I witnessed game stories get better, voice acting become mainstream, and if I do something crazy in a game I can share it with the world.

Zoomers were the last generation of gamers. Gen Alpha doesn’t get invested in video games. They use Roblox and Minecraft as digital playgrounds because their parents won’t let them leave the house. If a game doesn’t hook them in five minutes, they drop it. If they get stuck without clear directions, they drop it. Zoomers and millennials didn’t have unlimited entertainment options so we grew attached to our favorite games.

I don't think you understand, Millenials are genuinely in denial about what year it is. It's not that they can't tell the difference between gens, it's that in their mind 'zoomers' are teenagers and gen alpha are toddlers. For the rest of their lives, all teenagers will be zoomers.

Zoomers and gen alpha will have it even worse when their time comes and knowing zoomers theres probably going to be mass suicides once they realize how short life really is. By the time you hit 30+ you're expected to be an invisible background extra until you die.

That'd be zoomgroids. They literally want everything handed to them and won't actually work for it. Always searching for a guru to tell them what to think. They want to be muscular but are too effeminate to lift weights so they take steroids. They have shit hairlines? Go to Mexico to get a transplant. Can't get bitches? Join incel forums and complain. That's the gist of the zoomer existence.

I don't think this is comparable to someone born in the 1930's complaining about how Led Zeppelin is corrupting the youth and leading to Satan. Everything is getting worse. Gen Z and Gen A flock back to past works because they have zero cultural milestones. If you were born in the 90's you had a shitton of media from your era that was good. Those generations have none of that unless you count Fortnite and Avengers 10: Revenge of Purpleman

Arcade games werent called "coin eaters" for nothing. A lot of arcade games back then were made for consumer cattle to do exactly what you just claimed didn't exist. I lived it and remember it. The difference is there was more care put into those games at the time with entire dev teams working diligently to make those cattle games. The other thing is what was a cattle game then is significantly more soulful than those that come now.

You have a goldfish memory, or more likely you were a kid not too long ago and weren't aware of things. The same thing happened with the "millennial" descriptor about a decade ago. It kept getting used to describe floss-dancing, Fortnite-playing zoombas, and then millennials would point out they were in their 20s and 30s at the time. Took a while for the youth connotation to transfer from "millennial" to "zoomer."
As zoomer get older, people will adapt. I'm already seeing awareness of "gen alpha" and their youth culture.
Kinda sick of all these made-up terms though. I didn't choose to become a millennial. And as a "young" millennial, I actually went to school with zoomers. Was weird when I found out in college that I supposedly had more in common with my cousin, who was 10 years older than me and used to babysit me.

nta. The difference between Millennials and Zoomers is how old they were when the War on Terror began and if they were aware enough to notice anything different between the time before that and the time after. Also Zoomers don’t have any memory of there being no internet whereas Millennials didn’t have internet when they were young children. Genxers didn’t have internet until they were at least teenagers for the most part and Genxers remember living during the Cold War era, Millennials don’t.
People always fuck around with birth years and shit but basically if you’re in the vast majority of the west those are the key points where there’s a generational shift and putting a specific year on it isn’t going to be entirely accurate because all children are different and some are more aware than others so there’s always this sort of cusp few years between the generations

This is totally arbitrary, though. I was in 3rd grade when 9/11 happened, and my cousin was a working adult with her own apartment, but we're lumped into the same category. We obviously didn't process it in the same way, and that's why generations are not to be taken too seriously. It's demographic info for the government and corporations, not an identity to hold onto.
Even your point about internet is off, because I used it heavily from the time I was 6. Sure, I remember the dotcom era and the ascendancy of AOL, but we did have internet almost as soon as solid memory formation started for me. And I imagine that only gets more true if you're talking about the really young millennials, the ones born in 94-96.
There's never any satisfying way of dealing with the edge cases and it ultimately feels imposed upon you, rather than being real identity.

Alphies became conscious at a point in time where quality wise all the established series were spiritually dead already and nothing new and worthwhile had taken their place.

Zoomers had enshittified products like Sonic Heroes, Halo 3 & Reach, Dead Or Alive 5, and Pokemon Black & White, but they remain to this day proud of the trash they grew up with because it had just enough of a tinge of goodness to be mistaken as overall good.

Whereas would-be Alphie games like Dead Or Alive 6 and Pokemon Sword & Shield are unambiguously bad and so don't get attachments.

Man, I remember being so disappointed in Sonic Heroes, coming from Adventure 2 Battle.

Got that trash for my birthday, too.
>>
>>738005078
This idea that the 30s is the death of personhood is a recent one which stems from the lack of transfer of societal responsibility and authority to 30 year olds as fully-fledged adults in recent decades. The best you get is being mid-management in retail, and only some get that. That's not enough to make the feeling of extended adolescence viscerally evaporate, so one is left feeling like a manchild who can no longer socially acceptably be one, due to now being "too old" for that.

the dates "keep shifting" because the influx of data has allowed continuous honing, to now where the majority of the debate centers around whether zoomers start at 1997 fullstop or somewhere in a point during 1996. It doesn't matter if prior ignorance placed the start date at 2001 or 2003.

City Folk is Wee World on the big screen.

(Plus all the late millennial and early zoomer youtuber-streamers shamelessly use tracks from City Folk's OST as background music in clips and shit)

This stupid ass meme that Wild World but better is worse is perpetuated by dumbasses that think playing a pixelated tiny game is superior because they could do it on the shortbus to and from school

City Folk is awesome and the arguable peak of the series, and a cultural touchstone, no matter how much vocal minority contrarians will try to argue otherwise

In the case of vidya, a lot of this is just waiting for corporations to make stuff like they did in le good old days when those corporations have no affection for any human beings. Reactive rather than active behavior.

You think this because you as a zoomer haven't been around enough Gen Xers and Baby Boomers to have been able to psychoanalyze them. In reality, they too suffer from arrested development, and there hasn't been a generation of proper adults since after Silent Gen.

I agree with this and I agree that they've got similar problems, both of which I can blame on boomers. They did a shitty job raising millennials and they absolutely refuse to give up the reins of society - politicians, CEOs, etc.) to anybody younger. They're finally dying but Xers are now too old and it's going directly to millennials. They really never had a chance to take control of anything, I'm not sure whether to rename them the Invisible or Impotent generation. They didn't even have a profound cultural impact, it just went straight from boomers to millennials there too.
I think to a certain extent, everybody is living in the world they were 25 in for their entire lives.

I've noticed zoomers are very bad at holding down umglamorous jobs, because they somehow think that low-tier jobs used to and should be sufficient to maintain their existence, so therefore they are entitled to put in below-minimum effort and still keep that job—all because they have very short-sighted perspectives of the connection between present efforts and future rewards, as well as the necessary element of independent risk-taking in actually getting to where you want to go when you have no other support systems available to you.

They are by and large weak-willed and defeatist, for no actual good reason either.

I speak for both Millennials and Zoomers when I say

Bare Minimum Survival: At $20 an hour (roughly $41,600/year before taxes), your take-home pay is approximately $2,880 per month. National average basic expenses for a single person in 2026 are estimated at $2,900 per month.
This covers basics like rent ($1,500), groceries ($400), and a used car ($300), but leaves zero room for savings, debt, or emergencies.
The lone survival threshold in California is $30.58 an hour.
At $31.00 an hour, you might be able to afford a video game after a few months of working.
But hey, we should totally launch another 15,000 4 million dollar rockets at Iranian rubble, dirt and rock instead of spending that money on Americans.
Or give Israel another $34 billion.
We Americans totally don't need it. We're fine. This is fine.

This is true. I'm a boomer and anyone younger than probably their late 20s now doesnt really give a shit about video games in general. They just care about their 1 or 2 games that they play for 1000s of hours like Roblox. A current day teenager or child or 20 year old doesnt give a fuck about games like Resident Evil or Zelda or whatever. They dont care about the big AAA single player games. That part of the industry is fully held up by millennials and gen x and the oldest zoomers. It will be gone in a decade.

If you don't remember Y2K, you're a zoomer. The turn of the millennium is the defining event of the millennial generation, hence the name. And no, "zillennials" are not a thing, that's zoomer cope from 1996-1999 zoomies.

if you have ever been called a zoomer on here it's because you displayed some horrendous dogshit taste or insulted some decrepit boomer sacred cow like classic sonic

in regular discourse, as a mid-1990s born, you should almost never have gotten labeled a zoomer

Minecraft is kind of an outlier among zoomer games, it's got primitive graphics and full gameplay focus, no matter how much macroshaft wants to monetize it.

What defines generations is psychological orientation. A late millennial is spiritually and mentally more in tune with an early 80s boomer than they are with an early zoomie born even just a year after themselves.

Because it was the game mid-to-late zoomers played when they were children without any real conception of what were "acceptable" graphics or not.

Even today, your thesis is undermined by the existence of Roblox gen alphas.

Millennials are weird

Pre-Internet Millennials lean towards Gen X. (1980 - 1990)
Post-Internet Millennials lean towards Gen Z. (1990 - 1995)

Minecraft is way more of a cultural touchstone akin to Pokemon for zoomers than it is millennials, in my view. Same as how millennials *could* have played Undertale and Five Nights At Freddies en masse, but in reality, those are worshipped by and discussed by zoomers.
>>
>>738018335
The only one of those games I would say is exclusively zoomer is FNaF. Minecraft and Undertale both had large millennial followings, especially Undertale. I've never met a single zoomer who likes that one.

>>738018125
I disagree with this.

1945–1959 Baby Boomer
1960–1979 Gen X
1980–1996 Millennial
1996–~2009 Zoomer

I do. My micro-generation grew up with 2000s "Emo" and Goth music, early 2010s millennial whimsy, skinny jeans, and the general deep-seated introspective angst and high-minded elitism which inspired these cultural touchstones, buying into them hook line and sinker.

In contrast, I've seen zoomers despise and loathe elitism, make a joke out of everything, refuse to study anything seriously, prefer the group conformity over the individual self-expression, and all manner of clear-cut psycho-cultural differences which this site across the board has been commenting upon for close to a decade now.

Not to mention me not giving any shits about zoomer anime like Attack On Titan and My Hero Academia and the ironic weeb culture that comes with that. I grew up conceiving of myself and others as "otaku".

They had the concept of what a game can look like. Crysis predates Minecraft by 5 years, and by the time Minecraft got up to snuff, things could actually run Crysis. Popular games like Overwatch and Fortnite then scaled a bit back to expand their playerbase to potatomongers, but they were still way higher fidelity than the creative outliers like Minecraft and Roblox.

Oh forgot to mention too, nerds and gamers at my era which i grew up with, were not thge barney kids who puts nintendo or snoy shit on a pedestal
they all were drunk fucks who listened to pantera, og maiden albuns, and went to lan events to get wasted playing quake 1, Quake 2, Battlezone, rts vidya and eat proper bbq and the nastiest rebounds of pizza while playing vidya and cleaning up to go to college or high school at monday morning.

Most of the trolls remorse fags you see nowadays who trooned out or became full blown hypocrites, were brainwashed by their wives or had the unfortunate case of having a daughter instead of a man, and both wife and daughter are the type of people responsible for messy divorces or unhappy marriages that leads to shit like Spider-Man: One More Day/Brand New Day or DC COmics Identity Crisis, or in Blizzard's case the complete removal of soul.

Yeah, bit rough. But Chrono Nigger isn't the best example. Nor MM.
Kids and wannabe kids have a lot to choose from now. Have all the past as well. It doesn't seem that way somewhoe though. Maybe because the hype or feeling of old games isn't felt. People are spoiled.
