I ask this because it seems that alot of older people have an irrational hatred of gaming, even today. On normie News sites, whenever I see vidya being brought up, all of the commenters start shitting on themWhat's your experience with this, anons? I guess that "core" games who actually play single player console style Games are a very small portion of the population. There's probably only about a 100 million or so of us.
>>736768834Its 'for kids' not in the sense that its all 9+ carebare shit, but because its a fucking waste of time and you're a (man)child if you devote your life to it.Hope that helps.Also learn the proper spelling of 'a lot' you troglodyte.
Games are for kids, but I am very much touching my inner child.
>>736768941>but because its a fucking waste of time and you're a (man)child if you devote your life to it.>Hope that helps.Something being a waste of time doesn't automatically mean that it's for kids though. That doesn't make much sense.
>>736769074Uh huh, sure buddy.
>>736769161>No argumentLol
>>736769074>T. eternal manchild
>>736768834I want to see the girl in pic rel with a huge ass (face stays the same)
>>736768834Games are for all people and from any age bracket that can handle them
let me guess, you want me to read a book
>>736768834The majority of women still think this
>>736769418>ad hominem
>>736768941Ah yes, shitposting on a web forum is much betterYou are so mature for your age!
>>736769797Old boomer men tend to be more vocal about it though
boomers hate younger gens having fun. To a boomer you must wage slave to fuel the boomer economy
>>736768834This is the only thing preventing games from degenerating even further.
>>736768834I think that's really only a sentiment with the most permanently shallow surface-level of normies. Like practically floating over the water, instead of in it. Vidya has been around in its recognized form now for 46 years. There is nothing odd at all for people pushing 60 being lifers at this point.
>>736768834The games you play are for kids, hope that helps
>>736769419 here, my post also applies to >>736770849
>>736768834im 36i worked the whole week and now im home.it's 23:58 and i was planning to play arc raiders but guess what?i feel like sleeping so bad :(
>>736770872Nemu isn't for lewd
>>736770873LolSucks to be you. I work from home and can play Vidya whenever I wantMy problem is lack of stamina. I can't play for longer than 2 hours and get bored quickly
>>736768834the sentiment has dropped off a lot. some people still do but most people recognize it's just one of many hobbies out there now.
>>736768834>because it seems that alot of older people have an irrational hatred of gaming, even todayI don't get it, those "older" people grew up playing video-games, they're earlier millennials which means their childhood are from the 90s when consoles were already a household appliances. Even gen-xers who're in their fifties grew up with arcades, so that statement makes no sense.
>>736770919Not till she has a fat plappable ass that is
>>736768834>I ask this because it seems that alot of older people have an irrational hatred of gaming, even today.I guess the first thing you need to do is define "older people", because I doubt the majority of people 45 and under hate video games and think they're only for kids. That or you're retarded and just trolling, I can't tell anymore.
>>736771019you retarded zoomer, they mean boomers. Millenials arent older people. Esl zoomer faggot learn context
>>736768941It's no different from being passionate about film or literature. I will always respect someone who is a total obsessive nerd about what they love far more than some tepid normalfag afraid to genuinely engage with anything for fear of being "cringe" or "childish".
>>736771019>>736771235Older boomers always hated gamesAs for why some younger people might hate them, the older boomers' social pressure and old stereotypes simply rubbed off on them. Also, not everyone back then played games either. I've also noticed that some ex addicts start hating games and blaming them for their problems. And basically project their addiction onto everyone.
>>736768941Bro you dont get to type this assetry and chastise someone for a typoKill yourself you drop out do nothing know nothing piece of shit
>>736771815Comparing apples and orange prolapses. Literature encompasses the totality of western thought, video games are bing-bing wahoo skinner boxes.
>>736772029Sorry bro, I guess like, 'a lot vs alot', is like, taught in elementary school, or something, bro.
>>736772189No, you are simply pretentious.
>>736772189Video games contain as much depth as literature.
>>736772287most of the time they don't. And it's fine!
>>736772287My junkie neighbour once had a moment of clarity and gave me one of the most profound statements I've ever heard. But then he went right back to shitting on my porch the next day. Get what I'm saying?
>>736768834>normie news sites100% of the comments on those are bots
>>736768941>a fucking waste of timeas are all leisure activities if you're not making money or having children as a result of your actions, they are not considered a good use of your time
the moment it hit me that boomers are wrong about this was when i realised the average boomer spends at least 6 hrs every day watching tv.This applies to boomers working too, thed get home from work start watching tv and watch it for 6 hrs.Then theyd argue a person playing games for 2 hrs a day was wasting their time and being lazy etcBoomers have always been delusional full of shit scumbags.
>>736772574I understand your implication, but the meaning behind it is so retarded I'm going to pretend I don't for your sake.
>>736773276:)
>>736772834This. All fictional entertainment is ultimately a waste of time. Video Games are no different.But obviously boomers are hypocrites.Or they will make a false comparison to productive hobbies like art, when video games are not in the same category.The correct comparison would be to things like movies, tv shows, etc.
>>736773519haha ur a 'not' a 'but't haha
>>736773569Huh?
>>736768941This is a bot thread likely and just shit in general but I'm curious about something. I think in essence I agree with you but what should an adult life look like? Yeah you shouldn't play them 8 hours every day but how should you divide your time up exactly? I can see working most of the day, serving other people, helping them make their lives better, then doing things in your free time that better yourself individually. So in your free time, reading the Bible or a worthwhile book, learning music or art, or a practical skill like electronics would be the the ideal use of that time. Now, in this equation, does entertainment or anything bordering on it definitively provide zero value to anyone's life? Because I don't see how it can't, and that's ignoring the question of where video games are on the spectrum of braindead selfish dopamine to an interesting human creation.
>>736768941Fictional Tv shows and movies are also a waste of time but I never see boomers complain about those. You're just a bunch of hypocrites.
>>736768941As if browsing 4chan or scrolling xitter/tiktok for hours isn't a waste of time
>>736774059but my egirlfriend is on tiktok soo
>>736773838The people who call video games a waste of time are fine watching Netflix or sports all day. They only make this argument because they dislike video games, not for any other reason. It's post hoc rationalization for their emotions.
I don't give a fuck, die in the ground anyway you shitlords
>>736768941Why do you never say this to sportsball fans? Fans, not players.
>>736768941Why did you leave the "Whore" part of your name out, you rage baiting attention whore
>>736768941>waste timeSuch a human concept, time is the same for any activity regardless of what you do, time will still be consumed and you will never get more time, do with your time what you want, because when the time is up everything you ever did will be reduced to nothing.>but what about my legacyYour legacy means naught, at the end of time everything will be gone including your legacy.
