>uncs had to read the equivalent of war and peace to complete a level
>a couple of sentences is an entire novel to underage alphaggotsIs it actually over for the new generation? Has tiktok won?
>>736193982images are much better and faster at conveying information, language is just an artificial crutch we have to rely on to pretend like we are not beasts driven only by primitive instinctsget with the times unc, nobody's reading a whole ass yapology when there are countless video guides straight to the point
>>736193715We learned what the ctrl+f function was pretty quick
>>736193715Yeah it's called being able to read
>>736193715I still prefer reading over watching some YouTube video of some annoying fucker explaining anything.
bros, the future is going to be FUCKED because zoomers literally cannot read and they have the shortest average attention span yet
>>736193715Atleast uncs actually completed levels.
>>736194578>can't read words>can't read clocks>can't pay attentionWhat CAN they do?
>>736194345lmfao bro you just conveyed that whole ass point with all these words he's done you, m9
>>736194746not speaking for everyone but uhhh consuming stuff I guess>>736194771I would have posted a frog image making fun of him and he would have called me a retard thus conceding
>>736194746Buy loot boxes and battle passes.
>>736193715I actually was on GameFAQ's the other day looking into some old Conflict: Desert Storm games I used to play and was shocked to find that I couldn't actually find any of the old text walkthroughsdid they get rid of them?was it just a bad game series for them?some of my warmest gamer memories was printing out entire guides with blissful ignorance as to the value of printer ink
>>736194746tiktok dances
>>736193715They use codes you can ctrl+f to skip to a particular section, unless you're following a walkthrough there's no need to read an entire document
>>736193715It was much quicker than having to suffer through a youtube video
>>736193715I remember writing down Ocarina of Time secrets by hand onto paper because my parents wouldn’t let me print the guides out.
>>736194981>timestamps>ai transcript and summarybruh really?
>>736193715>it's 2008>been reading latest naruto scans translated by fans>want to play Narutimate Accel 2 on ps2 but it's only out in japan>burn dvd >gamefaq guide walks you through all the menus and everything>eventually play the whole game and unlock every characterfucking kino
>>736194901>did they get rid of them?Nah they still exist, it's possible that they were taken down for some other reason.>tfw I just double-checked a couple of the old Breath of Fire II FAQs I used to read for fun
>>736193715>want information of a game>its now scattered across reddit posts and gated by secret discords>youtube is filled with basic gameplay tips and rushed on release information to farm views while the game is still newjust fucking why
>>736195132oh sweethonestly got confused by the new layout and sectionswas just in kind of a Conflict: Vietnam mood so I was googling the series and ended up therefor me it was Digimon World
>>736194345STFU nigger. Your kind is used to till the fields, and nothing more
>>736195105Yes really, a well-written walkthrough is much easier to look through than a damn video transcript.
>>736195263@grok why is unc crashing out fr
>>736195263BASED
>>736193715>Needing a guide to clear levelsRetard detected
>>736193715if you know what this is, then you're an "unc". Stop larping as a fucking nigger.
>>736195220Yeah I haven't looked at the FAQ sections in ages myself, so it took me a hot second to realize what I was looking at.
>>736193715>Struggling with boss>Look up FAQ>"This boss is so easy. A retarded baby with no hands could beat this thing. Just hit it till it dies! NEXT"
>>736194746listen to rap music and then wonder why they're so stressed out all the time
>spend hours in a game looking for a path leading to area B but can't find it>look up FAQ>skips straight from area A to area B with no clarification, as if it's so easy to find that it's not even worth mentioning
>>736194345>pretend like we are not beasts driven only by primitive instinctsWhy are you on 4chan? Do you need it to feed or reproduce?
>>736193715Good bait.8/10
>UNC Go back
>>736193715>get lost>open gamefaqs guide>follow directions, still lost>eventually make it through the roadblock>re-read guide, realize the author is a fucking idiot and got his cardinal directions mixed up for east and west
>>736194498This. If I'm looking something up for a game, and I can't find a text guide, I just suck it up and try to do it myself.
>>736193715
boomers pretending like it wasnt a chore but for whatever reason faqs died out and video playthroughs are way more popular
>>736195161Everything went to hell when gamefaqs dabled in the wiki & youtube videos scene. That shit was scrapped, but the damage was never undone.
>>736198579I remember being stuck for ages trying to find some battery for Sasuke in Mystical Ninja for N64 and the guide was no fucking help. I reread and reread and could not figure it out. Spent days wandering around and didn't know what this guy was talking about. Turns out he forgot a step or some shit and had to do something first to get the area where the battery was. I remember calling a fucking Nintendo hotline with my mom trying to figure this shit out.
>>736194345>when there are countless video guides straight to the pointAh yes, those 'videos.'>WHAT'S HAPPENING FELLAS IT'S ME GAME_GOD_FUPA_DIVER4489 AND TODAY I'M GONNA BE TELLING YOU HOW TO DEFEAT THE EVIL KNIGHT>BUT FIRST...

>passionate amateur sharing their hobbyto>annoying grifter trying to monetize your ad clicks
I'm a zoomer and I still use gamefaqs because I can ctrl-F for the information I need.
>>736199350>ctrl-Fyou're a pseudoboomer. phones don't have a ctrl key
>>736199261>text is easy to search through via Ctrl+F, making it so you can get to exactly what you're looking for with little-to-no fuss most of the time>lots of text-based walkthroughs showed extra charm and character via ASCII art, formatting, and section headers>videos are often disorganized, and may lack timestamps for the relevant part>most are made to fit the algorithm
>>736193715Text guides are actually preferable because at least you don't get the audiovisual part spoiled
>>736193715Monster Hunter guides and general discussion were fucking top tier.I don't think I could have beaten MHFU without it.
>>736194345your fucking video guides require me to search through the video for the retard yapping to get to the point.a bullet list of words takes me seconds to scan through.
>>736194345TRVTH NVKThe HTML guides on gamefaqs with images and such are always better than uncslop text, sorry nostalgiatrannies
