>>736595056The cold hard truth is that gaming was NEVER good. Perchance.
>kids born in 2002 will grow up thinkingI highly doubt that. Not a single coherent thought in those rotten brains.
>>736595056so true
>born after 9/11 so you have no frame of reference for what the world was like before a major cultural and moral shift>born early enough that your parents likely tossed you a smartphone in your fledgeling, mongrel years to occupy your attention in place of real parenting >born too late to see the peak of gaming, TV and movies Having kids after 2000 just feels like cruelty.
>>736595372>Gen Alpha are even more screwed, just a reverberating wave of the previous generation since culture has stagnated>Gen Beta will be born to live in pods, with no concept of how great the world could be
Such is life. There's a disturbing amount of 7th-gen apologists on this board.

>>736595554A lot of bad gaming trends were started in the 7th gen especially in the Western AAA sphere, but there was a lot good AA games in Japan, Europe and America to justify feeling that the 7th gen wasn't all horrible and had many bright spots. Outside of Japanese AA titles in the 8th gen, it was the last gen like that really.

>>736598251Im sure plenty had hand me downs and discounted ones from gamestop, everyone has seen that one fat dusty kid that looks in the used section of last gen games cause its all he could afford. Zoomers are that fat dusty poor kid a console late cause he was too poor.
Uhm, no? I was born 99 and I can recognize the golden age of videogames, movies and music happened right before I was born. You can be young and still agree things were indeed better in the past, long before you were even born. Of course this nuanced taked will be ignored and I will get 0 (You)s because I'm a rational, non-tribalistic man.
>>736595056There's a video by some insecure dumbass circling around expressing nostalgia for back when games were "masculine", and it's almost entirely about the decade of brown shooters that I absolutely despised.

>>736598251The PS2 and it's games were dirt cheap at Gamestops up until 2012 or so. Plenty of kids had one since it was affordable.
>>736598714This is true though but not in a way retards here think. More often than not people born after a certain year aren't interested in media before their youth so they'll naturally claim whatever they played when they were a kid was the peak of vidya and won't even give older games a second glance.

>>736598848Well I'm not "most people". My favorite games and movies are from the time before I was born.

>>736595056>There are people right now who don't know about 9/11Man, "we will never forget" aged badly.
>>736598935If you haven't yet you will soon realize everything is dictated by what normalfags do and say because there's just more of them. Your voice will get drowned out unless some faggot e-celeb starts an aggressive propaganda campaign about how a specific "old thing good" and the gullible retards worshipping him gobble it up. It doesn't matter if you don't care about normalfag opinions unless you want new vidya to not be shit but let's be honest here it won't get any better from this point onward anyway.>>736599006Pic rel was the OG for a lot of anons here.

>>736599273I'm non-American, there was a 20 year old at my job who found out about 9/11 through me, he had no clue. It's not being handled in school anymore and it's getting less and less coverage on its anniversaries each year.
>>736599090I’m pretty sure that I only learned about 9/11 for the first time when Bin Laden got killed
>>736595056This but 2010 kids.They unironically feel bad for 'uncs'(people born before them) as they say that didnt grow up with Fortnite and multiplayer slop.Keep in mind that for them any game you think is a gem that is old,for example Burnout 3 or idk FFX is ASSAnd if the game is PS1 or don't you dare pre PS1 era they don't even consider it a real game.>Source:I have a 2010 cousin and his friends.

>>736598253Yes. It was Jewish machinations that led to the complete crackdown and stranglehold of Jewmerican ZOG economics and civil liberties.People don't care about 9/11 because some jew new yorkers that voted for a muslim communist to lead them died, they care because their economy and their liberty died.
doubt it
>>736595056They did, but they were too young to play games.
>>736597871It was the origin of the obsession with security, which was later mirrored with the obsession with "safety". It gave all the dickless busybodies an excuse to throw their weight around for essentially their own amusement.
>>736595132>muh millienial video game unc blockbuster sovl vs their zoomer indies and emulator slopKek, gaming has never been better than ever. You can download practically anything from the last 40 years of kino in a matter of minutes and play it in bed.>inb4 muh AAALiterally collapsing as we speak.
>>736598103yeah "just a bombing" thats well even looking at games to kerp on topic you had games like dino crisis 3 completely changing into that awful sci fi crap and mgs 2 almost getting canned because of 9/11 making terrorist attacks a sore subject for a while, just a peek into how it changed everything for the worse but hey at least some jew got his insurance payout and opened the door to the government just stripping rights away for muh safety while killing off the lingering 90s optimism and hope for the future
>>736596861>>736596925I played roblox when I was like 8, Im nearly 30
>>736599909You reminiscing about the wtc brings my anger up that people already moved on from what happened with all the trouble with Assange and Snowden which really shows where our society is at
>>736598103It isnt Americans obsessing about 9/11. It's almost always foreigners that think they're apart of it somehow.

>>736595416>Gen Alpha are even more screwed, just a reverberating wave of the previous generation since culture has stagnatedIt's not their fault, the CIA literally and unironically killed metal/rock and funded rap music. That's why zoomers have to pick between black culture or recycling culture from older generations.
I mean, yeah, if you really got into video games as a kid, you probably thought they were great at the time.
>>736597871It's when the western world got pushed deep into fighting Isreal's proxy wars, you fucking retard.The 2008 crash is also the reason everyone is screwed financially now.
>>736600759I meant in terms of game design
>>736601193I really hope those quotes aren't real because he's a fucking retard if they are.
>>736597236>they will be unable to make decisions and solve problems without consulting an AI assistant like chat gptI mean that's still an improvement over zoomers who lever learned to problem solve and claim older generations were 'abused' when they find out most of us learned how to do basic everyday things on our own.
>>736601193>muh glowiesIt certainly wasn't because rap and RnB started to print money. What a retarded post.
>>736601384>Zoomers nigged themselves voluntarilyGrim.

>>736595239
>>736601193>Gen Z has rapidly a declining white demographic and rapidly growing brown demographics>Rap music, ebonics and afro-esque hair becomes popularHow could this possibly happen...
>>736601478The difference is those people were always a joke, now wiggerdom is an entire generation's sole culture.
>>736601193It would be extremely funny if zoomer nigger worship is solely thanks to glowniggers.

>>736595056Times have changed, the internet is easily accessible, as those kids get older they get curious about older games and play them.
>>736601193Is that any possible reason why the CIA would want to promote black culture?
>35+ geriartic miserable faggots seething over the next generationwhy is this behavior so common? nobody cares unc, you lost (both your hair and culture), generational infighting has been going forever (and I hope our generation puts a stop to it, I never shit on alphies personally) and supposedly each subsequent generation is dumber and lazier, well faggot as you can see the world didn't fall apart so it's just your balding rotting ass head seething at young people because you are out of touch with the reality frfrif I enjoy fortnite and fifa and consider them the peak of the industry then it's none of your business, I'm having fun so you can keep seethingif I spend more time on tiktok than reading your ancient slop books then it's none of your business, I'm having fun so you can keep seethingpeople live their lives for themselves, not to conform to your twisted perception of what is right or wrong
>>736595056There's already visibly a shift in younger posters on /v/ but I'm not sure if we're at 2002 kids just yet. Right now the early zoomers are nostalging out over brown and bloom era. That's the visible shift right now in what they find nostalgic. Its gonna take a little while longer for the 2002 born kids to start talking nonsense about the good era of gaming too but perhaps we're already there and I'm unsure if i just missed it.I'm already at odds with what 70% of what this board is talking about that i get told to go to /vr/I'm not sure who starts the 'uncslop' video games threads but it might be those born in 2002 for all i know.
>>736601645The change in internet and culture between 2013 and 2015 is crazy. Like decades of change in a couple of years.
>>736601426>>736601548You conceded very fast
>>736601837>so you can keep seethingThe irony is lost on you
>>736601864>All the most popular games now are remakesNot even kids today like modern games.
>>736602019>Playing remakes of older games>Watching clip compilations of old shows>Listening to remixes of old songs>Sharing memes of old charactersIf anything we should be applauding Gen Z/A for not blindly swallowing the slop that Jews are trying to forcefeed them.
>>736601837It's a normal generational fear, a fear that your generation will be forgotten.But we live in an age of easy to access information and massive record keeping, younger generations can see the past, them from experiencing it now is whether or not we'll let them.
>>736602019I find it bizarre when some of the mock older games like Deus Ex when it literally has no modern commentaries. There's a lot of cases of this of where they say X old game is bad but theres nothing they can point to that did it better.Simply because the industry stopped making a lot of these sort of games.
>>736601837kek, you don't even realize you're the same retard except on the opposite side

>>736598051Eastern Europeans growing up next to drug addicts and gang violence and Japanese people who grew up seeing a crumbling economy, a sense of dread and all sorts of freak crimes in the 90's would agree with you probably
>>736602698>my seething is totally not like your seethinglollmao>>736602946He's very clearly flustered about getting called out like that. Must've really struck a nerve.
>>736603040>calling out our retarded behavior means you are seethingnuh-uh
>>7365981039/11 itself was pretty bad, but it's really what it caused that fucked everything up. The PATRIOT act, increased surveillance of Americans, decreased trust in the government, more hatred and fear as well as uncertainty about the future. It kind of shifted the overall emotions of the American people from "we're on top of the world and everything is just gonna get better from here" to "we are constantly under attack". We were still riding that high of beating the USSR 10 years ago and only had some internal problems like the LA riots in the meantime. In truth, I don't think has ever been a more successful terror attack, though I don't believe that they acted without assistance from our own government. Buildings don't just fall down like that from fire and "Tower 7 just did that" is not a good explanation. But it sure got Americans scared and let the government start surveilling everybody in addition to increasing public support for foreign invasions. All who dissented could just shamed by bringing up the towers.

I guarantee you someone who was 15 in 2017 and grew up on Roblox and early Fortnite got a better experience than someone born in 1992 who dealt with brown and bloom shooters and the absolute worst Nintendo games ever at the same age.

>>736605854Well, I was born in 1992 and I never had to worry about brown and bloom shooter or nintendo because after the PS2 era I went full PC gaming and had a great time with early Steam and emulators galore.

>>736605980>>736606135I'm not saying that people didn't deal with those things, but it was less of an issue than Roblox and Fortnite because there was a clear transition from console to PC.

>>736606282Way to miss the point even when it was spelled out for you. There was a clear transition from console to PC to YOU, retard. Globally this wasnt the case.

>>7365953722008 financial crash was a way bigger event and cultural shift than 9/11 it just wasn't as immediate. 9/11 was just a terrorist attack that scared people, the housing market crash was when the whole economy was exposed as being rotten to its very core, we just kept pretending we didn't see it, and now we're starting to see the effects of something that's becoming increasingly impossible to ignore
>>736601193Was this retard alive during scene/post hardcore and deathcore days? No? Kids don't wanna listen to your boomer ballads? The hecking spooks did it. Ignoring The Doors, Stones, Eagles, Grateful Dead being ground 0 for boomer psychological manipulation
>>736605854Both of those games make their money using predatory tactics to trick unaware kids into entering their parents credit card info to get cosmetics.
It's like the goldenage of comic books where they won't even remember these rudimentary, less fun games but will still talk about them endlessly and cause them to be more valuable than modern ones. They're even starting to "grade" them and sell them on ebay.

>>736601193Rock became too anti-establishment in a very real and constructed way and it spooked them. Too much noticing. Same thing happened with punk, which was promptly turned into a retarded fashion trend about how cool it was to be a junkie (Sex pistols were industry plants)Gangster culture and GIRL POWER doesn't pose a credible threat to glowniggers, hence why its shilled so much. They stopped promoting music that encourages noticing.
>>736601645Please acquire some self respect and stop capitulating to a horde of bitter, jaded sociopaths who routinely claim that they're better than you because they can't grow up.
>>736608654One thing you don't have access to is the time of it though. You have access to all the single player things, sure, but not the multiplayer that withers with time. The multiplayer communities thanks to server browsers are gone. LAN parties aren't really a thing anymore either.
