If normies slowly get priced out of gaming, will piracy go on the rise? Or will AAA studios die first?
Nah, zoomoids and younger are too dumb for piracy.
>>738783192AAA studios are funded by blackrock and palantir, they don't need to sell any copies
>>738783372I want to see sauce and names for this
>>738783281Where did this "zoomers are to dumb for piracy" meme even come from? My dad taught me how to torrent when I was a fucking child.
>>738783743Just milennial cope, don't worry about him.>t. A milennial
>>738783192Sauce on the image?
>>738783192>>738783721Same Person. Common thread premise.>Make vaguely on-topic thread.>Post off-topic OP image.>OP samefags pretending to be other Anon asking about OP image a way to make the thread about the OP image instead.
>>738783192source OP?
>>738783876are you retarded, he's asking for sauce and name for this >AAA studios are funded by blackrock and palantir, they don't need to sell any copiesstatement
>>738783743probably some bald millennial retard jerking off pretending they werent the faggiest homo generation out of everyone
>>738783954Fuck off OP.

i hope ai take over the world and know everything about porn
>>738783743It came from observing zoomers.
>>738784824knowing millenials, you're probably observing israel more than zoomers.>>738784683bait article
>>738784701What did he mean by and intend for this?
>>738783192not posting source on OP is criminal, the people need
>>738785256What, you jerk off to clowns or somethin big bro?
piracy is killing single player games and self-hosted servers.single player games will still exist but multiplayer is where the money is (mainly due to dark patterns and greed).you can't pirate a multiplayer game hosted only by devs because the server can attest your ownership using the steam / etc account.
>>738785517>piracy is killing single player gamesI keep hearing this but the numbers just don't reflect it. RE9 just sold 7 million copies while priced the same as Elden Ring at like 5% of its gameplay time.
>>738785360Yes
>>738783372Soooo what? Are you saying AAA studios only exist for money laundering? That's crazy...
>>738783372Those investment groups are, in turn, funded by your tax dollars.>>738783721Gee, I wonder why all those overfunded sequels to successful titles back in the late 2000s coincided with all those bailouts. >>738785517If your game can't benefit from free marketing, then it is either a bad game or you are bad at selling it.At most piracy needs a mild speedbump before it stops having any impact on sales to a target demographic, like fake downloads or mild DRM.>>738785805That's because it's just an excuse that is wheeled out to justify a worse product.
>>738783743I think older zoomers like me (I'm 25) know how to pirate, but younger ones don't. My 17 year old younger brother doesn't pirate, for example.
>>738787387Apple/nintendo generations in general dont in know how pcs work and think torrenting is some dangerous criminal act.
>>738787387As a older zoomer same and i'm like 28Pic is pretty much how I feel that 10 years gaps when it come to learning how to use a computer before the youngest decided to stick to phones only.
>>738787507>>738787650Tbf torrenting is just really inconvenient and ultimately ephemeral, the jews just made streaming far too convenient to pass up on that $10 a month or whagever. Even I eventually came around, and yes I still feel gross.
>>738788535couldnt be you. i wanna have my media as files and not be dependant on internet. also paying monthly fees for media is slave like behaviour imo. pls sub and like and post.
>>738783743most zoomers don't know a fucking thing about using a computer. phones took their place in their lives.yes, some zoomers can, but the point is that they represent a regression in ability over time. a smaller proportion of the zoomer population is computer literate as a result of phoneification.
>>738788720After years of losing multiple hard drives to manufactured obselecense, I gave up. I got tired. I may be a slave, but I am happy.>You vil own nasing und you vil-Yeah. Yeah, I guess so. You won, Klaus.
>>738785256you're a big boy, you know how to browse a booru
>>738785360the clussy
The outpricing is happening at a hardware level. You won't have anything to play your pirated stuff on.
>>738784683>future doctors and engineers (tm) don't know anything about compsciwoooooow this must be true for the le whole generation
>>738789142What happens after that?
>>738783281I guarantee too you most zoomies know how about piracy and emulation. I know this because they never shut up about that fact
>>738783192Hard to pirate if you can’t even afford a computer
>>738789736Subscription computing with your credit being decided how long did you spend as a matrix style bio battery for the AI.
Where's the source? Didn't even read OP's blabbering.
>>738790646Bro that's a clown. They're for like, birthday parties and circuses, not nakadashis.
>>738790372Isn't google doing that already? "Stevia" or whatever the fuck it's called?
>>738784683>people don't know what things they haven't been taught areEGADS!Same retards here were surprised when elementary school aged children couldn't read analog clocks anymore.
>>738791537I mean, Greeks threw a shitfit when the kids starting writing stuff down instead of relying entirely on their memories. This happens with every shift in culture and tech.
>>738783192Normgroids will piss all their money away on gambling and drugs. EVERYTHING will become gachashit.
>>738792493Jesus Christ, use less buzzwords
people will just play F2P.
>>738792658They do this already
>>738791537I wasn't "taught" what files and folders were, I figured it out myself by modding shit as a kid in counter-strikeZoomers don't know because they dont use computers, phones are the fucking enemy
>>738785360For me it's simply the huge tanned bimbo tits and the spiked collar
>>738793003>spiked collarOh if only you'd see the rest haha she's spiky in all the right places.
>>738793090spikes covering her nipples right? ...right?
>>738793227You got it
>>738793283The spike on her crotch is extremely based btw
>>738793370Thank you, it was the most inspired choice on my part.
>>738783192normies have been conditioned since the height of consumerism (the 50s) to pay no matter how high the price. Normies will never get priced out, I know middle class retards that waste shit tons of money on mediocre cars then are stuck paying it off forever. Video games could be 200$ and normies would still buy them and honestly I'm surprised companies aren't raising prices to that extreme already considering just how soulless, repugnant, braindead and worthy of brutal death the average normie is
>>738783192>If normies slowly get priced out of gamingNever going to happen.Free to play is still the most profitable business model. All corpos will just force their devs to swap to that.
>>738793598I meant inception of consumerism, not height of
>>738793283Is the crotch spike necessary? Just make it a cock
>>738793923'fraid of getting poked?
>>738783743Lived experienceEmulation and romsites are beyond most of the ones I talk to at my local. Let alone actual sidestepping of DRM
>>738783281dumbest generation confirmed by the mediapursuit of knowledge is what differenciates the civilized from the savage
>>738794214Zoomies already have life figured out better than faillennials ever have
>>738791351Stadia was designed to fail because it was google's pet project and not backed by the powers that be. The AI/subscription thing is different.
>>738783743From retards. They'll say zoomers don't know how to pirate, and the next moment they'll say zoomers emulate too much.>inb4 they're not the same peopleThey are.
if you're too poor to play video games, shouldn't you be doing something else with your time?
>>738795128Like what
>>738783192sauce on OPs character?
>>738794214>"The media told me what to think!!"haha millenigoys really are fucked.
>>738795617nvm. is this a commission that u drew?>>738793283
>>738795617Here >>738793283Yeah it's my OC
>>738795724I designed her, but the art is a commission
>>738795791>>738795740who drew the art? reminds me of those old dc cartoons
>>738793283>>738795740Breeding sex with Anon's OC!
>>738795859Artist's name is Ghostless, and yeah he basically has the DCAU Bruce Timm art style pat down
>>738795859pls respond i just wanna follow him
>>738795740God tier taste, man.
>>738795907Thanks, more clownies need nakadashing
>>738795992>>738795983thx
>>738788535Just get stremio with torrentio and drebrid
>>738793283Make the boobs sag/more teardrop shaped
>>738796419 do that on your own art
>>738796007Much appreciated bro>>738796419Noted
>>738796505NTA I don't like saggy tits but a little bit goes a long way to communicate weight and texture
>>738796621i see your point about weight, but texture comes from rendering and how you depict light/shadow interacting with the surface
>>738793283Meh, still nipplefucking her.
>>738796771For sure, yes, maybe "texture" wasn't the right word, more like "tactile feel". Like, IRL you'd be surprised how much tits can vary in touch, some are super soft, some are more firm, and you can't always tell by how much they're perky or saggy.
>>738783192they dont know how to pirate/dont want to everyone plays f2p and 30$ indies - which been the biggest games recent year
>>738796926Godspeed, spikefucker
>>738796980oh yeah i thinka nother thing that can be used to depict how they may feel is how you have them interact with objects around them for example- a skindentation
>>738797426Oh yeah, good thinkin, thanks anon
>>738797139I just can't stomach the concept of gacha at all, I have a core aversion to gambling
>>738783743>>738795070Every now and then i'll see some millennial seething about how zoomers emulate games instead of playing them on real hardware and then i'll see millennials paradoxically seething about zoomers not knowing how to pirate shit. At some point you'll realise millennials just complain because they're getting up there in age and in about 10-15 years we'll be doing the same exact shit, constantly bitching about what gen alpha does.
>>738793283Fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkk I love big titted bimbos!!!!!!!
>>738800983Funny thing having my extended family around: I get to see generational bitterness in real time. We complain about our zoomer cousins, and our zoomer cousins complain about our alpha cousins.
>>738793283it would be extremely painful
>>738798881its not just gacha, skinshop f2p games too - just look at steam top20
>>738802134You're a big guy
>>738784683Do we really have to repeat the cycle with zoomies? I honestly don't hate them, and I don't wanna pretend that I do.
>>738789725Every instance of "gen z is too stupid for X" can be attributed to the doctors and lawyers that boomers and milenials welcomed in with open arms.
>>738784683This is only going to get worse now that college students are using AI to do their homework and their tests.
>>738794214Worse is believing that (you) are special somehow
>>738804485nailed it
F2P have already taken off.
