>>746565094>>746565258It's more interesting when you consider that is likely the most gaming he is getting for the whole year. We look at this as intense but the dude is holding a six figure job, I wager after those 5 days are up he won't be even playing 4 hours a week if at all. >>746565378what are you doing about exactly? Shitposting?
>>746565094Why do people post this kind of shit online? Do they not realize people are just going to laugh at him? Behind those fake cheers, support, upvotes and likes, they're laughing at him or cringing and using him as a joke, like OP is doing.No matter who defends this guy, deep down they all know they would never do something like this because it's embarrasing, you're willingly immortalizing an embarrasing moment of yourself for likes.
>>746565451same as it's ever been

>>746565094>36 year old father>gaymer dadwhy do breeders make this title their whole identity?
>>746565776Well for starters it's likely fake or exaggerated,remember these stories are made for getting engagement out of you. Look at you, OP makes a thread about this, you don't go, "ok?" and then go to another thread, you stop and gave a reply on what you think and in turn I responded to what you think, but in the end the guy in the OP isn't real, or rather he is only as real as what it takes to get you to reply.
>>746565808settled for the first woman that didn't run away from him screaming and wonders why he hates his life and escapes so much into entertainment to cope with it
>>746565714He probably plays 3-4 hours a day after putting his kids to bed. Also, he's a software engineer. He probably works remotely and plays on the clock.
>>746565094>>746565209All I get out of this is the WSJ are seething that a father is using his holiday time to do what he enjoys. GTAVI is slop but the guy planned this in advance and has an arrangement with his family.

>>746565094A real gamer is willing to make sacrifices.
>>746565094>No RDR's in his collectionThis guy is going to be mad as fuck if he skipped out on specifically RDR2 because from what I've seen in 6's gameplay, they're using that type of controls mechanics for on-foot navigation. Coupled with long as fuck animations like 'refueling your car' and shit like getting an item out of the fridge, I'm putting money that he's going to feel frustrated as fuck as to why the game is resembling his current reality instead of the power fantasy he actually wants to play
why would a 36 year old willingly throw away is freedom and youth for some garbage kids and wife? Muh lineage? Bitch you are not a rothschild lmao, just a pleb. Muh safety net when i'll get old? Not guaranteed, lots of neglected old people have sonsWhy inflicting upon yourself this form of slavery? I don't get itt. 35 old schizoid
>>746565094I'm 36 and cannot fathom having a kid much less 3 and I make decent money. A dual income would obviously alleviate some of that, but 5 days is some damn precious PTO to do something you should be able to squeeze in after work.
>>746565094>taking time off work to play a gameBitch mode, I wrote a script to log me in 2 hours before my day ended when classic wow launched, usually only had 10-15 minutes to wait after getting home, got my time in and still had enough sleep to get up the next day and make dosh.
>>746566148>No RDRs in his GTA collection how observant of you

>>746565094Okay. And?
>>746565907Because becoming a dad will overtake everything of your life and will, if you do it right, become 90% of your indentity.I'm also a gaymer dad and I sometimes point that out because my life is different from non dads to such a degree that non dads will never truelly understand and other dads instantly 100% understand.>I play portable only because I'm dad
GTA 6 is going be to the biggest vidya release of all time, normies everywhere are gonna take off for it like the Japanese used to do for Dragon Quest. The good news is that the holiday discounts this year for other games will probably be very good since they have to compete against GTA 6 this holiday season. Black Friday is 7 days after GTA 6 comes out, good luck getting any normalfag to care about your game during that period without heavy discounts.

>>746566259It's sensationalist crap for terminally online boomers, and bitchy Karens who can't install an adblock. The only types consuming commercial rags these days.Some are probably in management, too, and seething about employees/their significant other taking off that day to play video games.

>>746565451Users are all phone posters and third-world minorities now./vg/ is 90% gacha + mobile shit. If anons keep responding to these dogshit threads, is it truly the mods fault for having such a horrible userbase? I don’t blame mods at all, I blame the mentally-ill freaks who ruined this board.
>>746566647It didn't really exists until X was monetized and created a hustle culture, after that it was off to the races of getting as much eyes on you as possible so suddenly the kid that claimed his dad works at Nintendo can now make a living on his bullshit lies from both people believe him and mocking him/call him out.

>>746566873You are really trying to save the thread OP. I applaud the attempt.
>>746566259this is simply the $1bn Take Two are spending. Paying journalists for the advertising thru shit articles - so basically saying everyone will be playing their game. Yes it's 3 months out and this is what is to come.
>>746566896getting a gf is easy. getting a gf worth having is a herculean effort
>>746566474>they don't care what you think so long as you replyI thought bots were suppose to help with that issue. they just pay some company to cook the numbers of viewers/replies so advertisers waste money.
>>746565094>Advertising his social media accounts in the background >American Eagle >AMERICAAA>Ugly ass motherfucker >Balding Why is this even news? How embarrassing. A 36 year old man with three kids and he bragged about taking a five-day vacation to play a video game? Big deal. Most people are going to do that anyway. They'll take an entire week's vacation to play a fucking video game. $5 says his wife is cheating on him
The last time I took a week off for vidya was the release of Elden Ring. Shit was worth it
>>746567001Only if you are old, a girlfriend worth having is easy to fin in your school years if you are willing to look for them and ask them out but if you clown around until your late 20s or 30s you fucked your chances pretty bad for a lot of reasons.
>>746567089it's AI generated anon
>>746565094Why is this news? I know fathers in MMOs who take their days off for raid releases and other autistic shit too.
>>746567154Really? Could have fooled me, and that's saying something considering I use AI and thought I was good at spotting AI generated stuff. Impressive, if true. Is the article AI generated as well? >>746565209 It just looks real to me, so I have/had my doubts about the image being AI generated unless someone just generated an image to match the depiction of the man in the article.
>man caveenough room to gayme, but not to trespass on any other part of her house. Close enough to assist in whatever activities may occur upstairs. Let's hope Jason has a similar set up in the game.
>>746566259I was browsing LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Google Jobs and Indeed this morning, doing my weekly job search, and this was the front page article on LinkedIn.To me it really shows people the true normie state of video games and entertainment industry. GTA 6 is gonna sell TONS of copies just to normies alone. I do think long term GTA 6 online will flop, in many ways this could be the final GTA. But yeah I want everyone to know just how normie coded GTA 6 is like the Nintendo Switch is tendie coded. It's gonna sell like hotcakes.
>>746567101>a girlfriend worth having is easy to fin in your school yearsl m a omaybe you'll luck out but those years are just about as easy and shallow as it's ever gonna get, the ones who pair off and live happily ever after are quite the minority

A good & caring father would invite his son in to laugh while they run over pedestrians and beat up hookers. Together.
>>746566459retard
>>746567285>But yeah I want everyone to know just how normie codedThis is all of video games. Other then niche PC indie games/porn games. That's where the weirdos hang out.
>>746567313>the ones who pair off and live happily ever after are quite the minorityMost of them were serious about dating in a way most their peers weren't and that's the error made here is that people tend to understand what they need way too late to actually get it.
I didn't intentionally call out or schedule a vacation.But I was coincidentally very sick for the the release of Armored Core 6, and Nioh 3. Even with a fever, it was honestly pretty great just lounging at home, eating junk food, and playing video games for a week straight.
GTA story gameplay can be boiled down to an onrails drive to x > shoot people > drive to y slightly richer > shoot people theme park experience and people think it's going to be some amazing life changing experience worth rearranging weeks of their life for. This game is so overhyped it makes me sick.

>>746567427>Ashley Wongwell I can see now why OP hid that.
>>746567506Damn man I gotta remember that it releases so I can internally laugh at all my colleagues who take time off
I take 3-5 days off for every PoE league what's the big deal? (no girlfriend, no kids, never had sex if that matters)

If you lack workers, just don't open for that day.Your company/store isn't important.
>>746567529Now you're just jumping to the [spoilerWong [/spoiler] conclusions
>>746567589In some countries you get like 10 days of vacation per year and it is generally frown upon when you take a day off.
>>746567457>Most of them were serious about dating in a way most their peers weren'tA relationship being serious doesn't mean it's actually any good. Some get lucky, but a good deal of those tend to crash and burn right after school. There's not some specific age where happy lifelong marriages just happen if you're serious enough. but as you get older the pool of people your age who are capable of sustaining happy lifelong marriages definitely decreases, people who are good at being married usually don't have to do it 3+ times to get it right, and you're probably kidding yourself about which category you fall into
Remember when they did news stories back in 2007 about classes being canceled because of Burning Crusade? Or when GTAIV dropped and stores closed over a lack of workers? Anyone find it strange how regressive the OP is compared to that?
>>746567827Jesus... In Canada you can build up your days off. One time i hate like 10 weeks worth lol, got to the point that my boss was forcing me to take time off.
>>746567939Ours reset after a year but the company buys them out and pays you for any you didn't take. Preddy gud.
>>746567981yeah its kinda the same here. Thats why bosses will just force you to take a week off here or there lol.
>>746567854>A relationship being serious doesn't mean it's actually any good.You are missing the forest from the trees here, serious about dating doesn't mean they just committed to the first person they saw, they look at it as someone they are going to be with for the rest of their life and had the courage to not stay in situations that were serviceable but not ideal, that's where many people fuck up, they either don't try at all or just hang off of what they got first rather than keep looking. > There's not some specific age where happy lifelong marriages just happen if you're serious enough.Your spoiler is touching more into what my point was. Trying to date when you are 30 is like shopping for an item that came out ten years ago and was discounted: you might still find it new or at least in good condition, but the money and luck needed now, would have been easier to get the item when it was on shelves ten years ago but you weren't looking for it then.
Why can't these "men" just quietly take off? I remember my father took off for a few days so we could play Burning Crusade on release, and he didn't make a big fucking deal about it.

>>746570285Tradies work from 6 to 6 where I live. I often do that.Not even legally either.
>>746570285they have a weird federal and state system where Federal get to do certain laws but states get the maj. So Federal don't put say 4 weeks paid holiday leave enshrined in Federal law, it's up to stats to do that for each state. mostly they will just leave it to businesses to do it.
