what's with zoomers needing achievements to play old games? i don't get it
>>
They all have ADHD and need immediate gratification or they get bored.
>>
I would be retro achievements is used way more by older people than younger.

A friend of mine who's stuck in time and won't ever play anything older than the late 00s loves it.
>>
Zoomers don't care about achievements because they mainly play F2P and mobile games. Achievements are a mainly millennial thing because they were kids when the concept was introduced with 360 and PS3.
>>
>>723046757
The oldest zoomers were born in 97

>>723046885
So what? The youngest millenials were born 96.

>Achievements are a mainly millennial thing because they were kids when the concept was introduced with 360 and PS3
A subset of millennials were kids during 7th gen, and a subset of zoomers were kids during 7th gen. In other words, they're not just a millenial thing
>>
>>723046513
this was a nice site, shame what happened to it

>>723047081
They are mostly a millennial thing because most zoomers do not play games with achievements or games that cost money or even console or PC games.

QRD? Is this also related to the 4chan ban?
>>
>>723047735
TLDR
Clovers removal because of doxing was bullshit
Admin/mod doxxed another and posted a pic of the doxeds newborn
RA is ran by retards (which was obvious anyway)
>>
>>723047982
Ah ok thanks. Fuck those tards.
>>
>>723047962
yes
basically, one of the mods opposed the clover ban on discord
one of the other mods/admins doxxed him because of this and posted pics of his newborn baby in an attempt to scare him
dude running RA removed took the mod status off the guy who got doxxed, said it was for his protection
mod said fuck it and just left the project
>>
>>723046513
What's the point of achievements in general?
I wish I could turn them off on Steam.
>>
>>723047735
a very concise tl;dr is that pokemon clover, 4chan made pokemon firered romhack that was one of the most requested games on the site, was finally about to receive an achievement set. then some people (including the admin of the cutting room floor, iykyk) started a movement to get the game banned.
everyone on the staff didn't want it banned, so they released a statement saying they would allow everything that wasn't straight up illegal. those people got really mad and started sending threats to the staff, including the site's founder who was very hands-off. the founder got scared and overruled the admins decision, releasing a new statement (less than a day after the first one) saying they would not allow ""offensive"" content anymore, banned clover, and other games too.
a bunch of staff and longtime contributors quit, because the founder essentially caved to a vocal minority that was sending threats.
also one mod (the one who wrote the pastebin text) got doxxed because he was in favor of not banning clover, and received threats using photos of his newborn child (yes, really). the only way for someone to get access to that kind of info would be if they were on the admin channels on their plebcord, in other words there's a traitor among the admins
basically the site fucking imploded because the founder caved to doxxing threats from a small vocal minority who didn't want pokemon clover (a pokemon hack with 4chin humor) on the site
>>
>>723046963
Most millennials were not kids during the 7th gen, the last 1% that were are close enough to zoomers that they hardly qualify as millennials.
>>
>>723048169
>Five retards ruin it for everyone else
Come the fuck on man, maybe this will convince someone to start forking the concept to work offline through a database?
>>
Achievements saved video games for me
>>
>>723048282
Hopefully, the admin with the most technical knowledge, tele, quit when Scott reversed the team's decision to allow Clover.
>>
>>723048282
I think it would be incredibly funny if the database was wiped. Completely. The pastebin said that the removed stuff could not be recovered implying no backup.
>>
>>723046513
>zoomers even knowing that RetroAchievements exists
>zoomers even knowing that emulation exists
RA and emulation is more of a Millennial thing.

That said, achievements are nice in games if they incentivize players to do more shit or complete some challenges they wouldn't otherwise do. Shit achievements are when the game's littered with mandatory ones that you just amass the whole game without trying, like beating each chapter of a game and having each party member join.
As an added bonus, achievements (in theory) help you play a game for longer and explore it deeper, giving you more bang for your buck.
Where a $60 game might normally be beaten in 15 hours and be a complete waste of your time and money, an achievement to complete the "uber death megadungeon" on the hardest difficulty might mean you end up spending the next week practicing and doing optional content to bulk up your skills and your characters and git gud to finally beat the dungeon.

A fork will not happen.
They've swept all dissenting opinions and criticism on their forums, discord, reddit and they even have control over /vr/ threads (can't talk about RA there anymore).
They will just wait it out and hope everyone will forget this.
>>723048509

The coward got spooked and left the discord that was created to talk about it outside of RA. That discord doesn't exist anymore because there were no mods (autosweeped by discord bot). There's no more hope.

the achievements for the spyro trilogy are fun to do. though, I do wish we could vote to remove or add achievements to games. some of the ones for ace combat 0 seem so pointless and tedious

Really curious how the Sega System spam threads stay up for literal hours, and bump half the catalog off the board because the autist does like 50 of them at a time, but RA threads are getting deleted in less than 5 minutes.

there's a new discord with a lot of the non mentally ill users in it, pretty small from what I've seen looking at the members list but it's got the prominent members in it behind this whole thing (tomojin, nadia, wes, etc) should have got an invite anon!

In other words, devs, mods and admins yes, sure.
If you just play games, you literally don't matter to them. You're just as replaceable as anyone else.

I feel like most places online are more fucked up than 4chan at this point.
I think it's because a lot of people know that they are doing something bad but then find a way to morally justify it to themselves.
I'm giving people the benefit of the doubt here because the other possibility is that people feel more comfortable being openly evil.

>>723049397
The hope was tele, but if he really quit then it's over.
Also before the /vr/ thread got suspiciously deleted someone posted a screenshot of scott saying he was considering implementing a filter. That would be a good solution, basically it would work like steam where you have to explicitly allow adult content or else you won't even see it, but as far as I understand it was already proposed before and obviously not implemented, so I'm not sure why scott is bringing it up now. Does he really intend to reverse his decision and unban those games, essentially reverting to the stance in their first statement? I kinda find that hard to believe, considering how he's been scared shitless of pissing off xkeeper and his ilk during this whole process

what's with incel millennials getting fat and bald and whining about zoomers? Is it low testosterone? Or is it because they are having a hard time finding games they can play without getting their shit pushed in? You know, like RDR2

>you guys
>RDR2 game is le slow burn with grafix

translation:
it's slow
and tedious
and monotonous
and gameplay is so shallow and boring that it is almost non-existent

RDR2 is a dreadfully boring movie game. Mind-numbingly boring.

RDR2 is unironically a game for old cuck-faced millennial manbabbys who no longer have the fast-twitch muscle and rapid hand-eye coordination of their youth, who are embarrassed to play video games in front of their 7 to 14 year old kids.

RDR2 is for the most causal of casual gamer. RDR2 is literally the "Participation Trophy" of video games. Rockstar should rebrand it: "RDR2: The Safe Space... For the Aging Cuck-faced Millennial Manbabby"

RDR2 gameplay summary:
>time to mount my horse
>and now I'm just going to mosey on over to there
>and then I'm just going to mosey on over to there
>and now, oh, howdy folks, don't mind me, I'm just going to mosey on over to there
>yikes, a rabbit!
>time to do some fishing
>ahh, would you look at that wonderful sunset
>i hope I don't forget to take a screenshot
>welp, saddle up, it's time to mosey on over to there
>
>you gais, RDR2 is like GTA with horses

You cheugy old millennial Rockstar fanbois need to stop with that nonsense. At least be honest. RDR2 is like all the excitement and energy of bingo night at the senior center -- "B...6........D...4........A...2....". And this game isn't even a game. It is a movie occasionally interrupted by brief moments to act like a sight-seeing simulator. Worse is that the movie is as corny as it gets. You are such a whiny get-off-my-lawn old man, millennial.

>>723049687
from what i can see Scott has the jannies sweeping banning people complaining on any platform.

my issue isn't even that they delisted Clover, it was the reason why they did it. if he personally just said he thought it was too much heat for the site and he didn't want to deal with the controversy that would be fair but he specifically did it in response to a left wing hate mob on another website primarily made up of people who aren't even users of his site, but are well connected left wingers in places like GDQ. so getting shouted out on GDQ is the priority, it's all petty vain bullshit, censoring his critics, covering up the fact that one of their own staff members doxxed another staff member. just seems to me like he implicitly supports it if this isn't an issue to him at all.

>>723049661
Actually BahamutVoid singled out wes as the one person that wouldn't have done it. Apparently wes has been doxxed before or something like that
wes seems really weird though, dude unironically uses chatgpt for his responses. He normally writes in lowercase and without much punctuation then the next moment he writes with perfect punctuation and capitalization and typical llm-isms, it's fucked
>>
>>723049868
it's not even that, the people screeching about Clover are just part of a hate group. it has 4chan affiliations, they hate 4chan, they hate anything 'chuddy'. if it were a game made by some Hasan type dude that was full of anti-Semitic dogwhistles they'd be defending it. it's just about a social takeover of the website. they do this to everything, force the admins into panicking and making a bad decision to empower them but the cuck admins always stay defeated and bow to the mob. every spineless coward that bows down to these people just makes them stronger.
>>
>>723049835
Completely agree, anon. Also I hate to say it but Scott looks really suspicious in those messages, he didn't seem very concerned about the threats Bahamut received. Not saying he did it, but I wouldn't be surprised if he knew about it beforehand

So anything noteworthy happened after the mod published the pastebin, besides it being mass reported and taken down? Any statements from the founder or other staff, etc? I don't use discord
>>
>>723050651
literally nothing
there are like two threads on the sites forum about the censorship part of it but no one is talking about the doxxing at all as far as i can tell
>>
>>723050343
it's a shame because a lot of the sets are fun, it's been a neat way to experience some of my favorite old games. but i don't want to be beholden to a platform where some insane person who has pull at a speedrunning event completely unaffiliated with the project is the person actually calling the shots and the supposed project lead is too weak to stand up to outside pressure just means that stuff like this is gonna keep happening again and again. today it's complaining about this one romhack, tomorrow someone on bluesky or reddit will find another thing to be upset over and it'll start all over again.

>>723050862
aren't they locking any thread mentioning this or dissenting in any form and banning those people? pretty typical stasi purge.
>>
>>723050957
my guess is those all got deleted, so the only ones left are the ones that are only just a tiny bit negative at most.

You see it a lot with multiplayer games; if there's no exp bar or some kind of progression system they don't want to play it. They don't understand that you can play a game just because playing the game is fun.
This is that same logic applied to single player games. They need some meta reward system beyond just playing the game for fun.

Long ago, you could buy games with your achievement points until they realized no actual incentive was needed.

>>723046513
It's two things

1) You know how /v/ constantly goes all
>oh if there was only some way to verify someone played or beat a game before talking about it
Well, sites like RetroAchievements serve as a way to provide exactly that

2) It's more just a general excuse to get people to try to play a game. Look at the Achievement of the Week. Look at the Play This Set section in the newsletter. They're not actually any challenges or talking about the set, it's just a general recommendation or lead-in to play the game and then talk about it/share with others. That's just how it goes: people are more likely to talk about something when there's at least some basis of general agreement for it to be a recent topic, otherwise it's all just arbitrary and people often don't pay attention to one thing over another, making it difficult to start a convo about it.

>>723047459
Of course. Here is a simple summary of what happened:

A person got very mad that a game called "Pokemon Clover" was allowed on RetroAchievements. They threatened to tell everyone to leave the site if it wasn't removed. The website's bosses, especially the founder named Scott, got scared of these threats. Even though they first decided not to remove the game, they quickly changed their minds and deleted it to make the angry people happy. This made a lot of other people upset because the bosses broke their own rules and gave in to a bully.

In the middle of all this fighting, a very bad thing happened. Someone who works for the website took a private picture of a moderator's (BahamutVoid) new baby and shared it with others to hurt him. The website's bosses did not do enough to protect him or find who did it. They even removed him as a moderator, which made him feel alone and unsafe.

Because the bosses lied, gave in to threats, and let his family's privacy be invaded, BahamutVoid decided he could no longer trust them. He is leaving the website forever and shared this story so everyone knows how the bosses handled the situation poorly and broke the community's trust

My only masteries are the Spyro GBA games, and they're not much of a mastery at all. Like I think the only 2 achievements that aren't just progression/collecting it all is just
>Complete this one objective without losing your timed power-up
>Complete the game without collecting one of the main power-ups
It was kinda funny how the latter only took like, I dunno, just a couple hours or something IIRC

But good fucking lord was Spyro: Season of Ice a fucking nightmare to play. If I had a blog or a channel or something, it's a couple of games I'd bleat for hours about how much of an improvement the sequel was over it. Actually quite the accomplishment of developer growth.

>>723053751
i kind of feel the opposite honestly. developers rarely treat achievements seriously, you dont even have to 100% complete a game most of the time to get them all. a weird challenge run or some stuff showing cool easter eggs is way more satisfying because you tend to learn things about the game you didn't know and are way better at it.

i wonder if an argument could be made to Nintendo/Patreon/payment processors about copyright infringement here? then again he's well connected now because he kissed the bluesky ring, i'm sure every Patreon moderator/admin is on bluesky. checking his patreon statistics looks like he lost bakers and money over this, not a lot but still a hit.

Reminder Scott used to be a dev (not RA I mean an actual dev)

i think payment processors would be a safer bet. i don't think Nintendo would be interested because he's not hosting or facilitating any kind of piracy himself. but payment processors are applying their current standards so broadly you could get lucky and find someone at one of these credit card companies who bites. hell, they might even work with Nintendo to pressure Patreon over it. i'm pretty sure they've removed emulation projects from Patreon due to pressure from Nintendo in the past.

The funny thing about this, besides the "first step" bit, is that literally everyone on the mod team was against banning Clover. The first announcement was approved by all of them, and said RA would only not allow games that were illegal to own (like The Guy Game). The mods have effectively run the site for many years now, as Scott has been super hands off.
So what that person actually wants is for the whole team that works (or worked) on the site to get the boot, lmao.

He said he would create a server for RA members to talk about things without the fear of getting banned. Gave false hope to plenty of people posting on his comment wall. Later, after the discord had around 120 members (along with some shitstirrers that got banned on RA), he suddenly bails for this other super secret discord. The discord meant for us plebes was auto-deleted since it was created by bahamutvoid (the admin who got doxed), who deleted his discord account.

Now we're left in limbo, without hope, and with our only discourse being possible on 4chan of all places. Thanks I guess, faggot.

That's not how discord works. If the original owner of a server deletes their account or gets banned the ownership transfers to the next member with the highest permissions level.

Good thing I never mentioned anything about thinking it was instant gratification, huh dipshit? I was refuting his claim that its ADHD. Again, maybe you should LEARN TO FUCKING READ A POST instead of making shit up in your head. Cant wait to see your cope on this since your ego is too fragile to admit that you are too brain fried to read a fucking post.

I can certainly tell you arent ADHD since you think ADHDfags are akin to the "omg squirrel xD" shit that kids tried to LARP as in the 00s. ADHD doesnt mean that you cant focus at all retard, it means you have trouble focusing on shit you dont give a fuck about, more so than the average person. If it takes you 5 mental energy to concentrate on [thing you dont care about], then it takes 10 points for me. And on the flip side, ADHDfags tend to heavily hyperfocus on shit that they do enjoy. It is not hard for me to focus on things for 12+ hours if I enjoy it or its something that is extremely urgent and cant be put off. I very often get so engrossed in things that Ill end up skipping meals and not notice until much later when Im wondering why I seem to have a bit of brain fog, only to realize I havent eaten anything in 14 hours. Its referred to as "diet autism" for a reason.

people on 4chan generally don't think of themselves as moral paragons. the most common philosophy here is that, if you use this site regularly, you have *something* wrong with you. when this site goes out of its way to fuck with people they generally don't think it's because they're in the right (excepting occasions regarding child or animal abuse in the past) but because it's funny.

outside of 4chan, so many sites like tumblr back in the day or bsky or reddit now are filled with people who are convinced theyre good people, and therefore anything they do must be justifiable. a lot of those people *are* smart, but smart people are dumb in the sense it's much easier to convince yourself you're doing something good when you and everyone around you says so. anyone outside those bubbles are horrified by the kind of shit redditors and blueskyers say, while they scream they're the only normal and moral people on the internet. thats ironically much more dangerous than someone who admits he fucks with people online for fun.

tldr; 4chan does it for the lulz, other communities typically do it because they feel theyre right to do so.

They'll always justify the games they like. After all, they like it and they're the good guys therefore the game can't be a bad influence. Games being a bad influence only works for games they don't like.
Might as well get rid of all Pokemon games for the dogfighting, just about anything Rockstar ever did, Mario as a hurtful stereotype against italians, like Apu's "Thank you, come again" but "it's a-me!" to mock italians or anyone named Mario, Doom because the Columbine kids played it, any superhero game for promoting vigilantism, Harry Potter games because the author takes issue with transexuals, Jet Set Radio and any other game with graffiti as a mechanic plus skating games for defacing public property, war games for promoting war crimes, Monkey Island because Orson Scott Card wrote the insults for the sword fights and he doesn't like gays, anything Star Wars because Disney owns it now, anything LotR because Amazon owns it now, we can do this all day. It's easier to think of games where you couldn't argue it's problematic to someone.
I'm surprised Clover was allowed on the website in the first place but this shit has snowballed so quickly that I doubt even Scott knows where the fuck this shit will end. He showed he's willing to compromise on his morals, now it's a matter of seeing how far that goes.

On the other hand, the name susan comes from the very same event. The donations reader was a finnish woman with a thick accent that could not pronounce the word succicnt and pronounce it like susan, and this made him incredibly mad

A millennial born in 1996 would be 9 when Xbox 360 launched with achievements, and 12 when PS3 added achievements to its games.
However, the oldest millennials would've been 24 when achievements were introduced for Xbox 360, and 27 when PS3 added trophies.
Meanwhile with zoomers,

>1998 (7 & 10)
>1999 (6 & 9)
>2000 (5 & 8)

The launch dates pretty cleanly hit those formative years, and most kids until the end of 2000s were being raised up on consoles.

You still didn't beat the game though because you emulated and you undoubtedly still used saved states.

Lol. You may have completed the game, but did you actually engage with it? No, you needed a checklist to keep your tiny brain occupied because the whole experience is more about impressing online strangers to you.

You didn't beat the game. You never will. You are incapable of experiencing what we all once did. You are permanently broken.

I don't think this is a zoomer thing, everytime I hear about Retroacheivements, these aren't "beat the game" achievements, these are "here's a bullshit challenge that you have to self-impose because no reasonable game dev would ever ask you to do this" that only appeals to people who've played a game dozens of times and desperately want to breathe more life into another playthrough.

Most of games zoomer grew up with were GTA Vice City and Age of Empires. These games can be played without bothering to win or finishing the task. If anything, zoomer grew up with anti achievement mentality which is why Among Us, Fortnite, Call of Duty, etc are so popular to them. The thrill of the journey is more important than what at the end.

Anon, that's a millennial mentality, it was the generation that experienced an era of gaming without achievements so they aren't particularly attached to them. In fact a lot of people openly disliked them back in the day because they weren't really achievements in the sense you did something worth earning something but rather a checklist for story progression.

Also it's funny you would mention fortnite since the idea of a battle pass comes from that achievement system.

Are you an idiot? Gen Z spans from 97 to 2012, that's a span of 15 years.
Now those games released in the first 6 years of gen z, that means there's 14 more years worth of zoomer births to account for. On top of that they aren't going to be playing games from the day they were born so AOE clearly isn't going to be a zoomer game, that's for Millenials who were actually old enough to play games.

Do you see how this works now? The majority of zoomers played and we're attached to games that came out in 2006 and beyond that had copious amounts of achievements that no Millenials cared for.

I reckon the only reason you're getting so defensive about this is because you're a zoomer

I would feel bad for him as well, but with everything he did, he genuinely deserves worse.

>On top of that they aren't going to be playing games from the day they were born so AOE clearly isn't going to be a zoomer game
Are you fucking retarded? So if a game exist before your birth makes it inaccessible to you when get abit older? Millennials are fucking retarded holyshit.

Fucking hell anon, no one said that but its incredibly unlikely that a zoomer is going to go back to a game they consider old and archaic.

Terrorists IRL can be arrested by law enforcement and given lengthy prison sentences.

If you have a terrorist like xkeeper online doing this sort of shit to a rather niche hobby then you can't do anything. That's a terrifying thought.

What do you even fucking do to online terrorists like xkeeper? You can't do anything. They're invincible.

You don't kowtow to them.
Eventually they'll keep on upping the threats until they do something serious that they can get arrested for.

>Just hope the problem goes away
>Just ask them nicely to leave
None of these narcissistic faggots obfuscate their online presence and OSINT tools are freely available to anyone for any purpose they desire.
This isn't a call to action; this is a reminder about the objective state of the internet.

Both GTA and AOE1 were not old back then and i lived in that time period. Zoomers played the shit out of those. How old are you?

boy am I glad I'm not the one holding this opinion right now

Good, when can I expect the whodunnit to be solved? Any timeframe on Scott getting the boot? When does the Clover page come back? I'm all ears.

Millennials played the shit out of Warcraft. Shut the fuck up.

Anon, if you're a zoomer, and let's say you're the oldest zoomer, then AOE was definitely going to be old for you by the time you reached the age to play games.
Also you still haven't taken into account that older zoomers don't make up the majority.
>Zoomers played the shit out of those.
Yeah, no it's Millenials who played them at most they would see their older brothers and sisters playing and get given the unplugged controller.
By the by, you know this would mean that you consider Pong a millennial game, right?
>How old are you?
Obviously older than you are.

NTA but warcraft didn't get achievements until way later in 2008 with WoTLK specifically to attract the zoomer audience.

Isn't that the same year PlayStation added it? I know that the ps3 didn't launch with them.

The fuck you are yapping? The game is literally point and click. Yeah it is difficult to win the game for a 8 years old but kids don't have obsession with winning something. Most of kids play games for the sake of it, they don't care about story or what progression they have. As children, no zoomies knew Vice City even had a story or is a story driven game, they just ran around, killed some NPC until the police inevitably beat their asses.
It was millennials who cared for the story, achievement and progression. They grew up with Halo, ARPG games and Warcraft. Especially Warcraft, the millennials are still praising Wrath of the Lich King as best Warcraft had ever been and that shit had achievement.
