriage.

Got to die somehow and if its going to suck no matter what I would at least like it to be on my own terms.

just kill yourself

I've actually been having similar thoughts about how genres of video games just keep getting worse because they find something that works and refuse to innovate. Instead they just steal things from other genres and try to muddy them together and hope it works. See this thread's complaints about RPG elements in fucking everything now.
Sekiro is an interesting look into this, because I genuinely think the game is an experiment with the "souls game" that everyone expected it to be. Its actually trying to innovate and the consumers hate it, because people hate change, perpetuating the degradation of the things they supposedly love.

I can say that the 2010's were surely the "safe decade". There was almost no risk, everything felt too samey and for the sole purpose to sell. You got Disney jumping on the nostalgia train with their constant live action remakes, high school direct to TV movies and 3D movies that reuse assets, the music industry is plaged with artists trying the genre that's popular at the moment instead of trying something new (so much rap shit it's unbelievable) and in videogames people can't stop jerking about hyper realistic graphics and cinematic experiences. That's why there are only a very few memorable things in media during this decade, everything felt too vapid and corporate.

Myself, I really want to enjoy Craig of the Creek, I find it a very charming cartoon, but I just detest the Steven Universe-like artsyle they also used on it, and I fucking HATE the retarded niggerlips they give to every single character of color.

The only thing that wasn't safe that worked, truly, was the MCU. starwars and things like it sucked and failed, about the only things memorable about the 2010s is the mcu , fortnite, and the decline of the world at large.

nah, already have a gamer gf and good life

I actually didn't want to mention the MCU because even nowadays there's already a burnout of the franchise as a whole. I kind of agree with many people that I might stop following it after Endgame, but considering Gunn is returning to direct GotG3 and Spiderman Far From Home looks like a fun movie, I still might give them a view when they're released.

Fuck Disney Star Wars though, fuck it to the ninth circle of hell, you have no idea how much I despise TFA and I'm surprised at how people still gave the eight movie a try.

Not him but this is untrue. If a woman cleans herself and has a healthy lifestyle, she shouldn't smell very much down there.

t. Had my face sat on by multiple women

I stopped buying consoles at the PS2 generation. I never had a PS3/X360 or a PS4/XOne. I only played their games on the PC.

I'm 30 and shaved my beard last week after having it for 2 years. All the women at work said I look 10 years younger now. Is this good or bad?

literally everyone looks ten years younger without a beard.

Well you see, I'm a smell fetishist. I've had some experience knowing that I like these sorts of smells (at least from attractive women). Heck, I'm planning on trying out a service when I'm in Japan later this year where you meet up with women who haven't bathed in a couple days and they sit on your face or shove your nose into their crotch or whatever you want.

>she shouldn't smell very much down there
lmao

>find better ways to kill yourself, also do wild shit
Im open to suggestions on the first one. As for the second, if I thought wild shit was something I would enjoy I would have already done it. Its not as though I will suddenly enjoy cocaine and sex just because some more time has passed.

Beards always make you look older. I'm also closing to 30 and I usually leave my beard for one to two weeks. When I shave it feels like I took 5 years off me. It's a nice feeling.

It helps even more when pretty much every new person I meet thinks I'm actually 24-25, even with beard.

So it was a mistake to shave it? Some of the girls also said I look more "serious" now whatever that means.

I figure setting up a contraption to have two double-barrel shotguns blow your head off from two separate angles would be a foolproof way to do yourself in. Would look pretty cool on a coroner's report too.

Only things that keep me going are the promise of VR waifus and the promise of robot waifus. I need to survive long enough to experience that. I want to be a crazy old guy with lots of robots in his house, the kind you see all the time in sci-fi. Could be real if I live long enough

No one that's still a gamer doesn't know what Fortnite is. (You don't have to like it or play it)

The beard was hiding your doomer face

Yes that's the point of the thread. Congrats on your useless observation.

burnout or no, it is the only real memorable thing of the modern era besides capcom's stellar releases, and a few good games. + fortnite. I'll see gotg3 despite pedoman because he makes good shit, if the leaks about MJ being firestar are true they can eat a dick, sick of blackwashing crap, make her an oc love interest or fuck off.

If they do moon knight I'll watch that maybe, but outside of that, I dunno. I'm more worried there's going to be armageddon in my lifetime as far as civil war goes.

I am disgusted with you both. The MCU is pure trash. It's the fucking Asscreed of cinema. Not one good title.

At least you hate TFA though. That turd is a stain on Star Wars. It's even worse than TLJ, which was doomed from the start because it was meant to follow up the mystery box turd that was TFA.

Either they think you're no fun because you can't loosen up and have fun (and so they will rip on you for being "too serious") or the opposite where you're seen as immature and non-threatening.

A girl can negate the bad pussy smell by eating fruits like watermelons and other sweet natural foods. I've had girls pussy in my face that didn't have any bad smell at all. God I love it when they smell good. Despite the brap meme, it really isn't fun when a girl stinks. A girl that has a good smelling pussy, and a good smelling clean ass is just so much fun to lick. Making her give you a BF in the 69 position while you lick her clean sweat pussy and ass is the best. When a girl smells I don't want to put my face down there, it also means she tastes bad. At that point I just put my dick in her and fuck her normally.

MCU was still something that was bold and I never thought I would've lived to see it work. I'm an old comics fan, and despite my medium dying they did some good things. Fuck them for all the racebaiting and other nonsense, but at least we got ironman 1, raimi spidey, deadpool 1,gotg, Venom, doc strange, and the odd dc title. Fuck them for not doing demon in a bottle, fuck Ryan Reynolds for dp2.

Yeah, I only play big ki- I mean MAN games for men. Fun simply isn't enough. My man games have to make others around me think that I am tough and man big boy.

Shut up with your buzzwords, newfag. Nobody here is pretending the MCU is a new high on cinema, they're all just from great to decent action flicks many can find enjoyment in watching.

But hey, at least I don't like Bayformers, so give me a break.

>wish I could die fighting for what I believed in but those days are gone
Not all politicians are surrounded by bodyguards, just food for thought there

Me either. I've played plenty of classic series, but there are others I've managed to not play. I didn't even play Crash Bandicoot until a few years ago when I was in my late 20s.

welcome to Yea Forums

Dayum, what a chad

nice try israel, I'm on to you

TLJ is bad, but TFA is far worse.

TLJ killed Luke's character, and it killed the rebooted RESISTANCE era setting, which sucked anyways.

TFA killed Han, set up Luke's assassination with having his academy fail and he's gone into exile, it killed Leia's character by making her an unlikable cunt, and her marriage with Han failed. And most of all, it killed the universe, it killed the EU. It killed the ending of ROTJ. Fuck TFA. Worst film I've seen in my life.

TLJ, as bad as it was, will never compare to how bad TFA was. I doubt we will ever see a film as bad as TFA ever again.

bad pussy smell doesn't really correlate with bad taste tho

that just happens if she has a yeast infection or some shit like that but then smell would be lethal

Someone who likes Bayformers crap is more respectable than someone who likes MCU turds and keeps giving Disney money over them. MCU is literally the death of cinema.

I played Skyrim instead and then forgot about it untill recently

lmao reminds me of the time i was about to eat out an Ex and smelt something like fish left in a desert cargo container for weeks and this was after she said she showered
>actually gag
>"are you sure you showered?"
>starts shrieking and throwing things
>FSAFFSD GET OUUT!
>muffle my laughter walking out
>30 minutes later get a text
>"r u still close by?"

im just glad my mind blocked the memory of the smell all i know is it turned me off eating out for a year and half

As an "old person" I hate mobile gaming and mobile phones in general for ruining much of web design for desktop browsing. I hate also hate Twitch and social media.

I don't think I merely hate those because they are new but because they are cancerous and detrimental.

that's your fault for fucking mentioning it, idiot
hope you learned your lesson

>TFA killed Han, set up Luke's assassination with having his academy fail and he's gone into exile, it killed Leia's character by making her an unlikable cunt, and her marriage with Han failed.

The thing about the mystery box is, despite how stupid the intro to the last order or their concept is the idea was solid. Make a wild movie with tons of threads to set up things however you want by the next director. And then Rian cut all those threads like a moron.

Sure a lot of shit in it was bad, but TLJ was downright offensive and doubled down on everything wrong with the first.

Sure, I also enjoy a toy's franchise turned serious and gritty as an excuse to sell american military propaganda.

she probably was on her period

vaginas can smell like death fish on those days even if cleaned up

There is kinda a bad taste when she has a bad smell. It's not horrific. But she's a bit tangy. Whereas when a girl smells good, her taste can be sorta like neutral skin.

And yeah, I think I brought a girl home with a yeast infection once. Nastiest shit I ever smelled. Turned me off immediatly, I wanted her out of there. Washed my sheets afterwards because she sat on them.

>friend cant go so he gives me a free ticket
>see movie
>walk out feeling dirty and somehow robbed despite the free ticket

i enjoyed bad movies but holy shit

>I hate also hate Twitch and social media.

Myself, I don't hate them, but I hate what was brought with them: hundreds of thousands of attentionwhores who are easily willing to provide every single detail of their personal life, while using it as a portal to be absolute douchebags to everyone because they know there are hundreds of hugboxes with the same mentality as theirs.

i've tasted pussies with strong smell but neutral skin taste

could be,she wasn't too bright and kept insisting i go down on her to pay her back for a really awkward teeth filled BJ after claiming she was some sort of pro

I hate how we have threads on here about what X youtuber or e-celeb said about a game. Like their opinions matter because they have viewers on twitch or whatever. It's such faggotry and Yea Forums buys into it. I watch some pro players play games but I don't give a shit about their lives or the drama that goes on behind the scenes.

I don't watch Transformers crap. I am just saying, I respect a transformers fan, more than an MCU or any capeshit fan really.

I played rhythm games for a solid 5 years and now I can't play IIDX for more than about 45 minutes without my wrists screaming in agony

It's weird how time travels linearly, kids are born every day, and that they may too be nostalgic for their childhood, and may even fondly remember the shit parts of it just like 90s kids.

I draw porn for a living.
Im tired of it desu, its so samey.
Im trying to branch out but drawing porn blacklists you from almost all art jobs in the Westerb hemisphere.

One of the reason I hate smartphones is it made internet a part of everyone's everyday life. Having to use PC/laptop was more of a gate than you would think and kept the absolute normalfags out. Or at most they would go online like an hour a day instead of browsing Twitter and Facebook 24/7.

You know what I miss.. the early Fast and Furious movies. Import tuner shit.

>battlefield 2143 never ever
still hurts

>a couple hours a day isn’t enough
How many hours of vidya do you want?1-2 hours a day is more than enough.

But you can branch out. Start making porn games, comic books etc

I've somehow managed to avoid this. I do feel like things have gotten a bit worse but some of my all time favorite games have come out in recent years too.

>unreal tournament thrown into shallow grave
it didnt have to be like this...

>despite how stupid the intro to the last order or their concept is the idea was solid.

If you claim to like them, at least get the name right. It's the First Order. And no, they are shit.

The EU already had the Imperial Remnant, which was present in games like Jedi Outcast/Academy and such. We didn't need them wiped from canon, and some cringey nazy ripoff First Order put in place of what was previously a Remnent with a power vacuum, a struggle for power between tons of Imperial Admirals and politicians in the aftermath of Sheevs death, then lead by Grand Admiral Thrawn. Now we have this literal who, Snoke, and Kylo Ren instead.

>mention I'm 35

thats not old lol 44 here boomer and still love video games, i dont have eye strain, carpal tunnel or anything that chick in the pic has tho

what i do have tho is low interest in most games compared to when i was younger, only play overwatch and wow religously and maybe the occasional battle royale

Still don't have internet on my phone, what the fuck is the point. Read books and listen to music on the phone, you don't need internet on it

the new one that is coming out soon doesnt even relate at all with the franchise except for 2 characters

>friends are glued to screen
>fuckem
>oohh wait
>friends have thotty sisters
>alter ego active

I guess every girls different then. The best is when a girl scents or flavors her genitals beforehand, so that she has a fruit scent and taste. There must be some product they buy and apply to their pussy and asshole to achieve this. But I've had girls that tasted like strawberries and melons and shit.

What were gen 1 and 2 like? Seems like not a lot of people out there who can talk about those times.

There's nothing wrong with being old and enjoying video games.

Attached: 1553457748467.jpg (4032x2268, 2.68M)

depends on the game, if you like RPGs you need a minimum of 5 to 6 hours to enjoy it

the fuck is the hair dryer for?

>no movie/vidya about the unified imperial remnants and the republic forming a cautious truce to fight off the threat of the Yuuzhan_Vong

That sucks. Why the fuck do they blacklist people? God the west is so fucking shit. What's wrong with a good artists drawing porn in between other jobs? Why do employers care so much?

Also what type of porn do you draw? Do you have to do shit like furfag requests? Or just you own stuff?

Same thing with social media, I don't hate smartphones, they were pretty much the logical evolution to mobile devices. I mean, to the day I'm still amazed at how fast we came from having PCs at home to pretty much carry the whole knowledge of the world and the ability to communicate with anyone around the globe in the palm of our hands. In my opinion, not having a smartphone nowadays is pretty much crippling yourself.

There's something I can agree: People stopped being social for a long time, but at least everyone is finally learning to not let their phone dominate their lives.

spelling yuuzhan vong is hard

wtf is fortnite

hmm i assume your talking about the atari 2600-nes-genesis days

well to be honest i'd say that was the best time but of course im looking through rose colored glasses, no way can i play those games now

i wouldnt mind walking into an old style arcade again, i do miss those days. i live in a small town so no arcades here but i bet they have retro arcades in bigger cities dont have a clue

fuck off you old fart, no one likes boomers

>tfw had a bootleg copy of this shit that fit on 1 CD
Remember watching Evangelion that had 16 episodes on a single CD, now those were the times *sips*

but some games become kinda boring or plain shit when played on easy

Clearly can't be that old if you spend your time watching MOBA (1) streams (2) on a setup with a RGB keyboard (3).

enjoy nobody remembering you after you die :)

Do you guys think being an older gamer is going to be more normal as time goes by? Or will dropping games as a hobby at around 30-40 years old keep happening despite what people grew up with?

>Keep studying after getting a job

Do you have hopes for a better life or anything? If not, just keep your 9-5 job

I want to suck on her titties.

I think the majority of movie rips on my computer are still 700 MB because I used to download much more movies than I do nowadays.

>pretends
I'm 25 and I feel completely disconnected from everything new ever since a few years ago. Once you leave college you just don't keep up with shit anymore. If you were a neet at any time it's even worse.

Work can have perks, I went on a two day trip last week and got bank rolled about £300 of meals and shit

Will you remember your dad fondly after he dies? Will he somehow give a shit, considering that he would be dead? After you die, will anyone care about him? What was the point of all this again?

36 year old boomer here, missus went away for the weekend with the mother in law to a fucking yarn festival. Started up a FFXIV account, ordered a pizza and played until 3am with a dog on my lap.

Fucking maximum comfy weekend. Shame it ends in about an hour

hobbies are just that hobbies, im pretty sure there are poeple who love fishing and hunting their entire life

You think anyone is going to remeber your dumbass after you die just because you're a breeder?

You dont even remeber your great grandparents or your forefathers and after you get old and useless your kids will dump you in an old folks home and forget about you.

lol i was a toddler babby shitting his pants in 1999

>yarn festival
Oh god

Well I'm always joking and messing at work.

triggered retards who are fading into obscurity :)

I think a lot of gamers will keep gaming actually, especially those that have always played on PC. Even guys that have children find time for it, and if you're going to drop gaming what other thing are you even gonna take up? No one who's been a gamer their entire life is gonna get into cars or handiwork all of the sudden, TV is far too non-interactive and mindnumbing, and reading just can't hold your attention. Plus when you're an adult is actually the time you can finally afford the top notch hardware you've always wanted as a teen (unless you're one of those spoiled zoomers where apparently it's normal to get gaming rigs costing several thousand bucks for your 15th birthday).

Its original version was gonna be a survival thing where you build forts and get attacked at night. It was supposed to be a pun. But then the BR mode became the thing to do.

Nice reading comprehension retard. I said TFA was worse than TLJ.

And you are a mega pleb for liking MCU trash.

It's also not immediately available to anyone inb4 hurr durr serf europoors rant.

Not even joking. It was apparently at capacity as well. I don't get it, but yeah.

It already is normal. Lots of old folks played that farmville shit and candy crush. It was solitaire. online checkers, and pinball before that.

alright anons, who 30+ here? be honest

will turn 34 this week, forever alone, pray for me

discs of tron, kung fu, karate champ, elevator action, double dragon, dungeons and dragons shadows over mystara, golden axe were some of my favorite arcade games

It already is normal. In the 30-40 range almost everyone plays games with their spouse or kids. 40+ play them as well but they usually only play
Dad Games you've never heard of like simulators. It's at the point I pretend I don't play games at all just so I don't have to hear Jimmy
Fucko bragging about how good his troll death knight is or have Jermaine Biggums trying to get me to smoke a blunt and play call of duty with him.

>35

>forever alone

Gonna be real, the dating game is too exhausting and leads to disappointment. I ended up getting lucky and hooking up with a girl that was just a great friend. Together for 13 years now, and she's still a bro.

heh im the exception i guess since i like to keep up to date on what i play, even have like 100 hours on fortinte

Games are all bad.
Gaming communities are all cancer.
Everyone is a griefing faggot.
Everyone is an autistic unfun homo that refuses to even say hi.
Everyone refuses help and loses their fucking minds when you try and help them.
I miss mplayer and playing with Vietnam vets.

What do older people do for music? I just keep listening to shit I liked in my 20s. Is this normal? Is fancy shit like classical music and jazz the only way out of this cycle?

Play better games then. The games I play ussualy have guys on mic helping newfags, and people coordinating tactics and shit to take the enemies territory.

Man, fuck clouds
I moved to Phoenix to get away from them

I'd still argue that there are still the same- if not more- number of quality games per year. The ratio of good:bad is worse, but we still get gems here and there.

I dropped music completely as a hobby. If I find something I like, I will listen to it casually. But only once in a while listening to shit here and there.

hell yea its normal, i still listen to ozzy stuff, soundgarden, foo fighters

i actually hated hip hop when i was younger but man i love the shit now lol, hip hop gets better every in my opinion

I miss mplayer too. Was like an LAN party the whole world was invited to.

I keep up with the times. Moved on from dubstep to retrowave, but I still listen to Dimmu Borgir or Immortal Technique for nostalgia's
sake sometimes. I live in a weird place where underground rap and death metal were the two most popular genres.

I went on spotify initially for a spree of listening to albums that had singles I enjoyed and got curious about the similar artists button. Does well for hitting that "same as the stuff I already like from my youth but still new to me" itch.

I have larger than average wrists for my hand size and it's absolutely fucked the nerves in my right hand. I unironically use an Xbone controller on PC way more than my mouse just because it doesn't flare up the pain in my hand and wrist.

Mplayer people worked together and clans were like families and you learned secrets and tactics and kept them closely guarded like some naruto ninja jutso shit.
Now I make a statement and it gets downvoted by a legion of silvers arguing points that aren't valid or just plainly wrong. It's all casualized egotistical garbage.

>Is fancy shit like classical music and jazz the only way out of this cycle?
Apparently. Source: I'm 30 and I'm currently trying to expand my experience with jazz and classical. It seems like you've simply listened to everything else before, and either you already like it and know it, or you already dislike it and don't wanna know it.

How?

27 yo reporting. The older I get the more I play in cycles. It's the same games with something new from time to time. Factorio, underrail, dying light, elex were the new games of this cycle. AAA titles/endless sequels and remakes are not interesting at all. In just glad there are still a lot of people doing good games and not political bullshit.

Core millennial because I am one and we all well know that everything that comes after your own age is shit.

9/11 is the cutoff. Every era before 9/11 was golden, every era after was spotty at best.

that's probably more from lack of practice, if it's 'going back' to it

Don't worry boomer bros, there's more and more manchilds every time so we will never be alone no matter how many new kids start playing vidya.

I'm 27 and I haven't noticed any physical drop off, I can still sit and play something for 12+ hours. The thing's that changed is that my work drains me mentally so much that I have no will to do anything. So I generally space out and watch Twitch or something on Youtube and pass out shortly after 10pm.
I honestly have no idea how people have the energy for a wife and kids. Also, I have no intentions of getting married because at least on weekends I want to play games all day every day.

dam that core gen x culture pic brings back so many memories for me

yep i was a hulkamania kid and the old star trek movies were the shit

They are, there are documenaties on it. Modern westerns have been raised and indoctrinated to be good little paypigs for decades now. See docuementaries on Edward Bernays and others for the beginnings of this.

You could also visit a third world country/poor non western country and hang out with the locals for a week or so and you will be amazed at how these people act when not indoctrinated by the modern world.

>makeshift lumbar support

AH SHIT

Isn't that epic exclusive satisfactory pretty much aaa factorio? For me it's not enough to download the epic launcher but I might just pirate it eventually.

I'm only 19 but I just find myself enjoying the older stuff a lot more. I'll still pick up a new release every once in a while but most of my time is spent either a) browsing the Chon or playing some classic. I'm starting to see more of a resurgence in the mainstream for these old-style games, stuff like Odyssey and crash bandicoot, so I feel like something's gonna show up sooner or later.

You're just a normalfag looking at all the mainstream stuff. Hip hop want underground before it became popular and most musicians in that genre resented the mainstream.

Most of the underground stuff emulates the mainstream stuff.

I turn 27 in a few months and I am the same way. No idea how people fucking survive working 9-5 only to go home to a wife and kids. There would literally be no time to yourself. I think anyone creative or intelligent would go insane living a life like that. It's for the plebs only.

I used to work full time while having a gf, I had to break up with her eventually, because she'd take up all the time I wasn't working. Then even just full time, I was so tired when I got home, I was too tired to have fun. Everything would be rushed. I hated it. Weekends were the only time I lived. So then I had to quit my job and go part time instead. I fucking need my free time.

This is the hell you chose, perv. The path to repentance is long, but still accessible : forget your wrong deeds, go back To the SFW path & you will be forgiven!

>tfw weekend is almost over
NO SAVE ME MUMMY NOT THE WAGE CAGE AGAIN NOOOO

Honestly right now I feel the urge to create more than consume. Working shit jobs crushed that flame but now that I'm jobless and have time suddenly I feel free like a creative kid again. Been writing down ideas and sketching a lot the past couple months. Playing vidya is fun, there are some good recent titles, but it feels like I'm wasting time if I haven't made or worked on anything that day.

same here i also started listening to big band music as well except now i got an urge to move to the american south

What should I say when the girls at work ask me what I did at the weekend? I always have to lie.

A couple years back I got a rekindled interest in vocaloid for some reason and ended up youtube-rabbithole into a bunch of weeb anime epic battle music songs that make me feel all tingly inside

not stuff you can show people irl though

>tfw most of my friends are either incels or don't want to have kids
this will probably bite me in the ass later, but rn it's working for me

Keep lying like I do.

The thing is, I'm a teacher and I thank God every day that the absolute longest I spend at work a day is 6 hours (tomorrow for example I work from 8am to 11am). I have no fucking idea how can people spend 8 hours at work. And when I get home, I want absolute peace, no drama, because even though I don't work long hours my work causes me almost constant restlessness and anxiety, I simply couldn't handle any additional problems. And women and families tend to cause a loooot of problems.
Been enjoying watching GTA5 RP streams lately.

I feel exactly the same way. I want to make some shirt films and fuck around with mods and maybe try to make some vidya. I am balls deep in crypto and can't wait for it take off again so I have the funds do bigger stuff. I am writing down all my ideas, and also writing short erotica stories and getting hyped to make something with a budget. Honestly being creative gets me in a kind of a high. You are also right that having a job can kill this, and turn you into a consumer drone again. But if you don't have a career type job, and just have some piss easy brainless part time job, you can instead daydream about all your ideas at work, then write them down when you get home and go through them all, and you don't feel as drained doing shorter shifts, or only working 3 days a week instead of 5.

Do you seriously work 13 hour days? Fucking hell. What industry?

>The thing's that changed is that my work drains me
This is what baffles me about modern life. I thought the whole point of using robots along with more and more tech was supposed to result in people needing to work fewer hours for the same results, meaning for personal free time for everyone. Where is my standard 3 day week world?

Common sense : do you really want to be associated to someone who draws lewd fetishes all day for money? (Aka the hookers of the art world)

Has nothing to do with my genes and everything to do with still working out despite my fucked up knees.

No lower back problems, though. Dodged that fucking life ruining bullet.

its something that happens to people as their neuroplasticity begins to decline (starting around 22, becoming significant at 25.) i'm not sure if its just the reduction in being able to pick up new habits, or if there's another neurological mechanism at work to spare you discomfort by reinforcing existing pathways, but people start re-watching old television shows they used to love, replaying old games, and creating excuses or criticisms for anything new and not of the type they're used to.

i have a roommate, for example, dude is 40ish, and downloaded Heroes of Might and Magic III and played through that, despite the fact that i offered every 4X game and Might and Magic sequel to him via family sharing. After that he decided that rather than try Path of Exile or Grim Dawn or Torchlight, he'd rather just re-download Diablo 2 and do Uber Tristram runs. Before this he was playing Zelda I & II, and frequently complains about how games have "become boring" or "too short."

he also plays mobile games on his phone so there's no logical consistency to it, its just pure cognitive reinforcement built up over decades of insular behavior. it'll happen to you too if you don't constantly, and actively, pursue new interests.

I feel you. Sometimes I go on a mad touhou sperg-out like it's 2011 again.
Surprisingly easy to get back into that old weeb mindset.

This guy actually makes a good point. Most of these people obsessed with passing on their genes are objectively ugly.

Not that guy. I used to work around 12 daily as NPI for automotive industry (Tier 1 company).

Can't you do your porn under another name? So they don't know who it is?

>some piss easy brainless part time job
Definitely what I've been thinking about. It'll be feasible for now and give me time to work on my shit.

Im 19 and my very first own game that I played all by myself and managed to figure out on my own volition was bethesdas Oblivion. I had played games before that such as mario world, donkey kong country, halo and a few other retro games but Oblivion was my first true game. oblivion is turning 13 years old now. thats crazy.

Vidya, it's crunch time. I'm not forced to work that much but if I don't they'll replace me. They already tried to, pushed my down the hierarchy and put a new guy in my place, but he was a total fuck up so they put me back. Now I'm realizing that if don't do 9-10 I'll be replaced again. At least I'm paid for overtime, so it's not that bad. Like I said, when you accept that you're a slave and that there is no hope for you, it's not that bad. Just give up and it'll be easier, don't struggle

You only have problems like that because you practice poor posture, diet, and never exercise.

Man, screw the money, your overall health is more important. Tone it the fuck down or you'll crack real soon

If you don't have money, pretty much the only thing to do is go for walks and try cold approaching interesting people. It takes like 6 months to a year to get decent enough at it that it won't just be 30 minutes of awkward pseudo-conversation, though, so most people never try.

If you have money, club sports, sport arenas (with tennis walls and shit,) bars, sailing, fishing, casual biking, festivals, picnics, stuff you see people doing outside in movies, man. Issue is there's usually dedicated space for this stuff and you're not just gonna see it from the highway or your basement.

Also if you live in some backwater flyover state you're probably just fucked, go to a bar.

Just a reminder than there's no such thing as an "old gamer". We're all young at heart and we all enjoy video games regardless of age.

fuck off zoomer

I rarely go outside, but there are days where I do. I don't know if you just like videogames or if you're a weeb; but there are times where I can go outside and sit in a lawn chair and while I lay and stare at the clouds I can feel a sense of immense relaxation and comfort similar to what I feel in the moments I'm truly happy talking about anime and videogames that I know very deeply. I don't get this kind of outside zen very often but it's really really nice when I get it. lots of people here really aren't the type of people to go out and do 'activities' but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy something alone. Maybe even take a nap. It's healthy and healing, just like the cute slice of life anime or the comfy harvest moon game.

I recommend very early summer or late summer when it's not too cold or hot and the clouds are moving in the blue sky at a nice pace.

Shit that sucks man. I've always been interested in making vidya, but crunch time always worried me. Why do devs do it. Is there a reason that some part of development has this long hours crunch time aspect? Why is the whole dev cycle not like this? How long does it usually last for?

Also why are you on Yea Forums if it's crunch time?

No she doesnt drink. She likes board games and music and dancing and musicals. She tried to get me to dance with her when I went out one night with her and her friends but I can't dance.

I had to switch to splatoon. Precise aiming has it's place but it's far more positional gameplay. I can position myself right and the ink hitboxes are forgiving enough that you win the engagement with correct decision making rather than 'twitchy' ability.

You can still USE that if you have it on certain weapons but it's not the be all end all like with tacticool games

Getting away from people. There's a nearby park that's a few thousand acres large. Has paths in areas, large bodies of water but most of the area is varied wilderness with animals and cool plants. Going there on nice days, wandering far out and not being around a single fucking person is great. Sometimes I'll go with a buddy that knows plants and we'll pick things and he teaches me how to identify stuff. I recently sat under a tree for an hour alone just relaxing, eating grapes I brought and watched a group of deer frolic nearby.

>Sour grapes

An artist can change his pseudo / nickname but it's harder to change his style, his lewd habits. Tons of people care, and if they dig in your past & see that you did a furry scat commission for a rich weirdo, they will lose respect for you & are way less likely to recommend you in a positive light to their normal friends & families.
The most popular franchises like Mario, Mickey, Batman,etc... Don't contain much nsfw and that is part of their success!
You won't make kids dream with stories about blackmail,cuckold,prostitution,etc... Not sane for their minds. (And it shouldnt be)

>tfw just turned 24 and feel like my life is over already because I'm too "far behind"

But this is the best time to get kids because there's no fucking game at all to play.
Friend of mine just had 2 kids and he even have a "man cave" in his house with a lot of shit in it but there's NOTHING to play. You always go back to older games but youve already played them like crazy.

So if you want kids, get them now. It will probably take 10 years for them to get a new genre going.

>Time to gamedev them yourself!
Doing it right now fren. Current project is on mobile, but my next big project for Steam is either a 2d ActionAdventure game (Zelda game) or a 2D horror game. Not sure yet, but I have the necessary resource to make either one next. They maybe wont even be shitty.

I love CotC. I agree though that the artstyle isn't too great. But isn't the lip thing just there to correctly show that black people have bigger lips?

It started out as first-person tower defense, not "survival". I remember because one of my friends was hype for it and told me about it, and I instantly stopped caring after he told me it was tower defense. When PUBG was still big, everyone was waiting for a AAA to step in and make a version of the game that's not stupid, but very few people thought that the developer would be Epic, at the time known for being big like ten years ago, let alone that the AAA version would be a free mode for an existing tower defense game

Art styles are very easy to recognize. I'd regale you with the tragic tale of Dobson but its easier to just wait for a Dobson thread to pop up.

>Deal with the woulda, coulda, shouldas of life that is.
Man, I have no energy to think about that, people take life waaaay to seriously. On a couple of ocassions when I was sure I was gonna die, it didn't matter to me if I had a gf or kids or money, I was busy thinking 'oh shit oh shit oh shit'.
I also have no regrets because I've always listened to myself. In high school I preferred to stay at home playing Morrowind instead of going after thots in a nightclub. College was pretty much the same deal and now that I'm working it's still the same. Listen to yourself and what feels good for you, fuck what other people say and do.

Those things called "credits" at the end of movies and things? Apparently people pay attention to those.
Anybody who watches something you did work on has a chance to do a quick google search because "oh that's nice art, I wonder if they have done anything else?" and then they end up getting a google-search full of deviant-art porn. It's a "risk" for any corporation you work under to be associated with [specific fetish] that might damage their reputation, so they refuse to take it.
>Can't you do your porn under another name? So they don't know who it is?
To my knowledge, this is basically the only option, but that risks adding more problems because you can't give yourself publicity.

Get better at timekeeping

most of your "styles" of games happened because of hardware restrictions. Nowadays developers (even old veteran developers) embrace new technologies and styles because they are not restricted anymore by hard.

We couldn't get a Dark Souls game before with hardware from the 90s.

I hate the kids on here and I hate their attitude. I'm 32 and I already feel like an old guy who is out of touch who is in his 70s hating on the younger generations.
I never knew this would happen.

I dont get Streamers like fucking play games yourself. Why do you watch people play? Are you too lazy? What's sad: I've used to comment I was playing and I would always do stupid and funny stuff when playing. I would have probably been a great Streamer but as I grew older I've learned to shut the fuck up. I lurk on an anonymous image board because I don't want to boost my own ego and be like
>everyone look at me

When I was younger I was extroverted and loud like all Streamers. I don't roll like that anymore and I'm glad I've managed to mature. I also hate social media and I dont understand Fortnite or that Blizzard game with the cartoon ass.

I like spaces and I've never used reddit before. Kill yourself cuck.

Will they really be able to pick you out from your artstyle? Wouldn't that mean they had to go looking through booru's for anything similar to how you draw? Can't you get work for companies who are doing adults or teenager rated products anyways. I doubt they would care.

Fuck off gunny

32 year old guy here, the thing that got me out of my funk was realizing that in five years, I'd look back and regret I wasted the time I'm living now, just like how I look back at myself five years from now and wish I would have been doing something with all of that time besides playing video games and masturbating.

Just think about who you want to be, and start working to be that person so that this part of your life is something you can look back on with pride. You're only twenty-four. I would kill to go back in time and take control of my life, but all you can do is do the best with what you have.

Don't ever feel like you're a waste, user. You're capable, you're just letting the past paralyze you. Just work towards being the person you want to be.

Even as a mediocre artfag, I've traced some stuff back to artists simply by recognizing techniques, habits or style. You'd have to really mask or adopt something different while working on your nsfw stuff to remain really anonymous.

I'm mainly interested in established franchises like FF, DQ, Fallout, Elder scrolls (even though they've ruined it), GTA, etc.
>wish I would have been doing something with all of that time besides playing video games and masturbating

You got me wrong. It's not my past thats holding me back.

It's the fact that no matter what I do I get stuck in ruts. I can never find a job that isn't backbreaking, I can never save enough money for anything worthwhile, I can barely afford rent with how low wages are in America. I have no college, can't afford any school, parents never could afford for me to go school and they don't give a shit anyways. I got nothing to fall back on if I fuck up financially, I will basically be homeless and probably just kill myself by giving up and not eating. I always have shit to worry about, there never is any peace in my life.

The grind has broken me, changed me into a worse person. A less passionate, less fun, less optimistic person. I really don't see the point in life anymore or living at all.

It depends on what you like, or what your dreams are (or were).

For me, I gave up on writing music and coding in high school, so I've been practicing in my spare time to get it back. Even if it's not something that's going to result in a career change or anything, it feels good to not just be stuck in a rut every day. I've also been reading more, which has made my mind feel less foggy and slow than it has been for the past ten years.

Beyond that, I've also come to appreciate not doing things, in the sense of just taking pleasure in the small things, like sitting on a park bench feeling gentle breezes and seeing kids playing with their pets. Time goes on no matter what, and sometimes it feels better to just go with it rather than spend so much energy trying to mentally beat it back.

its almost time for us to collect free neetbux

Tbh I've never wanted anything other than being able to play games all day every day. Used to read a lot, but then I realized I'm just unnecessarily burdening my brain with political topics and reading fantasy is no different than playing vidya. I have all this knowledge about a lot of shit and I have nothing to show for it since all that matters in the world is being a loudmouth with a God complex.

i dont know anymore.

Just a reminder:
The world belongs to the 16-24 year olds.

You might as well be dead already.

>32
>moved out of apartment i rented during grad school to live with wife on her campus grad apartment
>no more desktop
>only shitty laptopt
>can only play shadowrun and puzzle quest
>cant find job just watch twitch all day
>would kill to have my old desktop again

life keeps getting worse

I know I know,but mobile is perfect for turning little demos and side projects into a bit of money. I do not make shitty pay2win stuff or anything. Just arcade stuff or puzzle games.
The good stuff is on Steam or (was) on browser game sites.

>turned 31 last month
>still look younger than most my coworkers, friends
>have thick, nice looking hair people compliment
I'm just waiting for something really bad to happen to my health to offset these things.

>Meeting up with a girl from /r9k/ and fucking her in 09

Can relate to this. I'm 33, I've been on here since 2006 and most of the girls I've fucked have been from Yea Forums in some round or about way (Skype groups, Steam chat groups years ago etc). The thing is, those were all when I was 23-29. One of the biggest memes about getting older is that you get more appealing to (younger) women. It's true if the age gap is like 6-7 years and you're still in your 20s, but 30 is a big watershed. It's much harder to find e-thots to fuck after you hit 30, and I suspect it's partly because you stop being a "cool older guy" and wander into "creepy older guy" territory instead. I also suspect the other side of it is that back in the 2006-2012 era, the market wasn't as saturated with thirsty guys chasing e-girls as it is today, so it wasn't as hard to exchange contact details and meet up and fuck.

the radio sucks nowadays, the best new thing I heard recently is vapor wave and the retro 80s wave stuff from pertubator and the like.

because cant fit it into airplane and i moved from a 1br to a shared apartment with a tiny ass bedroom

It bothers me that all the protagonists are slowly becoming younger than me. It's so weird playing the newest pokemon and having to be a 12-year old again.

>Used to read a lot, but then I realized I'm just unnecessarily burdening my brain with political topics

Damn. Same here. I am 26 now. I wasted so much time from 18-24 reading political bullshit, browsing /pol/, reading lots of books and essays. It's all interesting, but a complete waste of time, and it absolutely is a burdon of knowledge that does not help you, but hinders you. It just makes you sad, angry and depressed most of the time. And I am just a poorfag nobody, I can't change anything, so what does it benefit me to know all this crap.

So I stopped. Though I still read fiction books and sci fi/fantasy and genre stuff every now and then. I feel much better and happier. Maybe if I as an actual politician, or born to a high class family who has power, those books would be useful, but they aren't.

Yeah, okay kid.

>tfw 26 y/o doomer

This is why the white race deserves to die.

I didn't actually fuck that one, she wanted to meet up and fuck but she was too crazy even for a loser like me who loves BPD changirls.

If I could give any advice to the young ones on here, it's not to chase after girls who play video games, watch anime and that kind of thing. They are far, far crazier, sluttier and so on than your average chick is. Even your average club-going girl is less promiscuous. That said the sex is worse.

everything up until early gen z was great, but gen z was when the quality halved.

Jokes on you I'm gonna masturbate to that.

I too am looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077.
Hope it doesn't suck.
I want to be able to make a model similiar to my waif Motoko in the game.

i dont even play games anymore, i just watch speed runs of diablo2, baldurs gate and other boomer games

Pathetic. I take my desktop with me when I go on holidays. Just get 2 big suitcases, one for the tower, one for your screen. Put tons of padding in there, pillows, sheets, bubble wrap etc, then tell them to put it in fragile when you go to the airport.

I don't bother going overseas on a holiday for any less than 1 month. So yeah, I set my desktop up in my hotel room. Holidays are for fun, and if I feel like playing vidya at night after a long day out exploring a new locale, I fucking will.

>When this board unironically used to have Phoenix Wright roleplay threads
>That girl who fucked a dog on Deviant Art and got doxed by Yea Forums in 2007

I legitimately miss tripfags like Quentin. It seems like tripfags in general have just disappeared.

I just watch ZFG nowadays, no more playing games.

Same, except I'd like to model something after Leeloo.

You lost your muscle memory, but you still have know how. Its frustrating but if you keep playing for a few weeks you'll be back on top.

I can relate fren. I turned 30 recently.
The Longest Journey helped me cure my depression a while ago. Played Dreamfall first when it came out. Bought Chapters but too scared to even play it.
FF7 blew my mind as a kid. Bought 8 and 9 on release day. Was pretty hard to play as a kid but I bought the strategy guides too. Was relatively disappointed with FF10, because it felt like a beta version of a game. Way to slow and confined.

Confirming all of this. Even a decent job and being in shape doesn't really change it. The sort of girls who are into 30-something guys are all either women your own age or late 20s neurotics looking to settle down.

Shit fucking sucks. I should have married that Estonian girl years ago.

Nah, When i was a younger i enjoyed playing with older people they weren't as fucking annoying as other kids. Just don't be retarded and it doesn't matter how fucking old you are. Assuming you can still actually play.

>It seems like tripfags in general have just disappeared.

That's a good thing. People are finally realizing the benefits of this place is being anonymous. You can go be a namefag on literally any other website.
