Is it bad to still play video games when you're 40 years old? Asking for a friend.
>>
as long as you have a wife and kids and play after they’re all in bed it’s fine

Why would you ever stop doing something if you enjoy it (and it's not completely ruining your life)?

I have a 55 year old chinese boomer manager at work that plays on his PS5 in his office half the day. When he's too lazy to commit to whatever he's got installed he plays some mobile game I don't recognize on his phone. I've seen manga on his ipad and I've seen his wife reading something that looked like shoujo or josei manga. Do whatever the fuck you want.
>>
>>729428523

World's too dog shit to care about that sort of dilemma
Enjoy what you enjoy

can you post which set this is from. I want to see the rest of the pics. Thanks

>>729428523
It largely depends on the person, I don't see a general rule. Some people are very social, look good, and live successful lives with a solid job and a partner, and still play a lot of video games. Some people play a lot of video games and they're fat, jobless losers who live off government aid. Some people don't play video games at all and they're fucking losers.

Whatever keeps you away from some gay shit like collecting RC cars or scat fetishism, I say. Plus i'm close to 40 and i will not stop playing games until you put me in the ground

>>729428774
Yeah that's pretty much how a majority of this board is going to end up like as they get old. Probably playing vidya and shitposting on 4chan like does anyone actually think they're going to suddenly wake up to being a normalfag?
>>
I'm 31 and sorta feeling like unc anymore idk, not too bad I guess at the moment. wish we'd get a new Bioshock or 3D Mario soon though
>>
>>729428523
why do we group all types of video games under one roof? the only embarrassment i feel is daily login hamster wheel slop
>>
between 25-35 is when you shouldnt be playing video games, and instead trying to achieve things. go study or get yourself into a career. once you have established those things and can see a positive future for yourself, you can then find time to pick up the controller again.

if you dont have any of that and are 35, then you can also pick the controller back up because its over for you so continue wasting your life away or whatever, faggot
>>
>>729428523
Like sure you should probably not spend all your time playing games no matter how old you are, but once you got everything important in your life covered, what the hell else are you supposed to spend your free time on? There's people who are so afraid of having hobbies because they think they're wasting their time, but they waste all their time on even less important shit.
>>
>>729428523
What else are you supposed to do with your free time? Watch fucking TV?

Video gaming has become that thing you do when you have nothing else to do

>>
>>729430407
I got bad news for you:
Basically no one is accomplishing anything anymore. Influencing, streaming, and acting like a faggot on the internet is just as much a waste of time as playing anime slop on your phone.

Unless you're an engineer creating new technology or a scientist inventing cures, you're wasting your life. Whatever it is you are doing is a waste.
>but I'm a lawyer!
A waste.

And when you're in your late 30s and 40 you're not going to be clubbing and chilling with "friends" anymore anyway... so wtf you gonna do? especially during winter?? nothing. Either gaymin' or watching boring movie slop shit or going to the gym.
So yeah gaming is one of the few left in certain circumstances

>>
>>729428623
I have a few bastards running around Asia, does that count?
>>
>>729430686
My man, makeup is made to conceal those things and the image obviously isn't particularly good quality because that fat alcoholic retard was in charge of it, so i bet it's hiding a tonne. She does probably look good for her age still but there are plenty of good-looking 40y/o women
>>
When practically any work of fiction you can somewhat interact with is called a videogame, does it even matter?
Would you consider an adult watching the super mario bros. movie more of an adult because he's watching a movie?
You can choose between dozens of vastly different genres. You can play shit from 4 decades ago today. You don't even play these games with the same input methods. Videogames are just another form of general media. People in their 60s are playing videogames right now. Hell they're streaming them.
Videogames are not the issue, you are. You are if you feed into an addiction and spend several hours everyday while eating shit, playing the same nonsense over and over, learning very little. Some argue that bringing consoles outside, like handhelds, is embarrassing or childish. The general idea is not that videogames are for children, it's that you may look like you can't really spend time outside without playing videogames.

Film, books and music has existed for what... more than a century? centuries for music + books even.
Vidya is still relatively "new" in comparison , so theres still some stigma that it's """"ONLY""" for younger people.

Just give it another 10-20 years and a loooot of gamers will be 50+ and still gaming.. then no one will give a shit anymore. (Unless the whole "you vill own nothing" WEF crap accelerates in the next 5 years and no one can afford to game)
I mean just 20 years ago gaming was mostly for teens and kids, now most gamers are millenials.
>>
>>729428623

>>729428523
It's not necessarily "bad", but it means you're not fully satisfied with your real life and need a surrogate activity to feel some sense of achievement
>>
>>729432426
>Happy people have no hobbies
What kind of normalfag dumbass logic is that
>>
>>729430610
Based and seasonal pilled. Winter is peak mental rot season and if you’re not gaming, you’re either doomscrolling, rewatching garbage-tier Netflix slop, or pretending lifting fills the void. At least games give you something to look forward to. We’re not kids anymore, but that doesn’t mean we have to embrace being boring husks.
>>
Wish more people just own up to the fact that some vidya is just complete waste of time (i.e. no skill no thinking cookie clicker shit). It's like fat people trying to come up with excuses when a simple "yes, and?" would suffice.
>>
>>729428523
I swear she had nudes leak a long time ago but I can't find them. Mandella effect?
>>
>>729432515
You're having fun, how's that a waste of time? As long as you're not playing all day long, what's the problem
>>
>>729432521
She didn't. She used to post thirst trap bikini pics, often to shill G-Fuel. There were some AI nudes though. She now kind of pretends she never took the thirst trap pics by saying people made AI pics of her, to kind of say they were ALL AI, and not just the porn ones, without outright saying it. Lie by omission.
>>
>>729432505
Yep well said. Unless you live in south America and winter is like summer there or some shit lol
But yeah gaming a lot during summer or spring is when there's something not quite "right" with someone. Plenty of shit to do outside.
If i cant game at ALL during winter i'd go insane legit lol

If gaming is a waste of time then watching movies is also a waste of time, so is listening to music, so is reading a fiction book/novel.
What the fuck do YOU do in your spare time in this season? you draw? play music? that it? cause what else is "productive" for you when you're back home in the evening after work/ after chores??

Creating art is meaningful, sometimes to you alone, sometimes to others. it's at least impressive to others. I can make games, 99.9% of people can't. I haven't made my first dollar yet but regardless, I'm a better person for getting all those creative skills. and maybe it can be appealing to a girl some day..

I have 8 and 10 year old boys. I used to only play when they were asleep, now they play games with me. The first few years sucked, but it got better when they were old enough to understand games. Not sure how the 10 year old heard about Elden Ring, but he keeps asking me to buy it on his Steam account. Should I do it? Not really worried about violence or content, I just don't want him dumping thag much time into a game because I know he'll try to 100% it.

I'm fine with getting a wife at some point (if any woman will have my autistic ass) but I feel like having children in this fucked up world is just cruel.

Nah, no thanks, that'd just be heartbreaking.

>>729436818
The world is simply unwilling to exterminate the unworthy and also unwilling to stop them from moving out of the places that they've made garbage with their presence, so your act of procreating is subjecting your offspring to hardship and a depressing future where everything is doomed. Your refusal to engage in the futile act of competing against the human hospital bacteria -esque contagion that is the third world enabled by the first world's inventions is reducing the suffering of the last generations of true man by hastening the world's demise, and ensuring the lack of suffering of your own child.
Put your money where your mouth is. For every one child you produce, murder one hundred of the enemy bloodline. That's the only way your act of procreation can be morally good.
A hundred thousand years from now when the disease has decimated itself due to simply lacking the capabilities of building or inventing something to support its degenerate self, a new species will evolve out of the few that select for superior qualities in the harshness of the apocalypse that their ancestors created. And they will curse the generations of the dark age that wasted a significant portion of the Sun's lifespan on unacceptable human existence on this world.
