You're never too old for games, but too many males have replaced their drive or ambition for literally anything in life with just video games. I don't mean UHM GO INTO DEBT FOR MR. SHEKELBERG or w/e, I mean guys who will literally never try to interact with an actual woman (not one with a dick) or go out with friends or have life experiences that are not gaming in discord.
My dad plays games and is 62 years old, but he also sold his business for 7 figures 3 years ago and is retired. Meanwhile my little brother has literally never had a job and just turned 29 and spends all day playing OSRS and Classic WoW.

Video games feel like so much hassle these days. I haven't seriously played anything since Dispatch. I just open SillyTavern and have fun with chatbots. Chatbotting became superior option to play with instead of games. Just choose a card, load up lorebooks and play on, possibly forever.
Games are a hassle because you have to choose what to play, torrent, spend at least 2 days downloading and installing mods, then look up builds, and force yourself to play for 80 hours. Most times I give up during the modding process, not even launching the game. Mods need to stop being small and fragmented and be complete, plug and play if they want to keep PC gaming alive.
This reminds me of when books went to shit. Back in the day you had one novel and that was it. Nowadays every story is at least a trilogy, you need several novels plus companion, notes, maps, and interpretations.

The only real draw to PC gaming is modularity. The problem is there are only few big and organized mods like Lost Alpha, Project Tamriel, FOLON, so you need to trace a dozen mini mods across Nexus, Gamebanana, Pateron and Discord. Consoles are good if you don't have modding autism. I just can't play vanilla. It's like not being able to put salt and pepper in my soup.

The real draw is better graphics, performance, and superior, customizable control options all on the machine I use for other entertainment purposes.
It costs more, but I am an enthusiast so I spent more for a better experience. However, there are diminishing returns and I think that for most people buying a PS5 Pro or Switch 2 will give you what you need and PC gaming is for very casual or very hardcore players. PS5 Pro is way better than people act like it is, the thing is clearly 100% worth the price if you're a more casual gamer.
>>
>>727691514
No. What draws people to PC is they can use it as a gaming machine, workatation or a fap machine where purchasing programs and games is optional. You're a PC gamer because you're supposed to love doing things the hard way.

I used to be the same way but I realized mods were ruining games for me. By mutating the mechanics to the point that gameplay was no longer enjoyable or by just overwhelming me to the point where I would ONLY browse mods and optimize my modlist and not play games, or if I did it would just be for a few minutes to see if the mods were working and what new content (that I would never use) was added. It's kinda like if you coom too much, you can never go back to vanilla porn and will just spend all of your energy on finding new and weirder coombait.

You act like that shit is worth it in current year considering how horrible most women are in today's day and age (as in they aren't wife material and they're too worthless to even be whores) and how fairweather most "friends" are.

A better metric is other hobbies outside vidya and whether a dude has a job or not (especially one that pays well and you love). That's a better metric for whether a dude is just wasting his life on vidya or not.

the reason gaming as a hobby is seen as a problem is because it's rare that somebody will tell you "yeah I ended up spending a whole year not leaving my room just reading books all day" that kind of destructive behavior is kind of exclusive to gaming.

If you really love movies, you still probably didn't waste a whole summer of your life where you did literally nothing but watch movies. But people will do that with gaming

I didn't mention job specifically because people on here will strawman being employed (even owning your own business) as a jewish scheme. I still agree with you though, and having no income and simply relying on others while you play games unfortunately describes a lot of men right now. I also do agree with having other hobbies too, especially one with a community you can be a part of.

Speaking of women, you need to stop being so jaded. Plenty of women suck, but so do plenty of men. You can still meet regular people, and in fact I'd argue that it is more paramount than ever that you try to find one of the remaining normal people before they're gone because soon it will just be 30-40 year old schizo basement dwelling men and 30-40 year old pink haired ladies with more cats than functioning ovaries.

I'll tell you something, as long as you enjoy it and isn't hurting your health like drugs, you just don't have to give a fuck about what some wet hole thinks about you.
If you get a girlfriend and she makes you choose between her or your hobbies, never choose her, because that's just the beginning of a really toxic relationship, and she'll take advantage of you in the future to distance you from your friends, what you like, your family and she'll end up finally straight up psychologically and physically abusing you.

Those people are NEETs that are functionally just children in mind and spirit. I just ignore them.

I'll be very fair and say there are a bunch of women out there and that would make for a good spouse. My problem is just finding them in a small college town where I automatically don't really fit in with the places where these women are. I'm not a genuine weirdo or something like that, I just realize that the social spaces where the women are mentally taxing to try and navigate as an adult with an already stressful job. I'm just waiting till I move to a larger city to start looking for women.

Medieval serfs ate healthier than the wealthy in many instances. The wealthy were eating tons of red meat, sugar, fat, white flour and downing jug after jug of alcohol. Meanwhile, fish were by law classified as a public resource. Peasants ate a lot of fresh herbs and green vegetables, fish, and whole grain bread, and they drank considerably less booze than the nobility. A modern welfare queen's diet is more similar to a medieval king than a peasant, and a nutritionist would tell you that a medieval peasant diet of fish, fresh vegetables and slow-risen whole grain bread is a good start for a healthy lifestyle.

Store bought bread is crap. If you buy a stand mixer you can make your own very easily. You don't need to spend a fortune on heirloom einkorn flour to get health benefits from going homemade, either. A slow cold proofing on bread (12 to 24 hours) gives the yeast time to break down and process the starches and agricultural chemicals that are in our wheat supply, while using less sugar and yeast. You can substitute some white flour with organic whole wheat to get more fiber and protein, as well. Store bought bread uses a lot more sugar and yeast so that manufacturers can get a quick rise out of it, so the yeast is mostly just feeding off of sugar to create gas without processing the wheat to unlock its nutrients, as well as leaving potentially harmful chemicals unprocessed. And that's not even considering all the chemicals they add to bread to keep it soft for weeks and prevent mold.

Medieval bread had only 4 ingredients: flour, water, salt, and yeast. A more modern recipe can also add a little bit of oil (a standard ingredient in bread from the near east, mentioned in numerous passages in the Bible), and a little bit of sugar to help with proofing. The way the bread is proofed actually has more to do with how healthy it is than what type of wheat it's made of.

This anon is smart and any young anon should heed his advice. Crippling yourself socially and hiding behind any extreme is never good. You can play vidya all fucking day long once you have your shit together and work on yourself as a man. I’m a fucking autist and even I go out with my friends, share experiences, try to meet chicks. I’ve made so many life long friends in vidya, but the times I’ve had with my few bros irl is irreplaceable. The breakups I’ve went through and the talks I’ve had with my bros afterwards, hanging out and just talking about life, or their hardships, or seeing them better themselves and challenging myself to grow because they’re bettering themselves. It’s a feeling that can’t be replaced.

as someone born into money, gen z can't afford to exist. it's so fucking bad everywhere it's insane. my girlfriend is a 24 year old zoomer, i'm 35. i took her to a nice restaurant 2 weekends ago and there were literally 0 people her age. it was 99% olds, us, and i think an older millennial couple. that night she wanted to pay, so i let her see the bill. she had a look of horror while staring. i was never going to let her pay, but even has someone who's dating someone that can afford everything, her face said it all. not only is everything terrible, not only are we ripped off in every single scenario, not only will it get much, much worse, we now have 2 generations that are guaranteed poverty, and half my generation is going with them. i was never an "eat the rich" person, but fuck, that might be the only way out. we have both democrats and republicans floating the idea of just killing the homeless, we're importing a fucking slave class by the millions yearly, we're paying for wars forever, we're giving half our money to israel, and a zoomer can't even get a fucking job that will ever amount to anything. i can weather the storm, but most can't.

This is why articles like this are so shitty.

It’s conditioning posing as curiosity.

I had my normalfag phase too and it's a waste of time. I literally got nothing out of it except some vague memories and a feeling of "been there, done that". The normalfag world is so fake and performative. Even the intimate stuff like sex and romance are like a theatre play as zoomettes watch porn and google "sex techniques" instead of going with the flow and sex becomes a chore as a guy. Entertaining a bitch who frustrates you sexually so that you can get some fucky sucky and empty your blue balls is fun at first but then you realize it's just socially approved hedonism, not some spiritual experience. And as all social things, these trends ultimately come from the top, i.e. rich fags brainwashing young people with consumerism. So in the end you're just dancing their tune, so to speak. Drugs are cool though.

It used to be worse 20-30 years ago when even mentioning you used a computer was a major ick that'd dry and close vags shut harder than superglue. But thanks to propaganda, and as we all know the mind of a normalfag (and the female version: cuntoid) is basically entirely programmable, computers are kinda cool now, so it's not a major ick. To be a bit pendantic, smartphones are computers too, and everyone is glued to their phone nowadays, even while socializing

>>727703935
I don't blame incels. Women basically consume and blue ball people 90% of the time, and give pussy 10% of the time, but if you're not tall and handsome the latter is difficult (if not impossible) to obtain, so you'll just be blue balled into insanity. There's a reason for this mechanism, tho. Blue balling men inflates the value of pussy and thus makes people think women are super important.

Thanks to social media losers now see that some guys can just ask their FWB for a fuck n suck, and it will simply happen. Whereas some guys have to careermaxx and act like clowns for countless hours just to get a crumb of that

What does social media have to do with that? Also, women were always like that, but it was in real life behind closed doors. Now women openly brag about that or admit to it on social media what red pilled guys had been saying for a decade+. Women will have one guy crawl through nails and still give him nothing or lead him on for her own benefit but will then bend over backwards for a guy whose name she doesn't even know. Women usually know who they will or won't fuck within a handful of interactions with that person. That's why it's useless to jestermaxx for any woman. If she truly wants to fuck you believe me she'll make it happen some kind of way.

Experienced it from some dumb bitch at the deli just staring at me when someone was about to by a slab of roast pork I had already ordered and I'm trying to explain that it's my pork. Had to tell the guy that I already claimed it and we sorted it out easily while she just kept staring.
But I'm whole-heartedly willing to believe that she's just the same Dumb that has always existed. Hell there's a reason why mutes were called Dumb in the first place and why Dumb is a term for someone who just silently stares at you. Zoomers didn't exist in the time of Hellen Keller.

I have my life balanced exactly how I want it to be and women don't have a place in it.
Why is that an issue? Especially for other guys?
Doesn't my refusal to partake in the game just mean they have less competition?

Why are they so upset that I'm not playing the game? I understand why women could have an issue with it, by saying I don't find women interesting I've said they themselves are not interesting.
But why do men-

Oh. I know why.
Because by putting me down they're trying to peacock and crab-dance to impress them. "LOOK LADIES, THAT GUY WHO DISRESPECTED YOU WITH HIS DISINTEREST!? I CALLED HIM A LOSER! I'M AGREEING WITH YOU! HAVE SEX WITH ME BECAUSE I'M AGREEING WITH YOU!"
No wonder women hate men if they're this performatively pathetic.
I finally get it.
I finally fucking get it.

You know the really annoying guy who tries to butt into your friend-group?
That is what the average man is to women. Some annoying guy who won't shut the fuck up and stop trying to butt in.
Men are to women what Indians are to the internet.

That's exactly my point. Female nature has been exposed and studied to a higher degree than before.

I know so many guys who jestermaxx and careermaxx for a crumb of pussy, only to become addicted to the societally approved hedonism and then become suicidal when she inevitably finds an upgrade and the guy gets mercifully dumped (the brutal alternative is to get secretly cucked for years). It's pretty simple, if you base your values on pussy, and pussy belongs to an irrational being who is easily brainwashed by propaganda, you're gonna end up addicted and tortured even if you succeed.

Civilization is that bar that lets women in for free but expects men to pay simply to access the women inside. When a bar can't attract enough customers, it eventually shuts down. When a civilization can't convince enough men to actually participate in it it begins collapses inwards on itself.

Exactly. You aren't guaranteed a wife, and certainly not a virgin one. You aren't guaranteed a job thanks to outsourcing and immigrants. You aren't guaranteed a house because housing prices must stay up to protect boomer investments. Our culture is run by HR cunts and pedophile boomers and jews.

What am I even working towards? Why the hell would I do more than the bare minimum to survive and save a bit? Why would I join the military or volunteer to help some drug addicts or illegals get free stuff?

The cost far outweighs the benefits. The social contract has been broken for short term profit and making women feel good.

Your dad enjoyed a life 90% of millenials and zoomers could never dream of filled with ample opportunity. Millenials and Gen Z have known nothing but wage stagnation, high inflation, being completely priced out of RENTING let alone owning a home, and other morale destroying issues that have made it exponentially harder for your average man to get ahead. As opposed to women who can simply choose to show their pussies to strangers on the internet and get paid for it. We have come to a point where your average man is just bowing out because they need to work 100x harder (or get lucky) to get the absolute basics of life to reaffirm their male identity. There is no point anymore. The dynamic between men and women is so skewed these days in favor of women that it makes relationships difficult to not only get but maintain. This is the root of the tranny problem as well. Modern capitalist society has gone out of its way to demoralize and destroy two generations of men.

it's for kids because majority of millenials and zoomers play games as their hobby, and choose it over investing in society and pursuing women which usually involves buying shit and then letting her buy shit on your dollar. That's all it is. Men are not helping people who hate them, and the one's who hate them are seething about it. A lot of men aren't even buy the big corporate games anymore either, just going for small indie games made by other men similar to them, so the money is just circulating among them and never hitting women or the others.

your boomer father should have let his sons inherit his business instead of selling it to mr. noseberg if he wanted them to be ambitous. whats a 29 year old to do besides play videogames? Every single boomer who is successful today, got there with help from their parents. Nobody pulled themselves by their bootstraps, the phrase itself is a meme about impossible tasks but retarded boomers pretend otherwise. I remember my own old man doing something similar. He started his business with a small loan from his dad for 25k. Whats 25k in todays money? half a million dollars. I'd be lucky to get him to spot me 20 for lunch, i aint ever gonna get that kind of support from the older generation. Fuck you, ill play my videogames. You arent entitled to my labor, im not going to start from the bottom and work my way up carrying every woman and shitskin whos there just to collect money while i break my back for a society that hates me.

when it comes time to kick all these worthless fucks out of my country, then I'll put my videogames down and roll the dice seeing how far I can get, but Im not working for noseberg, or pajeetpatell, or dealing with abunch of karens that will report me for complaining about niggers and spics fucking everything up all day long.

I didn't make any friends since high school and the friendships kinda fizzled out. Some of them remained friends, but I didn't get asked by anyone and whenever I initiated contact they seemed disinterested.
I just feel like I don't fit in anywhere.
I really want friends, but I just seem to be able to make acquaintances, I don't want to push for more because I know that I will get rejected anyway since I don't have anything in common with anyone.
What's even worse is that at my workplace most people are about my age (around 24-32) and I feel like I am the only one who doesn't belong to a clique. It makes me frustrated.

women older than 19 are a waste of time, statistically speaking those who have their first kid before 19 have multiple in marriage.

I dated a 12y old I know for years, made her pregnant at 15 (aoc 14 in germany you amerimutts) and married at 17, we have 4 kids now. I'm 16y older than her btw.

The worst mistake in all of human history (outside of allowing kikes to live, but that is the root cause anyway) is allowing women to work, get educated and own property. Conveniently for me this is a non issue, due to the pregnancy at the natural right age she stopped after basic education, relies on me (which in turn motivates me to work, I got a real reason and drive), and we bonded pretty heavily since she is not run down like a whore. Is she a 10/10 model? Probably not but for me she is the mother of my kids so she is irreplaceable.

Really that is why most men ignore society, we want a female that is fertile, not a career karen for a pity baby.

No, I damn well don't know that. Modded Oblivion to hell and back and never ran into that issue. Aside from that everything I modded has either been standalone overhauls/romhacks or QoL/bugfixes.

Also, if you KNOW you are too much of a retard to get an idiosyncratic clusterfuck of mods working, then you only have yourself to blame for trying. Disparate mods from different creators are never going to be plug 'n play, because the creators aren't all working together to iron out merge conflicts and bugs where they have stepped on each other's toes.

>>727690149
You really should either try to play stuff other than videogames (since you seem into chatbots), or just try something other than moddable RPGs. You liked Dispatch, try This is the Police. Or try another story-based game, perhaps even one with rpg mechanics. Hell, if you're doubtful on what to try, Steam has had a demo resurgence, try anything you find interesting, and then pirate the game itself (if it's out).
Also, no clue how it takes you 2 days to torrent a game with optic fiber bro.

To me this is liking saying “how old is too old for movies” or “how old is too old to read novels”. Videogames are just another form of entertainment. Acting like they’re something you can “age out” of when they can have immersive experiences or gripping narratives like any other form of media makes no sense.
>>
>women need to stop being whores BAD
>women need to stop being gamers GOOD
>>
when does someone become too old to watch TV/netflix series? how about movies, other than those of which I approve? there's no sense of hope for the future for many young guys, so even though it's ultimately self-destructive, a lot of them are going to say "fuck you too" to a system which actively seeks their annihilation and has also uplifted women and minorities far beyond their stations, thereby cutting off many paths for traditionally "successful" lives.

a society which fails to provide a reasonable trajectory to success for its youth deserves to fail. "learn to code", "get a STEM degree", etc. have been empty promises for success to many. now the ruling class is screeching about why young men are dropping out of society, and their only recourse is to octuple down on their previous failed strategies, even though they were warned ahead of time. fuck these people, and let it all burn to the ground. maybe something more worthwhile can be built from the ashes.

even before novels as such were released - when there was just a chapter or so at a time released at intervals in some other publication, for example - the folk wisdom at the time was that serialized novels were going to be the downfall of society. if you go back far enough in time, contemporaries were saying the same about written language. granted, having to memorize entire sagas must have taken a monumental level of effort, but the ability to record information beyond the memory of the village wise man has certainly been beneficial overall.

I think that AGI/ASI, as envisioned by the ruling class, would be a true gamechanger. No other technology has even the theoretical capability for autonomous self-improvement, but it's not certain we are going to get there.

you wanna know why?
fuck it im in a mood, ill tell you why. i know this is a stupid troll post but fuck it anyway.

we cant be 'normal well adjusted men' because being a 'normal well adjusted man' involves incredible amounts of effort and sweat. it doesnt come naturally. you have to come up with ambitious plans, develop them, pursue them, be willing to fuck over others to achieve them, be charming and suave and smart and built as fuck; you have to put in ten bajillion times the effort to be a 'normal well adjusted man' as you have to do to be a 'normal well adjusted woman' because all thats ever demanded of a woman is to not be a landwhale. and unlike in earlier times, all the rewards for going through all that effort have been systematically destroyed and erased. men are no longer the respected leaders and breadwinners that women and other men look up to and follow when they succeed, they're no longer admired or listened to and no one gives a shit about them. its all psy-op demotivational bullshit to try and paint men (usually white men) as the source of all the world's evils while conveniently forgetting that all the actual evils of the world are held at bay by the efforts of men, at least those men who havent yet checked out and stopped bothering to try

we cant be 'normal well adjusted men' because YOU, in your ignorance, stupidity, and selfishness, created a world in which there is no benefit to being a 'normal well adjusted man'. bitch.
>>
>>727712638
being "normal and well-adjusted" means, increasingly, taking a cocktail of pharmaceutical drugs to deal with how fucked things are: an anxiolytic, an antidepressant, a conjugate to the former which makes the antidepressant "work better", a GLP-1 to paralyze your stomach because you started overeating due to the other drugs, etc etc all the way down. we didn't evolve so as to be fungible economic units that can be used up and discarded as necessary for the sole goal of making investment portfolios increase in value. the whole environment in which people grow up these days is poisonous - from the social milieu down to the food and water they ingest - and we're supposed to keep the whole shitty thing going by going even more numb from even more behavior-altering medications.

I was really obsessed with this sort of mentality when I was a little kid, like I had to age out of Power Rangers because I was a big boy now in the 3rd grade, shit like that. In hindsight it caused me a lot misery.

I have a job, a wife, kids, a house, I make good money, and I enjoy video games. I play video games with my boss, I met my wife playing video games. There's this weird online machine that wants to convince losers that the reason they're losers is something they have in common with most of the population rather than the weirder things exclusive only to them, so you see people here seriously convinced that their problem is porn and video games and not being on 4chins or watching doom streams of sigma shit and tate slop. It's sad, and because they cross pollinate back into the hobby it kind of lessens those spaces too. The whole thing is tard logic from the start.

You're doing a thing retards always do where they pretend everyone around them is living a life that is fully and meticulously planned out, like they consciously chose to not have kids. The reality is that life just sort of happens to you, and the average guy has been put into a circumstance where the cost of marriage and building a family is sky high, and the cost of being a whore is zero or a net positive, and so the opportunity to just have kids isn't there. This idea that people are choosing X over Y is asinine, like all they had to do was go down to the department of girlfriends and fill out the forms to start the creampies.

>>
>>727734757
well, anon, discussing the age and the relationships with other people while being a gamer directly has to do with video games and video game culture.
for example, the average gamer is like 36 years old. so they do some experience with interpersonal realtionships, believe it or not. and how normie women don't like "gaming".

He's right though. After the plague wiped out a third of Europe, labor shortages meant landlords had to compete for workers, which led to better wages and more freedoms for peasants.

right to food is the main vector for this. theres this meme floating around left wing circles that people are entitled to food. Which leads to the question: how would the state provide food? what kind of food? how do we do it equally and with equity?

simple: outlaw/limit personal consumption and tie it to carbon credits/carbon allowances. Outlaw gardening/hunting/self production. Mandate digital id so all consumption can be tracked on a blockchain and provide restricted oppertunities for consumption to force adherence. You can only buy x ounces of meat per day/week/month/year. Which leads to mandatory rationing/distribution, which leads to mystery processed slop because its whats most 'efficent', at least on paper.

A man who isn't invested into society through having a wife, kids and some small parcel of property is potentially dangerous. A man with few ties to society might one day decide that he has a lot to win and not much to lose by trying to change things.
