When exactly did video game journalism become a meme?
Day one
>>726407275always was
>>726407341this. someone post that article from the 90s that shows how corrupt it already was back then
has it ever not been? video games might be enjoyed but never respected. for the most part they're just digital opium, designed to be addictive.
>>726407275You're too young to remember but game reviewers used to be absolutely corrupt pieces of shitE3 was basically a hookers and blow type operation to bribe corporate buyers to sell the game retailWhen the internet really got started people started doing joke reviews but the memes were there since at least the magazine era
>>726407275when wasn't he a memekek
>>726407341fippy to the bippy
>>726407275When it got infested by ants.
>>726407275kinda always was, but it was a harmless meme that was more positive back then and was really used to market games. Give or Take.When it became a bad meme? Kane and Lynch 2 and everything that came after that really. Already had lots of stupid egregious shit like 3.0 for Godhand before, but K&L2 shenanigans exposed the bullshit vidya journalism had become, and it only got worse from there.8.8 was based though
>no videos in monthsDid he died?
Why doesn't anyone from 4chan become a games journalist? Or a game reviewer? I think there'd be a market for 4chan reviews
>>726407275I still refuse to believe he became a tranny for real. I still think it’s a joke and he’s just playing the long con.
>>726407275ok i have no issue with troon out, but can you at least get in shape first?he went from a featureless blob into a featureless blog with a wig
>>726407275>journalism
>>726407275Is that Jim Sterling? lmfao
>>726408161fat blobs often pass better as fat women desu
>>726408161>>726408160i realized i dont hate trannies, i hate fat people, just happen most american trannies feed only on burger king
>>726407275Who is this beautiful bbw?
>>726408245Yes, and want to hear the funniest shit. He didnt even change his name so he could keep his marketing
>>726407275When people stopped reviewing shit on places like fucking wattpad
>>726407275Became a meme around the time of the Jeff Gerstmann firing. It got fixed again around 2020.
>>726407275>When exactly did video game journalism become a meme?Since the day one, If anything, video game journalism appears to be more professional than ever these days, Nintendo Bonus aside.

>>726407275Je looks decent in that photo somehow which is all you really need on the internet
>>726407275Queen of /v/
>>726407275Is he finally dying (literally)?
>>726407275
Always were, They were an Olympic committee style operation from the start. Only difference is, they're not getting gifted sports cars and vacation homes on tropical islands, but all paid trips, and early access to products.
>>726407275It was always corrupt but their collective ME3 meltdown was alarming.
>>726407275>hates vidya reviewing but won't quit>needs a wheelchair because he's fat and wrestling
>>726408383What fucking timeline is this
>>726407275Bulge pics?
>>726407275I never bought vampire survivors because of him writing for them and I'm glad I didn't, not even a pirate
>>726408767I hate assmongoloid so much, I wanna kick his teeth in. I genuinely don't understand why he's got such a large audience when all he does is scroll twitter all day and watch other people's content while giving the least valuable cookie cutter input imaginable. He's a genuine satanic scourge.
>>726407275Game magazines back in the day were held up by funding usually by major publishers thus had to play a fine rope of not giving them terrible reviews. The founder of EA and eventual CEO of 3DO once threatened Gamepro with destroying their brand due to a bad review in 2000 once.
>>726408025site's too brown for that now
>>726408957He likes Nick Fuentes now so he's cool
>>726408268>>726408280Frequenting an American fast food joint is already HRT.
>>726407275jim actually looks really good ever since he transitioned, as guy he was kinda slob, but atleast female jim looks slim.
>>726407275It's always been favortism and nepotism, but gamergate broke them and this ai shit has ruined all online shit
>>726408661To be fair; this wasn't the same reviewer. Most reviewers only go through a handful of games each yeah so it hires/contracts a lot of writers. Best way to compare this is to look at both of those individuals reviewers history instead. Nevertheless it odes smear IGN's reputation.
>>726408957same as junior peanut butterjust a normal ass guy with relatively normal ass takes find me someone else that lives like a disgusting fucking slob because he feels like it and also has minor (or better) celebrity status
>>726408781I still remember that fag Moriarty starting the gamers are entitled narrative when he defended the shit ME3 ending.
>>726407275i miss his squirty plays, brosit was my office that i'd put on for background noise while doing chores.
>>726407406Most Japanese game reviews from the 90's were>Oh those wacky ching-chongs! They must be suffering radiation poisoning to make a game this weird!
>>726407275Good lord
>>726408025Because no one genuinely wants to get into that rat race. At most you'll have someone with a special interest that earnestly just wants to talk about their obsession and its contemporaries where its clear that they have a niche and hide their power level, or you have some internet eceleb like sseth that appeals to memelords by regurgitating other peoples jokes and scripts so he can signal boost something niche but popular enough and doesn't hide his power level in the slightest but enough to not get axed off youtube or patreon.Turning your hobby into work is one of the worst decisions you could make anyway.
>>726408245Yes, and that's not him doing a drag bit. He full trooned out years ago.Fatsos always end up looking the same male or female so at least he has that going for him.
>>726408790The fucked up one, not even the regular bad one, just fucked up sideways.
It always was.
>>726408383>>726409703Hes also crippled and homeless
>>726409703Hot
I think most of us realised as children that we were being bullshitted by the gaming press. The worst examples in my youth were the official brand publications, Playstation Official Magazine and its ilk. You were just buying a wad of adverts. They'd tell you every game on the console was worth your money, unless it was a game so notoriously awful that to praise it would occasion a total loss of credibility and alert even the most gullible readers to the scam. For that game, they might go as low as a 4/10. The reason to buy such mags was that they had the demo discs, and playable demos were arguably more helpful to game customers than reviews.
you can either go thin and young transition or you can go boomer transitionlosing 100 lbs and reversing 10 years of sex-driven aging is impossible with known technology but yeah you can look like a convincing fat old woman with only four years of intense constant medication and become sterile. If you're convincing and therefore not a menace then you get a pass in society. Nvermind what dr chud says about chromosomes when he's never touched a microscope or a woman in his lifeimage for videogames
>>726407275Why don't he lose some weight
He looks so bad as a tranny part of me still thinks its a joke that went too far and now he's kinda stuck in the character and cant back out.
>>726409703>Yes, and that's not him doing a drag bit.that was also the weirdest thing, cause he kept saying it was drag and he wasnt trans for years and years and then suddenly poof
peak corruption was 2013-2014 right before GG, seeing everyone gush over the turd that was bioshock infinite was the end
>>726407275she's cute what's her name?
>>726410273Jesus fucking Christ.
>>726407275it's genuinely his fault more than anyone else's. he ran a pro games journalism mailing list where he nepo supported other journos in exchange for shilling his narrative. that's things as stupid as DmC being a flawless masterpiece that was only getting flak for donte's hair, up to The Words that janny will ban me for saying.
Youtube was never a source for journalism. Everything there is repackaged second hand reporting with a side of injected opinions and spectacle reactions.
>>726407275If someone isn't trying to stop you from publishing a story you're not doing journalism, you're doing PR.
>>726407275Was always a meme.It just went from being a funny 'haha reviewer point fake gun at game cartridge' meme to 'mainstream reviewers are all openly in bed with corpos and gamers are dead' meme
>>726410173it's so fucked up that your entire sucess of your trans life depends on if you can get the drugs before 18 or not.
>>726408957He's one of the few that isn't a disgustingly retarded leftoid, there arwn't many like him out there. Instead he's a retarded rightoid.
>>726410727you can always reject the hand that life deals you
>>726407275It always was, but the mask fell during 2014.
>jizz sterling
>>726410273I legit thought it was a joke, but when it turned out it wasnt I actually felt kindof sad. Like, how do you see yourself homie. He ebodied the meme of what a tranny is>obsessed with politcs but is a woefully unserious person, which drags the severity of anything they talk about into the gutter>their room is like that of a child, not a teenager even, but a child, with toys everywhere and their diction is reference to shows from their youth>their portrayal of a female is to dress as gaudy as possible and slather on makeup so thick it looks like a blow up doll at best, or Ozzy Osbourne in womens clothes playing a joke Like, I feel bad, I dont hate him, hes pathetic.
>>726410791he's more like a dog, where he can be trained and retrained endlessly depending on who's giving him treats
>>726407275Is trannyism as popular as it seems online, or is it just some very loud and vocal motherfuckers who don't ever leave their houses?
>>726410273It's not a bit. Even before Jim trooned out he bragged about being nonbinary and pansexual. He seriously believes this bullshit that gender is a spectrum defined by feelings.
>>726410985What you describe sounds like a pedophile to me
>>726411042About 1% of the American population is transgender. But no matter what topic you search social media for, you'll be bombarded by trans flags. That makes it look more common than it is.
>>726408025>I think there'd be a market for 4chan reviewsEhy guys I was just playing the game and I thought it's pretty fun to play bec->SHILL! SHILL! SHILL! SHILL!>goes back to bite the same bait about porn/AAA game selling 3 million/latest controversy
>>726410727purposefully malforming your body by blocking puberty just makes you a freak not a woman
>>726407586I feel like I need to say this every time he is brought up, but he took over hosting the Destructoid podcast for a while about 15 years ago and was genuinely very funny, creative, witty and fun to listen to. Genuinely one of the funniest series of anything I've ever listened to at it's peak. No cringe politics at all. Whenever I see nu-Jim I just have an overwhelming sense of wasted potential.
>>726410867theres nothing after this>>726411406it increase your chances of passing which should be the goal of everyone.
I remember reading EGM (a gaming magazine, from the dark times before the internet) and their header writer/editor wrote an open letter to the readers stating they weren't going to be pushed around by game devs and publishers any more who were threatening to pull advertising money if they were actually honest with review scores, they were going to fight, truth to power!And then they went bankrupt.
>>726408025that was matthewmatosis
>>726408957he is right wing gamer stand in with milk toast takes and centrism something like critikal while hassan is left wing one, working for the same agency btw.
>>726411183The difference is that he now crowbars trans grievances into his videos whenever trans topics intersect with videogames – which happens quite often if you're like Jim and you're constantly trawling the internet for things to be offended by. Add to this the new trans aesthetic of the channel itself, with pink borders and sparkles strewn across the videos, and, more disturbingly, the frequent use of female cartoon characters as Jim's trans avatars, and the changes to his content are substantial.When Jim first came out, he said, "I was trans before I came out, so nothing has changed." But that's not true. His trans identity is a big part of his output now.
>>726407275It was a fun meme until 5GuysGate
>>726411505He was always a provocateur for attention, so it makes sense that he trooned out I suppose.
>>726411275Well yea, its a crossover, usually its the case because they know they cant connect with normal adults, or at least their peers, so they try to connect with people like them, they know a grown man/woman would laugh at them so they gravitate to people that wouldnt do that and they can empathize with eachother over shared interested. So children, or other degenerates/fucked up mental cases.Its why troons always end up with other troons, and keep getting outed as pedos.
>>726411607He's your typical "right wing" Bernie Sanders socialist.
>>726411406Talking with experience I suppose? You can be a woman in my mind if you'd like.
>>726411042they spend almost their entire lives on the internet.generally, it's terminally online people who are most susceptible to being groomed in the first place.
>>726407732Thanks, Doc.
>>726410727Yeah but you get to live with the tons of health complications for longer. Just look at jazz jennings, the posterchild of early transitioning who is suicidal due to all the health complications from hormones and botched surgeries.
>>726411607How subhuman do you have to be to watch this shit? It's the ultimate form of slop. Some retard showing you random garbage on the internet and occasionally mumbling over it for hours on end, what the fuck is the appeal?
>>726409631>Turning your hobby into work is one of the worst decisions you could make anyway.This is pure, distilled, polished truth. All the times you just weren't in the mood to play a game or talk about it, you'd have been forced to do so because you have a paycheck to earn. And once you start doing that - you start building resentment towards an activity you're no longer allowed to engage in on your own terms.
>>726409825I missed that bit, when, how?>>726410308It's sort of been a staple comedy, especially brit one, in the olden times before we knew and I had a feeling he was the sort of guy to do a drag gag, but I sort of forgot whether he has actually done it or not.
>>726408957What's poppin' Hasan?
>>726407275It always was, even during the 80s and 90s.It was always propaganda for studios and publishers.
>>726412218They work for the same company.
>>726408025the whole point of 4chan is to be anonymous
>>726412148A lot of games already feel like work. I just finished doing the notoriously time-consuming treasure hunt at the end of Metroid Prime. Since none of it was what I'd call fun, I can only explain my motivation to complete the task as a deranged sense of duty to some imaginary employer.
>>726408767>>726408957>>726409220>>726411607I'm not a fan of asmongold and his centrist milquetoast personality or gay fanbase but damn he triggers the trannies like no one else on this site lol.
>>726412267>t. fence sitter
>>726410985>their
>>726410727your entire success of being a tranny depends on if you're surrounded by mentally deficient retards that pander to your infantile emotions and beliefs or not, but no matter how much your fellow retards pat you on the back, you will still never be a woman
>>726412380>NOO YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE EITHER ISRAEL OR PALESTINEget bombed shitskin
>>726412380They are employed by the same exact people you fucking retard
>>726408238truly dead inside
>>726412403>depends on if you're surrounded by mentally deficient retards that pander to your infantile emotions and beliefs or notthen why are you on 4chan, anon?
>>726411550you should accept reality instead of getting a dozen surgeries to maybe pass at a distance
>>726411965>generally, it's terminally online people who are most susceptible to being groomed in the first place.It's mostly autistic teenagers who have no friends to hang out with and are constantly bullied IRL for being themselves. They find a community of acceptance on trans Discords and subreddits.
>>726410273What exactly happened to Jim anyway? I haven’t watched him in years, and he just seemed to be like the typical “edgy tryhard game reviewer who likes to shit on everything” that was popular in the late 2000s-early 2010s— sort of like Razorfist, but slightly tamer.I knew he was always left leaning, but what happened to him that made him go down this path? He always seemed very secure in his masculinity.
>>726412521Well I came here in 2005 after 8 year old me by some odd chance happened to find the site, but now that it's overrun with redditards and shit-eating faggots I just come here to give dumbass negroids like you a reality check once in a while
>>726411318it's the increase from 0.03% to 1% that makes people suspicious then they see the teachers coming out of universities trying to tranmaxx kids and totally miss the cuck porn aspect that's actually very explanatory
>>726407275is he still alive? Last time I heard of him was him giving Breath of the Wild a low scare
>>726411550>>726410727You can never pass, you can't beat time or biology. Pic related is a friend of Jazz Jennings who started HRT well before puberty. Yeah he looked cute on the show when he was 16. Only two years after he literally got monkey pawed. Just look at those mitts. Try looking him up now if you want to see a real horror show.
>>726412474>>726412480How about you niggers grow a pair and stand for something you truly believe in? This is the reason why all of you are losing the culture wars when you let the left do what they want to do. Neutral bystanders piss me the most because they are part of the problem through inaction.
>>726410273I knew it was real because way before that he posted himself with cum on his faceFrom what i assume was his bull after fucking his wifeHe posted it on twitter
>>726407275Around the time all mainstream journalism became a meme. When we all started realizing that corporate media is fake and only exists to spread propaganda and attempt to control culture while enriching useful idiots.
>>726412794There is no "two sides" you stupid nigger, they get paid by the same fucking company. Is this a bot? How do you not understand what im saying?
>>726407341i remember reading game reviews in magazines as a kid and thinking "what the hell does an adult journalist know about video games"
>>726412794>>726412794>stand for something you truly believe in?I believe that all of these "influencers" and streamers that low-IQ negroids follow and listen to should all be taken out back and given a 9mm lobotomy>muh left muh rightI don't give a fuck about your archaic judaistic worldviews, retard
>>726408025>Or a game reviewer? I think there'd be a market for 4chan reviewsIsnt that what Sseth is?
>>726412382Yes, I wasnt refering to just Jim anon. Its a behaviour pattern not unique to him, but all trannies. "Their" is the term of association with other people not specifically an individual.How posioned is language now that people think your using tranny verbage when you use a word correctly. Reminder that THEY coopted this shit, THEY are using it wrong.
>>726408025As much as games journalism sucks, it definitely beats the average /v/ retard repeating the word toon 15 times and getting triggered over a video game having a black person in it or child characters not sexy enough.
>>726410273damn my man Jimbo here looking rough, all the best to him
>>726412610they are mostly autistic loners, yeah. it's sad that they get groomed online instead of getting mental health support.
>>726407341This. Video game "journalism" was only birthed because the video game industry needed a way to sell their games to the market with a level of legitimacy and authority that was respectable to audiences. And ever since video game "journalism" became filled with people who failed to get into real journalism, buried in mountains of student debt and wasted potential, they've wanted to try and make it something more admirable.
>>726408957Did you also made this thread?>>>/wsg/6021529
>>726412610As someone who was a heavily bullied and socially awkward guy with some effeminate interests as a teen, I’m so glad I went through that high school bullying phase in the early 2010s rather than the late 2010s onwards. They probably would have tried to groom me if such a community existed back then. People who are bullied need to learn that the best way to stand up to bullies is to not give a shit about what they think, and to be true to yourself rather than seeking approval from outside sources. Bullies pray in insecurities, so by not being insecure, you give them no ammunition to work with.
And to think all of this is because of what they DID to Zhang He. Seriously, Koei is pure evil.
>>726412164>when and howProbably referencing the patreon post months ago where Jim was bitching about not being able to afford $2000 a month apartment, and his back being blown and and using a wheelchair.
>>726412954No anon, you were writing from the perspective of a singular male tranny, so 'his' is completely correct.
>>726410273he's got the same eternally lifeless face as chris chan
>>726413093Mental health support is a fucking joke in most of the world. They either tell you to talk to a therapist who will pretend to care about your problems while charging hundreds of dollars a session. Or throw pills at you to trick you into not caring about your problems. I was showing clear signs of bipolar and autism at 13. They put me on Xanax and Prozac without ever even thinking to address the root cause of my depression. I hate Big Pharma so goddamn much it's unreal.
>>726407275Once upon a time this guy was entertaining.
>>726412686Yeah, I remember him as the guy with some hot takes and warring against trashy asset flips in steam I watched in between zero punctuations on the escapist.The downfall started with gamergate I think. At the time he was already buddying up to the indie cliques for cameos and shit which was sort of a conflict of interest but it wasn't that obvious dealbreaker.When the whole california-jurnalist-indiedev-awardshow group declared war on their audience Jim joined their side. Later on radicalisation continued with trump derangement syndrome.GG was the event when a lot of the gaming adjacent internet personalities went off the deep end.
>>726412794I don't like people from the middle east That's it That's my stand
>>7264080254chan has no unified taste, vision or ideology.
>>726407275he dead yet?
>>726412378Centrist is how you want to be if you want to be balanced. Like all good things should be.
>>726407275Pretty sure GG was the first time that ethics in gaming journalist was ever really scrutinized. For me personally, it was seeing the absolute turd of Dragon Age 2 get 8s and 9s when it was so much worse than Origins. 15 year old me could not understand the huge disconnect between what I was playing and what journos were praising.
>>726409825This guy is the living proof that troonery is a mental illness born from being abused as a child. He confirmed this btw.
>>726413073This is why we need /v/ reviewers, so I know which games with unsexy cunny or joggers to avoid.
>>726413867I'll believe transgenderism is natural when I see a tranny who wasn't abused as a child and didn't consume hundreds of hours of internet porn.
>>726413507GG and that whole escapade was the death of so many once reasonable left-wing voices in the scene. They had to bend the knee to the radicals because they were terrified of being accused of racism, sexism or homophobia. It was sad to see them swallow the kool-aid like that. Trump definitely made it worse too. The left grew radicalised in the run-up to his election, and then was irreparably mind broken when he won.
>>726412686>I knew he was always left leaning, but what happened to him that made him go down this path? He always seemed very secure in his masculinity.Every week Jim was doing (and probably still is) a podcast with Laura Kate Dale, a tranny.The one with the infamous twitter meme pic "I have a vagina"Like a Wormtongue, constantly whispering into your ear, Jim got corrupted and fell for the meme.
>>726413459i hate them too but i would rather a kid speak to a therapist than discord call Lilith69
>>726407341>t. wasn't there on day one
>>726408957Grummz won bigly
>>726413459trannies would be irrelevant if not for big pharma being desperate to get their money
>>726412787What's her name
>>726408957That's what most twitch retards are, just parasites that leech off the work of other people and get insanely rich for itThe only people I hate more than streamers are the losers that watch them
>>726414970Charlie something.
>>726414082I wasn't abused as a child and I don't like porn
>>726414963>their moneyShit's fucking covered by insurance, it's it's actually YOUR money they're squandering before they off themselves.
>>726415109How autistic are you though
I also love e-celebs I'm watching Dola nowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5P8RHbbFk4
>>726415329I'm not autistic either, look you can think whatever you want about dysphoria, but it is real and it destroys lives, the problem is that some are either fetishists or victims of them and end up exposing themselves on the worst way possible which gives bad optics, but both homosexuality and dysphoria are natural.
>>726408238>Vinesauce and some guyWhat am I missing?
Not sure, but Gaymore Gate is when we crossed the Rubicon.
trannyh
>I'm not like you, I was...>Born cleverPls stop with the eceleb threads.
>>726407341Yep, even on the physical magazines back then the reviews were shit. When they happened to include a decent walk through or tips, it was stolen from somewhere else like gamefaqs or the official guide without them actually playing the games.
>>726408161Why would a guy that's in shape and has self esteem and discipline troon out? The whole point is that it's easier to put on a wig than it is to make meaningful changes to your life through hard work and effort
>>7264080254chan as an audience will always eventually turn on the creator. You should never pander to us.
Suicide when
>>726408025people here can barely write 4chan posts, let alone a cohesive review. some retards here branch out into youtube, like PatricianTV but I think it's cringe that he is open about being a 4channel.org browser
>>726415823you are a stupid child if you think that
HISTORY OF VIDEO GAME JOURNALISM:>First era: literal advertisments, often directly from the corporations themselves>Second era: fans doing amateurish and bad reviews, mostly only of things they like>Third era: actual 2deep4u reviews of a wide variety of games, by professionals who dont even like games>Fourth era: literal advertisments, by the corpos bribing the above
>>726408025>Why doesn't anyone from 4chan become a games journalist?I have self-respect.
>>726407275I'm brown, sorry
>>726407275he should let his moustache grow out a touch more so he gets that cesar romero joker look
>>726412794>do you want to get kicked in the balls or fucked in the ass?>uhh neither>FUCKING FENCESITTER WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A SINGLE ORIGINAL THOUGHT REEEEEEEEEEEE
>>726408781I still remember websites mocking gamers for this shit, all the while huge banner ads surrounded every article on the sites for ME3
>>726410727Maybe because you shouldn't be doing that shit to begin with?
>>726411550>The goal of everyone Not everyone subscribes to your mental illness
>>726407275early 10s, at that point it was an open question of what the point of game journalism even is when you had twitch and youtube and could just see the game for yourself
>>726408025hey hey people
>>726412378Maybe that's the trick, have milquetoast opinions, basic bitch center-right takes then get as many shills to go apeshit over him wanting him dead.People notice, see how unhinged the left is and he gets more popular.
>>726412521Claiming that 4chan is an echo chamber in 2025 is a fucking joke. Name me one other website where you could peddle your troon shit while someone else tells you to choke on a rope and neither one gets banned for wrong think.I'll fucking wait
>>726412794>you must side with piece of shit A or piece of shit B>they're both wrong, I have no reason to make my beliefs conform to another's>NO, YOU HAVE TO PICK ONEwhy? what do I get out of it?
>>726407275Know what's funny?For years, I hated Jim Sterling for being a fat fuck shaped like a Meatball. I got so much flak for that.Fast forward some odd years later, he troons the fuck out and is one of the most embarrassing, humiliating, disgusting, and laughable examples of trooning out (but all troons are that and more).As a result, he lost much of his fanbase (which he never should've had in the first place), yet he still has fans retarded, delusional, dishonest, humiliating enough to stick around and pretend he's anything other than an embarrassment and failure to his ancestors.Basically, I was right about him, the whole time. Same goes for Booger2988lbs.

>>726407275Because you don't need any education, experience, knowledge or even a degree to do it.You can open up website tomorrow, get 10 views a month and get a press badge at E3 as a game journalist. The title of a journalist culturally had weight and meaning when the items listed above were the gatekept way to be one. Now some of the most mentally unstable people in the world are in that space.Do you really want someone who cuts their dick off and thinks they are a woman telling you how good the next Mario titlte is? That don't even know what color the sky is let alone how to play a video game.
>>726409424The one positive thing about reviews like that was it kept normalfags out.Xplay would be endlessly bashing a Japanese game and I'd just know it was going to be peak the moment I played it.

>>726410273He looks like an average british woman. Can't say if that's a good thing or not/
>>726419641Transpeople can't create, they can only indoctrenate. In private groups they know they have to grow their numbers via brianwashing the youth. It's a death sex cult
>>726419935The controls weren't a problem but the game is ass, I preordered that shit and I was so disappointed when I played it.
>>726419941Shut up weirdo. I can't even imagine what is on your hard drive that would put you in jail.
>>726412480Asmons editors really control the show.
>>726419641your godking was BFFs with an Israeli spy and lord of all pedophiles, and either sucked off Bill Clinton or a horse with photographic evidence of it existing in the hands of the Russian leader. you are all the same people who cape for lolicon too, and the only political spectrum in the states that engages in child marriage
>>726415621>you can think whatever you want about dysphoria, but it is real and it destroys livesPerhaps it is, but 99.9% of alleged gender dysphoria sufferers are not genuinely afflicted.Their condition is entirely performative, ideological, and worse, cultish in its propagation.The 'eggs' these transsexual communities seek to crack are literally just psychologically vulnerable and isolated individuals - in many chases children - which are otherwise completely healthy and sane.These groomers engage in lovebombing, ego teardowns, communal gaslighting, and countless other modes of emotional manipulation.They inculcate these 'eggs' with sheer lunacy, and encourage them to shed all other support networks to ensure they are the sole shapers of their victims sense of normalcy by removing all alternative perspectives.Slowly but surely they weave a warped narrative around their victim, programming them to attack anything that might save them, encoding self-destructive behaviors and ever reinforcing deeper shades of sexual perversion.>Tl;Dr: Modern transsexuality is by-and-large an evil, predatory cult. That is no exaggeration. For as much as they are hated, it isn't *nearly* enough.

>>726419475That was years ago, dude lost subs. He also gets at most around 100k views when it used to be common for him to get millions. Most of those subs are probably dead accounts.
>>726420384brother you're a 4chan poster who is obsessed with trannies, if you don't think you're a weirdo you're more disconnected from reality than any of the people you demonize
>>726420238Men for 100s of years paid for sex, raped for sex, lied for sex and fought for sex.You don't think some mentally weak incel is going to pretend to be a girl to maybe MAYBE get his non-dick wet? This is the tranny community, a bunch of deviants.
>>726420238gays in general are immoral and exploitive and ruin tons of young people’s lives, plus gays started the gender bullshit with their third gender crap, all the letter people are a problem, and don’t buy into any gay/trans distinction, they are totally aligned
>>726420483Not obsessed. I have children, I don't want them to be in contact with these people. They are weird.
>>726420483>thread about trannies>"erm why are you talking about trannies? obsessed much?"he's canadian too so he's probably aware of upcoming laws here where teachers won't be allowed to tell parents that their kids are trooning out. but it's totally not grooming btw
>>726420064>projecting again
>>726420706>why can't teachers be forced to report things that would result in their students being abused by their family members??!?!?you know for people who love pretending to care about children you sure do advocate for the abuse of them frequently
>>726420534>don’t buy into any gay/trans distinction, they are totally alignednah fuck thati've been a homo my whole life and i hate: trannies, lesbos, fags, women and litterers
>>726420238Not that many do that and blaming everyone for the mistakes of some? That's dumb, plenty of cis people rape and kill but you don't blame everyone else do you?
>>726411016Most people are like that.
>>726407275When Jim was on Yahtzee's podcast and said he was pregnant
>>726420889why assume their family members would abuse them? if a child is thinking about sex so much he wants a sex change, it's significantly more likely someone else is abusing the child, maybe a teacher.
>>726420889The parents have the right to know so they can prevent their kids from trooning out. Either they find out what teacher put the idea in their head or ban them from social media until they forget about it.
>>726421178>>726421212>why would children who remain in the closet from their parents not want their parents to know they are in the closetit'd take an army of you bozos to replace a lightbulb
>>726420581Why are you here if you care so much about that? Why do you obsess over a small percentage of the population?Do you seriously think doing this will keep them away from your kids?
>>726407275When it was discovered basically anybody with a personality and connections to earlier copies behind the scenes could do it.The only problem is modern day personality reviewers are dumber than most "professional" reviewers from the last two decades and are essentially trying to jump onto a bandwagon that most have no fucking clue of the culture or histories of the industry. They become massively self entitled, opinionated and obnoxious.Trust and form your own fucking opinion, don't sheep along to the rallying piper's call of some tasteless dishonest Streamer retard's take or some half baked outdated online magazine's beautifully typed out paid-for piece by anonymous nobody #472.
>>726421320children are stupid. they don't get to make decisions without their parents consent.taking that consent away from the parents is just giving it to their groomers. why do you want that?
>>726421320It’s not about what the children want. They are retarded and will destroy themselves if you let them. This tranny shit doesn’t exist without outside influence and encouragement. If they never heard about in a such a susceptible state they would have never considered it on their own and would just be normal kids.
>>726421353> Why do you care about sexual deviants corrupting children> There aren't that many sexual deviants, what are the odds they infect *your* children with their ruinous ideology?> Do you seriously think that by alerting everyone to our atrocities that you can stop us from fucking up your kids? :)>>726420238>Tl;Dr: Modern transsexuality is by-and-large an evil, predatory cult.Hits the nail on the head.Countless examples of it in this thread alone.
>>726421716I considered it on my own, I was never abused nor exposed to explicit sexual content as a kid.
>>726407275Video games, faggot, VIDEO GAMES!
>>726421353Always saying "Why do you care?"Because I care about my children. I know you don't care, you are a weirdo. But I care.
>>726421716>it's not about the childrenI could've told you that, it's about facilitating the abuse of children you deem "wrong" to make them """"normal"""">>726421639you guys don't care about actual groomers because if you did you wouldn't be so opposed sex ed materials in libraries, a tool that allows children to identify that they are the victims of sexual abuse, usually by family or friends of the family.
>>726421959>sexual deviants>said the 4channerHeh
>>726422090you care about "your children" until it turns out they're gay or trans and then you'll disown them because you don't see them as individuals but as a thing you can assert control over
>>726422112>actually porn NEEDS to be distributed to childrenyou're an actual pedophile. please turn yourself into the authorities.
>>726422090>things I never saidI said, why are you here talking about transpeople obsessively while your kids are out there unprotected?
>>726421976I don’t believe you. You saw it somewhere. Maybe you saw a drag queen or a tranny in a movie or something. At least the idea that you could “transition” had to be external. No one independently thinks “maybe I can pretend to be a girl” unless they know people already do that.
>>726422226>sexual education is porn>he gets turned on by static drawings of human anatomyAnd we are the "sex deviants"
>>726422112I didn’t say it’s not about the children. What’s good for the children is not the same as what they may want.
>>726422284Where? We had one tv when I was a kid and I was not allowed to use it as it was always on some random old classical movie, the rest of the time I spent it reading or listening to music.
>>726422195Being gay is real and they can’t help it. Being trans is not.
>>726422226>sex ed material is pornyep spotted the child diddler who wants to keep getting away with the diddling
>>726422502>feeling different is real but feeling different is not
>>726422317you're a pedophile.media wherein people have sex is porn. the books you're talking about are about a person's sexual pleasure. many of them included images of sex acts. you want these images of sex acts to be distributed to children. you are a pedophile.
>>726410727there are some late starter passable ones, but it's super rarethe hard truth is that all trannies, even the cute ones, have an expiration date, the femboy effect starts to fall off hard after 25t. chaser
>>726422483Again even if you wanted to be a girl there’s no way you thought about walking around and pretending you are one.
>>726422574Being gay is innate. Trans is taught.
>>726408245We're supposed to call him Jimotha or some shit now, I think
>>726422626>>726422727>no, you are wrong, you don't know what you feelGosh you are dumb
>>726407275because americans are obsessed with the person and the concept of celebrity. they couldn't simply read a review, recognise the name that wrote it and decide if they will like the game based on the opinions presented. every games journalist now has to be a character with an online presence and some kind of gay schtick. it's less about the game and more about the person. these people are constantly begging for attention and relevance, and americans eat the slop right up.
I love big girls
>>726420483>actually if you say this is weird it is you are who are the weirdo!
>>726422823You’re simply lying.
All the real stories were broken by random people. The CSGO lotto controversy was a real story. Revealed by a random YouTuber targeting 2 other YouTubers.GamerGate was random people and YouTubers.Jirard Khalil was exposed by that retard who lost to Billy Mitchell.Indie game coverage is done by independent YouTubers. The paid published journalists only talk about them when someone else gets them to gain traction. Then you have cockroaches like Jim Sterling who do nothing but gripe for 10 minutes a day. He's not a journalist, he doesn't investigate or reveal anything.They don't commit to journalism. They are paid to release shill "reviews" and attend press events.
>>726422604???
2007,Peggle won a game of the year award in pc gamer, the only logic I saw in the entire justification was "Casuals are gamers too"Absolutely not, and this was before phoneslop.It was at that moment I personally realized all "Gaming media" exists solely for the purpose of making money advertising products, anyone who doesn't get that, especially those gate retards, is a tool, a cuck with no opinions of their own.
>>726422912If you ever have kids I seriously hope they turn out perfectly normal, otherwise they will suffer their entire life having a father like you.
>>726422195they unironically see it as the "woke mind virus"
>>726420435He never actually hit a million.
>>726422823people would care a lot less if trannies admitted these were just their subjective feelings, it’s why tranny shit is so ridiculous, it’s something boring turned into something extremely harmful
>>726422195Kids ain't forced into being gay. But the trans thing is a very real grooming thing
>>726407275Is he still alive? Serious question.
>>726423150Isn't it funny that they said the exact same thing about homosexuality?
>>726423150gays do in fact groom all the fucking time and try to mess up kids with early porn exposure
>>726422883They always say this stuff when you start talking about them "WHY DO YOU CARE!?" "YOU ARE OBSESSED!?"It's to try to make you feel bad, it's their only weapon "guilt". Don't feel guilty. Destroy them, they don't move society forward, they are the final form of mental illness in the western world.
>>726412686He was child molested. he had no chance.
>>726410952>jizz gargling
>>726422883no fucking way this is real, jesus
>>726423145>subjective feelingsAs opposed to what? Of course this is how I feel, how I always felt, and many others feel the same.
>>726422978are you now identifying as someone who didn't support those trans groomer laws? your stated political views are - children NEED to see images of sex acts, and - parents should NOT be allowed to learn anything about what their children are doing, especially if it's related to sexyou're a groomer.
>>726423062They won’t be on trooncords or twitter and I’ll make sure they won’t have a libtard psycho teacher. They won’t even know about trooning in general until they’re old enough to laugh about it. At worst they might turn out gay but I don’t give a shit as long as they aren’t bug chaser tier degenerates.
>>726423424>american politicsAmerica is such a nice place but sometimes I am thankful I wasn't born there, the economy doesn't reflect in the level of education of the overall population, most people are extremely dumb.
>>726407275>video game journalismthey have their moments
>>726423484>I will keep them hidden away from the world Great plan
>>7264072752010. Why do you ask?
>>726423630Tranny discords aren’t the world freak.
>>726423253Identifying more with the opposite sex is something that occurs naturally. The philosophy that says you're an actual woman if you identify as one is artificial.Focusing on treating people well even if they're different without forcing definitions on people would go over smoother I think.
>>726422883Jesus fucking christ, I just finished lunch. I hate your soul for subjecting me to this.
>>726423734So it's all about a single word, since when language is so important?
>>726416206you seem to have this gay fantasy about attractive men being immune to mental illness. I dont think you really understand how little "being in shape" and "having self esteem" has to do with sexuality or identity.
>>726413201I always love when people get nostalgic for these old magazines in comparison to the internet age, but in reality when you reread these in archives, you realize how much utter dogshit games that Gamepro scored high in just because they were given a paycheck for advertising said game.
>>726423890If it's not important, then why does it need to be forced?
>>726420238All correct, these people are straight up evil.
>>726423731How will you make sure their friends don't talk to them about that stuff, why would you set them up for grooming? What if they meet someone like you, obsessed with transpeople?
>>726423890It's also not just the word itself, but the idea that they're the same as actual women so therefore should be able to compete with women in sports that are segregated by sex and things like that.
>>726422085>Look Mom I posted it again....the 100,000th time in the past 10 years!!!
>>726424013That’s why you vet their friends. Did your dogshit parents never do that for you? lol
>>726423938>>726424106And are you sure every single transperson supports that
>>726423848
>>726424152>I'm going to control their entire lifeI take it back, please don't have kids.
>>726424191Of course not all of them do. I don't hate trans people, anon. Most of my friends are trans and I'm disgusted with a lot of this thread. But I'm telling you why pushing trans rights the way it's being done now isn't working compared to gay rights. Because some of the things being pushed are objectively insane.
>>726424278This is normal shit parents have always done. Fucking retard.
>>726423417so we’re in agreement you’re not a woman, you subjectivity identity with womanhood, i won’t acknowledge it because your personal truths aren’t relevant to anyone else
>>726407275I don't really care for gaming magazines or whatever, but it is hilarious that #Gamers have allowed themselves to become retarded.Everyone here, not a single person on this board, gets their news from outside of these three sources>Youtube react/ragebait/grifter shit>Twitter posts>4chan posts regurgitating the aboveNot a single person here could "read" the news. Nobody here could envision a complex situation in anything, they NEED every single issue they hear about to be boiled down into "X good Y bad", and they pick their side based on who told them what to believe. This is part of why video games will never be art, because there can never be video game journalism. Video games are not a medium meriting critical analysis, intrigue, discussion, or thought, it's a medium of hypenoise and passing gazes. What is known today will be forgotten tomorrow, that kind of thing.
>>726424363I'm sorry you had terrible parents, no wonder you are here.
>>726424278Would you let your kid hang out with chuds that say nigger nigger nigger? Why are you so controlling?
>>726423890we should change this concept that’s older than humanity because of your feefees? what hope does a civilization have that can’t agree on penises and vaginas
>>726424510>hang outWhen "kids" can hang out it is already too late, or do you think they become sentient at 10 or what
>>726424593So history is relevant? Because there's a lot of historical evidence trans people have always existed and in some places revered
>>726424510>tfw hang out with black friends and they also say nigga all the fucking timenta but I would, all my white friends growing up were fake ass snake bitches compared to my current friends, I had a breakin and 3 of my boys pulled up guns ready in case we found the guy, that's friendship you can't buy.They my niggers.
>>726424679yeah they existed in germany before ww2 and then everyone voted for the nazis for some reason
>>726424393I don't really care about your opinion anon, call me whatever you want I won't even acknowledge your existence
>>726424595You asked about them trooning out because of their friends. I said you control who they can be friends with which you scoffed at. So would you be okay with Timmy bringing home nigger hating billy he met on the schoolground?
>>726424802>world war 2 and the Nazis were created to destroy trans people
>>726424679a lot of that (2 soul) seems to be liberal fan fiction, or confusion resulting from oral tradition
>>726424920>confusion>oral traditionsLook up Muxes
>>726424802Ignoring the whole trans thing for now>everyone voted for the nazis for some reasonNot really, the Nazi party never got a majority of the vote.
>>726424846I'd question them about why they chose such caricaturistic person as a close friend but I wouldn't prohibite them to talk to them, that would only bring more trouble, I'd also question myself for doing such a terrible job that not only they befriended someone so extreme, but that it is their only friend.
>>726424278Not their entire life, but yeah, parents do tend to 'vet' the friends of their kids.You wouldn't want your kid hanging out with a kid that's already a delinquent in say, the third grade, nor would you want them coming home in the middle of the night reeking of alcohol or cigarettes at 15. Back in the day, parented vetted their kids friends based on race.
>>726424345The problem here is perception, for some this is extreme, for others necessary, if it hadn't been demonized it wouldn't need such divisive actions to be normalized.
>>726407275When IGN said ''too much water''
>>726418208You had to be gay as fuck to have a twitter so I call bullshit
>>726425327>back in the dayAnd look how baby boomers turned out, or gen x, or millenials, depressed and hiding it, full of insecurities and fears.
>>726425207Then you’d be a shit parent. You need to put your foot down on some things because if you don’t no one else will. It doesn’t mean you’re a tyrant.
>>726424345>Most of my friends are transOh hey, MMO player!
>>726425526FFXIV baby lol
>>726425453>And look how baby boomers turned outrich, happy and successful?
>>726424345the arguments have been heard and humanity is not convinced, they can try their jewish psycho nihilism again next century
ITT:
>>726425514There's countless of media depicting that exact same scenario and yet you don't seem to understand that forcing someone to be like you want can only result in something awful.
>>726425346And it's having the opposite effect, because trying to triple down issues that the majority of people say "wait, what? that doesn't sound right" doesn't sway them to see your side. It makes them start questioning your mental faculties and other things that you believe in.
>>726425602Most people are convinced now of giving some leeway for gender expression outside the norm. Not that you're worth having an actual discussion with, anybody who writes "jewish psycho nihilism" is a moron.
>>726425596>happyHeh, so, hitting their wives and kids was an act of love and happiness
>>726425669>mediaconfusing kike fiction with reality is one mistake
>>726425610
>>726425610I agree they should go back in the closet so I don't have to be reminded of them existing
>>726425779>he doesn't read any kind of books Like clockwork
>>726425669I’m not saying they have to be like me. Protecting them from insane people while they are developing is a good thing and part of being a parent.
>E-celeb OP>90% of thread is Idpol and e-celeb discussion>300+ repliesI just don't understand what logic mods use when moderating this board.
>>726425725Not necessarily, it is outing the bad apples, those special snowflakes that can't grasp anything that doesn't fit their narrow ideology, the same kind of people that's always been against progress.
>>726425918>I just don't understand what logic mods use when moderating this board.The mods enjoy the politics and culture wars, to them that's what the site is actually about.
>>726425878>protecting themProhibiting them from talking to someone else is not protection, the only protection that works is good education.
>>726425938What’s wrong with this?
>>726425728you were always free to be an effeminate man or masculine woman, that’s why this movement is so retarded, the whole point of the non-binary concept was to be an individual not cut your dick off to match one binary better
>>726425932Letting men beat up women in contact sports isn't "progress". It has nothing to do with being closed-minded, it's just common fucking sense for the vast majority of people.
>>726407275I love watching this niggas vids coping about losing subsI think he finally moved on from youtube THOUGH which is too bad
Jim had probably one of the best transitions of all time, he definitely passes for an average british woman.
>>726426020Okay don’t be shocked when your kid befriends a psycho and does the sequel to columbine.
>>726426104I couldn't care less about sports, never understood what's so interesting about some people that run fast.
>>726420990Normal people don't create secret discords where they develop a pattern of grooming young confused people. They also aren't defended by ANYONE when they do get exposed after they take advantage of young victims. What aboutism isn't going to defend your kind from pattern recognition. For everyone in the gender cult that can get by and pretend to be a well adjusted person, there are a hundred secret discord chats of absolutely heinous shit.
>>726425453>And look how baby boomers turned out,They currently own everything and control the world.>or gen x,The older ones also control and own everything, and the young ones control all your media.>or millennialsSore losers.
>>726425938>No we're not delusional sex crazed narcissists you're just obsessed Pottery
>>726426098>you were always free to be an effeminate man
>>726426039Nothing it's hot so i posted it
>>726407406American videogame magazines were always absolute shit but the British magazines were solid as fuck.Everything went to shit when Gamespot got caught giving dodgy reviews.
>>726426104>Letting men beat up women in contact sports isn't "progress".it is funny though
>>726426197>muh money and assetsThey had a chance and took it, I don't see how that is related to education and respect for others. People way before them could just install a fence and if they could defend the land it was theirs.
>>726425938You got me I'm gay for femboys now
>>726407275Five Guys Burgers and Fries which led to Goobergape.Strictly speaking it was the Gamespot incident before that, but nobody remembers.
>>726425938Based. Let me hit and I’ll be pro trans.
>>726426161Again, some people are awful regardless of their orientation.
>>726426223stonewall deserved it too, gays should have kept it in the bedroom
>>726426368>They had a chance and took it, I don't see how that is related to education and respect for others.Why does it matter?They won. You lost. Go enjoy your education, and the $500,000 in debt you pull out to get it. Maybe in your 80s you cans tart having a fulfilling life.
>>726426476It was indoors and it was a secret meeting.
>>726425346Let me ask you, do you think tink the "decisive actions" taken have overall improved society's perception of trannies or lowered them?
>>726426495Uh, ok? I'm not indebted tho
>>726407275It's honestly hard to state just how big of a disaster trooning out was for Jim, like literally day one of revealing it wasn't a bit his views started tanking. No matter your stance on trans people in general, people came to Jim's channel for the Jim Sterling character and throwing that character in the bin to introduce whatever the fuck he became was an idiotic decision. I remember the day myself and immediately knew while watching how much this would screw his career over and he can only blame himself. Its comical how short-sighted the whole thing was.
>>726426527sounds like a brothel, they deserved it
>>726410224>>726408280I honestly wonder if Ozempic and tirzepatide gradually coming down in price will end the wave of MtF trannies.
>>726407341This honestly. Even in the good ol days, reviewers often had terrible opinions on eventual classic games, or they glazed up games that were genuinely flawed either because they didn't play enough of it or they needed ad revenue to keep the lights on.>>726408025Fuck no, how old are you nigger? Look at the youtube niggers that try to pander to 4chan or insert 4chan memes inti their critique, they're as bad as any IGN or cucktaku writer.
>>726426197>Sore losers.Only if they didn't buy crypto. Also millennials created internet culture (for better or worse). This site was made by one.
>>726426564The response to it was natural and should have been expected, exposing trans people to the entire world was bound to create some resistance, it was a necessary evil but it also informed others which resulted on increased support
>>726426157>I couldn't care less about sports, never understood what's so interesting about some people that run fast.Then you really shouldn't be deciding what happens in the world of sports.
>>726407586So never?
>>726426792You are really acting like trannies were the world's best kept secret?
>>726426870I don't decide what happens to sports, circus for the plebs
>>726426870yet we've got people who hate video games deciding what happens in the world of video games
>>726426603Its funny because Jim was on the upswing when he transitioned and then cratered massively afterward.
>>726426963No? I said it was expected but necessary
>>726424427>This is part of why video games will never be artNow what?
>>726407341This
>>726426452Yeah, and that doesn't change fags and troons having a greater propensity for being deranged predators. I'm sorry you were molested by one to become one.
>>726427020Yeah sports is so much more of a waste of time than 4chan. Face it we'd be better off if we were playing football instead of wasting our lives here.>>726427095And that's a bad thing too, isn't it?
>>726427167I was never molested, being trans is not necessary a sexual thing
Non-zero chance that the retards that spend all day here whining about trannies are posting with this at the top of their page
When they fired Jeff Gerstmann for giving Kane and Lynch a fair review.
>>726427218*necessarily
>>726427268that was meant as mockery, not a suggestion
>>726427268
>>726407275It always was.Pic related was an article in a magazine in 1995 calling out bullshit games journalism.
>>726427189Weren't we talking about professional sports? There's a world of difference between playing sports for fun and dedicating your entire life to run faster.
>>726427350The reality is that most of 4chan jerked off to chicks with dicks for years prior to your own existence.
>>726424427>This is part of why video games will never be art, because there can never be video game journalism.Hey retard, check the state of "music journalism" and "film journalism". Guess those don't count as art anymore either.
>>726409424https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iwH9S1rSdw
>>726408431I hope you're not implying Tim Rogers fixed it, seeing as he is one of the biggest problems in the games press.His "new games journalism", where the writer spends more time talking about anything other than video games, is absolutely atrocious.
>>726427218>being trans is not necessary a sexual thingCorrect, it's an insanity thing. Sorry you got brainwashed.
>>726427538Born like this
>>726427403Don't know about you, but I wasn't only talking about professional sports. But yeah I think dedicating your life to being at the best at something is noble, even if it's seemingly pointless in the long run. If nothing else, you push the limits of what people can achieve in that sport, inspire and entertain others, and later coach or lead others. It's still more valuable than sitting on our asses shitposting.I just think hating on sports is pretty lame.
>>726427594My stance applies to gaming too. I appreciate esports and even things like speedrunning. People being passionate about something and pushing themselves to the limit is cool.
>>726427581No, you weren't. You're a male.
>>726407275When he bit that dick in the saints row 3 review it bit him back
>>726427594I don't hate sports, I think that caring about people that run fast is dumb, it's a known way to control the masses and the way it was brought up in this thread confirms it.
>>726427513Tim Rogers occasionally has great insights and can be entertaining with his ramblings, but he's also so high off his own farts that it only works in small doses.
>>726427713Funny how everyone around me kept telling me I wasn't a man.
>>726412483Milky eyes
>>726411607Every post like this just makes me align with him more even if I think he's a clown, he isn't the usual triggered tranny here
>>726427189>And that's a bad thing too, isn't it?oopsI meant that for you >>726427078
>>726427462See, this is the issue, you see only twitter posts and think you have a conceptualization of what goes on in other mediums.Film and music do have actual journalistic bodies, unlike video games.Video games, as a medium, have three tiers of engagement and nothing else.>The media itself>Streamers or youtubers>Shortform reaction guys and livebloggers
>>726427439Those people were fags back then and are still fags now. You can be a chaser if you want, no one stopping you. But you are fag.
>>726427953>people mocked me and said I wasn't manly enough >I know, I'll sterilize myself with hormones and look like an unsightly freak, that'll show em!Anon, you're a very weak person and you fucked yourself beyond repair.

>>726428273I'm cute tho
>>726420238My brother trooned out and this post kinda encapsulates everything wrong with trannies. He legitimately began to believe his own family was his enemies who were trying to stop him from being his real self. Eventually we just had to kick him out when he began stealing from the family to fuel his drug addiction and hrt insurance bills.
>>726427953And instead of challenging that and proving them wrong, you said "o-okay" and kowtowed. You were bullied into permanently changing the direction of your life. This seems right to you?
>>726407275GamerGate really turned it up to 11. That's when I started blowing it off entirely. Imagine a bunch of journalists being called out for corruption, then using their position as journalists to silence people who don't have access to mainstream publication to defend themselves ... literally perpetuating the corruption they got called out on. What a fucking joke. To hell with these clowns.
>>726428438I never said I didn't try, and I tried harder
>>726409631>>726412148It depends on the hobby. If it's something where there's actual value to the hobby and it isn't in some highly corporate soulless industry like something in engineering, mathematics or the physical sciences then turning your hobby into a profession is the best course of action since you essentially get paid to do what you love anyways.But in for most hobbies, that has a decent kernel of truth to it.
>>726427350Sorry I had to double-check that there's still 3 boards dedicated to gay sex as there was when this website launched 20 years ago, yep still there, you're a fucking idiot.
>>726428175>you see only twitter postsNice projection, I avoid X slop grifters.>FilmNo one can name a respectable film/writer critic since Roger Eberts passing in 2013. There are no respectable film magazines outside of glorified celebrity gossip rags that are already dying like Entertainment Weekly.>musicEven worse. No normie can name a music magazine outside of Rolling Stone and that was always considered a fucking joke rag that never had a pulse on music until after a particular genre gets popular.
>>726428309Post a pic otherwise we all know you're just another delusional troon that won't make it to 40.
>>726428669You can always tell transphobic people are newfags, they would have seethed harder on the everyone is gay for bridget era
>>726428768>one can name a respectable anything since 2013fixed that for youexcept for one man
>>726428841Stop hitting on me silly anon
>>726428473Journos had a massive ego prior to GG and thought they could just bury their corruption. Hilarious how they thought they were some kind of elite class despite being complete jokes in any other industry.
>>726428972Show feminine penis or else
>>726428881/pol/ really turned this place into a dumb political dumpster, if we're going to start rounding up stupid people who believe in nonsense lets start with the religious because as far as I know there ain't no titty skittles in this world that can get you 1% closer to making god anything other than a delusion.
>>726428881Gays fucking hate trannies though? I see them fighting on redboards over bridget all the time.
>>726428473>picReminds me of when Computer Gaming World called RE1 misogynist. What was it with PC gaming mags being written by protocucks?
>>726428881the level of porn addiction grew over time, trannies are mostly late stage porn addicts
>>726428881cute 2D trap vs fat 3DPD trannycompletely different things
>>726429161linetrap was popular too
>>726428972I'm serious. Otherwise continue living until the important day comes where you make another life altering decision: rope or ammunition.
>>726429108Reminder finnster cited the pretending to be girl porn threads from /b/ being his main motivation for trooning out lol
>>726429034unfortunately the site admin is a dumb brown /pol/ack who turned this entire site into race bait and cuckold porn, every brownoids favorite things
Imagine being a journalist for fucking video games
>>726428881The same weirdos fapping to that shit are the ones who trooned out in modern year.
>>726429238Nah, even if I stop getting male attention I am happy with myself
>>726429461Do you play FFXIV?
>>726429381Imagine posting frogs on the internet. Like a stupid smiling frog holding a gun. Just imagine.
>>726429381That seems like an unoptimal shooting pose

>>726429649Is Halo Infinite good?
>>726429838^^
>>726429874Well it's halo with sprint and a hookshot, I find it fun.
>>726429958I will play it. I like turtles.
>>726428669>there's still 3 boards dedicated to gay sex 2 consenting adults having gay sex together is no one's business but their own. trannies grooming children is an entirely different issue. >as there was when this website launched 20 years ago,liar
>>726430032I like turtles too, I used to have two turtles and loved them a lot until they grew too much and my parents sold them u.u
>>726429683Ok well the republicans accept gays now too apparently because their kike overlords told them shlomo is just a little different and that's fine.>>726430074> trannies grooming children is an entirely different issue. I agree, but religious cultists have been doing it for 5000 years and nobody bats an eye.
>>726430116I had a bunch of box turtles over the year. Named after all the ninja turtles (it was the 90s). The one I have now has been with us for at least 20 years now, I have no idea how old he is.
>>726429034
>>726430074>>as there was when this website launched 20 years ago,>liarFucking tourists I swear every single one of you deserves a bullet
>>726429958>tranny enjoys the shittiest Halo
>>726428567You never tried, otherwise you wouldn't be a tranny.
>>726430309why don't you name the three gay boards that have existed since the website launched, groomer?
>>726430236I...named them after the Ninja Turtles too ^^, I would love to take care of some turtles or fishes but I've got two cats and one of them is crazy and would eat them
>>726407275>spend 99% of your game time on shitty low budget asset flips>cry and complain when steam keeps showing them to you>this also inadvertently results in the creation of one of the biggest gaming sensations of the 2010s created by a white christian family manOh the irony
>>726407275Did that fag at least lose weight?
It was always a meme.Game journalism is just marketing.
>>726430161it's utterly pathetic that you've crafted a strawman pedo priest to argue against so you can justify your own pedophilia. i'm not religious. i hate all pedophiles, both the religious and your kind.
>>726430564Why bother typing to a fucking retard who can't read, check the picture book to the left, find the 3 that match, that's something your crayon eating ass should be able to figure out.
>>726430309What was that, tourist?https://wiki.bibanon.org/4chan/History>2004>new boards: /cm/>2012>new boards: /hm/>2013>new boards: /lgbt/Imagine being such a faggot retard liar.
>>726430710Per capita more religious people fuck kids than trannies.This is just the sex education propaganda doctrine from the 70s.Keep the people stupid so they accidentally pump out a field of cotton pickers and gas station attendants.
>>726430798Moot was so based
>>726430716>proceeds to continue outing himself a tourist and even doubles-downYou cannot make this shit up.
>>726430716Hey nigger, see >>726430798None of the faggot boards were foundational. And the actual faggot board is only 12 years old.
>>726430798>2003 - /b/>2003 - yaoi>2004 - yuri
>>726407275At some point in the late 00's when they got a stick up their ass about being "real journalists", as though that's a high bar to aspire to. I liked it better when it was just people writing articles for Nintendo Power or Game Informer who accepted that they chose to make a living by writing about digital toys, and were happy about it
>>726430837And it's vast majority is male priest on male child, pointing to the fact that it's not a religious thing, it's a homosexual thing.
>newtrannies acting like oldfags>deliberately lie about when boards were made
>>726430837>per capita more religious people fuck kids than trannies>euphoric tranny fucker pedo has to lump third worlders and muslims so his retarded viewpoint has any weight to itWhite Christians pedos are practically a rounding error.And the priest fucking children thing wasn't a scandal because of the number of priests doing so, but because the Church actively tried to hide it from the public. Rabbis and muslims don't even consider pedophilia as a paraphilia, you stupid faggot.
>>726431098Male priests? Sorry anon I was not talking about clergy, I was talking about every single christian, muslim, jewish and hindu childfucker in the world.If we're just counting trans priests then I'm sorry to tell you but there are zero reported cases of trans priests raping children, most trannies are "normal" human being just like how fundamentalists are "normal" human beings.
>>726430837religious people make all the kids
>>726430678>I...named them after the Ninja Turtles too ^^Sweet. I'm sure a lot of kids did but still respect for that.
>>726430716do you know what words mean?>>726428669>when this website launched>when this website launched>when this website launched>when this website launched>when this website launchedwhat does that mean you dumb cunt
>>726431174Rabiis and muslims fuck 9 year olds and say there's nothing against it in the book.
>>726431231Then why did you mention it as if it was special
>>726431227So they're theirs to fuck?
>>726431306Because it was special to me. And I think it's special that a bunch of kids all decided to get turtles and name them after Ninja Turtles. Happy times.
>>726431305Quite the opposite, their religious laws say it's ok.And there's always some atheist faggot using "muh priests fucking chillunz" argument while conveniently ignoring that it was a scandal for a reason. While conveniently ignoring that Christians are the only religious group that doesn't allow the act.
>>726431537it’s estimated that 50% of hassidic boys first sexual experience is with a rabbi
>>726431051You said gay sex, as in with real people, not romance between fictional characters. And /b/ isn't exclusively about faggotry you dumb nigger.
>open thread >trannies already derailed it by crying about transphobia the internet really needs a new meta. troons just turn everything they touch to shit
>>726432167God you post the ugliest girls man, and I like Asian women.
>>726431810Israel is the country with the most cases of herpes because rabbis pas it on to the kids through bris.But let me tell you why Christianity is bad because a neglible amount of priests got caught and the Church wanted the problem to go away.Because the Church knows that Christians find pedophilia a heinous act.You think muslims would make a scandal for one of their religious leaders fucking children?I could bet you a 1000 dollars right now that with a 5 minute google search I can find news of muslim communities coming out to defend a pedo muslim priest.
>>726407275>mid and Late 2000sPeople realized it was trash but still took it a little seriously cause it was at least about videogames>Early 2010s People realized that it was basically paid advertising and made content mocking the industry but then got in bed with the same people they mocked literally and figuratively. Gamergay happened, and people noticed holy shit gaming journalism has been about weird social justice shit for a while>mid to late 2010sThey became nothing but clickbait and everyone knew. Everyone dunked on each other trying to look cool to an audience of nobody cause normies thought both sides of gamergate were gay>2020s to nowBecause rather than game journalists admitting they got seduced by the industry and being an "insider" and admitting they would try and do better, they all got promoted and open the door for fellow narcissists to join the industry and dismiss customer feedback as "GamerGate right wing trolling". As a result the game industry became delusional, began releasing dogshit, and now not even normies wanna buy their crap.So now the industry is collapsing, the game journos have lost their jobs cause they lost their readership, an entire industry ignored customers to protect the feelings of nepo hires, and even gamergate cringes over giving a shit and wonders why they didn't just stop spending money sooner instead of faggoty virtue signaling.And that is the history of Game journalism and the game industry past the mid 2000s in a nutshell
>>726432167Best part is them lying about the site like obvious tourists >ummm chud? this site had fag and tranny boards since the beginning >ok none of them were foundational but ummm, this one board about fictional romance counts!>and faggotry is allowed on /b/ so it counts!>no, I don't care /pol/ predates /lgbt/!
>>726432485 Pretty much nailed it, anon. Remember when getting a job at Kotaku or Polygon meant you were the guy who couldn’t code, couldn’t write, and couldn’t hold down a QA position, but wanted to feel important in the industry anyway? Fast forward and now they act like they're culture war generals while still misrepresenting trailers and review scores for clicks. The irony is that the “toxic gamer” they spent years trying to dunk on was right all along-stop shoveling garbage and insulting your audience. Shocking how that didn’t go well long-term.
>>726432485>even gamergate cringes over giving a shit and wonders why they didn't just stop spending money sooner instead of faggoty virtue signaling.People still had hope for a better industry.
>>726432642I've been in this shithole since 2005 and the only thing comparable to the shit that these deranged faggots are claiming that happened is anons mocking other anons for thinking traps were women.Basically>OP posts a lust provoking image>anon replies with: name?>OP: that's a man, HAHAHA faggot!>everyone else: HAHAHHA faggot!>anon: ohh you guys got me, hahahaAnd tranny faggots think this is an endorsment.Same shit happened with /fit/. /fit/ was an amazing board were young men were trying to be a better version of themselves.And we had ironic faggotry, with posts like>looking thick, solid, tight. No homoThe thing was that faggots thought ironic faggotry was an endorsment of their faggotry and they started infecting current body threads where they would prety on 18 year old guys who posted their progress.Faggots killed /fit/ when it was one of the funniest boards in the entire website.
>>726407275Back in the days of G4 network, no even before that. During the days of game magazines like Game Pro, Game Players, Nintendo Magazine, PSM, EGM, etc.But seeing as this thread is nearing bump limit I'm sure that's been stated over 100 times by now. Figured I'd add to the choir.
>>726407275Blatant cover up of gamergate. Video game journalism was always a joke though. They were always corrupt. They just revealed their hand during gamergate.
>>726433154Everyone's gay for Bridget yadda yadda. Traps were far less controversial though, and so no one got mad about them. No one felt girly boys needed to be purged from 4chan (that was solidly furries), it was just silly fun. Why so srs unless it was the question of whether or not futa is gay, that debate was taken very seriously it is btwYou know, you could say that about a lot of 4chan culture then as compared to now. In general, 4chan would laugh at things. Now, in general, 4chan gets mad about things. The only constant is we've always hated each other.
Be honest, when was the last time you legitimately read a review?I honestly can't remember.
