You need to be 18 to post on this website.

I´ve seen this pathetic false narrative shitpost get posted a dozen times the past few months now.

Learn to DEDICATE TIME for gaming. It is that simple.
If you cannot find an hour or two per day, or the very least PER WEEK to sit down, chill and game, then you are already one brainwashed wage-slave faggot, heading to an early grave.

t. Pushing 40s, married, got house and shit, and I meet people + play shit all the time. The day I moved out of my parents´ place, couple decades ago, I suddenly got to play MORE vidya than ever before in my life!

>>749025960
We dont but we do get some time when Sick/injured,Holidays,Leaves,some weekends etc.
Thats why backlog is a thing

>>749025960
The main cost comes when you hit 35-40 and realize you have no kids and no partner in life and that it’s basically hopeless to acquire either one by that point because you are socially stunted from years of not going outside and only playing vidya. You have NO work experience or skills so cannot attract any mate beyond a 3/10 obese pig that will give you retard babies.

More then likely you simply won’t have kids. That might MIGHT be acceptable to some however what won’t be is when you start to get old and sick and don’t want to play video games anymore. Likely around 50 or earlier the gaming will take its toll and you will have fucked eyesight that even with glasses (which you can barely afford if ever to repair / replace) you can’t look at a screen for longer then 25 minutes without headaches. Anyway what happens if you need to go to the hospital or are super sick and need someone to help you? You don’t have friends, your family is likely dead or estranged or infirm. You have nobody.

NEETDOM is sacrificing the majority of your adult life to piss away the first 15 or so doing nothing but short term pleasures. Meanwhile the “wagies” by and large will be fairly comfy by 40, have a family, a house, and if not savings then the least a job that can make ends meet and then some. And by 50 they have even more wealth and security, and it goes from there.

You may think you just want to lie in bed all day or on the couch, game, eat junk, masturbate / sleep whenever you want, but that’s ONLY because you are young.

When you hit a certain age, that whole facade will crumble, and what will you have then? Cherished memories of playing TF2 with drunk idiots for the five hundredth night in a row? Or beating off to another hentai game?

NEETDOM is the ultimate monkey’s paw, deal with the devil. Don’t go down that dark road.

No, that is a literal zoomer homo ADHD fag invention, created by Youtube era toddlers who don´t actually enjoy gaming, but rather CONSOOM it like fast food.

>>749025960
You could start by playing a video game instead of bitching on here about it.

In this post :
Shit that has not been part of this reality for the past 20+ years.
I know shittons of people in their 40s to 50s who have never managed to secure a full-time job, and are struggling to cover even the basics now that the economy is down the gutter and prices keep rising. The do-it-all yes men like my own pops literally had to retire EARLY because they found themselves unable to find a job fitting their 40+ years of odd-jobs and oldschool networking, with the even older boomers waving their canes at smartphones and computorz since they no longer can just walk to a local bank or postal office and get served by a human being.

>>749025960
They stop wasting time scrolling /v/eddit and refreshing YT to find something to watch. You should try it, but you won't because you don't actually want to play video games.

This website is garbage but if you want to make anything happen in life, be disciplined with your time and make it happen. If you have maladaptive hobbies or behaviors, you should work on changing them.

Most of blackpilling and doomerism is pining for a life most people never have and given the causal chain of life, you weren't going to have even if things were somehow different. Start today and work on building the life you want.

But on topic, most games are simply not worth playing. They're mediocre and the time sink is too extensive to justify such an investment. It's unironically easier than ever to be productive.

HAHAHAHAHAYAHAH

>>749025960
I've so much fucking time to game that games are growing lame. I began walking last week, it's my new addiction

>>749025960
Anyone who says "I don't have enough time" for anything is a mouthbreathing retard
>I don't have enough time to cook
>I don't have enough time to work out
>I don't have enough time to play video-games
Yes you do you fucking idiot. You sleep for 8 hours, work for 8 hours, that gives you 8 hours of free-time. What are you doing those 8 hours? Doomscrolling on social media, that's what you're doing, you loser faggot

>>749026429
>>749026487
Absurd cope
I'm sure you'll be better off being a neet in 20 years

>>749026653
Where's YOUR family, anon? Where's your house with the driveway and picket fence? Your 8/10 wife and two kids?

>faggot goes dead silent
That's right. Never speak up again, nigger.

>>749026619
You don't have 8 "free" hours. That time also includes
>getting ready for work
>commuting
>chores
>hygiene
>eating
>gym or other physical activity to maintain health
>getting ready for bed

Just be incel if you want to play games

>>749026004

Were zoomers using 4chan in 2006?

>>749026619
someone still lives with his mummy

Just get a skill that allowed you to WFH. You save so much time commuting and prepping meals.

>>749027575
The oldest Zoomers were already 10 years old... so yes.

>>749027693
AI is overtaking most WFH jobs

>>749025960
Only in weekends, sadly.

>>749026128
Holy projection

>>749026093
You can't enjoy games playing in 2h speed runs I tried.
That's why I quit my job and moved to the woods

>>749025960
Being underage and employed is against the rules.

>>749026128
Shalom.

>>749025960
Most people don't do full time education plus a job plus active social and family life. Of course you have zero free time.

>>749025960
>Genuinely, how do people (especially adults) find the time to game anymore?
we're all going to hell for being hedonists just how it is

>>749026128
>gaming gets old and boring and you'll feel like shit every single day when you get old
>the solution is to become a wage slave and work for a woman and kids who hate you until the moment you die!

Do people ever follow through with this retard reasoning and ever come to the conclusion that they need a family? I already can't handle the amount of bullshit from not having a life, what the fuck could possibly compel me to get what is essentially a second unpaid job so that I won't have a moments peace ever again? My dad is 75 and he still works every single fucking day for my nagging bitch of a mom, it's her mission in life to not give anyone around her any sort of peace and quiet, women genuinely do not like it if you are content with anything being as it is.

>>749025960
I honestly watch more videos about games than actually playing them nowadays. But I usually do still play them when I'm completely done with all my work and assignments or when I'm free after exams.

>>749026128
>You have NO work experience or skills so cannot attract any mate beyond a 3/10 obese pig that will give you retard babies.
That's every single young man today, 98% of new jobs in August 2026 in the US were given to women. If you think NEETing is a choice, you're mentally a boomer. There are no jobs, no dating opportunities, and no communities.

>>749031713
just don't marry a woman you hate, pretty simple
>I hate all women
then marry a man, I dunno

>>749026128
As a wise man once said: I am entitled to a virgin non-fat wife, I am entitled to a good salary, I am entitled to not live in a niggercattle plantation. If I don't get those things, I will just refuse to work. Simple as.

>>749033803
>just don't marry a woman you hate, pretty simple
Sounds simple but it's not that easy to get the ideal woman

>>749026128
Just kys when you're 60/70 and can't cope being alone and you still got more enjoyable time out of your life than someone being a wage slave for the majority of their waking hours for the majority of their life

>>749033965
I didn't say ideal, I said one you don't hate. Ideally one you like well enough to overlook whatever you find "unideal"

>>749025960
Here's my experience anon. The first gaming console I bought with money from my first job was the PS2. I only owned a couple of games. I didn't play them much once I beat them. The PS2 was only used to watch DVDs I rented after work once a week. The same situation with college. I did my work and homework and focused on my dating life. The video game days were mostly childhood and early high school before adult life started. I only started sinking tons of time in video games as an adult once I was on disability and had spare time. Though in the last few years for health reasons I haven't had the energy to enjoy them as much. There is no reason to worry about it really. You are lucky in a way because not having time means that you don't have to buy new games. You can play the same game for years and it will still feel like it's a wonderful experience when you get a few minutes to enjoy it. If you are even unlucky enough to have time to play video games, you'll eventually stop enjoying them.

>>749026004
larpers live here too…

>>749034030
pretty much this, unironically. just enjoy life and check out when you're done.

there's no guarantee you won't die of ass cancer or someone on their phone running you over while you're busy wage slaving at the ripe old age of 41. just fuckin do what you want and if you live long enough to be unable to cope with whatever state your life's in, just return to the void. ez game, ez life
