Does anyone else come to /v/ because they see other anons as friends and believe that /v/ has taste?
I don't see them as friends but I always get good recommendations on /v/
>>724184272No and no. Most of you are borderline schizophrenic.
>>724184272I used to see it that way years ago but now I only come here to yell at people in bait threads (they're all bait threads)
>>724184272i'm really sorry that you think that.
>>724184272No. I just trust your taste more than the big gaming press. You can't fake love for a game.
I've gotten really good at baiting people
>>724184272I see anons as my friends but i don't believe for a second that they have taste.
No, because the majority of the zoomer retards here hate the games I like. I'm only here because I have no where else to go and have been coming here almost 20 years now, more years than the average age of a poster is now probably.
>>724184272Fuck no, this board is full of mongs and brownies
>>724184272>picWhat game makes you like that?
>>724184272while /mu/ is a dead board filled with pop spammers it's still better than this contrarian schizo softcore porn board. You cunts don't like anything all the while ODing on levels of irony that I thought wasn't possible
>>724184272It had taste a decade ago. Nowadays it's full of people slurping all over Call of Duty, Dark Souls 2, Fallout 3, etc. Shit that wouldn't have passed ten years ago. Basically /v/ is full of redditards with weekly threads about Call of Duty or whatever the redditards are trying to hype up.But despite this, when you can have a cogent discussion with someone not from reddit, it's somewhat pleasing. There are intelligent people on this board, they just don't show themselves much
>>724186170Eh, i think some of those games can be fun and i’m a late 2000s 4chan fag but yeah, you don’t get as much discussion about niche stuff. What really appalls me is the rampant gacha and gaas discussion
>>724186170Imagine liking all souls but ds2. Peak midwit.
>>724184272No and fuck no. Friends is a bit much but I feel like the anons that made me laugh and who were actually worth talking to got supplanted long ago by a bunch of faggots that barely like video games and have a tenuous grasp on the English language. It's harrowing that there's still somehow nowhere better to go even as awful as this place has gotten.
>>724186170Those you want to converse with might start posting 24/7 for a year and you still won't notice much of a difference. The demographics of the Internet have changed too much.
>>724184272This website sucks, but everywhere else sucks more.Alas.
it's been 30 years - Is till yet to find a "truly great videogame"
>>724187480Lots of better forums elsewhere. They're just dead.
>>724186038lethal levels of projection
>>724187480One day the site will be nuked for good, it already happened once. Perchance.
>>724186170Yep. You have people nostalgic for abominations like Gaylo and Far Cry 2, with not nearly enough anons calling them out for their shit taste.
>>724188975Far cry 2 is im simmy tho
I just come for the occasional good off topic threads.
>>724184272Videogames and 4chan is my entire social life, and I barely communicate in games anymore. All my life is me being left behind and alone by everyone, regardless being active or passive about it. Might as well stay online until they pull the plug and we meet in the trenches.
>>724193358If it makes you feel better most people barely have a social life anymore
>>724184272No because I am not mentally ill
>>724184272No. The only use this site has left is testing spam bots.
>>724184272>believe that /v/ has taste
>>724184272Not at all. I saw onirism shilled for so long that I decided to give it a try after it got out of early access, thinking it might be ok. It was clearly rushed and buggy as shit. This was a game that was shilled here for a stupidly long time. Never trust /v/
>>724195445wtf how they make him do that?>>724194895i know but makes no difference, I don't mind the company of people with whom I just click and can talk effortlessly, but sooner or later we inevitably part ways. Normalfags seem to hold it together so well, but maybe I seem a normalfag to others. We don't talk so they just assume I have friends and a life, without proof. Strange how connections and internet caused the exact opposite to society of what we thought it would. Never have been our minds bombarded with so much trash info daily, a medieval peasant knew the village and the king then that's it. They didn't even know America or Australia existed, and certainly they lost no sleep over what happened yesterday in the Far East or North Africa. Feels like human minds and brains are just not suited for the modern life, we manage but these changes are so fast compared to thousands of years of slowness.
>>724193358I'm kinda just waiting for it too. Maybe I'm hoping for it.
i come here to jack off
>>724184272There is a contingent of super spergs who hide in indie game threads and I search this board hoping to find them and their insights. The typical /v/ poster is a retard
>>724184272Sometimes people here talk about indie games with meOther then that they are retards and goonersI think the portion of /v/ that actually plays games has pretty good taste and would make adequate friends
>>724184272>see other anons as friendslol>believe that /v/ has taste?I feel the same way as >>724198153I did get to meet another /v/ user IRL that wasn't a sperglord but he moved cities and we didn't know each other for that long so it sort of died.
Everyone here understandably suffers from severe survivorship bias. The less time spent playing videogames the more to spend shitting up the board. I stay here because I don't know where else actual videogame appreciators are supposed to go
>>724184272No, that would be immensely foolish as half users here are bots and shills and the other half are assholes. There are no friends here anon, go touch grass and find a real friend
>>724184272>Does anyone else come to /v/ because they see other anons as friendsNo. I like this community but friends is a bit much.>and believe that /v/ has taste?Somewhat. /v/ is often retarded about hating or liking certain games but it's easy to tell when this is the case.
>>724184272I usually have more fun playing games with anons than any other demographic.It's been that way since I started browsing here in 2011.
>>724184272>and believe that /v/ has taste?It's not like you inherently get along with someone because they share the same taste or opinions. Even people who have played and enjoyed the sames games are prone to not get along just as much, if not more over people who don't
>>724198153>I think the portion of /v/ that actually plays games has pretty good taste and would make adequate friendsUnironically, the people who make and join /v/ lobbies to play games together are 99% great people
>>724184272>come to /v/ because they see other anons as friends and believe that /v/ has taste?Is it 2009? Did my time machine to 2009 work?
I wish I could forget NieR and NieR:Automata so I could go back and experience them again for the first time.
>>724204021I wish I could forget Nier Automata so I could pretend it's a good game
>>724184272I do it mostly because i do not know how to behave outside of here.I've internalized calling someone a nigger or a fag whenever they disagree with me or i think they are wrong that me having to restrain is annoying to the point i no longer feel like posting outside here.Truly, you are here forever.Also sometimes you do find cool things here that you can't find anywhere else.And yes, i do love u all anons, specially those i call niggers, fags, or those i tell them to kill themselves.
>>724204021This but Astlibra.The month that took me to beat it was one of the most joyful times i've had in a long while.
>>724204070
>>724204287gave me the motivation to cut my return to this shithole short, thanks maladjusted anon
>>724184272No I hate all of you
>>724184272/v/ is the best place to talk about vidya. People are honest when they are anons and there is no username in front of an opinion.Also, pic related, play Look Outside, I loved it.
>>724204510You'll come back eventually, anon.And i'll be here waiting you.
>>724184272/v/ is a mixed bag of opinions and tastes and I don't really see you faggots as my friends, I come here to fight in the great shitpost colosseum, on magnificent shitpost battles against other shitposters, we might destroy and derail threads in our fierce shitpost encounters.
>>724184272no, i am a complete normie. Only time I felt like your pic was when I played mass effect 2 and witcher 3 when i was much younger and ff7 rebirth more recently ( and unironically )
>>724184272I just come here to shoot the shit with other gamers. you get all types.
