>Main character is a horrible human being>Goes through little to no character development, game expects you to see her negative traits as heroic?
probably the author's thinly veiled self insert and he doesn't even realizes how much of an unlikable cunt they are, feels like this is always the case in these situations
It's a game representing the upper middle class millenials, who have been cultural looked over, so they can say "hey, we lived too" and pat themselves on the back. Also, she's autistic so she gets a retard pass on shit
>>738853095> its shittier YIIK how do you manage this level of fucking up at least YIIK was an actual game and had much better character designs, nobody would give this shit attention and they knew hence why IGN gave it a perfect score
>>738853095>Main character... SHOULD BE LE GOOD
>>738853246I was like her in hs and through my early 20s. Everyone ghosted me and I couldn't understand why until my archetype started getting called out on youtube since my generation seemed to have a lot of "main characters". I then realized I was a nuform of douchebag.
>>738853556So now you changed and have a wife and kids and lots of friends right
>>738853353stop trying to blame millennials for this shitshow
>>738853246Yep, 100%
>>738853556good on you for figuring it out, most people like that refuse to acknowledge it even when confronted with it directly
>>738853537Correct. I don't like shitheads. Shithead.
>>738853095That's all leftist media.
>>738853813Umm.. you kinda sound like a shithead
Yep, kinolvdo's back on the menu
Night in the woods did it better.
>>738853887
>>738853095This is the new normal since we started getting female protagonists
>>738853647I did change but fell down the proverbial staircase without my delusional self-view to pump my ego and gave way to porn addiction/low self esteem. I now have two cats, a shitty third shift job, and "my mother lives with me" cope.
>>738853902NITW is the same shit.>Oh my god, poor Mae! She clubbed the shit out of a boy who could be left with, at best, severe facial scarring and damage, and at worse life-long brain damage, but HE WAS JUST SHAPES
>>738853095it's millennial tradition
This game is made by social nerd shut-ins who never had a friend in their entire life and it shows
This is so obviously a bunch of rich nepo babies trying to live vicariously through their own idealised images of "common people" and their own journeys and struggles.The idea of "I'm going to become a professional mix-tape maker" is such an obvious elite offspring interest where no matter what they wont be allowed to fail.Like how often they go into NGOs and "charities."It's all just nepo baby day care.
>>738853556Yeah some people think being "cool" is being an asshole. Not to sound like some moral panic motherfucker but in some small way I think cartoons have perpetuated that.
>>738854092That's not how I'd describe the daughter of Larry Ellison.
>>738854138thanks kaiba
>>738853095So this is just the new LIFE IS STRANGE. Cool. Instant garbage.
>spending time thinking and posting about slopoganda psyopped into your consciousness by nepo baby billionairesyikes dawg, do you have any self respect?
>>738854334No. It's a nepo baby's hobby project. She'll make this, and the studio will go kaput, and all the programmers, modellers, etc. will be thrown out in the cold and she'll go to some NGO because her daddy is Larry Ellison.Ignore all the MUH TAPE REWINDING slop and focus on the issue of who made it and why its being so lorded.
>>738853647As someone who suffered under a father with main-character syndrome, they are vampires. It's better for everyone that anon lives alone.
>>738853887Pretty sure you go to jail for this.
>>738855149>Pretty sure you go to jail for this.You think Larry Ellison's daughter understands that laws actually apply to common people?
>>738855149her dad is a cop so 100%
>>738853887Pretty sure the judge would skip sentencing her as a child and go ahead and charge her as an adult due to the severity of her crimes and antisocial behavioral failures.
>>738853887I've seen enough. Time to RETVRN to tradition
>>738853095You're not supposed to see any of them as heroic. They're teenage rebels that go too far.
>>738853696Who else besides millenials would make a childhood coming of age gane set in the 90s?
Aren't you retards tired of caring so much about irrelevant troonslop?Wouldn't your time be better spent playing (or even making) actual videogames?
>>738854508Larry Ellison's daughter co-founded Annapurna Pictures/Games. She had no say regarding the artistic, narrative, and gameplay choices in the game. That would be Beethoven & Dinosaur (millennial-core 2010 reddit-ass name).Billionaires and their nepo-babies are still bad.
>>738853887>90s>no belt to assyea naw this game is made by larpers as per usual
>>738856113Gen X. If it was Millennials it'll be set in the 00s and have things like MSN Messenger and you'll interact with a computer and the MC will say something like:>"The computers still broken. I shouldn't have downloaded that file from Kazaa"or whatever.
>>738853095Yeah this is what all protagonists in the 90s were and it was insufferable.She fits perfectly among the likes of Guy Brush.>inb4 some boomer screeching that monkey island was totally not like this!!!!
>>738856113gen x, especially since most of mixtape is from the 80s
>>738856420I'm a millennial and I always hated LucasArts adventure games. It's like a Bill Murray simulator over and over for hours.
>>738853887The very next second this scene turns into comedy.Chuds really do be taking things out of context to bersmich the indie game of the year.
>>738856453the director of the game calls himself "Galvatron" and still runs a MySpace. Gee, I wonder age cohort this guy belongs to?
Kinda like how I finally watched One Battle After Another, and the mother in the film is an absolute garbage human being who abandoned her daughter to just be a whore and sold out her friends to continue being a terrorist. Then at the end her daughter reads a sappy letter and in supposed to feel any kind of empathy towards her? Oscar best picture by the way.Also this games biggest problem is just that it's uninteresting and just cliche, it treads over all the same tropes teenage movies did decades before it without adding anything of substance.
>>738853095The game does not make her heroic. You never played the "game". The game is a rose tinted fantastical retelling of moments from unreliable narrators. And it ends with them all moving on despite what the pedestal they put those times on. The themes are not complicated or deep at all. It's a simple 2hr story about growing up
>>738856647My name is Cybertron, and that makes me sad. People would rather flex their income and pay off game reviewers to praise their product than, you know, actually make a good fucking game.
>>738856647>the director of the game calls himself "GalvatronWhat a fucking dork. Ew
>>738856689This isn't the hill to die on, hon.
>>738856505>It's like a Bill Murray simulatorthis is officially what point-and-clicks are called now
>>738856647Gen X. Millennials weren't watching Transformers (Well, maybe Beast Wars) and using MySpace.They were on forums and instant messenger clients, and their cartoons would have been Reboot or Gargoyles, or Avatar and WITCH if they're a bit younger. There are far too few Homestuck references for this to be about Millennials.
>>738856819especially galvatron like what a fucking faggot jobber might as well call himself starscreampost-movie gen1 sucked ass
>>738856412Emily is Away, now that's a true millennial jaunt.
>>738856647>Galvatronso transformers? gen x
>>738856961>Millennials weren't watching Transformersnigger i wached the fuck out of transformers kill your mcfucking self
>>738856961Millennials 100 percent used MySpace, but only a pretentious GenX fag obsessed with sharing music would still be using it.
>>738853887>"Dad. I just set a fire in the Californian woods, but also, I'm really mad at you right now."
>>738855149This was made by the daughter of the 5th richest person in the worldThe word jail only exists for us peasants to them
>>738856907I just hate it. Every line of dialogue is just "pick a joke and get a witty, irreverent, reply" and it's just that over and over for no reason other than for you to just be "wow, this is funny!" because it's just two people being funny at each other.No wonder they only let Brian Moriarty make one game. He probably couldn't stand being around the likes of Shaffer.
>Main character is a horrible human being>Goes through little to no character development, game expects you to see her negative traits as heroic
>>738856961I was watching reruns only by virtue of them typically airing in reruns around the same timeslots of actual good media like Gundam was running.
>>738853095It's interesting that they made the loser skater bro on the left the most well adjusted out of the three.
>>738853095class of 09 mogs
>>738857115Bea was cute
>>738856961>not PokemonAnything Millennial that doesn't lead hard into Pokemania is missing.
>>738853095Kratos in GoW 1-3.
>>738857196>>738857029It doesn't change that Transformers wasn't the Millennial thing. It was what your older brother used to be into along with Thundercats and He-Man.
>>738857327Anti-Heroes are BAD@SS
I'm concerned how obsessed every teen in this town is with alcohol.
>>738857378Hmmmnrr... Nyo. I think I'll be the decider of what applies and doesn't apply. You don't have to like it, you just have to get over it.
>one day we'll have to endure the nostalgia of people into homestuck and colorful horses
>>738857506anon we already do
>>738857457So would you claim that in 1996 there were kids into Transformers the same way they were into Pokemon?
>>738853095>Game made by 6th richest person in the worlds daughter>MC is an unlikable rich cunt activist CrazyWho could have seen this coming
>>738857560No because they fundamentally aren't equal franchises.
>>738853887only half as cringe without the badass guitar riffs on every dramatic zoom-in
Being into 80s kid stuff while being a 90s kid is just outing yourself as being either from South America or Eastern Europe.
>>738853887Stopping an arsonist is justifiable homicide in most states. Would have been a perfect ending if that happened in response to her little speech.
>>738857586>activist?
>>738853095>leftist self insert character>is a horrible person>surprised when people don't like them Every time.
>>738857560Everyone still knew what a fucking Autobot was, they were still showing Transformers reruns on TV in the mid 1990s, and Pokemon didn't come out in the west until close to 1999.
>>738857814>picrelshe was based
>>738857753>threat to life of (many) others >damage to property public and private>damage to infrastructure >economic cost and time/strain on resources to clean up burn area and surrounding area from taxpayersHeh... the charges officer?
>>738853095I don't care. I don't know why twitter wants me to hate this so much
>>738857619They are, just a decade removed from each other.The fact remains that no kid in the 90s was into Transformers the way the kids in the 80s were into Transformers. It's like having an 80s kid being super into Steely Dan.
>>738857586>>Game made by 6th richest person in the worlds daughterthis isn't even true, oh my god.
>>738853887It's even more hilariously cringe with sound.https://x.com/Glinner/status/2053645356660080800
>>738857887Nah it's like saying star wars, any iteration, measures up in any metric outside of financial to Tomino's Gundam. When the latter is insurmountably superior.
>>738857834That's not what I'm talking about though. I'm not saying that it was totally alien and unknown. I'm talking about what was the "man, do you remember..." for a particular generation.You'd be more likely to find a 90s kid into Princess Gwenevere and the Jewel Riders than into Transformers in the way that 80s kids were.
>>738857928Sorry, 5th richest person in the world's daughter
>>738853095>Would you have awkward sex with Stacey in the back of a car while she plays her "Awkward Sex in the back of a Car" mixtape?
>>738857928Probably number 1 richest now from all the mixtape sales!
>>738857928>this isn't even true, oh my god.you don't even believe in God
>>738855654>You're not supposed to see any of them as heroic.Except the game's writer said Stacy is meant to be a modern day Odysseus and this is her odyssey.
>>738856961I'm 32, everyone in middle school had a MySpace until Facebook came out and everyone migrated there
>>738857928She even looks like the main character

>>738853556I've got friends that don't want to hang out with me regularly because apparently I'm a hater, but how is it my fault they enjoy slop? They get excited for reboots or sequels of better films, but now with more propaganda, emasculated men kicked around by girlbosses and non-whites; made by such talentless hacks that it's not even good propaganda like what we grew up with.Everything made for the "modern audience" that's supposed to "subvert expectations" never subverts my expectations, it's always the most predictable shit. Whenever we watch a film together I know exactly what's going to happen, and then they get annoyed at me for pointing it out.
>>738853556>>738853752>main charactersWhat is this specific form of douchebag?
>>738858604Basically narcissists. The kind of people who think the world revolves around them, where they can't see things from other peoples perspectives and do things that are selfish and annoying because it shows a complete lack of care or understanding of those facts.It can be something small like standing in the middle of a walkway taking photos of themselves and or getting angry at random people "getting in their shots" like they somehow own the street. Very common among modern women, especially in Gyms and dumb tiktok cunts.Like I said - not a real clinical term, but just a set of ideas to basically describe narcissists.
>>738858564Dont point it out. That's just being an asshole. You can say, afterwards, that you saw it coming and it didn't land for you, but saying something they liked was bad is an attack on their taste. Of course they will react negatively to you acting negatively towards them. Stop being a dick.
>>738858564Based nooticer.
>>738853887this really should have been just a movie
>>738853887who the fuck talks like this?
>>738853887Oh hi homeworld 3 you look so 90's today
>>738853887FVARK
>>738858126Sure would
wom-o-vision
>>738853095Video games
>>738858852>watch Fast and furious something, plot goes "we gotta rescue the best hacker in the world!">I say it's gonna be a frizzy-haired black chick>it was a frizzy-haired black chick I mean come on man. At this point it'd subvert my expectations if it was a fat asian kid. I even told them at some point after one of the films featured nuclear submarines, they're gonna go to space, and they fucking did in the next one.>Watch Malignant>Don't remember the exact scene, but immediately put 2+2 together that the "monster" was on the backside of the MCs head >tell them, they don't believe me>after it's revealed they act like I didn't see it comingI'm not being mean or autistic about it, if anything I'm being too kind considering how condescending their attitudes are. >>738858931Yeah, thank got my close circle of friends are all noticers too so we can make fun of modern writing as soon as we see it.
>>738857327Are you retarded? Kratos was never "heroic", the games were clearly inspired by greek drama writing. Not to mention that at the end of GoW 3 he finally starts thinking clearly and realizes what he did during his mad rampage so he game ends himself for the sake of humanity
>>738858852could you elaborate on why any of that is bad or "asshole" like or "dick" like without using normative language.
>>738857586>Anon doesn't understand the difference between devs and publishersI could understand being ignorant of that on /pol/, but you're from /v/, you should know better.
>>738859065But then they would have had to compete in the movie market. And even normalfags would have watched it and said>this is actually repulsive dogshit for retards
>>738857887There are 20s teens right now super into Nirvana or the Beatles or Led Zeppelin.
>>738859348Hyper tribalist leftards and rightoids are actually that stupid, yes and need to be confined to the containment board so they can spew their equally unacceptable drivel at each other. YOU'RE CORRECT
>>738858830Oh, ok. I've been told I have main character syndrome because every time I go out something weird happens, occasionally severely. It's just resulted in me going out less. As a result of this I also try to carry my self like a main character, but that means dressing nicely and having good posture and acting like a camera's always watching, which leads to me being nicer to people, not ruder and more self-centered.
When did the West become so allergic to making even slightly likable protagonists? They shouldn't be angels or anything, but why make them so vile? How am I supposed to hope these people succeed at their goals when I loathe them?
>>738859623no lady liberty crying with joy? fake kelly comic
>>738859203You’re right this piece of shit should only be mocked on /tv/. It isn’t a game
>>738859658Being demure or nice is seen as boring, and/or wimpy. Some characters do get shit for those qualities even on /v/, despite not being assholes on here.
>>738859658It's a crutch for talentless hacks to write a "deep" and "morally complex" character.
>>738859658As soon as everything HAD to be a subversion of something else.
>>738859752what does this have to do with anything? it's easy to name likable characters who aren't demure or nice.
>>738853887art style is awesome for real time rendering if this isn't just a cutscene
>>738853537I don't mind characters that start off as assholes. But they should either grow out of it, or get comeuppance for it and at the very least start trying to grow out of it. And asshole who learns nothing and sees no reason to stop is boring.
>>738858852I disagree. Predict what happens consistently, and you'll seem like a genius to your friends.Rub it in later with "I told you so"s is when you start seeming like a boring asshole.
>>738859327See, that's the problem. It doesn't matter that you see things coming, and you needing to tell them is depriving then of enjoyment for the sake of your ego. To those who didn't see it coming, you've spoiled that part of the movie, and right or wrong you've impacted their experience with new expectations.Also, talking during a movie that people haven't watched is frowned upon because it distracts and detracts from the immersion and overall experience.
I thought it was pretty obvious that Rockford was autistic to some degree.
>>738853095It's a narcissist's wet dream. I realized that the last time I spoke to my mother on the phone, shortly before I cut her out of my life, when she mentioned she's reading Angela Merkel's biography. They actively celebrate people, or media about such people, who are destructive, self serving cunts with no remorse or self awareness and suffer no consequences for their actions because that's their own wish fulfillment fantasy as well.Nepo babies, womanchildren and champagne socialists are all narcissists and they are the same people who make up the woke cult and their idols, are you surprised OP?
>>738860115that's just the writers and game designers shining through.
>>738859345>spoiling a movie, even if it's a guess and may be wrong, alters your perception and expectations of the spoiled event>it hurts suspense, can ruin a mystery, doesn't let them come to their own conclusions naturally and downplays pacing and structure of a film>talking during a movie people haven't seen us bad form, unless the friend group dynamic includes riffing films and is in private, which this one doesn't since they are annoyed at anon.
>>738859658Slater seems pretty ok, for a skater bro.
>>738860053You're assuming too much.We're all gathered in my place or someone else's place, we're not in a movie theatre, we're not black people so we're not rude enough to ruin other people's movie watching experience. Even they know we're not watching some cinematic masterpiece, we're not seeing the director's cut of The Lord Of The Rings. We all talk and make jokes and when there's a mystery of some kind everyone throws out their theories, it's what you do when you're in a group of friends.
>>738857107Ah I wondered why it was being astroturfed so hard. That makes sense.
>>738853095Are you telling me you actually played this garbage anon?
>>738860345I watched Chibidoki play it.
>>738859986You'll seem like a narcissist, and are acting like one. Why is your ego more important than their enjoyment. Saying that your found the movie predictable when discussing it afterwards is part of a conversation, predicting it during the film is rude, due to being an interruption, and only serves yourself.
>>738859658I'm probably gonna sound like a fagot since I've been going down a lot of self improvement and therapy holes on YouTube. But these games always feel like they miss the point of the advice of "you don't need to change or sacrifice yourself for others." They take it to a too literal extreme where they don't understand the difference between keeping true to your own values and self worth, your own autonomy and being in control. They don't want to be controlled but don't have the full understanding or self awareness that they are the ones actually in control, but that it also doesn't give them the right to control other people. All of these characters just end up being asshole narcissists who instead of just leaving whatever situation they are in and accepting whatever consequences will happen and taking accountability for themselves they instead unintentionally double down and become the thing they are fighting against: being a hyper controlling dictator and asshole who thinks they never do anything even remotely wrong.
>>738860461>I watched someone else play itCongratulations, you got the same experience everyone who "played" the game did.
>>738860310You literally said they don't want to hang out with you, so clearly you are misreading the dynamic, or misread friends that you tried to include. The latter is unfortunate but normal, the former might require some self reflection.
>>738860053It's not really a spoiler cause they don't know if you're wrong or right until it happens (and I can't speak for the other guy but I'm wrong like 1/3 of the time).>Also, talking during a movie that people haven't watched is frowned upon because it distracts and detracts from the immersion and overall experience.I tend not to watch movies with boring people like that.
>>738860552Kind of like how Disney films are really big nowadays into Female Protagonists not being tied down by anything, but it really comes off as them ditching responsibility without a care in the world?
>>738860291Name instantly make me think of American Pie, which I think came out in the late 90s.
>>738860668You never watch a movie in a public venue? It's why people are quiet in a theater, generally people want to watch a movie, not listen to you talk about it. In private its totally fine, but you still need to read the room. Clearly, since his friends explicitly don't want to hang out with him, anon was being a disturbance to the dynamic, and the friend(s) wanted to watch the movie.
>>738858564Sometimes people just want to eat slop and relax. That said, my family now even admits all this wokeshit is slop and commiserates (they were big star trek / LOTR fans ans watched the new stuff, even they gave up…)
>>738860478I don't completely agree, but you make a valid point. I'll discuss it with my friends to see if I'm annoying them by doing that.
>>738860291He’s definitely the least irritating of the 3, he needs better friends
>>738860786Yup, 1999. It is kinda interesting that you never see that name anymore. It's the Eustace of the 90's, sadly.
>>738860852I'm thinking more in private. I do sometimes talk a bit in a movie theater, but that really depends on the movie and the dynamic of the entire crowd, rather than just my friends. (I live in an urban area, and don't mind a raucous crowd if it's the sort of movie that benefits from it, like a comedy.)
>>738860980Looked it up, the name is Stifler.But yeah, there are some 90s names you barely see anymore, and I'm sure Gen Z will have their own names like Jayden which will seem dated in a few decades.I just hope Gen A kids don't start naming their own kids 'Gertrude' or 'Beatrice" when they come of age and start reproducing.
>>738858564it's a lot easier to hold your spaghetti in when you realize that you were exactly like that at one point>>738859658when millenials took over the writingimagine a generation that was never bullied for being insufferable cunts but were actually told "no, it's not you who is in the wrong, is everyone else who is in the wrong, you are valid and you are unique". Every other domino just followed
>>738860642>You literally said they don't want to hang out with youI said not regularly, but we still hang out, they learned what I hate and don't bother asking me if I want to go with them to watch capeshit or Disney Slopwars. After all I have a villa in the mountains, and some of them don't even have a car, what are they gonna do? >>738860879I'm alright with that, I used to play the campaigns of Call of Duty games as a guilty pleasure when they were just army propaganda.But then they had to introduce le based black SaS captain in WWII, same with Battlefield with their WWI/WWII campaigns, and now the latest CoD is a clownworld fever dream. I can't even enjoy them as a guilty pleasure any more. American Krogan has excellent breakdowns of the propaganda in these games. As for movies, I'd rather watch something old I missed the first time around or re-watch something I haven't seen in decades like Tremors. Even a middle of the road film from the 90s looks better visually and has better dialogue and script than Netflix productions. Did you notice how all new films, apart from all the propaganda, seem to be made for literal retards that need to be told, multiple times, what's happening? It's by design, since they know the audience is going to be too distracted by their phones to be paying attention. Some movies like The Gorge had literal video-game style exposition scenes. Compare that with the opening scene of Rear Window:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3uo8sd_xBcIf they remake it it will have a monologue here, to spoonfeed you.
>>738856687>Then at the end her daughter reads a sappy letter and in supposed to feel any kind of empathy towards her?You can empathize with someone in spite of them being a bad person, spergbro. You're not supposed to like her.
>>738860786Why? There's no one in American Pie called Slater. Dazed and Confused on the other hand
>>738860778Yeah kind of. I think I need to organize and refine my thoughts a bit more, but that's pretty good.
>>738853887dvd menus have more ludo than this, and they come with entire actual movies
>None of these are playing Nintendo.No wonder they've turned to booze and other teenage shenanigans.
>>738853353anon its made by the tranny son of a billionaire
>>738855553Based but how did that work?>woman of house <name>><man's last name>'s woman><father's name>'s daughterI could understand her not taking the surname as she would just take her husband's surname anyway, but no first name seems pretty inconvenient!And then what game?
>>738861693>trannysource? how worse can it possibly get?
>>738861724idk if that game is 4x focused or what but it would not be mentioned in like a property deed or genealogy not like she literally did not have a name lol
>>738854142>daughter
>>738861660They should be collecting WATER.
>>738861693/v/ not understanding the difference between publisher and developer is the real death knell of this place. You used to be able to PRETEND you were smart at least.
>>738856961you're getting confused by how later millennials have nothing in common with older millennials. the generation is split pretty much directly in half due to mainstream proliferation of the internet. Half the generation never knew a world without it.
>>738860573Given how the game works there actually isn't a single difference between any two playthroughs
>>738861831Ok, so probably just not "given" in the sense of "officially" recognized. Kinda like how Japanese women way back only had their first names recognized in katakana but not kanji.

>>738859984Being a cunt establishes dominance. It's what you see right here on /v/. The running theme is that always being the aggressor, the instigator marks you as a dominant free thinker among the passive NPC sheep. The thing is it actually works in influencing people.
>>738853887Having watched a “playthrough” of this slop. The weirdest thing about this is that she’s LARPing as an arsonist to be “le scary and intimidating” to her controlling cop dad, and THAT somehow convinces him to let her go. The fire actually starts because these retarded kids set off fireworks at a rotting old shack in the middle of the woods.

>>738862874No shit. Wokies don't play games.
>>738863085Yeah, you’re right. That definitely plays into that moment, and I’ll admit to overlooking it. There’s certainly an inkling of something there. But for a game that has so little well… game, the story beats it has feel so, barren? I’m not really endeared to anyone in the story all that much, I guess.

IM YIIKING OUT RIGHT NOW
>>738862230ThisI even tried to play the corresponding music every time they talked about it. Damn it sucks
The game is basically a glorified propaganda of that old music that didn't even fit in the rebel teens of the 90s.I bet that if we search the rights of those songs, they're in some way related to the owners of the studio and/or producers of the game.
>>738853095As someone who has at least gotten a modicum of enjoyment from these fuckass LiS-likes, this is by far the worst. Incredibly unlikable protag and even the deuteragonists aren't very good, story flounders around and goes nowhere quite often, random gameplay moments add nothing. This game is just nothing.
>>738861724>Based but how did that work?as far as I am informed girls get the family name and a number, so they are called stuff like Claudia Prima, Claudia Secunda and so onas you can see names like Claudia or Julia have become first names for women
>>738853887HOLY SHIT SLAY GIRL GET EM
>>738853095why is it so hard for people here to understand that the music you listen to as a teenager literally defines your entire world view for the future. if you disagree in any way you are a friendless loser who probably doesn't even like video games and will never have sex, it's that simple.

>>738866971because that only works if you also don't have to work or go to school or learn anything at all because your father is rich and your "friends" will never tell you to fuck off because you're also rich, so you'll never experience any hardships or grow as a person, and literally everything about you (aside from being rich) will be defined by the media you consume,

>>738866508My friends are not *that* bad though they play Diablo 4 and Dota 2. In my 20s I was in a friend group where three of us all got a turn with one of the girls, then we all went our separate ways, because of her pretty much, so I'm guilty of that. >Can't talk anything else with them because they're too enclosed to their slop. Not books, not movies or series outside their usual slop. Not games outside their range. Anything.That's the most frustrating parts, one of the dudes that loves his slop is almost impossible to engage with on any other topic besides "nerd" culture. If you try to talk about something serious he will either pretend to engage you and just wait his turn to steer the conversation back into safe territory, or will try to turn serious matters into a joke.
>>738854032>poor Mae!Did you even play the game? Everyone in the town fucking hates Mae other than the resident fag who is arguably worse than her. Even her parents are sick of her shit but they're cucked boomers who refuse to take responsibility to raise her properly.

>>738855237>>738857107>>738860312I dunno why you're suddenly pretending these people are invinsible to law. Just because they're not running around committing crimes like retards doesn't mean they're above it. Although maybe you're just a third-worlder.

>>738857851That's not what that word means, you subhuman.
>>738867131Calling woke games like Dustborn 'millenial' as the main problem is some shitter revisionist history trying to create generational hate instead of pointing to leftists lol.
>>738858564So… why are you even friends with them?
>>738873220
>>738873214it technically is though. the issue is "millennial" is split directly in half by the internet going mainstream. the generation was originally called that because it would be the last generation to know a world before the year 2000. the internet going mainstream in the 00s was a much more significant divisor, as people who've known a world without internet have absolutely nothing in common with people who don't.
>>738862767Unfortunately that means here it's always the most rabid retards who end up on top, you would have to be somewhat retarded to spend the time arguing with people as stupid as you see here, in an anonymous forum where no progress will be made by the argument and they will have no incentive to keep from embarrassing themselves or be correct, just confident enough to sway those dumb enough to listen to them without further inquiry. It worked well enough at the beginning when the internet was a better place, but these days it is the lowest common denominator trash.
>>738853887this is the masterpiece?
>>738853887what's with the shitty zoom-ins and cringe dialogue?how the fuck is this game blowing up?
>>738874654developed by the tranny son of the fifth richest man alive, thus astroturf campaign.
>>738874113>the generation was originally called that because it would be the last generation to know a world before the year 2000.I thought it was called that because it was the generation at the millennium."Oh he's a millennial, he was born at the millennium".>people who've known a world without internet have absolutely nothing in common with people who don't.I think they have a lot more in common. Normalfags who don't use the internet much or use the normie side of the internet don't have anything in common with the terminally online, which is not particularly generational other than older boomers never saw a computer before whilst younger boomers, in formal work, did indeed have to learn how to use them.
>>738874790people who think the internet is real life vs those who know it isn't.
>>738853095YIIK did this better and the only one that had an actually unlikeable protagonist. Most "unlikeable protagonists" are just slightly shitty and someone you wouldn't consider insufferable like Alex.
>>738875137YIIK’s protagonist is intentionally unlikable, which is an important distinction.
>>738874113Yeah frankly major cultural events that radically shift societal landscape is way better indicator than arbitrary generations by groups of years. If you were alive and lucid enough to remember 9/11 and those towers falling, that is a very clear demarcation point as well. A millennial born in 88 and a millennial born in 94 don't have too much in common. Their experiences is too disparate to group them together.
>>738874945You say that like you can't be incarcerated for mean tweets, libel, or that 90% of bureaucracy in a first world country is digital and decides your life, and that includes money, the transfer of it, the tax, etc.
>>738875242no, it really isn't

>>738853095It's the classic Californian hero's journey
>>738854397More than the game "journalists".
>>738875781Which people are we talking about again?The boomers I know drink the most kool aid and ironically despite having more free time than anyone to "get informed" are the last people to look outside the window.They're heavily dependent on legacy media and are a dark shadow of what normalfags will become whose TV and CNN will in the future be Twitter and Netflix if they don't migrate to TV to tell them to not be alarmed and continue voting for the two approved parties.
Time to Snoot Game it, bros.
>>738858830Narcissism is an actual mental illness you can be diagnosed with, the problem is that narcissists have huge abilities to camouflage themselves to dumb psychiatrists who see them an hour a month at best.I still remember my ex telling me his psychiatrist called him really intelligent and all that, and you listened to him for more than two seconds in his real personality and he just kept saying the dumbest and most moronic shit imaginable, like wasting like 5 years of adult high-school because he didn't want to do homework that gave 6 points in the final score, and tests only gave 4, literally gifting him the degree and he was too stupid to take the deal.
>>738875823It's not a joke and it's even worse with the accompanying audio, like unimaginably worse.
>>738856687I've heard that you could cut out all of the DiCaprio scenes (like 80% of the movie) and it wouldn't affect the plot in any way.Not in like the "Indiana Jones didn't do anything in Raiders", as Jones at least delayed the Nazis. More like DiCaprio's character is literally superfluous to the story, despite nominally being the "main" character.
>>738874113>pure gibberishnone of that explained why it's not leftism and just a generational thing lol.
>>738874945>people who think the internet is real life vs those who know it isn't.Hello 30 year old boomer, welcome to current year. Peoples' real life identities are tied to their internet personas. I know you have been on 4chan since 2016 (very impressive and all) and since 4chan has identifying mechanisms on the back end instead of straight asking you for your phone number like Google does you think you are super secret internet man or whatever, but there have been numerous arrests in "1st world countries" such as Britian based purely off of what people post online. 4chan itself has been involved in numerous court cases after the arrests of users.Remember, nothing you say on the internet is truly anonymous, you are just banking on people and governments not caring enough to track you down for whatever it is you say.
>>738876018We're talking about how the "millennial" generation is split pretty much in half between people who'd know a world without internet and people who won't. The latter will think the internet is real life, due to not knowing a world without it, and think its justifiable to jail people for text.This is something you clearly can't comprehend, due to being a younger millennial, at the oldest.
>>738853095Jewlywood did it decades ago and it's still for some reason considered one of the greatest movies of all time
>>738859658The writers started basing characters on themselves.
>>738853887Her dad does horrible things to her, like not wanting her to consume alcohol as a minor and not wanting her to attend to clandestine parties where a bunch of teenagers will get drunk, use drugs and start forest fires.Heck, he would even rather have her STUDY and PRACTICE SPORTS, which she is actually very good at, instead of hanging out with her two loser friends all day.
>>738876479Comedy protagonists who you're not really supposed to respect can get away with a lot more because you're not supposed to respect them.
wait a minute, that name...
>>738857115funny, I was thinking about this one too. >hey lets just completely trash this fastfood bathroom stall, smash every mirror and throw garbage and shit all over for no reason>no you cant skip it>no you dont clean up after you>no it's never mentioned again>yes you just made some minimum wagies shift about 4 hours longer>just because this character couldnt keep her shit together for 2 minutes.
>>738876768We finally found the modern audience!
>>738876394>and think its justifiable to jail people for text.Internet addicts are probably less likely to think as much.The boomers who are in charge are the ones who invented and implemented every law that jails people for writing out text, specifically because it's undeniable and written in stone and therefore easily punishable despite being much less damaging, including not damaging, compared to theft or fraud.Whilst you will find internet addicts who call looking at photographs of swimwear models rape, you will also find Le Based Real World Enjoyers also saying that.I'm sorry that you so desperately want to belong to a pre-internet generation who, and I need to remind you, were born at latest in the year 1970, not the decade, because computers and the internet were so mainstream by the '90s the Matrix was made, distributed and became a hit.If you weren't 40 by the turn of the millennium, you grew up and worked with computers as a fact of your bureaucratic life and insane opinions weren't invented when the Net was.
>>738853246>>738856356Ding ding ding. The develops are transvestite Australian hipsters. She is also wearing her headphones backwards.
If these characters were Lolis you faggots would be all over them
>>738876998I keep telling you where the actual distinction lies and you keep pushing your faulty one. As "internet addicts" who'd never put any personal information into a computer, much less on the internet, and "internet addicts" who grew up putting their entire life on the internet, are very different people.
>>738859658Villains somehow convince masses that allowing them to seize 50% of their paychecks in taxes will increase accountability for the elitesVillains bounce taxes across proxies with most of it landing in the hands of the hedge funds and other institutionally-approved machinesVillains leverage the fact that they've forcibly seized control of half of the economy to control the other half and put their fellow villains in chargeMedia becomes a propaganda tool for villains first and foremostEverything becomes vile
>>738877395You said that internet addicts are the only people who think tweets are real.
>>738853095Is this like the movie hoppers? Or is it like Chloe from life is strange Either way, terrible human beings don’t get treated like such
>>738877951No, I did not. I said people who wouldn't know a world without mainstream internet would think tweets are real.
>this will only be the beginning of my wicked ways
>>738857928Why do retards post like this? They just say you're wrong without any actual counter argument. Hoping people will just believe it at face value and move on?STATE YOUR CASE YOU STUPID FUCKING LIBTARD
>>738878247lying is a very creative process and most people can't handle it, especially when they're caught.
>>738878050>young people are the problem and want you arrested for tweetingyes, I know that's what you're saying, which is why I'm trying to tell you that boomers made the laws to arrest tweeters and people who "grew up before the internet" are not some magical ubermensch.
>>738879093... and these "young people" are over 30... as that type of person would start being born in the latter half of the "millennial" generation.
