What is it with shmup players playing the same shmup over and over for years, decades, after 1CC it hundreds of times and not even showing a handcam video to prove their runs for example Gradius3 freako

it's SUNK cost fallacy inside the head of an autistic mind most likely

>>
>>12488134

>A wall of bait and unreadable word salad is shmup discussion

>>12488108
Playing a game for others instead of the enjoyment of doing it is the act of a failure.

You: constantly switching games, never satisfied, drug addict seeking next fix

Shmups player: plays the same shmup for maximum enjoyment everyday, every year, always content

We are not the same

>1 shmup for life
I unironically want this and been playing shmups for years and have narrowed down what I really like to 4 shmups but still not sure what THE ONE is
>>
shmups are just one of those genres where it feels good to lock-in and focus
they also tend to have really good soundtracks
I played rhythm games a lot growing up for the same reason
the amount of concentration they require makes you forget about other shit when you're in the zone
>>
>arcade-likes
Ok I'll bite
how do I play Metal Slug X or 3 or any of them actually without input lag and tons of inputs getting eaten?

>just overclock bro
I overclocked mame and got rid of SLOWDOWN, but input lag and EATEN INPUTS are still big issues super GAY TROON tier

is there a legit port that runs really well? better than mame?
>>
yet another insane shmup player playing the same shmup for decades

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HO8eCnJp84

how do we fix this ?
>>
>>12489345
>how to fix this
tell him better games exist
>>
>>12489345
>>12489345
what's the appeal of doing this
>>
>>12489697
It's called autism.
>>
>>12489345
>>12489705
but its not even a shmup with great scoring that benefits from such insane playtime

you just keep looping it over and over and the difficulty gets capped iirc
