I think I don't like video games anymore

Yume Nikki

His grammar was fine, you're just assuming that he meant to write a much more common turn of phrase. You might be right but the post is still grammatically and semantically valid

Is it just me or is /pol/ dying? Seems like everyone has turned against them.

What the fuck man I was just thinking about making the same thread.
29 and I just can't be bothered anymore. Ever since I entered my twenties I've been gaming less and less and the gaming world has gotten worse and worse.
I keep buying new games but I don't even touch them.
Haven't even finished BOTW yet although I've had it for a year and a half.

You, I like you

This is already posted in another thread. Stop farming (You)s faggot.

No one EVER liked /pol/ except other /pol/tards.. the same as Yea Forums

>Microsoft's presentation was incredibly mediocre and was only saved by an actor
>Bethesda's presentation was an absolute fucking joke aside from Doom Eternal
>EA, PC, and Ubisoft all had fucking embarrassing showings
>Sony didn't even bother to show up
>Square and Nintendo likely aren't going to be great either
Why did this happen to the industry? Where did the passion go? Where did the effort go? Where did the creativity go? Where did the soul go?

Technological change has made "cycles" vastly different. Ebooks, streaming video and games, online/digital purchases vs. physical media, it all rots the foundation of our culture. There's nothing to preserve and pass down, nothing to ensure as a quality product to be enjoyed for years to come. Ephemeral work is the present and future. Everything is reduced to food- consumed and discarded through the ass. Never preserved, never remembered, only processed and dumped. True art is dead for the foreseeable future in the wake of technological reality.

in the same boat lads

Yea Forums is an endlessly churning, topologically mixing miasma of contrarianism and strategic belief-construction. Within the context of Yea Forums, the answer to any "is X dying/hated now?" question is always either "yes," "not yet," or "it already did but now we've come full circle."
This is why it is so dangerous to suspend your skepticism on Yea Forums and allow it to feed you beliefs, something I've unwittingly found myself doing every now and then. On one hand, its uncompromising critique of everything it touches does make it a source nuanced and valuable positions that are severely lacking elsewhere, but even the correct views will eventually fall to the passage of time and dedication to contrarianism, and you will be left with nothing but cognitive dissonance, self-hatred, and doubt

The biggest problem here is the "uncompromising critique of everything it touches does make it a source nuanced and valuable positions that are severely lacking elsewhere" bit. Alternate positions are never taken seriously elsewhere, so a chaotic mess that you get here is the only chance for real discussion between wildly different viewpoints to take place. It's a moderation issue across the net to try to censor discussion to a particular narrative, and I'm afraid they'll win in the next 5 years.

This is a very dramatic claim and not one I agree with. I also don't see how it relates to my post
The transition from physical media to digital purchases is not as troubling as you seem to think it is. The difference between a story recorded in words on a page and a story recorded in bits on a hard drive is negligible; they are still each a single work of art consisting of information being stored in a physical object. The magic of a movie has little to do with whether it's on a film reel, a blu-ray, downloaded on iTunes, or saved in a folder of pirated films. The magic is in the information that comprises the movie; the images, the shots, the dialogue, etc. As long as any given individual has a system for creating information, distributing that information, and preserving that information, in the most abstract way possible, art will survive.
One thing I do share your worry about though is streaming only content. That I do believe destroys art because it removes ownership and control of the relevant instance of information and makes it far, far easier for every instance of that information to be destroyed.

retard

nobody does. haven't played a game since last year

Digital art = DRM art =~~= Streaming art. By placing digital rights management on the average game/movie/book that transcend a disc/paper book/tape, you've said that only pirates that break such limitations can share such a work and preserve it without legal limitation, in that way that one man hands a book to another. Streaming is a greater danger, but without a means for widespread piracy, make no mistake that digital distribution is no better than it.

just play League of Legends until your love of video-games rekindles

That really isn't true in my experience. In any random set of humans there will of course be a number of them who shut out any differing views and judge their opponents points based on conclusions rather than reasoning, that's inevitable. But if a poster here is honest and thorough in explaining their point, I nearly always see it met with pretty substantive responses, far more often than any other social media platform I've seen. Anyone who just finds the conclusion and greentexts it with a condescending comment are usually rightly btfo if there's good reasoning they're overlooking

Are you trying to quote real life here? Because that's an extremely variant experience where each individual you're talking to has different standards of proof and opinions, vs. the rules and regulations of large internet discussions forums. Of course real people you talk to are going to receive your sourced knowledge differently, but you can't go and redpill your whole state like that.

Cook meth and have sex.

"Piracy" is only meaningful within the context of modern copyright law, which can and will change. What is called "piracy" now is simply a manifestation of the same behavior that carried all of our oldest artworks and oral traditions into the present: the receipt and dispersal of information. That's a constant that the human race will not outgrow, if you ask me.
DRM was a part of this I hadn't considered and I agree with your point, it does also pose a threat.
Thanks doc

The market is currently bloated with too many shareholders trying to capture lightning in a bottle or just churn out fan service sequel upon sequel. Same shit that Hollywood has gone through. Oversaturation and lack of new ideas. Imagine pitching crash bandicoot to someone that had never heard of it, today.

too many women and poc in the industry

persona 3, baroque, call of cthulhu dark corners of the earth just off the top of my head.
