Who /30+years/ gamer here?

Same, but I don't play games anymore. I feel fucking jaded with video games.
>gen alpha
Is that what they're actually called? I've seen that name before, but didn't believe it.

me :)

I'm becoming a wizard on Wednesday. I don't have any special plans for it so I'll probably play some fighting games as usual.

how do you know that without personal experience?

maybe she doesn't want to settle for fat/beta men? It's absolutely easier for women due to beta males but some men have standards. I turned down girls in high school because I didn't find them attractive enough. I lost it at 17 with one I did find attractive. Some people just have standards, like I said, or are content with masturbating.

Based for not caring. Incels are the absolute worst, just failed normalfags. Volcels are enlightened. You're not missing much, dude.

Turned 30 yesterday bros... feels the same man.

Same. Kinda want to die but also don't.

Any of the elderly in this thread have some advice to impart on a zoomer struggling through a CS degree?

life is beautful user, keep yourself busy with a hobby, i myself draw for fun and started doing pixel art

Don't force yourself down a career path that doesn't excite you or make you happy being part of just do what makes you happy, life is short man. If you don't enjoy it just fuckin drop it and do something you like

Gen alpha, also known as 2010s' kids, is what will come after gen z.

Hobbies don't interest me. I tried drawing and don't have anything I want to draw. I program but there's nothing I want to make. Everything else is escapism. It's not a new thing and I'm living a healthy lifestyle despite it.

Gonna be 31 next month. Got a job late last year and bought a dozen games since then but only had the time to beat at least three of them.

How financially secure is everyone ITT. The thought of being 30 and still renting apartments, living paycheck to paycheck, is terrifying.

36 year old NEET here. My left thumb started hurting like a motherfucker a few months ago. I'm not sure if it's arthritis or tendinitis. Also, I've been having a nagging pain in one of my armpits. I think my time is coming.

I've witnessed my boomer parents getting older (but also realizing how spry and active you are in your 60s) and you learn that everyone on some level locks in to their interests/aesthetics in the teens and 20s. Mother's mother told mother she still thought/felt like she was 20something mentally. Mother felt the same way. I feel the same way. It was a false conception of mine that becoming geriatric meant you become like the stereotype of the old lost/greatest/silent generation. It's not. Rolling stones, hippy shit, pool, weed and motorcycles is now grandparent land. So give it enough time and weebshit and gaming and retarded memes will be what grandparents do.There's a few things you'll develop as you get older - they now love auctions and they are legit great for getting great furniture and other stuff. But they won't suddenly turn into a babushka and a old man 'get off my lawn' type.

Go to doctors, get bloodwork. I feared I had diabetus due to foot vibrations. I am not prediabetic or diabetic. It was B12 deficiency that multivitamin fixed. I also have hypothyroidism and a fatty liver, which will require more work to fix. The latter. The former is just a pill. Pills here. We're all louises now, user.

33 here and living with mom since she gets pension and pays for us to rent a place. When she eventually goes, so will I since I have no job that pays well enough to live on my own, I just have a little online job that pays for our food and bills. My left foot has also started to swell up like a bee stung it so I'm pretty sure I have diabetes, and I'm lightheaded and dizzy a lot more than I used to be. Looks like I won't be around in time for sex bots. I hope I'll be around at least to play the FF7 remake, I really liked playing the original in the winter of '98.

addiction to gaming and cola during the day keeps my mind out of the suicidal weeds.

I'll see you at the end of the month

30 in a couple of weeks. Been NEET for a bit because of bad circumstances. I've kept myself busy and learned to cook really good food, and now trying to get back on my feet. I have enough money to move out, but I feel like it's all wasted on rent when I could save it.. but living with your elders is also hard specially when they want you to take care of pets and other relative's kids that they took in when you, yourself, are not in the best situation as it is. I'm not even playing games anymore, maybe 8 hour's worth in a month.

31 here, in 9 days I'll be 32 and I'm a failure as a human.

I make 100k a year and have a ton of money saved but I still live in an apartment. I don't want to move into a house until I find a waifu to marry.

34 here, dead end job with no prospects on it getting better. But at least Atelier Ryza comes out soon. Meanwhile I'm playing Super Nep RPG and Tropico 4.

I agree with the 3rd user. Show feet.

24 and I live with my mom because I’m gone 6-8 months out of the year. I met cute girls and they find me attractive, but everyone just wants to fuck around and not look for a serious relationship. I have no idea what I’m going to do other than work, play vidya and throw money at artists to please my degenerate desires.

I'm 27. Anime became my life recently. I don't play video games as much anymore outside of nostalgic stuff but anime is definitely the greatest thing ever created imo.

Here's some potential life fuel. 2020 is a new generation. I've only lived 3 gens so far
>90s
>00s
>10s
Only 1 sucked so far (10s) so maybe the 20s will be good? Like maybe all the lgbt garbage will finally stop.

I literally have nothing to my name.

Me too. It's a worrying life. Currently have $10 to make it to the 20th with.

Nigga, you're young as fuck. You've got tons of time to fix whatever is wrong in your life if you put in the effort.

If by CS you mean Computer Science, stop immediately and get into network administration

I grew up in an era where everyone could learn web development, and by the time I could make a career of it I was faced with competing against Indian/Chinese nationals could ALWAYS do a better job and be paid pennies to the dollar in their local currencies

Get a career that MUST involve local hands-on maintenance. Anything else in the IT industry has or will be outsourced to third-world countries. Be the guy who has to physically reboot servers or install WAPs and your career is guaranteed

I've been a neet for nearly two and a half years and I'm down to $400 but I got a job offer last week

lmfao, based boomer making me contemplate suicide

a generation is like 20 years

34 here. Someday even your most cherished games will bore you to tears even if it's a skinner box like tf2. Best to get hobbies and friends so you can satisfy your need for company and cultivation. There are people twice your age living paycheck to paycheck so it's not too late to try your hardest. Life is limited, no reason to quit or half-ass it.

This hit me yesterday which got me down in the dumps. I was thinking about
>oh wow, I need to find friends so i'm not a loser
then shortly realizing
>wait... i'm at the age where family should be the thing i'm striving for

Based Grandpa laying down the truth.

Actually there definitely is. If you don't believe in afterlife then trying hard is pointless seeing as how your end result will be the same as lets say a homeless person.

Fuck all the zoomers who LARP as successful family men. This website fools you into thinking having a wife and children is the "redpilled" thing to do. You have to follow your dreams first and make something of yourself or you'll be struggling twice as much with a family on your back. Even if it takes you 20 years it's far better to get the dream done first than being dragged down by responsibilities. Be careful and don't get any STDs.

You don't need a girl to be a success. Only you can define what success is, not anons trying to bum you out.

>your need for company and cultivation
you fucking what? the older I get the less I want to be around other people. Going to a convention once a year or so is more than enough social interaction.

Yes trying hard is on the grand scheme of things pointless but there's a reason you're a human instead of algae, it's so you can do human things to the best of your abilitty. Plus doing your best feels better in the long-term than laziness and fear.

Nah i agree. I honestly don't have any interest in marrying or having a family. The only people that try to make others feel like a loser for not having kids are single parents struggling and are miserable as fuck. I don't give a fuck about
>what about the suture of the white race??
so I honestly don't care to have one.

>this bullshit again
take a shower, hit the gym, get a clue

You're visiting one of the most popular social websites on the internet right now.

What i'm saying is don't be too hard on yourself if your job isn't as good as someone else's. I see people all the time feeling so depressed for not being "a somebody".

is this the daddy thread owo?

>34
>Job pays OK but I hate it
>been playing FF14 lately
>Havent been laid in like 6 months
Life isn't horrible desu, but i just feel nothing at the moment. I want to quit my job so fucking bad.

The weirdest feeling is getting older but looking in the mirror and I don't see it. I see the same person that was there 5-6 years ago. Most people still assume im like 27-28 or so. I guess that's good, but I don't really know where I fit in in the world anymore. Ive also lost interest in most girls i meet. Dont know what to do with myself.

>hit the gym
No need. I'm not a manlet. :)

If they have ambition unfulfilled it's because they're looking at the horizon instead of down at their feet at all the little steps they need to take. Being grateful is also a virtue.

I'd never off myself simply for the fact is I want to see if all this futuristic shit talked about comes to be

Do you think you can beat zoomers up?

At the base of it all those games are essentially "do this, do that" simulators albeit with a more streamlined interface than real work. Do the gym thing, that's good for your heart.

Just turned 21 today

It all feels so hopeless at this point.

Can't wait to play majora's mask and harass cute zoomer nurses.

Are you not interested in having children ever? your eggs are on a ticking bomb

Now I'm looking forward to getting old.

Turned 32 today.
Gonna try a no leveling run in Dark Souls today, see how far I can get. Might be fun.

this thread gives me (22) some hope, I atleast want to balance exorcise and gaming when i’m 30

Good to see +30yo neets here. Beeing a neet for the last 10 years. Life isn't for me. Games help me to do no kill myself.

That's all the millennials and zoomers, really. The "grind" of life is fucking pointless. You maybe go to college or learn a trade, then you work for 50 years and then you die with nothing exciting happening in-between, except terrible shit like family and friends dying, ending romances or possibly starting a family you never wanted and dealing with divorce or more tragedy.

The grind is a meme, always has been. Getting to this point in humanity is fucking pointless. It's nothing but boredom 24/7. It's why rich people often times fucking kill themselves or indulge in heavy drugs and wild sex: because the "grind" is gone so they're just fucking bored of human life. So even WITH the grind this happens, now imagine you cut off a chunk of the grind and now you're alone but with money and even less of a purpose.

Yeah, you can do a lot with some nice lottery money, make some dreams happen. But fact is, most of us aren't motivated by life enough to do so.

how the fuck do you 30+ NEETS do it? Arent you worried about what you'll do when your parents die?

Ill be honest, for all the shit ive done in my life, and to be honest, i can't complain, ive gotten to experience pretty much everything I've wanted to, but in the end, i think the happiest I ever was was when I was a NEET in my early 20s. I miss it so fucking much.

Yes, I am afraid. I will probably commit suicide.

31. Was a virgin until 25. Now I have a wife, two kids, house and a full time job. Life is pretty good.
I thought I was going to be a wizard but life can surprise you if you actually expose yourself and do things which might seem uncomfortable at first.

38
own a condo
a decent vehicle
make around 45k a year
about a years salary in savings

no wife
no EX wife
no kids
no pets

dad wants grandkids but mom said thanks for not making her a grandmother. she was a kidfree person at heart, just fucked up and had me. at least she didnt take it out on me though.

fuck a family. i take a woman home about once every few weeks through tinder or by being out in public and not giving a fuck and asking for numbers, dont really want a relationship either so it works out.

they key is to not care.

This is true. For the longest time I thought i'd die a virgin, and then it literally all started happening once I was in a better social circle. I can't even count the girls Ive slept with, and have had relationships, but unfortunately unlike you, still haven't found the right person. Ive kinda stopped looking/caring though. Its not a priority rn.

Wizards definitely overstate how hard it is to get laid though. Try even a little and you'll literally trip into pussy at some point without even trying.

dont kill yourselves bros. remember your life was given by God who created you from nothing

>if you actually expose yourself and do things which might seem uncomfortable at first
This is literally the most important piece of information if you have trouble with girls/women. You don't just find a girlfriend by randomly stumbling into her by yourself and then getting married. You find a gf by building social circles of both men and women and getting out more with them and branching off and connecting with more and more people. Building social circles is the most important piece.
