But anon, looking at the board it's very clearly rpgs that ruined video games. Furthermore, I would argue that streaming isn't inherently bad, and video games that put entertainment over the health of the player can be good. MvC2 exists because it looks cool to play, despite utterly destroying the user. Now fighting games are boring, but made with the user's health in mind. In my opinion streaming is that now, low effort games for lazy digital baby sitters. They should be made to play extremely difficult games for the entertainment of the retarded children they're looking after. The world needs less asmongolds degenmaxxing.

There is nothing preventing you from simply ignoring all the things you dislike and just playing the games you do like.

Well, wokeness is strictly an American invention. The idea of injecting "proper representation" into media and the belief that media must be "moral" to consume is strictly American puritanical. For how "progressive" Europeans are, they did not have that mindset at all until they imported it from the US.

American devs are also the ones that have put us in the current boom-bust cycle of extremely long development periods resulting in outdated flops, games-as-service, lootboxes, etc

Bongland and the inability to critisize middle eastern immigrants disagrees. Furthermore it's an American company issue that Larry Fink/Blackrock is forcing all his affiliates and derrivative properties to care about ESG, that is and was never organic to the industry. Notice when Trump came back into office how many companies were quick to say fuck pride month and fuck dei? As retarded as Trump and DOGE were we can agree that Blackrock is to blame for the forced coersion of western culture to bend to the knee of diversity. If it weren't for Blackrock and the ESG scores there would be way less womyn ornrace relations involved in game production.

BlackRock and Larry Fink are American. Also BlackRock did not invent social justice, that was very much an American college phenomenon.

I remember a time when normalfaggot necessarily didn't mean "normal people" but faggots who desperately want to be normal. So they constantly bitch about nerd shit in spaces predominately occupied by nerds just so they can feel superior in some retarded way. Now we have a version of normalfaggot who are youtubers, acting as talking heads for nerd shit despite having a very surface-level understanding of videogames and anime. And when you correct them or try to add into the conversation, they respond with "lol obsessed, touch grass". They rather play pretend rather than have some form of knowledge or hone their craft properly.

These people are mostly zoomers and millennials. Gen X are sometimes based but others will cave into political correct think like trannyshit or putting trigger warnings in their forums.

>>729669475
Normalfag definition here shifts with the wind. I remember when playing DA:O was normalfaggotry and you had to like Arcanum and FO2 or some shit to be legit. We see it again now with BG3 where the gameplay is clearly niche and complex but because it has some Gen Z writing it's considered a normalfag game by deluded /v/tards, while DA:O is now remembered fondly.

Playing anything other than chess alone is niche enough to disqualify you as a normalfag (and also being too good at chess as well).

Its not an American invention, its a Corporate invention. America had already been through the sexual revolution by the time 'wokeness' appeared on the scene. Growing up in the 90s was great, women didn't hate their men yet and there was no need of 'proper' representation.

Wokeness happened when a generation of young men marched on Wall Street in 2008 and demanded the banks and the Stonk Marketeers give us back control of the US Dollar and its distribution. Identity politics was a way for the elites to make sure we never again unified to try and take control of anything.

The push for normalfags started in the 90's with Sega of America and had really taken off by the time Sony rolled around with the PS1.

I cannot fucking stand how most modern internet discourse is so absurdly censored and faggy. Everyone is a passive aggressive piece of shit humorless turbofag who will act like you just raped their mother with a cheese grater if you say le heckin no no words that used to be screamed 500 times per round of TF2. Forums for nerd hobbies like vidya and D&D are now invested with easily offended control freak dangerhairs that engage with nothing but the gayest, most surface level garbage modern portrayals of old franchises but will shout you down in an instant if you challenge them on their blatant poser behavior. If you showcase any genuine knowledge or interest on anything older or at a less shallow level, you are immediately mocked relentlessly by these same parasitic faggots that have openly invaded what used to be your home. It's infuriating.

Ok here, let me give a specific example of how gay and shit the modern internet is. I google "sonic x shadow generations censorship", and the first result I get is a reddit link framing the outrage of Rouge's tits being nerfed as unreasonable and silly, "tough grass" shit.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SonicTheHedgehog/comments/1gaemnb/a_sane_discussion_of_rouges_design/

A thread of people mocking anyone for caring about this shit as sexless incels, with their custom reddit avatars they paid real life money to alter when shit like that used to be completely free on every dogshit forum under the sun, and the subreddit's logo is a fucking LGBTBBQ faggot flag for no reason. This is the modern internet. Something gay and censored that would've been unthinkable in the past and would've had nerds screaming for blood, torches and pitchforks at hand, is now not only accepted but rabidly defended by complete fucking faggots who hate tits and ass.

You have Sociopath and Psychotic backwards. Sociopaths are the immoral unemotional ones and fit in where you have psychopaths on the chart as most CEOs are very likely sociopaths.

This is why I absolutely refuse to give any serious thought or conversation to anyone defending or even attempting to talk about trannies. They are a complete meme fad pushed by the media that were barely spoken about beyond being ridiculous joke characters sometimes appearing in movies for the pure absurdity of it.

sociopath, psychopath, and anti social personality disorder are all names for the exact same symptom profile. the pdocs who write the dsm decided to change the name mostly for political reasons as whichever name that set of symptoms has will develop a stigma in short order.

How do you even stave off the eventual future of smartphones, internet accessibility and nerd franchises becoming more mainstream and less likely to gatekeep? Lets say you somehow macguffin time-travel your way to 2002 and you have the chance to make sure the iphone doesn't release or internet forums remain hostile or social media never gets created. How long can that REALLY last? Someone inevitably is going to homogenize the hobbies and mediums we care about at some point in history, so do you just make an effort to stifle all technological advancement in those areas? Sad as it sounds it just seems like the logical conclusion of the society we were heading towards, even videogames and anime were becoming mainstream in the 90's.

>where u can still find something with old fag feel but with modern tech
Vintage Story if u want block placing but despise mc. Arc Riders for extraction shooter future london sim. Finals for pvp. Forza series for car racing. Palworld for monster tamer with a twist. U can even do some UE 5 tutorials to make your own shitty game. But here u are doomposting because we found ourself at the end of an astronomic age so satan and co went mask off a couple of times last decade.

This is wanted to say. He's only confused because he calls the old people /v/ and also gives that name to the new people. It's two entirely different groups of people.

Have you considered for a minute that a buch of eternal weebs posting on a weeb website wouldn't naturally move to the latest asian trend which is by default gacha? Hate it or love it it is what it is and trying to squeal about it all day won't change anything beyond making them double down as you are seeing with the hors game.

>>729689128
>>729689504
The best way to do so is make an effort of separating the old internet from the new internet, im not sure how you could achieve this but if the eventual Iphone and facebook faggotry were locked in on a separate environment all the cancer (reddit, twitter, tumblr, youtube, etc...) would eventually follow them and those who wanted peace and quiet would stay behind on the old net.
