Do you still see yourself playing videogames in your 60s even though games are only getting worse ?
>>
No, I'll be dead by then
>>
>>729175136
No
I plan to finally get a job and start working in my 60s
>>
>>729175246
Why dont you start right now?
>>
>>729175281
because I rather enjoy my life while im young than use my youth to help old rich people get richer.
>>
>>729175621
You'll not be able to afford a PC / console in a couple of years if you dont work.

Medicine would become good enough to save us and make us live as slaves forever. Videogames.

Job market is going to be completely unrecognizable 10+ years from now thanks to AI.
Entry level jobs are already collapsing.
>>
I have no games installed (40)

dunno what to do now, i wasted my life so far
>>
>>729175136
Yes because there's thousands of games I can play that aren't coming out post-2018. No to mention the indie scene will always be generally safe due to being decentralized.

WHAT THE FUCK, IS THIS REAL?
>>
oh yeah definitely. I get the feeling like my generation of elderly will be much better off than boomers who didn't get into games and stuff
I fucking hope I live that long and am still able to function enough to play vidya, even if its just mario type shit.
sure as hell beats staring out the window or at a tv for 24 hours

HOLY SHIT
>>
>>729176335
and what are (you) planning to do about it? You think countries that already struggle with pensions will lend UBI to their populace?
>>
>>729176614
you can't retire until you're old enough. it's only couple years of market work and then can retire. not big deal
>>
>>729176878
>you can't retire until you're old enough.
retire with what money
>>
>>729176904
savings and monthly retirement money of course
>>
>>729176614
Those who retire earlier tend to die earlier! It's a fact!
>>
>>729176724
Really no need to worry about it. Either the government figures something out or no one has money for anything so AI is pointless because whatever products these companies are making cannot be bought by anyone because no one has money and then we kill all elites.

This isn't a "oh no my particular line of work will be obsolete I better do something" kind of problem, it's the entirety of the populace getting affected, so some kind of economic revolution will have to happen, either peacefully or violently.
>>
>>729176964
Which you won't have if you never worked
>>
Yes, absolutely. I happen to not be a poorfag and the pool of good games grows inevitably. I have all the old original hardware I could possibly want, terabytes of games. Never ever let them psyop you into thinking it's over.
>>
>>729177232
i don't really use money for anything so have tons of savings and stocks etc. working at market will be just old age hobby like golf.
i know one millionaire who does food deliveries for supermarket. it's just past time and makes more money because he is addicted to getting more money no matter from where
>>
>>729175136
With how the world is going, I don't thing video games are going to be a thing in 10 years.
It would be a nice too still have electricity in 15 years.

>>729177912
What makes you think so?
>>
>>729177912
Older people in every generation think there's going to be a societal collapse

US will invade Venezuela
China will use that to invade Taiwan
We were never closer to WW3

Greed.
more and more companies want to move to "cloud computing", no longer do you Buy a PC that cab play games, but pay Invidia to connect to a "gaming server" to play X hours a month, and any thing over X, you have to pay extra.

AI farms will just become "gaming server".

after that just boomers and gen-Xucks being retarded, for the last 40+ years, companies wanted more "non-white, non-male" workers, so many white males failed to learn the jobs that keep the world going.

I hope I'm wrong, But I'm buying ammo.
>>
>>729178471
>We were never closer to WW3
And we will never be. War will tank the AI tech corporations stocks and so US will never do that.

I'm 34. not that "old"

Did WW3 start when Russia invaded Ukraine? That'll just be 2 more proxy wars.

Xe's barely a teenager, wtf are you on about
>>
>>729175136
I mean right now, since 2019, I've been having more fun with gaming than I ever did from 2009-2019. I honestly almost quit the hobby since I usually only had 1-2 games a year I actually cared to pick up. For a time, all I played was Bloodborne and Dark Arisen with some Battlefield 4 and 1 mixed in.

If there's games I'm interested in, I'll stay in the hobby until I'm dead.

>>729178640
War will still happen because it's always more profitable than AI, and will allow jews to claim insane amounts of power. Western world becoming weak and broken is literally what Chinese overlords and jews need.

Watched a 1 hour video on this guy's channel and he's a complete schizo loner that believes his episodes are the holy spirit talking through him and that his fellow Canadians being nice to him and not telling him to fuck off during these episodes to be proof of the divine, was having a giggle at his expense till he mentioned this all started with the death of his mom, then I understood what was happenings, it's always a tragedy in the family that kickstarts these things. He also plays Skyrim exclusively as a normal Christian guy and has thousands of hours in the game without killing anyone or even interacting in any way with something that would appear non-Christian, all he does is walk up to NPCs and spread the word of the Lord, also no sex (which saddens him deeply) because marriage is tied to Dibella, who, of course, is a false god.

I probably won't live to see my 50s.
>>
>>729175136
If current dev cycles are anything to go by, i'll be over 60 by the time Ciri Witcher 3 is out. I'm not even 40 yet.

>>729176329

I haven’t laughed this hard in a while

>>729180137

So fix that

>>729177912
I get this feeling too but I wonder if it's just retarded fear mongering or if we really are witnessing the end of this age of peace and prosperity.

I can't it's hopeless

>>729175136
Once I'm retired, I'll finally have all the time in the world tackling my backlog. Hidden in there, I expect to find at least one game that is good, I'll deeply regret that didn't play it decades ago.

>live life in a way where you slave away while young so you can retire when you're old
>but by the time you retire you're nearing the point where you're too crippled to do shit or you're already at that point
amazing
>>
i dont think i have another year in me
>>
>>729175136
Yeah. Vidya is probably the most consistent hobby I have and there's still a massive amount of old and even untranslated games that I still have yet to play.
>>
>>729175136
Yep, until the day I die.

In 30-40 years you'll have boomerlenials doing LAN parties in the nursing homes
