Everything coming out this past month from Sony, Microsoft, Steam, GTA, Bethesda, Bungie, EVERYTHING has been a daily dose of end stage capitalism.This industry is on the fast track to a dystopian future. The money is there, the passion is there, but not one single fucking developer or fan of the hobby can participate without paying the bridge troll.Everywhere you turn it's rising prices, layoffs, AI investments, RAM/SSD shortage, global warming etc etc
>>742430898ok so just kill yourself then, if everything is so bleak there's no reason for you to continuing living, so by all means just do it, no one will miss you
>>742431040It's bleak but we can't give up hope or basically Trump wins
>>742431040Well I'm not going to kms myself over video games
>>742430898It is late-stage capitalism but it is hilarious the hoops anon like you go without blaming Drumpf>dumb untargeted tariffs which raises prices for everybody>corruption where tech oligarchs just give him BILLIONS of dollars so they can do whatever they wants>Trump-backed AI companies driving up prices b/c we on some sort of tech arms competition with China >wars for Israel>general dumb economic policies including tax cuts for the wealthy
>>742431375I prefer not to mention him. But I agree he is the root of all evil and has caused these problems for the gamjng industry directly or indirectly
>>742431375That's cool DNC propagandist but I'm still not voting for newsom
>>742430898I took out my GameCube, I have the Zelda Collectors edition, WW and TP, thinking about marathoning some Zelda games, it's not like there's anything new worth buying.Only bummer is that ALttP is not on the collectors edition disc, but zelda I and II, OoT and MM are. Oh well.
>>742431530But you just know Newscum is a gamer
>>742431375Taxation is theft and you should kill yourself for defending it
>>742430898Get a job, get a life, get another hobby, stop being this pathetic little fuck that makes video games his entire persona. Touch grass, touch a vagina even, just shut up about video games all the time you waste of space.
doesnt matter since 70% of all players play Fortnite, RoBlox, LoL or some other live servce game that basically just requires a toaster to run it.
>>742431707I guess you can't read between the lines but this is about more than just video games
>>742431789Yeah its also crying that fake jobs are going to get replaced by AI so you cant be a leech anymore
>>742431707>touch a vaginaLet's not make this a gross-out thread. Thabks god I'm a volcel.
>>742431871>Implying UBI isn't coming with the next Dem president
>>742431375Ah yes Sony is phasing out physical media becase.... of drumpf. And the Democrats? They are notorious Ted Kaczynski style anarcho-primitivists, if only they had gotten in they would have banned the development of AI, not like they've been best buddies with all the big tech companies and recieved endless money from them every election.Thank you left wing agent for shifting blame away from the people pushing this and turning it into a partisan issue, thus making discourse impossible.

>>742432173It's inevitable, you know it to be true
>>742430898Everything is going to be painful for awhile. Reminder we are nearly 3 weeks out from when Trump said the US had only 4 weeks of oil reserves left, shit’s gonna get bad
>>742431707>said anon on the /v/ - Video Games board
>>742430898I don't really care. I have more than enough games to last me for the rest of my life, good indie games are still coming out, and if for some reason steam become enshitified, I'll just start pirating games, just like I have with movies, tv shows and music since forever.Studios shutting down? console cattle getting fucked? new games infested with social engineering propaganda and coded by 80iq jeets?say it with me: NOT MY PROBLEM
>studied my whole life to do art for vidya>as soon as i reach a reasonable age to start jobhunting, pandemic followed by fifteen waves of economic collapse and mass game industry retardation and aislop investment
>>742433542Can't you pivot to non-vidya art?
>>742433542Get a real job?
>>742430898The game market is saturated as fuck.
>>742431707take it easy boomeryour pensions are fine

>>742433542Time to do NSFW commissions for furries my nigga, they hate AI and you'll make big moneys
>>742433542Whip out the brushes and become a real painter.
>>742434145Vidya was never in a better state, its console corporate cultists who are crying, and good, they deserve nothing. Sony this Nintendo that, without a fucking jew telling you what to play you have no idea what to do with your life.
>>742431375I’m tired of hearing about your fat orange retard obsession
We are living in a golden age of indy gaming.Stop waiting to be spoonfed the glorious game and find yourself the games that are original and deserve funding.Vote with your wallet, support SKG on the way.Oh an "Vote with you wallet" mean STOP SUPPORTING SHITTY PRACTICE!If you want them to stop selling P2W freemium game, stop playing as a free NPC for their whale market
>>742437447lol
>>742430898Why do you retards care so much about AAA games
