>>743728047Oh come on that's a cheat code
>>743727956Don't you find entertaining seeing younger people worry about meaningless problems? The older I get, the happier I am. Getting old is just one step closer to the sweet release of death.

>>743726740Mario Odyssey actually.
>>743727956I keep up on anti aging and there's some very promising human trials going on right now. It's not really for "anti aging", but more for stuff like reversing macular degeneration or curing Type 1 diabetes. It's tangentially related to anti aging though because the techniques, if they work, can be used in other parts of the body to basically "rejuvenate" them. Unfortunately the hypothetical price, if those trials succeed, would be close to 500,000 for 1 treatment, that only covers the eye.
>>743728047I was just about to say HL2Ep2 since orange box was one of my earliest game purchases I made myself, but I really feel that what hits me harder is when I'm reminded of a game and go >"Oh yeah, still had that playthrough going. I should finish that.">last played 2 years agoLike I just looked through the steam library and noticed I never ended up playing the DLC for talos principle 2 despite loving the game.>>743728173How the fuck did almost a decade pass since that dropped?

RE1 is 30 years old
>>743728536It's funny for the games that are like celebrating 25 or 30 or even 40 year anniversaries, it's like yeah those were old classics nice to see them persist so long. But for the games that are like 15 years or younger they're like, what the fuck that just came out yesterday?
>>743726953Make it stop...
The Final Fantasy IV 35th anniversary made me realize I'm only a couple years older than FF4. It also made me realize the game was almost 10 years old when I first played it.
>>743728716WHOA... LESS TIME FEELS LIKE... LESS TIME!

>>743726884>If you're under the age of 40>You're not cute>You're not funny
It feels like the 10th anniversary wasn't that long ago. Now EO is turning 20 in January, and there's still no EOVI in sight. Bleak.
>>743726884On the contrary, that's the main people who DO struggle with it. You ever heard of a mid-life crisis? That's because people ignore that shit and look up one day to freak out, while most other people slowly grapple with aging as they get older. 20-somethings joke about how they have responsibilities unlike teens and feel old. 30-somethings joke about how they start having to work to stay in shape and have little kids running them ragged. 40-something joke about how their older kids are crazy and that they wish they were as young as other adults in their 20s and 30s. This is all super normal shit and how people cope with it healthily.
>>743729327These days with the Internet it's differentIf you're less than 20 you're a zoomer or gen x or whatever they use to basically call punk kid these days that should get off their lawnIf you're in the 20s then your life is already overIf you're 30s then your back hurts and bones ache you uncIf you're 40s you're a decrepit grandpa with one foot in the graveIf you're over 40 it's basically like fossils at the museum of natural historyAnd over 50 and beyond may as well be mummies alongside king tuts tomb

fortnite is a decade old
>>743726740If you think games being old is disturbing, just look at how old video reviews of games areAVGN has been airing for over 20 years now. His review of Castlevania 2 is older than the game itself was back then.Spoony posted the first part of his Final Fantasy VIII review saga 19 years ago. FFXII was released in US just a few months prior.
moot quit 11 years ago/vg/ was made 14 years agoeverything past 2015 feels like a blur
>>743732935It's because it is a blur, nothing fucking happens, both this board and basedciety in general, except things slowly getting worse. I mean, obama era feels like a different time in politics, but in terms of entertainment and fashion we're standing still because corpotards are deathly afraid of not rehashing old proven shit

to me what's striking isn't even the passage of time itself, but how stagnant everything seems to be like ffs we're still in 'era' of Skyrim and Minecraft, and Fortnite and Roblox. And new releases are just remasters, or more of the same. More Cowaduty, another Mario. GTA6 is the first actually 'big' thing to happen in like a decade+it's not even just videa. I watched WordCup a bit, and it seems like it's the same players as last time (4 years ago) the same dramas and shitposts. And then there's politics that's all grandpas in need of adult diapers who been in power for decades

>>743726740Not a game, but for me it was watching John Carpenter's the Fog and the thought suddenly occurring that we're further from the Fog now, in 2026, than it was from Universal's monster movies like Bride of Frankenstein when it came out in 1980.Also scary to think that 2006 feels recent but, in 2006, 1986 felt like the distant past even though there's the same time distance between them.
>>743737058>minecraft(full release), skyrim, and dark souls came out in 2011>the entire decade and a half afterwards was influenced by them>we're only just now weaning off of survival crafting games, skyrim rereleases, and soulslikesgenuinely grim time to be a gaymer, absolutely 0 creativity
>>743726740All of them because you can count the number of good games that have come out in the last 10 years on one hand.When we get a genuinely great year of games (>10 that are a 7/10 or above) then we can talk about considering those games to be 'old'. Until then there just isn't anything 'new' to compare them against.
>>743737850>battleroyales>hero shooters>'extraction shooters'
In my spastic mind, the PS3 is newer than the PS4 and 5.I guess it's because it was so fucking expensive at the time. $1000 AUD at launch. Unbelievable. Especially when you compare it to how a PS5 only costs $1000 AUD oh fuck
>>743730242I think I should probably just get around to killing myself soon

Are there any reverse examples? Games that seem to have been around for decades, even though they are only like two years old
>>743726740Ah yes a major launch title. What a gem.
>>743730703Bruh
Honestly? There are enough video games to last several lifetimes. We don't need more games, we need longer lifespans.

>>743727159It doesn't make you feel old it makes you feel superior to these little shits.
>>743726839I was checking out the videos of someone who seemed to have fixated on Source games and it occurred to me right away that the creator was much younger than me, which I didn't mind since I like that Source is still remembered in some way even if it's with stupid memes and stuff. But it sure made me feel old hearing him calling games like EYE Divine Cybermancy and Insurgency obscure.
>>743727956You'll have to ask Fable. Or a Japanese person.
>>743728047TF2 is one of the few games that actually feels that old.
>>743738775the most bitch made response posted todaycongrats
>>743729497All stupid zoomer mentality because they think they wont age for some reason. Shit is going to be hilarious in a few years when half of them are balding and alphies start shitting on them for being old and bald. All zooms know how to do is go "ur old" and then they will probably kill themselves when its used on them
>>743726953Persona 5 came out during the period where I was homeless and bumming couches from family up and down the East Coast before finally moving back in with my parents and getting a job at Best Buy; the music is burned into my brain as being from that time. It's genuinely weird to think that that was a decade ago, the same time period from being, say, 6 to 16. But also FFXV came out then too and it does actually feel that old.
WoW-Cataclysm came out about 16 years ago, WoW itself is over 20 years old.TTGL is 19 years old
None
>>743739020It's weird because Millennials weren't like that. We were more concerned with not being treated like kids.

>>743738397No it didn't
>>743739041I can’t believe WoW has been bad for the majority of it’s lifespan.
I guess Im weird in that I dont think about my age at all and routinely forget how old I am? Like Ive always been that way though. It didnt occur to me that I was squarely an "adult" until I was in my late 20s. Because I never saw myself as a "kid" or an "adult". Im just me.I dont know man, I swear that half the bitching about "Im old" is just people obsessing over their age and self limiting. Im 35 and outside of my hairline slightly receding and me eating not quite as shittily as before to avoid being fat, I feel the same as I did at 15. Like my personality is the same, just that Im a bit more jaded and a bit more weighed down by responsibilities like having a mortgage and such. But I really havent changed much compared to 20 years ago. Hell, even my reaction speed has barely degraded if online tests hold true.Honestly? It feels like people just LARP about being "adult" out of obligation and to be good role models for children. When the reality is, adults are just children that are better at lying. Thats how I feel, anyway.
I honestly only get nostalgic about very specific and personal experiences.I don’t miss a whole generation or talk about the good ol days. I think about stuff that actually happened to me.Example:My first 3DS was back in 2011.What am I nostalgic about?The fact that I got it back at my grandmother’s old house at Christmas.It was fun to just play the OOT remaster.Here’s the thing though:I don’t pine for that time. I simply acknowledge it as something I thought was nice and move on to my life.
>>743739083Yea, I dont know where it came from honestly
>>743739271>vanilla release - cata release>2 205 days>cata release - current day>5 705 daysTWICE AS LONG
>>743737828Tbf 1986-2006 is a ridiculous amount of technological and commensurate social change, literally the world shifting over the span of a few months or weeks sometimes due to the rollout of something that doesn't even get a headline. The early 2000s really bat above their weight.2006-2026, there's also a lot of change, but it feels like refinements over a long period and often not in the almost unambiguously positive ways from before.But it's still super weird to think that people starting college don't remember Obama being elected and have never known a world without Wii/PS3/360. That we were shitting our pants at the PS4 in college or our first years working while that was probably the first time they realized that console generations were a thing.
FFX came out 25 years ago.
>>743739020I’m Gen Z and honestly I don’t care anymore.
>>743739332This thread is more just about the passage of time and realizing how long ago some game releases rather than the "I'M OLD AND I CAN'T PLAY GAMES ANYMORE" kind of old person whining.
I personally think retro is a matter of advancement over time period.Mario Galaxy plays as well as its modern day contemporaries, so I don’t really feel it’s “Retro.”
>>743726740
>>743727895>skyrim released 15 years agoI still remember that my friend's kid's first birthday was on Skyrim's release date, and I was itching to go home and play so bad. It feels like yesterday.That kid is now 16 and recently got suspended for smoking weed and doing sexual stuff with a girl at school. That lil nigga already got laid earleir than 90% of /v/ and I have a hard time wrapping my head around that.
>>743739542See this is what I meantDoes this game feel all that different from those nowadays
>>7437393321. denial is more than just a river in Egypt2. The thread is more about how fast time flies.
>>743739125A 20 year old man is not a kid anymore
>>743737828That's because cultural progress stopped in 2007. The global monoculture is here, anon. There is no cultural transformation happening because everything is transactional, commodified, and inorganic. You live in a world where people actually question why you would rather have a person create art assets than AI. This civilization as it is, will reach no higher point than it already passed. You live in a world where people still hustle like it's the atomic age when that grift was finished off in 2020. A culture that prioritizes financial profit will wallow in garbage behaving like a cargo cult dedicated to the 90s.
As i got older i realized one thing - my parents were indeed fucking idiots just as 14-yo me thought.
>>743727424So long, gay Mario!
Would you believe me if I said this is arguably one of the least of my worries?
>>743739494You also don't know what "retro" means.
>>743739494I think of it as a specific time period because that's what makes sense to me. Video game history is only going to get longer and longer, and we need specific terms for time periods instead of just "now" and "then" because that's not scalable. Describing with relative console generations like "PS2-era" works somewhat, but then you're going to have an oldfag who says "6th gen" and that's going to confuse a lot of people nowadays because they weren't there for the first few gens and haven't been counting. It's a problem for public discourse to figure out eventually.
>>743739772Like, honestly I don’t really think we’ve progressed much in the last 10 years or so.Same shit
>>743739332Wait until you find out what children that are never "treated like children" are like.

I don’t aim to capture nostalgia with a PS2 artstyle.I aim to recapture its specific artistic appeal.
>>743739884...what are they like? Are you saying he is like that?
>>743726953and I still haven't played that game. I played persona 4 golden on my vita many years ago when I was in the hospital and it was very fun but I never time to sit down and enjoy lengthy games anymore. maybe some day.
>>743739951>but I never time to sit down and enjoy lengthy games anymore.Shitpost for 1 hour less each day on 4chinz. Youre welcome.
>>743727956I'm 31 and I literally look the same as I did a decade ago.
>>743739831We did not.in fact, we regressed. No physics, no big open worlds, no world reactivity, no player agency, everything is linear as fuck.But hey, we got DLSS bullshit now and videocard for 3500$ that wil literally burn itself.

Time is fucking gay.
Honestly, I think the real problem is a lack of human connection.That’s what people truly miss.Not the games they played, although those are part of it, but the people they played them with
>>743740367That and being young having the young spirit, the young energy. Sometimes nostalgia is true like when your town wasn't a third world shithole filled with migrants and sometimes it's just the missing of relationships, of your youth and how energetic you were back then or was able to be and the times you've spend with people.
>>743739568Neurologically they're still in adolescence.
>>743726953Thats a ps3 game so seems longer
>>743740367That only works for multiplayer games.The person waxing nostalgically over playing something like FFX for the first time is not secretly just missing the person they played the game with....because FFX is a single player game and they most likely played it alone.>>743740367Funny thing is, my home town went from boring middle class town with actual diversity. There WERE alot of 3rd worlders around. Then the Tech Boom happened....now it's all various gooks, ranjeets, and white yuppies. Everyone else including White people were pushed out.
>>743740680No.
>>743726740>breath of the wild is nearly 10 fucking years old now>hear people get nostalgic for it as their childhood zelda game>mine was OoTIt feels like it only came out a few years ago, but maybe thats because we've had fuck all for zelda games in 9 yearsA worse example is probably GTA5. I was never too into GTA but remember it coming out after highschool, and I frequently hear zoomers rave about how hyped they are for the next one and how gta 5 was their childhood game.
>>743740867See this is what I mean.Things haven’t changed much at all

>>743739613Lit senpai, I'ma keep it 100 your take is a banger and deadass early oughts chooms would def grok this post because culture hasn't shifted at all. XDTbf you're not completely wrong, but less emphasis on culture and more on the increasingly impossible load of prior economic commitments making it impossible to move forward or pivot to our benefit. And I'm not talking about the welfare state; look up how financialization has developed. We're basically bound by a suffocating array of interconnected obligations which were designed to allow the upper classes to skim off the top (though it looks increasingly more like a direct tap to drain the core capital of anyone not in their club). They did the same thing to Africa and then Toys R Us.

>>743741096Toys R Us was a modestly profitable and largely sustainable business that employed a knowledgable workforce and that provided measurable value to American communities. Private equity acquired it via a leveraged buyout as part of a larger conspiracy to dismantle America's brick-and-mortar retail eosystem and funnel consumers to Amazon and Wal-Mart, see Jeff Bezos' early career, wherein the buyer put up a small amount of capital and then were granted multiple times that capital in debt, which summer together represented the funding necessary to purchase the company. Think of it like a mortgage. However, unlike a mortgage, the buyers were not responsible for the debt; it was put on the balance sheet of Toys R Us itself - equivalent to tying the mortgage to the house itself, so that anyone who bought it would be responsible for servicing and paying down the debt, not the owners (who could walk away at any time without so much as a credit rating hit). Because Toys R Us suddenly had millions (can't remember if it was tens of millions or hundreds of millions) in debt payments it was required to make every single year, all of the funds needed to continue running or even revamp its business model as the market shifted over time vanished into some banker's pockets, and it was forced to declare bankruptcy. I'll reiterate that this was planned and in fact the goal of the buyout from the start.

Metal Gear Solid 5 is 11 years old.When I heard it was a decade old it freaked me the fuck out. I would have thought 5 years max.
>>743739469YeahI think many people are missing the point Doom. As in the new one came out 10 years ago. Doom 2016
>>743741714>the buyers were not responsible for the debt; it was put on the balance sheet of Toys R Us itself - equivalent to tying the mortgage to the house itself
>>743742007Find a non-fed study that contradicts it.
>>743742280it makes more sense when you realize the root of all evil is money
>>743742430No, i understand how it works, i cant understand why this bullshit is even allowed.How TF owner of the company isnt resposible for the company's debt?
>>743726884>Stop behaving like you're old! It's childish behavior!
>>743740867>>mine was OoTDamn dudeMine was oracle of agesNot even seasons cause my family couldn't afford more than oneBut I don't mean this to be superior cause there would be people who's childhood Zelda game was the NES oneJust pointing differences
Black Ops 2 when alphies started talking about how nostalgic they felt for fucking TranZit which is probably the worst fucking thing to happen to Black Ops Zombies
>>743742280Yeah. It should be illegal but somehow isn't.
>>743742627i tried blops 6 zombies and dear god its just way too easyused to feel like even punched guns lost their power around wave 30 and took a fair amount of bullets to down zombies but in blops 6 i feel like my gun always kills in one or two shots
>>743742534Because the PE firm is just a holding company but also controls how the purchased business operates. So it says, "Hey, Toys R Us, this debt is yours now," and TRU is obligated to assume responsibility for the debt. But the buyout was structured in such a way that the PE firm can sell or spin off TRU as it sees fit.TRU was forced to assume IIRC $5 billion in debt with no benefit to it.

>>743742873paypigs buy 100 dollar mounts for their collectionhonestly good on them for never increasing the sub price though fucking runescape used to be 5 dollars and now its as much as a wow sub for fucking cookie clicker and wow doesnt charge for a second account if you want to play classic or hardcore ironman
>>743742421>I need a study to be told what to think
>>743742836>also controls how the purchased business operatesBut it still not responsible for debt, that was created out of nothing directly by them?What kind of bullshit is this?
>>743742534>>743742836Oh sorry, I should be clear that the overarching point is that this is what our oligarchs have done to the entire economy. That's why inflation is so crazy and why we can't seem to afford anything dor the public good. The mechanism is slightly more complex and involves passive investment/pension funds and corporate capture of national fiscal and monetary policy, but the gist of it is that our rich motherfuckers just created a bunch of debt out of thin air, mostly to pay for things they want like stadiums and data centers and inefficient suburban planning, and told us to pay it back.

>>743739332Unrelated but I think what bothers me the most in regards to age is not how old I am physically but how young I am mentally. I’m a 28 year old child. I live with my parents, I’ve never once dated a girl, I know jack shit about owning and maintaining a home, I have very few practical skills outside of the ones I’ve developed at work. I do have a full time job and mostly function like a normal person when I’m clocked in, but the moment I go home I just shut myself away in my room and play videogames until I fall asleep. It’s like I’m still a fucking 12 year old playing Metroid Prime all fucking day and only leaving my room to go to school or eat dinner. I’m an eternal manchild and I worry it’s too late to “grow up”. Even if I try to develop as a person, I’ll always just be a somewhat retarded adult. I’ve mostly given up and have accepted that I’ll die alone after decades of doing nothing but working and playing videogames, but it still bothers me thinking about what my mom might be thinking. I know for a fact she’s incredibly disappointed and is slowly realizing her son is one of those retarded manchildren who live with their parents their whole lives. I just hope my two brothers can make up how much of a failure of a person I am. If it has to be me that has to give my parents a grandchild to be proud of, then good fucking Lord help me
I don't get this at all. Game generations always have a look to them, something released now doesn't feel like something released 20 years ago.Galaxy is a Wii game, even subconsciously why would you think it came out 3 years ago? PS4/PS5 games I can sort of understand because they barely feel like a separate generation at this point. Indie games maybe too as they aren't tied to a generation or artstyle.
>>743743230I can type it with bigger letters if that helps.

>>743740053this basically. COD MW2 and GTA4 came out and those two were basically the last videogames ever made. Every game ever since has just been a remaster of either of those two, and even those two are kinda similar in that most of the time you’re either following NPCs or shooting other NPCs
>>743743374>I’m an eternal manchild and I worry it’s too late to “grow up”.The biggest "grow up" moment for me was when it clicked that most people cant and wont do shit even for themselves unless you do it yourself or start kicking their butts and forcing them to do shit.
>>743740367Death Stranding sorta tries to do that despite being a singleplayer game. You have the blank slate world and then various structures automatically pop up with random usernames attached to them. You’ll cross a bridge fifty times and eventually memorize the username it belongs to and develop some sort of weird parasocial attachment to the player. It’s something similar to what Journey and Nier Automata do
>>743726884>You're not cute.>You're not funny.Yes I am.
I feel like overdosing and technically kind of dying in the ER when I was 16 made me skip the existential dread other millennials have about aging. I’m just glad I’m still here to enjoy the limited time I have left.
>>743743737shut the fuck up
>>743742430It’s not money. A material object can’t be “evil”. You’re thinking of jews. jews are definitely evil
>>743743803Sorry you feel that way.
>>743737735>Heh heh heh, you're going to rot and be miserable, JUST LIKE ME!
>>743743858go post your story on reddit for heckin wholesome medals i dont give a shit
>>743726740I just know i'm old now.>hey, remember Windows 95?!Yes, i do remember the third OS i used.
>>743743918I’d rather not.
>>743740867It's easy to forget that GTA5 was a PS3 game to begin with since they've been fucking "working on" GTA6 for so long.
>>743742261Compare DOOM II to Doom 3, then compare Doom 2016 to The Dark Ages.Dark Ages feels like a 2016 game, Doom 3 doesn't feel like a 1994 game.
>>743727956the only way is to kill yourself
>>743744309yeah games today just feel like 2016 games with RTX FSR DLSS HDR tacked on
>>743726740definitely skyrim, I remember watching this video on release dayhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoXFk-0NrDI
>>743745352I bought Skyrim in 2014. I had no idea of the elder scrolls back then. I only saw that it had something to do with fantasy and I wanted to play a fantasy game. I thought at first elder had something to do with elves (I'm not a native english speaker). I haven't even seen any gameplay or any trailer for it. The only thing I knew was the game packaging.
>>743743809An object can have such an overwhelming and predictable influence on people that it's appropriate to anthropomorphize them and call them evil, especially when it's ubiquitous and therefore almost impossible not to be in the presence of.
>>743745850*anthropomorphize it
>diablo 2>dlcWelp.
>>743726953FFUCK YOU IT'S NOT TRUE
>>743732935>/vg/ was made 14 years agoStill in the top 5 worst decisions this site ever committed to.
>>743734940I say this.
>>743746270at least there was some funny shitposting for a few days though
>>743726740>SMG was nearly 10 years old when this comic released>it's now nearly 20 years old
>>743746270yeah this i loved when /v/ was literally just starcraft 2 esports generals, league of legends generals and visual novel generals with a splatter of off topic shitposts on the side
>>743739332Same. I'm 30 and I still feel the same way as I did in my teens. I still like mostly the same kind of stuff, play the same franchises plus a couple more I have discovered over the years, play card games, hate the same kind of things, hell I even fap the same amount I did back in the day. Nothing has changed besides my faces looking older I guess?
>>743727956Facial sun screen every day even if only stay indoors.Drink a lot of waterEat healthyDaily physicals exercises focusing on cardio Don't smoke, drink or drugs8 hour of sleep everyday and keep a regular bed time. Avoid the sun from 9am to 4pm, but try to get some sun time every dayRegular sex with the girl you love ejaculating inside falling asleep cuddling post sexThere, now you'll age slower than 99.99% of people.
>>743746568You can't just say things like thisStop it
>>743746270/vg/ isn't bad.
>>743740048go look yourself at the mirror. is actually how you feel. you'll feel the same until you're in your 40s.
>>743747105Need sun, vit d
>>743752625Feels like someone doesn't want this thread around anymore. Didn't do its demoralization job
>>743739020>All stupid zoomer mentality because they think they wont age for some reasonMaybe stop generalizing everything based off wiggers from Tiktok?
>>743740095I'd change chatbots for scientific research, but agreed nonetheless. Getting sick of memes that are just an AI lazily putting a hat or a shirt on top of an image. Looking the thing and doing it myself takes less time than prompting the AI itself and that infuriates me the most.
>>743726740The kids call it "Fortnite" and it is very popular with them, I trust anons on 4chinz would never play such a normie and zoomer tier game, surely there wouldn't be a general for a literal kid's game...
