Someone explain to be where hot girls cosplaying as videogame characters come from cos there's a gap in my knowledge about this shit.

Like all I remember are booth babes of the late 90s to early 00s then -gap- and then actually hot girls who (seem) to be legitimately into games cosplaying.

I turn my head away for a decade.....

this thread is not videogames

you think it just do, but it don't user.

It is very much videogames.

vidya games became mainstream user

It's for attention.

Some girls graduate high school, and realize that they would rather continue to be the biggest fish in a small pond, rather than a small fish in a big pond.

That looks like the ExCel centre in London

Because they are attention whores

...

>(seem)
Exactly. The vast majority of women like dressing up and attention. So naturally cosplay is literally the perfect hobby for them. The actual videogame aspect is secondary.

>putting that much effort into cosplay
It belongs on /cgl/

Cosplayers only do it for attention/donations. Even the down to Earth cosplayers are only doing it for attention.

Genshiken infuriated me to no end for how fake it was.

Do these hot bitches actually make their own costumes or just get some friendzoned nerd to do it for them?

>and then actually hot girls who (seem) to be legitimately into games cosplaying.

as games grew in popularity they saw it as a way to get more attention from both normies and virgin spergs alike

they can now make money just streaming their shitty gameplay and having virgin autists "donate" to them

They used to make them theirselves, then as YouTube became more popular, they would just buy their costumes from lesser known cosplayers.

Thinly veiled bad cosplay thread?

My dick doesn't think this is bad cosplay

Shut your FUCKING MOUTH norm, Japan isn't the same don't project your self-centered world view on the glorious holy land.

How about this one?

my man

...

truly AWFUL cosplay!

I feel like I was either born just too late to find the legit geeks and just too early to ride the faux-nerd/geek wave that is going on right now.

...

...

Awful!

...

muh dik

...

they're not into games, they just want the fucking attention.

why they want it from the shittiest, sub-human group of people is beyond me.

...

>why they want it from the shittiest, sub-human group of people is beyond me.
Because you have a perfect excuse to wear borderline fetish costumes in broad daylight.

...

All cosplayers are attention whores and never give any shits about the things they're cosplaying

Damn, Ksenia actually looks sexier as Margaery than Natalie Dormer did. Her Triss cosplays are also fucking on point

...

...

I feel like I was born the wrong sex to capitalize on all this betabux.

>>putting that much effort into cosplay

They're just having fun user

I'm not much for her Triss cosplays because in some pics she looks weird and in others it looks alright.

i dunno what it is about white girls trying to act japanese that really bugs me

This is the most embarrassing thing I've seen circulating on Sup Forums

I mean how do you look at that and not think it was just made by a bitter faggot who was bullied for being a beta autist? Nobody makes fun of anyone for playing videogames, unless you're actually a fucking loser who would get bullied no matter what. If you honestly think you were ever bullied solely as a result of liking vidya then it's no wonder you were a target. You're a fucking idiot.

I really thought this image would be mocked when it was made but I see it posted over and over and now I realise just how fucking sad and deluded lots of people on Sup Forums really are. I mean are you fucking serious? Did you REALLY have girls laughing at you for playing videogames? Where does this happen? They laughed at you because you were ugly, not because you played videogames

And even if you DID grow up in some kind of bizarre alternate universe shithole where there was a girl actually fucking idiotic enough to laugh at you for playing videogames when you were 10 years old, maybe it's time you fucking got over it? Or better yet, hold onto that bitterness forever and ever and save images from memecenter 15 years later making fun of girls because you're STILL not over it.

I wonder if the person who wrote this the first time was genuinely mad and from tumblr.

...

...

>weeb girls do actually exist
>we'll never meet them because they're even more shut ins than Sup Forumsirgins

More like hipsters and normies, just invaded geekdom and lowered our currency.

Look at cons these days, it's packed with normies. And stalls have jacked up their prices accordingly.

...

They're insufferable fujos anyway. You aren't missing out.

Took him some time...

They can't have been as mad as the person who wrote up the original pasta because he'd been bullied by little girls

...

That's mostly awful but mechagodzilla kid there is a baller. Bet he can't see for shit though

...

Cringe to the max

>we'll never meet them because they're even more shut ins than Sup Forumsirgins

No, you'll never meet them cause they're literally the female versions of Sup Forumsirgins. And no-one wants to see that.

Like I said, I'm not salty like that guy but it's just odd seeing this shit somehow get so popular, coming back to it later.

...

>that BB8

This, casualization of video games and ensuing monetization of everything surrounding it.

...

That's a guy, right?

I'd fuck both of these people

>hot girl likes game or character
>chooses to coplsay them
or
>hot girl wants attention

Either one of those. Pretty simple.

...

Some of us Sup Forumsirgins can blend in with normalfags decently enough. Although I guess if I met a femanon as high functioning as I am then I'd just assume she's actually normal rather than one of us.

haha what a retard im probably smarter than that dog

...

For work reasons I go to a lot of shitty conventions and I can tell you, 'cosplay culture' is the worst thing that has happened for many hobbies. It's invasive, destructive and you just can't fight it back. It's everywhere and draws the worst kind of people.

On the other hand, it's nice to see the occasional hot babe here and there, but believe me, it's not worth it.

...

Most of the hot babes you can't do anything with anyway. They're either walking with their bfs or B) walking with their bfs.

50:50 shot. Going on the assumption that it would be random the dog would have been right. The human was just being a dick only doing left.

...

is that cammy anorexic? she's got twigs for legs

...

>tfw she finally turned 18 this week.

...

Best way to put it really.

You can look at them and some times you get the rare single cosplayer (easier targets in the world, I can tell you that)

But yes, the cosplayer + bf/manager combo is hell made flesh. I had the 'luck' to be forced to work with one of those bf/managers once and it was one of the worst experiences of my life.

...

Hot girls doing nerdy things get elevated to ridiculous levels.
So it got popular among cosplayers/geeks.
The more popular it got, the more attractive people started to be a part of it.

That's it.

...

I think having them around girls actually makes them get less pictures. But the guys who come up still ask for them shamelessly, so it's probably not a big social deal.

please elaborate on that experience for us, sounds interesting

...

...

Hello?

The feedback though is that now nerdy girls notice a trend of becoming hot. So it's sorta a win win. Then they get too confident and we end up with just more hot, cocky girls.

I really want to cosplay for ax2017 as a boatgirl

>soon it'll be your grandma cosplaying
>all the nerd hobbies have been invaded by normies and nigger celebs
>all the movies and shows are pandering to geeks/nerds now
>animemes are completely mainstream
>people actually enjoy playing a worse TF2 just because Blizzard made it
>ZIMBABWE XDD

When do I wake up from this nightmare?
