I have few friends to talk about vidya with and its fun. Talking about vidya on /v/ is bit frustrating because everyone tries to pivot towards politics and shitflinging when there is any disagreement.
Talking with friend:
>"Its a good game, just didn't like [character] because he/she seemed annoying"
>Really? I actually liked him/her a lot. [Scene] really moved me
>"Yeah that was a cool scene, still just felt he/she was annoying and reminded me of another character from other game so I guess I'm biased lol"
>Fair enough lol
And on /v/
>"Its a good game, just didn't like [character] because he/she seemed annoying"
>OMG RETARD NOT UNDERSTANDING [character] I BET YOU ARE [another character]TRANNY KILL YOURSELF
>"I just didn't like their personality wtf is wrong with you. Not even [scene] help it for me."
>>proving my point
>Kys and dilate troon
Same with not liking one/two levels/mechanics or disagreeing with writing choices, character designs or about game's graphics and performance.
Oh, and if you write post that is over 5 sentences your post is considered a text wall or leftist meme etc. which dumbs down discussion. Feels like twitter.
So unless you already share the base board opinion on a game and like to talk about American identity politics, its kinda pointless to have any kind of discussion about opinions and different views here. And if a game has stuff like dev having political opinion that is left from the current US president and/or /pol/, or the game has a gay character, discussion is over before it even starts. And Jesus Christ almighty if you say you are tired of idpol shitflinging, you get even more of it. Majority of /v/ just likes idpol stuff, mods included.

That is why its more fun to talk with friends and kinda be hyped up and positive about stuff. On /v/ you can just shit on stuff and argue.

For the occasional very rare discussion you can find in threads where shitposters and idpol addicts don't go to or people don't bite.
Also some console/vidya news etc. because I rather not use other cesspool social media sites.
Also I sometimes try and make vidya threads, but without bait or off-topic OPs they really don't go anywhere so I have given up with them.

>>744459063
Depends where you find them. I have two friends from /trash/ believe it or not who have brains and can talk about vidya. Two are old IRL friends and rest are from competitive fightan scene.
If you try to find friends from /v/, it is like playing roulette and betting on green. Good luck. I have talked with lots of anons and /v/irgins especially and it just ends up being
>Miserable fucks
>Above + idpol addiction
>Horny is their whole personality
>Above + They develop crush on me for some reason
>Ghosts after few days because they get bored when we have any differing taste in vidya
I met one cool /v/irgin once but they deleted their acc out of nowhere. Considering he added more /v/irgins maybe they got spammed. Always use your alt first on discord.

Anyway my biggest recommendation is to actually pick a scene/fandom you want to interact with to even some extent. Hide your powerlevel, keep especially your own politics away even when others express theirs, and just be generally polite and nice and surprisingly quite many people will like you. Not saying you should act against your personality, but if your personality needs you to talk about trans-people nonstop in negative way, it makes it quite hard to find friends who are at least somewhat normal and rational. Same if you are kneejerk contrarian or "edgyboy"(damn I hate that edgy means these days just to be as rude and miserable as possible when before it was just you being dark and *cool* without any shame ala Shadow the Hedgehog or Jak from jak 2)
I hope you do find a nice space tho. Good luck anon-kun.

No.
But politeness and kindness being considered a feminine trait is strange. Makes it that some people who are insecure about their masculinity would avoid it. And see this board alone how people consider people who express feminine traits. You rarely see polite and kind acts on this board, maybe just for that reason alone if anons see kindness as feminine attitude.

>>744463705
I don't. Some of the people are just naturally bisexuals and sees kind and polite acts as some kind of intimate interest.
Now that I think about it, I have heard quite many guys develops a crush towards a girl when she does even slightest nice thing or compliments them. That happened to me when I was like 12 yo, but when I became an adult of course I understood that politeness and kindness are just normal things that people should express towards each other. Social animals etc.
Some of the more idpol addicted people weren't as gay/bi(or then they didn't tell me) except one furry and one /pol/-user who was also into blacked.

There's a reason "gentle" and "man" were glued together to refer to men of high status and virtue. Blind, non-judgemental kindness are feminine traits.
>>
>>744464875
>Blind, non-judgemental kindness are feminine traits
Now I understand why some people dislikes anime and shounen protags who are kind to everyone. I never really thought about it too much, just thought people simply didn't like some anime or anime at all, but I guess something like Luffy's or Deku's attitude of kindness is considered very feminine in west.
You learn something everyday. Thank you, anon.

>and it's an annoying as fuck character too
He's an honest character who fights for his friends to no matter what.
Imo he's top MCs ever. Him being voiced by a woman doesn't matter to me, I think it fits his character and her voice acting is 10/10 in general(and beats any en dub. I could go in-depth with my opinion on dubs but that just would start a pointless flamewar). I can agree Luffy is annoying sometimes tho because he's dumb as a rock lmao but it fits his character and rarely comes out of nowhere. Tho when it comes to anime his dumb antics are more painful due to pacing.

>>744465331
Eh, I don't think its too much on characters because I see someone like Tanjiro called cuck etc. and was wondering why. Him just being kind to everyone and loyal and protective of his friends is admirable.
Don't get me wrong, Onizuka is fucking amazing and its not like I demand all male characters are the exact same(my favorite char is prob Akagi if I would have to start ranking anime characters), but just hearing how non-judgemental kindness is considered feminine really opened my eyes when it comes to this. Can't force people to agree with me because that's just stupid but it just makes me sad that many people see what I treat as very human trait, instead as a feminine/cuck/basedboy or whatever trait. It kinda explains people developing a crush thing I mentioned earlier. But I don't want to stop being nice and kind to others. What a dilemma. I'll head off to play vidya and have fun with it. Take care anons.

I 2010 I played a game called Wurm Online because it was getting constant threads on /v/. Dozens of us built a shitty little village, stole from our neighbors, harassed the mods, and it was a lot of fun. I made lots of friends from it and still play games with several of them from time to time. Some of them I only chat with when one of us sees the other playing an interesting game on steam.

I haven't been able to make friends on /v/ since then. I have never had that much fun playing games with /v/ again, either. Something happened after 2010 that fucked this place up forever.

to be fair, it's not like the group in question just suddenly got targeted out of nowhere for no reason. the initial response to the rise of transgenderism was generally more empathetic at the beginning, but once the SICK THE GIRLDICK, LESBIANS began and people started being forced to put their pronouns in work emails, people got sick of it all pretty quickly.

alright I know what you mean, and it's going to really suck for you the first few times, but you just gotta sorta take it. they're only saying you're going too far because they're selfish and trying to manipulate you. they will either adjust or stop talking to you, and if the latter happens, you gotta accept it and tell them to kick dirt if they don't like it. Trust me when I say I know how difficult it is to do that at first until you get used to it, but years down the line you'll thank yourself. A oneitis situation and a late night intervention from one of my best friends about it is what woke me up and made me force myself to stop being that way.

Service is super important to feeling whole as a human being, so there's nothing wrong with wanting to be nice. It's just about finding a way to express it that works for you.

I think about it like money. "Would I give this person $20 if they asked for it, no questions, without expecting it to be paid back?" If the answer is no, then don't give them anything beyond the same kindness you'd give a random stranger who stopped to say hello. Maybe I'll get them their favorite candy for their birthday or something.

If I wanna exercise my niceness, I volunteer. And even then, it's still not a magical fairy realm full of nice reciprocal people. Some of those people have made it their whole life and get mad at you if you just wanna show up on the weekend and leave. I've got mormons nearby who give out food to low income folks, and they're prolly the least worst. They don't care that I'm not religious either. If you ever get a chance to try the LDS raspberry preserves they give out to poor people, it's some really good shit.

I just brain-vomit into random usually unrelated threads on 4chan because I've become convinced that everyone who listened to me privately had ulterior motives and were just humoring me, as evidenced by lack of relevant replies beyond making a questioning grunt to get me to keep talking. It may just be the balanced and healthy back and forth between two well-meaning individuals but since inevitably it ends up in a situation where the only thing I get out of it is talking to a brick about video games I just inflict random passerby on 4chan instead

If you're nothing but nice to people, then that's all you are to them. The nice guy. If you want to be treated as a well-rounded individual, then you need to act like one. Be funny. Be interesting. Be honest. Be insightful. Niceness is only one of many factors of being social. Niceness is also the easiest and most braindead of these factors, so people will quickly clock you as a shallow and boring person if you're nothing but nice

youre supposed to temper your "friendship style" to match the person, basically some of your friends you can be more respectful towards as they can be sensitive, or more bantery if they find it funny, treating all your friends the same is a good way to also keep them at arms length because you dont have a personal connection to them, its also important to make mistakes and overstep your social boundaries by saying or doing the wrong thing with them, my closest friends are people Ive committed a social faux paus with and apologized to, and they have done the same for me, granted those people I knew since I was a teenager and Im 35 now
