Where did gaming culture go so wrong?

Where did gaming culture go so wrong?

Game has been a downhill slope ever since Glover 2 came out

Kids don't give a shit, it's the older people that ruin it

So their tastes remained awful? Only moderately good title there is W3

Humans.
You can now apply this answer to everything that we fuck up and have ever fucked up, you're welcome.

Most regular kids don't care about e-celeb or CNN latest drama.

You couldn't be anymore wrong, just got out of university. Literally every person who studied social science cared to the point that they'd happily destroy themselves to defeat anyone who disagreed with their world view. It was genuinely scary.

No wonder guy on the right is bored, he only has shit games to play

PLEASE tell me this is bait. Saved either way

no idea.

kids are so stupid these days

>tfw asking for half a dozen mcnuggets at gamestop
>"we don't sell dozens here sir"
>"we sell them in 6s or 12s though"
>"so you're saying you don't sell half dozen mcnuggies? But you sell 6?"
>"yes"

holy shit I thought anybody who works at mcDonalds would have had a masters in mathematics AT LEAST

This is way oversold. It's mostly said by assholes who are mad that they get called assholes when they're being assholes cause

>muh free speech

you need a math phd for your 30k starting mcjob

>kids from the 90's
>only games from the 2010's

Also I'm my country's equivalent of a high school senior and literally every male is a PC master race gamer here

Some have Xboxes for locally playing something like newest NHL game since hockey is extremely popular

>Where did gaming culture go so wrong?

Twitch and gaming videos.

If people want to watch other people play games, go to the arcade once in a while.

You grew up.

they work at gamestop, tho, according to the story.

What did they mean by this?

lol, okay grandpa.

I'm 28. Probably on the older side of Sup Forums. I'm not super into Twitch either, but I see the appeal.

Sometimes I'll even put it on while I'm cooking dinner or something.

90s kids are way too young to be starting to shit on younger generations. You gotta be at least 50 to start acting like a grumpy old man.

>Friend has sex at party
>Random female social science student finds out, learns they were both drunk
>Calls friend rapist
>Tries to get girl to call the police, despite her saying it was "it was consensual"
>Spends six months trying to destroy him, got caught keying PEDO into his car.
>Ended up getting kicked off out because she threw tea over a lecturer because he didn't take her seriously.

I don't think its oversold, I think shit like this is harmful. Half the uni actually thinks my friend did something wrong because they've only heard the loudest voice.

>Too much of a cuck to get his mom to cook him dinner

lol!

>but I see the appeal.

"Celebrity status" is not an appeal.

>Sometimes I'll even put it on while I'm cooking dinner or something.

Proof that you only give a shit about the individual mouthing off above the gameplay, not the gameplay itself.

THIS is the sole reason games today are such shit. No one wants to participate in GAMEPLAY anymore. They rather listen to play-by-play of OTHER PEOPLE play games.

You don't care user because its not you or your friends or your family.

You think its oversold and "muh free speech" because you're not the one being censored or slandered.

I honestly don't hope you experience it but if one day you do, remember this moment.

>just got out of uni

that explains it.

Really shows how bad it has gotten, even the young ones hate themselves.

>This is way oversold

>"But that's MY world view after uni!"

Fix'd that for you.

>No one wants to participate in GAMEPLAY anymore. They rather listen to play-by-play of OTHER PEOPLE play games.

You seriously sound so old right now.

When you were a kid, your grandpa probably bitched that because of video games, no kids played sports anymore. Yet last time I checked, a bunch of colleges just gave out full ride scholarships to 17 year olds who can play football.

>You seriously sound so old right now.

But am I wrong?

You are part of the problem, fagg

Not him, but was about to insult you when I saw the words grandpa etc from your post
Actually what you said, even if it's a little out of subject and a bad analogy it's not too far from what we're saying

>But am I wrong?

Yes. Demonstrably.

Thanks, user. You contributed a lot with that shipost, can I have another?

Politics are a complete circus show that ruins everything it touches. Including Sup Forums .

It's just gotten much worse these past few years.

Also:

>Yet last time I checked, a bunch of colleges just gave out full ride scholarships to 17 year olds who can play football.

You do realize that half the reason the education system is such shit is because they keep lowering test standards to let dullards get that football/basketball scholarship, right?

Oh sure, they keep telling the students "you have to keep your grades up to play sports", but then they lower the standard so that those individuals CAN'T fail.

Part of the reason there aren't as many smart people from American education right there. IE, if all you have to do is run around and throw a ball, what's the point of actually being smart?

If you actually think that, then you have demonstrated that you enjoy watching more than doing.

I actually feel sorry for you, and hope you grow out of it sooner than later.

I just don't know where this idea that people don't play video games b/c of Twitch comes from.

PS4 is close to 60M. Nintendo Switch is having a great launch. Mobile games a huge. Pokemon go was a phenomenon that caused hundreds of thousands of people to pick up a 3DS.

Watching Twitch hasn't taken the place of playing video games yourself. It's just another venue for entertainment.

the whole sjw crap is just the journos trying to create conflict, just because their works have an expiration date

why read a review if you can watch the whole game, or watch a review from a non shill youtuber who will show all the faults of a product

>moderately good
>Shitter 3

shut up

>90s
>witcher

>You do realize that half the reason the education system is such shit is because they keep lowering test standards to let dullards get that football/basketball scholarship, right?

Wow. That was aporpos of nothing, but no it's not. Football and basketball at the Division 1 level are revenue sports. They make money for the schools. And college athletes are mostly just as smart as any other student. There are a few dumbasses who get in on talent of course, but who cares?

Nah ur rong on this one homie. big time

>I just don't know where this idea that people don't play video games b/c of Twitch comes from

Here's where that comes from.

"I have to wait until my favorite twitch streamer makes some videos about it until I can form my own opinion."

No one wants to try a game for themselves to make up their own mind anymore. I can't count how many times I've heard 'critics' say something completely negative about the game, only to have regular consumers turn around and go "It was a very good game, I don't know what those people are going on about".

Make me.

no

When I was at collage, there was three students who failed their computer science course. 2 guys and a girl BUT they all graduated anyway. The girl was used in promotional material for the collage (Only girl in class) so they passed her, saying that this counted as credits and the two guys bitched and moaned about this. So they passed too. You ever sat in an office and wondered how some of these people got a degree, this is why.

>Fallout
>The Witcher
Don't you lump me in with your shit taste having kind.

i wonder how *you* got a collage degree

More like "I have to wait until my fav streamer gets a little tipsy, so she can be tipped into start getting naked"

There are more video games out there than a typical person's budget can afford to buy. People have always looked to others to help them make purchasing decisions.

A friend of mine usually wont see a movie with us unless she's checked the Rotten Tomatoes score. I disagree with that as a means to for making a choice, but hey, it's her $10 and her 2 hours. She can be as judiciuos with it as she wants.

Some people only read New York Times Best Sellers.

wait, how weer kids in the 90s excited about fallout and toobie?

Enough credits while passing my final exam, isn't it that way for everybody?
Or have you always got by on your superior dick sucking abilities?

Audrey isn't even a streamer.

BTW I went to college with her. She didn't have those titties back then...

>90's kids
>pc

Kek. How fucking delsuional are you?

It's a cultural problem that also reaches videogames, not exclusive to them.

Very much part of the problem as well. I don't dare anyone else how to spend their money, but I fundamentally disagree with giving money to a half gamer, half stripper.

If I'm to be fleeced of my cash, I'd much rather go to the strip club where there is at least a CHANCE of getting muh dick touched. With a twitch streamer, even that is out.

>Some people only read New York Times Best Sellers.

Which is a shame, there are plenty of other good books out there as well that people won't know about because they only flock to 'what is popular'. Same as gaming, sadly.

I know, she was just selected as a picture for dem titties.
Here's a more relevant .web

i graduated collage by cutting a bunch of pictures from magazines and gluing them to a posterboard

only one with shit taste is you

I'm sorry am I missing the point here? What are you trying to say? That kids born in the 90's care about frivolity and "kids now", whatever that means, somehow care about nonsense to no avail? Please explain.

I suppose that's a great skill for private investigators, police officers and serial killers. I hope you find happiness in one of these callings, user.

I only know this girl from Sup Forums. I bet virtually no one watches her stream except for the dude who captured this webm so he could trigger everyone.

Besides, if kids wanna jerk off, let em jerk off I say.

born in '85 here, played a lot of Wolfenstein/Duke Nukem/Sim City/Command & Conquer/Lemmings/The Incredible Machine/Commander Keen/Need for Speed/Lego Island/etc on PC

What country?
'murka?

If 'murka, that would explain all the pajeets Sup Forums complains about.

You got this image wrong.

The kids now needs a PS4, a "fucking SJWs", at least three e-celebs, a MAGA hat, and no games

...

>he missed the joke
fuckan kek

I think he's referring to the cultural shift in gaming/geeky media that adversely effects players and current/future games.
Like instead of saying "is this game fun and immersive?" a lot of people focus on "Is this game racist, sexist, homophobic and are you a piece of shit for liking it?"

Considering that I'm currently in the position of being charged by the school for sexism for criticizing feminism and Hillary Clinton, I don't think it's that much of an exaggeration.

Make me.

SJW's trying to forcefeed their political ideology in their games
>yooka laylee
>Mass Effect Andromeda
>Battleborn
>Overwatch
>World of Warcraft
Just a reminder not to buy games with SJW influence or games made by SJW companies they always suck and its only going to go on if we support these companies by buying their game
Every dollar that you give to McDonalds is a vote saying that you want them to stay and keep doing what they're doing

Shoosh cunt

>Mcnuggets
>GameStop

The thing I see wrong in that picture is the gaming industry.

>his gamestop doesn't have a mcdonalds inside it

>Call someone a cuck
>lives with their mom

>Calls someone a mom
>Lives with their cuck

This unironically.

Everyone over the age of 16 should not be playing vidya. They ruin it with their dumbass political shitflinging.

Anyone

England
Pajeets work for less and longer, yet its a hit and miss with them. You could get a hard working one, or one that'll take advantage of every policy and technicality you have and get no work done. Regardless of this, everyone hates them. I had to do tech work in Iraq and dealing with them for a month and a half made me a raging racist.

The moment it was considered a 'culture'

this

Says the underaged. I'm 25 and I sure as hell don't get off on politicizing video games like SJW's do.

Kids these days are obessessed with FNAF and now I've reached the age where I truly don't understand why something is so popular with children.

>>Overwatch

I genuinely think this one is shrewd marketers that probably shit talk this stuff behind closed doors (still makes them huge faggots though). I mean the teams favorite seems to be Rienhardt and he pisses SJWs right off.

Its called growing up.

>muh underaged

I'm 21. It's objectively true that nearly all the faggots who either go "waaahhhh this game is racist" or "waahhhhh SJWs ruined this game" are university/mid-20s cucks who care more about arguing about games then playing them. Actual kids don't give a fuck.

Well im still in the 90s

And how do you know that? Considering that a lot of high schools these days are full of SJW trash I don't think what you claim is accurate. Maybe if we're talking 10 and under but after that point I think kids start becoming "more aware."

>Anyone

Kid's are such a waste of space if they were not crucial to the survival of the human race i would have leaded the worlds biggest genocide even the jews would join

You're a fucking moron...
You say that under 16's should play games when you're 21...
So you're either a spastic that doesn't understand what he's saying, or you're a spastic that surfs video game boards and doesn't play video games.

>Sup Forums
>playing video games

You sure you're in the right place?

Then explain why the backlog is so good?

This meme should die
This is why Sup Forums is primary shitposting now, its hip to hate this, its cool to like that, lets post this bait again for the 10000 time. That'll be funny.

Heh, you're all kids to me.

Kids now are even more hardcore against SJWs than in the 90s.

Kids in the 80s and 90s had to grow up dealing with faggot bushy-haired cunt soccer moms who wanted to ban anything fun because it hurt their bleeding-gash feelings. Kids in the 2000s+ had to grow up dealing with these fucking balding walking vaginas taking away everything they like because it's not politically correct.

Most of my little brother's friends constantly shit on Jews and call the local Portland hipsters faggot cuckolds to their face.

I assume it's thanks to Let's Plays most of them are becoming more introduced to older games because they shit on new games worse than Sup Forums could and constantly play shit from the PS1 and N64 era.
The coming generation is great, better than us, and I applaud them if they can keep it up after their mid 20s jade them into a fucking statue of a person.

>people born after 9/11 can drive now

i was playing doom 4 and mortal kombat XL before opening this browser. so yes i play games and occasionally join in with the trolls to talk about them.

It stopped just being people playing video games, and became a 'culture'.

Gaming in the 90's had conservatives as its enemy at the time. They wanted to make sexual and violent in gaming go away.

Now we have a bunch of fruity faggots with purple hair trying to make everything about modern day politics.
