I used to play intense multiplayer games for 6-8 hours nonstop when I was a kid, but now 2 hours is my absolute limit, even for low intensity game. currently playing Expedition 33 and it's just so tiring...

yeah, SF6 has me like that. shit literally burns you out

>>747553785
At least you can still play.
I just launch the game, stare at the menu for 2 minutes, contemplate how annoying it's going to be to have to play and think and I close the game.

not that much unless you're already burnt out from wagecucking(considering your age), and even then, i remember i can still enjoy playing cyperpunk for hours when i was working 2 jobs, so i genuinely think it boils down to whether you love the game or not, like some people are really performative with this, they basically psyop'd themselves into "enjoying" things that they don't like, like they still doesn't enjoy it but somehow they say they do, it's hard to put into words, but for me the distinction is "oh my fucking god, i finally beat it, what a god damn chore that was" instead of "that was interesting experience/thing to learn"

Eat a healthier diet, move around more, go to the doctor and have him do blood work to check your markers/metrics on everything. Make sure you get on a regulated sleep schedule, avoid caffeine late at night or before bed, etc.

I know some people think it's snake oil, but eating healthier does give you more energy. If you live on fast food and stuff high in carbs then of fucking course, you'll always be tired. You eat a big fattening meal and within two hours you're super sleepy and hungry again. I used to eat fast food five times a week, and when I started eating healthier, I noticed I was sleeping better and I had more energy. I'm somewhat convinced that people with sleeping and stamina issues have them because of their diet primarily. You probably aren't moving around enough either and aren't getting enough sleep regularly. Caffeine is fine in moderation, but energy drinks are terrible for you. I was addicted to them, so I know. It's hard to ween yourself off of them.

Have you been getting enough sleep and enjoying time out with your friends?
Have you tried anything new recently that has made you reconsider your perspective perspective or potentially try out a new hobby? New movie genre or a play?
Have you been doing any exercise like lifting heavy? Gardening?
Or maybe done stuff that is saving money as well?
Video games are fun additives after the good hardwork is over. Working/Corpo does not count. Browsing /pol/ and /v/ all the time does not count.

Yes the world is filled with problems (jews, nigs, women), but there also many beautiful things to enjoy as well. Harden up and stop being a faggot.

>>747555868
Since I don't know, PS3, I guess? That's when games started becoming more and more like movies, and those shitty PC save scumming games also started becoming more normalized, and they've only become more common since then. You get games with no real failure state. Like, there's no big "Game Over" where you have to restart from the beginning, or at least restart the stage, because the dad is already tired and sleepy and just wants to play a """video game""" for probably an hour at most

the thing to understand is that exercise will cost you energy in the short term yes, but in the long term it will give you more energy than you had before you started.

People who say this are just fat and consume only trash food.

>>747556391
this is the worst thing about getting older. back in the day I could subsist of pizza and soda and feel fine and full of energy. now I feel like shit the day after if I really overindulge on shit food.

>>747556349
Assuming a 20 year old and 30 year old have the same level of energy, there's still the issue of changing interests. Video games offer so much when you have so little as a kid. When you're a kid, you can't go anywhere except some approved area, you can't date girls, you can't do much of anything since you have no money. Now, you can go out and hike that really tall mountain, you can go race your car on a race track, and you can buy a drink for a woman.

Also, I couldn't stand reading when I was a kid. Mostly because I was shit at reading comprehension. What made me get over it was Lord of the Rings. Then, reading became a real alternative to video games. I shifted my free time to reading instead of slop vidya. I just focus on the really good vidya and the really good literature.

>>747556290

you don't need explanation, it's just contrarian faggots being faggots as always, ever see your boomer parents hating on metal back when it's popular and some other young kids on your class also starts hating metal because they think it's childish? that's basically it.
i'm not saying that popular means good and you should be a goycattle and follow the crowds but there is some truth to that, as in look at metal, the band being hated are pop metal, but the one that's technical and autistic in nature are literally great like power metal or prog/math rock for example.

Zoomer is a well defined age range between 14 to 29. I lived through the Millennial friction with anime, it was never as bad as this. I don't remember a time on 4chan from 2008 to 2020 where people so brazenly hated on anime. In fact if you hated on anime people would just tell you to fuck off, anime website nigger. Nowadays, you see tranime, anime pfp opinion rejected, etc, on zoomer TikToks and on X and when I play multiplayer games you'd hear kids shitting on anime pfps. Back when I was 18, nobody cared if you had an anime pfp. People shat on you for having a My Little Pony pfp though.

>>747558126
why are you speaking like you're still baffled by retarded contraritarianism for the sake of contrarianism? again anime is popular right now, it's only natural for certain people to feel the need to express "look at how special i am, you all are beneath me" with nothing substantive to say? they just want to look cool and edgy.

>>747553785

Everything I did younger I did in excess

>playin any game I got addicted tor like 4-12 hours

I can still do both, but I just get too bored.
The spark and novelty is dead, I don't know how to fix that without relying on shitty meds, drugs or stimulants.
People say games are worse now, which is ture to some degree, but for me the bigger issue is that people have changed - you won't find the kind of fun, casual, memeing and bantering coop/pvp you saw in early 00's
I also hate discord, reddit and even /v/, but it's like the only decent place for anonymous discussions

>>747558432
I think that's a factor, but I have some thoughts that your explanation is only surface level. For example, popular anime in the west was like Dragonball Z, Berserk, Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Cowboy Bebop, FMA, Death Note. Sure, girls had a few like Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura, Inuyasha.

Now compare that to Gen Z defining anime: Demon Slayer, MHA, Chainsawman, Jujutsu Kaisen. (Of course I omitted a lot, because everything else is shared with Millennials which still watches anime, but this list for Gen Z is definitive Gen Z and less appealing to Millennials)

If you look at this list, what does it tell you? It seems like generation defining anime have gotten quite different... Millennial anime, I think, is more palatable for a general audience. Sure, Naruto cosplayers may be cringe, but you can safely show your boomer (literal boomer) dad Cowboy Bebop or Berserk and he'd love it. However, you cannot show your boomer grandfather Jujutsu Kaisen or Demon Slayer. I think this is another major factor of generation differences in divisiveness when it comes to anime.

>>747557450

first of your sampling is retarded, i'm zoomer and i watch bleach naruto, dbz pretty much everything you listed and then some, hell my fucking 12yo nephew also watch naruto, if you want to make real and good faith argument then try not be a divisive faggot that puts everything into us vs them perpective.
second you still can't show your boomer parents berserk or cowboy bebop because they would think you're some kind of weird fucker the former because how fucked up the narrative are and the latter for the blatant nihilism on the protagonist.
third you're a pretentious faggot that can't comprehend simple thing as people hating on popular stuff because they're a loser and want to be popular but don't want to put their time in the scene.

>>747559465
To elaborate, if you were a Millennial and you had the option to show an older relative an anime that's popular with your generation, you had the option of Berserk or Cowboy Bebop.

Now step into the shoes of a Zoomer. Your option for showing what's popular for your generation, maybe Frieren is the best option? But it's still not as cool as Cowboy Bebop or Berserk.

This places a social stigma on what anime means for your generation. It means that it could be more shameful. And perhaps in an attempt to pretend to be mature, you try to adopt an older perspective and say it's trash, it's slop, it's tranime even. This is my current thought why anime is more divisive for Gen Z than Millennials.

>>747559505
So given that you haven't lived through the Millennial's experience with anime, what is the source for your insight for your comparison?

>>747559627
I'm not saying Gen Z have not watched Dragonball Z or Pokemon or One Piece. They may have, though likely less than Millennials. I'm speaking of what anime defines their generation, and is most popular with their generations. You are speaking of exceptions. Why provide exceptions to provide evidence for your argument? The average 16 year old has more likely watched Demon Slayer than Cowboy Bebop, admit it. While Millennials literally watched it on TV on Cartoon Network.

>>747558941
>Demon Slayer, MHA, Chainsawman, Jujutsu Kaisen
Those aren't "zoomer anime", they're just the most recent seasonal shonenslop that underages and spics watch. This used to be Bleach, Naruto, DBZ, One Piss etc
With time half of the people watching those will grow out of anime entirely never realizing there's anything outside of shonenslop, a quarter are spics who are genetically incapable of growing up beyond shonenslop and the other quarter will get into other genres as they grow up

>>747553837

>>747559945
You can call it something else, but it's the most popular anime with Zoomers, or are you saying it's not? You can tell me what anime is more popular among Zoomers that I haven't included, sure, but Demon Slayer, CSM, JJK, are definitely in the top 10 most watched anime by Gen Z. I am quite confident in this. You can add Frieren, Bocchi the Rock, to the list.

Gen X = those who have only encountered internet as an adult
Millennials = those who experienced the early rise of internet in their early teen, introduced to social media in mid/late teen
Zoomers = those who grew up with a fully developed internet and growing social media. never really consciously experienced pre-internet world, but could still feel subconsciously nostalgic of it.
Gen Alpha = those who grew up with a fully castrated internet and social media. the generation of pure dopamine. pre-internet world is TOTALLY alien to them.

Because what you retards call zoomers are teenagers and closer to gen alpha and it's normal that they only watch stuff that's already popular because they need to fit in with their classmates. If you go to the upper ranges of your retarded zoomer definition that's 25+ you'll see they fit into the three categories I described
>>747560172
Like the other anon said, these generational terms are retarded and outdated for the internet age with how fast pop culture changes nowadays and it's made worse by Gen Z still being partially underage and the teenagers naturally having little in common with adults. Maybe in 30 years this bracket will make more sense but even then, a 30 year old zoomer remembers when all of his childhood youtubers regularly dropped nigger and faggot while a 14 year old says "ahh" outloud in fear of google algorithm demonetizing his social credit score

Why are you so incensed by the question: "Is Gen Z more divisive about anime than Millennials?"

Really it's a simple question, and as a Gen Z it seems like anime is quite divisive, and if you want to stop talking about it, it's fine. I apologize for bringing this divisive topic to discussion.

>who made frieren? who made jjk? tell me their age and tell me what generations they are.
Both authors are Millennials, but their primary audience is Gen Z. For the same reason Cowboy Bebop was made by Gen X and the primary audience is Millennials. For reference I have no hatred for Gen X or Gen Z. I'm just discussing an observation. I love my Zoomies, but I find your complexity about anime quite interesting.

The worst part is that, because of my age, I can't play action games anymore; new games have such tight timing that I simply can't press the buttons fast enough. I don't get why everyone loves getting one-shot in less than a hundredth of a second.

>Is Gen Z more divisive about anime than Millennials?
My favourite part about zoomers is history revisionism and claiming back in the days people were bullied for liking anime in school. I'm 32 and wore anime bags to school, literally no one gave a fuck, literally no one got bullied for anime. I talked about anime with a bunch of girls back then.

>>747560986
Actually, the statement that Gen Z defines a range of date of births is more logically correct than it is to say 0C is the freezing point of water. In fact, 0C is not the freezing point of water universally. It is the freezing point of water given a specific atmospheric pressure, and atmospheric pressure is different in all parts of the world.

Hmm, if I was a Zoomer, I still thinking Frieren would still be the best Gen Z anime to show to a gramps. It's probably relatable too, since Frieren is old and slow, and old people are more introspective and think about their younger years, much like what Frieren does throughout the show. I would hesitate to show Demon Slayer because there are quite a few anime fanservice scenes, at least more awkward than the restrained ones in Frieren.

I am trying to be genuine. But I am not trying to not be divisive. Me being divisive is not my concern, my concern really was just to provide and examine differing arguments for this question:

>"Is Gen Z more divisive about anime than Millennials?"

When there are different arguments, it will naturally be divisive (because people are arguing different points!). Now if I said I am not trying to be divisive, while asking for different counterpoints, that would not be genuine.

>it is divisive because there's only a fraction of loser faggots that can't even blend in with passive consumption hobby which is very low investment and low barrier to entry such as anime, like music and sports is still a thing for zoomers.

I think this is a valid factor. Losers will hate things, random things, for no good reason. The question I will extend is, what about the Millennial losers? Is your argument that Gen Z has more losers than Millennials that the number of extra losers accounts for the extra perceived divisiveness?

I have another theory that supplements all the points we have: Gen Z is just more terminally online than Millennials were. There is just so much more noise because Gen Z likely posts content online 2-3x what Millennials posted online in 2005 when we were on MySpace.

>>747561925
It's more than the characters are like 13 and they're naked, and I think that is always going to be more awkward than just... Frieren.

It's not very horny, but the main characters are all underage and there are fanservice scenes with them unclad. Or I could just show them a cool ass show, Frieren. That has none of those awkward scenes and puts an old person self-insert as the main character.

I understand why you would not notice, it's very standard anime fanservice. I only know because my sister played it on TV in the living room and the whole family was watching, and when there was one of those scenes, parents went awkward, went back to eating dinner not watching the TV.

The idea of playing a game is more enjoyable than doing it. As much as I want to do literally all quests on Morrowind, Get all awards on Viva Pinata, unlock literally everything on Naughty Bear, see all of the content on Pit People and so on the truth is the end result will never be worth the effort put into it. I learn I actively hate the 60+ hour long games that use the time investment as some kind of selling point. Palworld is fun because I can successfully ignore the base building and hell most of the game if I want to by collecting free loot on the endgame areas. Earth Defense Force is fun because I can skip straight to hard if skilled enough and get some of the best weapons out of the gate and skip what may as well be the tutorial weapons. I want games with 60+ hours of content but can be completed within 6 if you so wish to do so. Games that respect your time enough to let you choose the pace to play it at. I learn that I don't hate busy work, despite having the option to skip most of Palworld I didn't. I just hate when the busy work is only not optional but designed into the game to actively waste your time. Dead Rising have an achievement for killing a town population worth of zombies. Something you can choose to ignore but even if you accept the "challenge" you can save it for the end of the game. I feel a lot of games nowadays decide to give such "challenges" as normal progression out of fear of a player finishing the game too quickly. The joy of playing the game should be the game itself. If you have to filler it up then the game was already a failure. I WANT to complete Viva Pinata and maybe even Naughty Bear one day but I have to accept there is a finite amount of time and maybe 100%ing Morrowind just isn't worth the possible 3 other games I could had play instead. Maybe one day I'll play Pit People without the goal of seeing every bit of content but simply just the main story. Hell maybe I'll enjoy it better as a result.

ok you win you're right. You are fat because you're older also because of your genetics. Your decisions in life have 0 effect on your body composition. People like me are just genetically gifted and way better in every way I will now go and check my gene privilege.

I'm the same and it was burnout mixed with the ADHD that caused the burnout. I'd sit and stare at the wall for hours desperately wishing I could start playing games or would enjoy playing them. It wasn't depression because I knew what I wanted but the moment I tried, it didn't satisfy me and I couldn't get immersed.
At one point I was going to the gym 5x a week and trying to socialize and I wanted to die, I never felt better because nothing was giving me any desire to do the things that mattered to me.
I can only get Concerta in my country and I take a dose on the weekends and it actually has helped me read books and do things I like doing. I'm an unusual case apparently because the stress of work keeps me going, but I fall apart on weekends or long vacations and usually lie down and rot. I still can't play games much but I'm so much happier now that I'm not existing just as a cog in the machine.

I legitimately do not understand people who can wake up, exercise, have a whole grooming routine for their face and maybe even hair after a shower among other stuff like actively going to the gym multiple times a week. I feel like if I don't get at LEAST 3 hours in a given day I would want to kill myself thinking the life was no longer worth living at that point. I like the option of being able to do literally nothing if I so wish to do so.

>I'm an unusual case apparently because the stress of work keeps me going
not unusual at all, especially given that concerta works for you.
you basically have a dopamine mobilization problem (i.e. deficit) which happens whenever you dont have work stress going off.
> body/brain observes stress => body calls for adrenaline => body summons dopamine => dopamine consumed to produce adrenaline to stay alert during stress

that said i'd still strongly advise against regularly taking anything that messes with dopamine or serotonin
i would however, advise you to take natural dopamine precursors, i.e. tyrosine, preferably with a specific form of vit b6, known as p5p (p5p B6), to help fix the deficit.

this has nothing to do with age. I have known people in their 60s who still ran marathons and hiked mountains every weekend. the male body peaks strength wise in his 30s. you are using every excuse in the book to justify your lazy bum lifestyle.

Media withdrawal. The more dopamine draining the better, ie tik tok, reddit, video games. Some go all the way down to music.
Dopamine fast is unproven bro science but it's the same principle.

>>747569271
Don't listen to that NPC, medication will fuck you up in other ways. You are probably depressed, which means that there's something wrong with your life right now. Try to fix it and you will get better. If you have a good life but you still feel anhedonia you might have a health problem. Do some blood test, most people are Vitamin D and Magnesium deficient (in the case of men, women are more likely to have low iron). Or you might have sleep apnea.

you are right, lots of therapists will try to put the blame on the patient because recognizing we live in a fucked up society would be antisemitic. Society sucks, but you need to learn to forget about it. Don't read the news, they are demoralizing and you can't do anything about it. Embrace clownworld and laugh at the absurdity of the modern world instead.

every game? see a doctor
if only some specific games, try stuff like permanent dot on the screen and shit. I for example cant play dark messiah of might and magic. can play any other source game but this one just makes my head hurt after five minutes

>>747567249
I'm lucky that I can still do dairy. I think it's probably related to sleep apnea because even extremely basic foods like bread can trigger it if I lie down too soon after eating.
Throwing a pinch of baking soda into pasta sauce is a life saver, but my doctor told me it was bad because I already have high blood pressure and it's technically added sodium. Well fuck it, I'd rather die early than eat raw celery or spend 15 minutes prepping a salad for every meal.

90% of anhedonia's effects are nullified if you straight up quit social media and news cold turkey.
And yes, both jewtube and 4chan are social media.

23 and all I ever have time for is 1-1.5 hours of some multiplayer shooter before I either have to do something else or get bored and turn it off. My library is fucking stacked with excellent single player games, but every time I try to play one I just give up after I'm maybe 45 min to 1 hr in and I realize I'm not really having any fun, whereas I can drop into some multiplayer shooter and immediately start having fun. Maybe I'm just a total casual nowadays, maybe I've mostly lost interest in gaming, maybe both.

For real, I've got a similar issue where I'm often having a hard time doing more than 2 hours of a game at a time but I'm perfectly aware it's just a struggle to stay interested, I can easily do more if I find a game I really vibe with.
I hate this meme of people pretending they shrivel to dust the moment they turn 30. My fucking Dota stack turned not-even-30 a couple months ago and would just non-stop whine about how they can't keep up with them young'uns anymore and that we should play something less demanding. They eventually quit to play League just because they perceived it to be easier mentally, and I am STILL salty over this shit.
If you're 30 and genuinely feel like a wreck then it's not age that's killing you. I'm a fat fuck and even I know to walk 20 minutes if I feel particularly sluggish. With modern healthcare it is very possible you'll live til 80 and more. Are you seriously going to pretend you're too much of a stale rotten sack of shit to do anything for 50 years of your life? Fucking please.

You are depressed, not old.

>>747567458
33 and enjoy games more than ever. You have some kind of health problem.

>>747554515
Thats a you problem. Its absolutely not normal to get tired so easily. Maybe go get a checkup, exercise, etc.

>>747555809
The whole "eat well" thing is a meme. I legitimately tried going on a diet where I cut out caffeine, ate predominantly fruits and vegetables and lean proteins with little to no oils and nothing processed. And I felt almost no difference at all in terms of energy, sleep or general malaise.

>>747571409
Just play whatever game an hour or so a day. I do and I beat plenty of games every year. If you forget game mechanics or story events overnight then you have bigger problems to worry about than finding time to game.

>tfw I didn't look after my body in my early 20s and now I have lower back pain that gets bad after a few hours sat down playing vidya
>work rotating shifts so my sleep schedule is fucked
Some of it has been my weird autism about timekeeping, I admit. e.g. If I have less than 2 hours to kill, I won't read or play a game, because I'm paranoid about getting too involved. But at least a good part is that I am paying the price for spending my formative years desperately TRYING to be a shut in. Turns out, the time spent inside gaming was made better by the stuff I was trying to hide away from, and now I don't have the option of getting any of that back.
At least if I jog a couple of times a week my back doesn't hurt quite so much

>>747554014
I think people like you don't understand what life is like when your health starts to fail. I'm going on 15 years with a sleep disorder. I used to pray that I had sleep apnea instead because that can actually be treated for some people. Whatever the fuck I got just leaves me no options at all for treatment. On top of that I have three spine issues. There is no sitting position or laying down position that is comfortable. Standing and moving around is the only thing that feels right. You try getting into games when you feel like depression would be an improvement in how you actually feel because whatever the fuck state you live in is a whole other level of hell. You can love video games and still struggle to enjoy them at certain points in life.

Dude, it's crazy how few people get this. It sucks not having energy. You can force things but you're always forcing things. The only people in life I've met that actually understand what I'm saying when I talk about not having energy are people who are literally dying or elderly because it's so outside of reality for most people that only ever felt tired because they worked or stayed up a few nights. They don't get what it means to truly be depleted all the time.

You engage in surface level consoomerism to cope with stress at best.
Tell me how you find time to do anything when you are working job, working out, doing chores, eating, taking care of yourself, shopping, sleeping, resting etc. That's right. You sacrifice your health or something else instead.

Gamer lifestyle is incompatible with wagie lifestyle.

I feel fine, I sleep fine and I still sit down and play video games for close to 10 hours a day

>>747553785
Stop being fat and out of shape. I'm 36 and can still play for 8 hours+ if I have the time.
And I do, just not often because I don't have the time.
Interestingly enough is that the real reason oldfags can't play for long periods of time is mainly because they're burnt out on gaming.
The sense of wonder and adventure is long gone and the only thing helping me play for long periods of time is when I'm playing with friends and my wife. Especially when goofing off while drinking.
