Why are they always "gamers?"

Why are they always "gamers?"

>Serena has been a game enthusiast since an early age*


I don't get it either user.

And since when is backing games something you put on your CV?

since when did gamers have a problem with the word gamers? oh yeah its another neo Sup Forums thing that nobody adult actually cares about

When you don't have shit for accomplishments.

Playing videogames should not define your identity user

>a short bio on a website is a curriculum vitae

let's play spot the young child who doesn't know the meaning of terms they use

Pretty much, it doesn't matter. Nothing matters.

that's funny it defines yours

Are we ignoring the fact that that thing is obviously not a woman?

Im a writer user, i have no identity

>a short bio on a website is a curriculum vitae
>a short bio
>bio


And to emphasize my point

>a brief account of a person's education, qualifications, and previous experience, typically sent with a job application.
>a person's education, qualifications, and previous experience
>education, qualifications, and previous experience

who cares?

let me give you a recipe for a miserable life: sit on this website unceasingly concerning yourself with the things you don't like

who fucking cares dude its a tranny omg never seen one before

>And to emphasize my point

yes, to emphasize your point you don't know what a CV is if you think that is one

don't worry, you don't have to understand this; having a CV will never be important to you. You're a "job application" type.

Since nu-gaming culture adopted the word for self-identification.

Self-identification is cancerous regardless but videogame software identifies your input as a player, not a gamer.

>Since nu-gaming culture adopted the word for self-identification.

im going to wager you dont know fuck all about "gaming culture" since the word "gamer" was in heavy use in the fucking eighties

you are like 15 you dont know the first fucking things about video games their history or their culture you have never been to an arcade you dont even play games online with other people fuck you kid

Never said it was never prevalent before, the point I made was that it became cancerous when the current culture adopted the word and coined it as their own creation.

>implying
Stop projecting. I'm probably older than you

yeah that's what i thought you worthless little fag

now how about this: you don't take MY word that *I* fucking use to self identify for well over 25 years and attribute it to trannies and shit as an excuse to FUCKING COMPLAIN ABOUT SHIT

WANNH WANNH THEY TOOK MY WORD

WELL, YOU APPARENTLY DIDN'T WANT IT ANYWAY, AND THINK YOU ARE TOO COOL TO CALL YOURSELF A GAMER WHEN YOU GREW UP FUCKING STUFFING POKEMON CARTRIDGES INTO YOUR URETHRA. FUCK YOU.

People on this site won't know the difference, for the most part.

As long as you do more than just play them like a mindless simpleton (ie analyze them, figure out what the gameplay implies, etc), I don't see why not. It's not any different from being a film buff.

Again, self-identification is the first sign of a faggotry. Thanks for proving my point.

the problem isn't the word gamers, the problem is that's a man

She reminds me of that mongoloid at minecon who wanted notch to join her dad's minecraft server.

45 year old here. Literally NO ONE said "gamer" until like 10-15 years ago. Go fuck yourself, you meme parroting faggot.

This is correct. "Identity" is literally the worst thing that ever happened to human civilization.

This poster is literally a homosexual.

Since always. Game journalists are the ones that popularized it to begin with. Anyone that "self-identifies" is literally subhuman.

>neo-Sup Forums has a problem with the word gamers
>neo-Sup Forums

Confirmed for new
Sup Forums has been taking the piss and shitting on the term "gamers" as some sort of identity since "gamer fuel" back in 2007, you faggot.

holy shit...gamer fuel was 10 years ago?!

where did the time go

>mention a hobby I have
>WAW HOLY SHIT DUDE THAT SHOULDN'T DEFINE YOUR LIFE??!!!!!???
Who reacts like this?

THIS GUY FUCKING GETS IT.

>Game journalists are the ones that popularized it to begin with
This was always the case

ITT

Corporate America from birth here, it's unprofessional. We don't need to know you like to play vidya.

Right on fellow kid.

Gamers are Dead.

>2007 isn't neo-Sup Forums

LOL

this is for a game kickstarter
so yeah, no shit they talked about her gaming experience, they aren't going to talk about her fucking tennis history are they?

>"Identity" is literally the worst thing that ever happened to human civilization.
I think it would be fairer to say, postmodern consumer identity politics (ie gamergate shit) is a cancer on human civilization. Self-identification is of course a natural part of human psychology, and the word "gamer" is acceptable as an anodyne descriptor of people who play games as a hobby.

Well, at least she was raised by patrician games and platforms.

Fellow booker, filmer and musicer here, you bring up a good point.

2005-2007 was literally Sup Forums's golden age.

if you didn't post cockmonglers and remember /l/ in 2003 you're a newfag

you are literally the worst person in the thread
