Video games are probably one of the most effect deep programming and conditioning tools ever created. From Sonic on the sega genesis, where mere contact with anything is enough to harm you, and traps enemies and spikes are hidden everywhere, to later games where all you do is go somewhere to fight, to modern fusion of metagame economics and competition, it's all just brainwashing.

An interesting thing I noticed about people is that in the absence of a visible force directly telling them what to do (think a slave master with a whip), they are unable to notice or comprehend slavery built into a system. A video game is a virtual world created by the mind of another, and within their world you have to submit to their design. You are a slave to their avbitrary and bizarre decisions. However submission to this and going into the labyrinth are reframed as maturity and competence. Look, I submit and learned to do what you want how you want when you want so hard that I win every time! And then in the future my predictor networks have been so pruned down and trained that I can't even see or think about what I'm doing, I just robotically know what I probably should do with little trial and error. Aren't I a clever little monkey?

At its most extreme people can't even do anything on their own because they've been trained only some objects can be interacted with and are used to being told what to do and where to go at all times. But it gets better, you assume the mind of the creator has guaranteed the game is winnable, so it induces persistence where perhaps you should turn back and re-evaluate. It's basically the deltas on the electrified floor in Brave New World.

Use of music (auditory / emotional association and entrainment), context cues, color coding, narrative arcs, etc are common. These are conditioning regimes.

So what, video games are conditioning tools mold you into a complacent golem? Maybe that's a secondary effect, but I don't believe that's their main purpose.

All these things were already cracked.
Check Nick Land hyperstition systems.

You are quite literally rambling. Are you high?

Low key I think a non-trivial contributing factor to where white nationalism came from in the 2010's onwards was that a generation of white youth had the concepts of honor, martial virtue, self-sacrificing heroism, etc. strongly imprinted on them from a decade of playing Halo / Call of Duty / Medal of Honor / Battlefield, and then that translated pretty smoothly to romantic ethnonationalism. Which of course wasn't the intent - they were trying to condition them to wage war in the Middle East - but it was an effective psyop, just with unforeseen consequences

Every time.

Agreed, but the finer points of the underlying scripts put into the subconscious have to be considered. It's like an OS to run programs on, and so you must understand what you're actually working with. See eg Wizard of Oz as a script in MK Monarch.

I played mostly a couple good n64 games, cs1.6 and vanilla wow at the end. Even hd a revival with wow private servers and since you dint have to pay a sub, you could multibox a whole raid, and writing the code for that became a game on its own. Everything else felt like slop and not enjoyable. I dont get how people are mindfucked by rocket league for example...how does that not get old after a week.

Yes
Numerica is a shit hole.

Yeah honestly without video games I might have actually done something with my life, great work everybody creating a shitty unlivable world and then giving people the perfect way to slowly commit suicide in it while entertaining themselves
