>Video games are bigger than music and movies combined! Everyone plays video games these days! Everyone is a gamer!
Did you know most people who are "into games" have beaten less than 5 games in their life, if any?

Most """""""gamers"""""""" put a couple hours into a game, drop it, then go around saying "Oh man...THAT game? Classic bro...total classic...". Most """""""gamers""""""""" are so shallow they'll stick to one genre or play the same 3 games they got into as a teenager well into their 30's and 40's. The people who actually play and beat hundreds of games in various genres from various era's aren't even 1% of all the people running around saying "Oh yeah, I'm into video games". 99.9% of these people are poseurs.
>>
You have no research to back up your claims besides being a jaded loser. Fuck off.

I accept your concession.

>You have no research to back up your claims
Let's see your most played games anon. I'm sure you're a respectable guy, you put a lot of time into video games, it's a major interest of yours I'm sure. So it shouldn't be too hard for you to prove that...right?

To be fair, the current gamer is now getting filtered by GTA 3 of all things and everything MUST be remade in order to give out hints and modern updates to hald hold and give directions so the current player is NEVER lost. It's pathetic how easily people give up on games much less an actual challenge to their brain cells.
>>
Probably true. I was like that until around 2024.
>>
>>744697561
hand hold*
No idea how I fucked it up that badly.
>>
Nope. You made the claim, pal. Burden of proof is on you. Feel free to hurl slurs and make accusations if it makes you feel better for being intellectually dishonest. I know children embarrass easy.
>>
>>744697561
>To be fair, the current gamer is now getting filtered by GTA 3 of all things
Did it get a rerelease or something?

>Nope. You made the claim, pal. Burden of proof is on you.
What I said in the OP is self evident to anyone in-the-know.
>>
Most people's tastes are extremely limited, they only really enjoy things that are from their formative years, or at least remind them of those. And the things they experienced were all mainstream slop.
>The people who actually play and beat hundreds of games in various genres from various era's aren't even 1% of all the people running around saying "Oh yeah, I'm into video games"
I am the 1%.

NTA but...
Who's "the know"?
>>
>>744697306
>>744697714
You are clearly some of the casuls OP is referring to.
>>
"It's self evident! It's just obvious!"
Mmhm. Didn't make it into post secondary, huh.
>>
>>744698216
>Who's "the know"?
...you are too ESL to be posting on this website. Go away.
>>
>>744698349
You may go now.

Who are you talking to retardbro this isn't reddit

>>744698056
As a neet who has spent too much time on this board. I've noticed an unusual uptick of GTA 3 threads probably from the "recent" Definitive Edition that came out a few years ago. Just today there was a thread crying about the lack of a map in that game.
>>
Still waiting for that evidence, OP.
>>
>>744698490
Ok.
>>
>>744698481
Probably some streamer playing it. Half the people you see shitting on games don't even play them, they just watch streamers. I mean it's not uncommon these days to run into people who'll unironically say "anything before the PS3 is unplayable".
>>
>>744698212
Damn, that game looks cool. What's it play like?
>>
>>744698682
Action platformer thing. Kinda plays like dollarstore Hagane, fun enough for a playthrough and it looks great.
>>
>>744698357
I know what "in the know" means I'm asking who would be the individuals in the know here.
Is it "gamers"? is it "4channers"? What secret club are you in that gives you some knowledge the rest don't.
>>
>>744697247
You sound like a miserable faggot nobody ever wants to interact with.
>>
>>744698850
You sound like you got called the fuck out and you're seething about it.
>>
>>744697247
yeah.
>>
>>744698836
>Is it "gamers"? is it "4channers"? What secret club are you in that gives you some knowledge the rest don't.
It's this dark, mysterious, unknown group of people who actually play and beat video games for the sheer joy of it.

Strange because my brother is the normiest normie on the fucking planet and he plays and beats games all the time.
I think the last game he was telling me about was the gba dragon ball rpg. You are not special or unique because you play Vidya mate.
>>
What's so wrong about playing only Sonic Three and knuckles everyday, hmm?

Oh well gee golly gosh, I forgot your brother is the sole arbiter of truth in this world.

You've already failed.

And you are?
>>
>>744697247
Most of them just play ball and gun slop, live service games and Minecraft.
>>
>>744699856
I'm commenting on observable trends and easily verified statistics, and your only rebuttal is "but I know this one guy". Just accept you got called out and move on, stop digging yourself deeper.
>>
>>744699971
h-he's just pretending

>>744699971
You mean the ai post?

>he cited AI
YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP LMAO OP IS AN ACTUAL JEET
>>
>>744697306
we got data from trophies and achievements. You can't play digital games without an online connection, so you can bet is accurate. Less than 10% actually beat the games they play.
>>
>>744700710
anon, less than half of most gamers get the very first achievement. Most people don't even play a single hour or beat the tutorial of the games they buy.
>>
ANYWAY
