100% guarantee this is what happened
>implying normies would even know what neptunia is
>Oh hey user, I booked some annual leave to play , what do you think of the game?
I laughed. Ha! That'll show the loser!
I work with someone who is an aspiring twitch streamer, he does that shit for 8 hours a day when he gets home from work.
>female co-worker
>Oh so you like video games user?
>yeah
please let that be the end of the conversation
PLEASE
>keep to myself, don't really talk to people much at work
>Hey user, I bet you're into those computer games right?
>N-nah, not really
How many fucking times are we gonna have this thread
Every day until the people at OP's workplace stop bullying him I guess.
>people at work know I play video games
>"Ha ha you look tired user, stayed up all night playing video games again?"
>tfw haven't played a game for more than 5 minutes in a week and just depressed as fuck
>"h-haha y-yeah"
>Not using the chance to engage in small talk with your coworkers, even if you don't share the same taste in games
When they ask what kind of games I play I usually tell them "anything that requires spam sword swings or bullets" and start from there.
>overhear two kids in college discussing a game
>"fallout 4 is like, one of the most fun games ever, it's just such a great game"
>"i didn't like fallout 4 because basically it was like, not fun, like basically everything in it was dumb"
>"but you're wrong, it's basically like the most fun game i've ever played, like, it was really fun"
Haha, yeah, I'm glad you don't find people like in every thread on Sup Forums.
>tfw trying to gauge their power levels
Found out one's a massive Forzafag which I've never encountered before. I don't think I've met anyone with such a hard on for racers.
That's pretty common in the UK.
Neptunia games are shit bro
Can't say I've noticed.
New job and finally surrounded by people who aren't complete normies is a nice change
Aren't racing games, FIFA and Football Manager the main normie games here? They are in my experience anyway, mind you I'm probably older than you so perhaps that's just my generation.
It's a balance, I try and figure out how much of a hardon they have for vidya, if I judge them to be about where I'm at I start a serious discussion.
>tfw my entire floor was talking about how great MGS3 was a while back
>rest of the week we were all throwing quotes
That was a good day
The latter two, definitely. Amongst my friends it's usually that and whatever popular shooter is out. But I honestly haven't met anyone who liked racing games seriously.
It still baffles me that Football Manager is so popular, every year it's closer to being Dwarf Fortress but with worse graphics.
Hey user we gotta attack now and kindly please donate hogs and lava
forza is pretty good though
>finally getting forza on PC
>mfw it's windows store exclusive
>I mostly play sports games and CoD
>coworker engages conversation with you
>you deflect and cry about it later
Kill yourself, pathetic faggot.
Most of my coworkers are into vidya and we can discuss it without going into autistic meltdowns. The fuck is wrong with you Sup Forumstards?
I saw that I just thought fuck it, I can't be bothered with it then.
>it's about the witcher and how geralt fucks all the bitches
>user, what vidya do you play?
>I used to play games when I was 12 or so, I don't have time to be playing with toys anymore haha
>go back home and masturbate furiously to 2B's ass
If you don't do this you're playing life wrong.
One of my employees told me he plays clash of clans.
I'm strongly considering firing him
You're pathetically insecure or baiting. Either way, you suck at life
>Coworker tells me he preordered Assassins Creed Origins Super Multi Dick edition
>£86
>eighty six fucking pounds
>"but why"
>you get, uh, an extra mission, and a statue
>my face the entire time
he's a good guy but jesus
I'm buying it despite the god awful experience I had with forza horizon 3 when it came out last year.
s-surely pajeet will have fixed the issues with win store since then, right?
>projecting this hard
Not everyone is that much of a loser as you are.
>co-worker starts talking about video games
>I feign ignorance and say I'm not into videogaming
>monologue stops and I get back to eating and chilling on my break
I would buy direct from Ubisoft before using the Windows store.
>tfw work at a game store
>not a OOGA BOOGA ROCKSTOP just a mom and pop retail store I've enjoyed going to a lot for years since
>so pretty much we all talk about video games and break the street dates
You can't even discuss video games because you need to keep up this 2mature4u persona to people who don't even think about you on a semi-regular basis. You're the archetype of a loser, my guy.
>co-worker starts talking about video games
>he has good taste
>exchange usernames
>play video games together
>tfw play PUBG, overwatch and battlefield so can have pleasant conversations with my coworkers
>co-workers start talking about recent political events
>hey user what's your though on this?
>mfw
>tfw I only ever had one worker who was a genuine gamer
>played dark souls, devil may cry and such
>his fuckin username in github had "dbz" in it
>switched workplace
>no one here likes gaming despite quite a few of them looking like massive nerds
>lose contact with the previous guy cause he's a ps4 player and i'm on pc
Fuck this shit
>this thread
Christ and I thought I was socially retarded
I can't play video games with my coworkers because I get too mad at video games.
>not wanting to talk about dumb shit at work means you're socially retarded
wew
>coworker: "you getting the new Call of Duty"
>me: heh I don't really play shooters..
>coworker: "shit man! Fuck you play then"
>me: *shows him JRPG*
>coworker: "damn I didn't know you was gay"
>me: y-you too...
"Cool, did you play Amneisa?"
>u-ur just putting up a persona!!
The same way you're putting up a tough guy persona on Sup Forums?. Talk about hypocrisy.
I just don't waste my time talking with people that don't share the same interests as me. I have other friends to talk about actual vidya.
I think its way more of a loser to try and "impress" normies with your knowledge about anime games and then come crying to Sup Forumsee when they laugh at your face.
>labour party got utterly destroyed in recent election
>everyone, myself included, is very pleased about this
good feels
Occasionally talk with other co-workers and no one drops spaghetti besides the head of HR that liked Donkey Kong 64
"yea fuck trump desu"
simple as
>"hey do you play pub-gee?"
>not really
>proceeds to tell me about all the epic matches he got into top 5 by doing nothing fuck all for 20 minutes
This
>must be about american politics
sure
Jesus Christ, projection city. So many assumptions, it's not even funny. There's no way you're of age, at least not mentally.
didn't u say anything else that it being good? u gotta continue after that, say like "hell yeah that ending was baller and I nutted"
>when you accidentally type desu in a text message
>Coworkers talk about COD and NBA
>Trash on cardgames and everything else
>perpetuating the "fuck drumpf and fuck white people" meme
enjoy the collapse of your society while mine learns from your mistakes before we make them ourselves
>he doesn't just let the filter do it
You'll never make the mistake again
>Going shopping with a co-worker yesterday
>He mentions possibly picking up Final Fantasy XV
>Manage to talk him down from it
>Tried to upsale him on Yakuza 0
>He just picked up the newest Madden instead
>I-I'll just play the tough internet guy card again, that'll show him!
Holy shit you're fucking sad.
lol, real people don't even know what a weeaboo is, all they see is pathetic nerds and then they see you, less pathetic nerd but still a nerd and pathetic
>stutter meme
>STILL projecting
18+
Dumb fucking frog and wojak poster.
It's too late now senpai.
>"you play CoD?"
>*lie to fit in* uh yeah
>"dude give me your gamertag we'll play"
>Tfw I buy the game after work
URAMESHI
Understandable, have a nice day.
>Tfw I buy the game after work
What a gigantic faggot
>being a lying piece of shit
This is the best way to never fit in.
often those people get into real cars too so you don't know that they play shit ton of racers too when they aren't irl racing
It's just most people don't have bunch of dudes to talk videogames about in a job. I'm lucky if the people watch game of thrones, living among redneck normies is pretty awful.
I used to play clash of kings solely to troll people. Maybe he does the same
>hey man you gonna get the new FIFA?
>aw, man, FIFA's my childhood, you gotta check it out
y-you too
You really don't have to greentext on top of using asteriks.
>co-workers play video games
>it's always CS:GO or some other shitty normie competitive shooter
>they never play anything else
The shit taste of normies who only play a single game all the fucking time baffles me. Fucking plebs
Not everyone has the same pool of coworkers. Luckily I'm with you.
>pop across the road to a comic store during my lunch break
>pick up a figma I ordered
>try to sneak back to my desk unnoticed
>"hey user, whats in the bag"
mfw
...
>implying they don't just hide their powerlevel
This thread full of lying niggers is a giveaway.
>comic
What does this have tom do with videogames?
It's actually pretty fun especially playing with a coworker so it's not a waste
>hear about 20 year old coworkers discuss overwatch or CS:GO
>"do you watch e-sports?"
>"yeah e-sports so cool!"
>"i heard koreans are really good"
Comic store is pretty much what they name any geek store.
>co-workers start talking about runescape
>runescape 3
Yeah, just used "comic" for convenience's sake, but it's one of those massive gaming/comic/pop culture stores
What if, in the same way we hide our power level, the co-workers are doing like, listen to me, THE SAME THING, and there they are, two people who like amazing games, playing like, COD and MOBAs just you try and fit in, but there was no normies all along
>can small talk with people offline just fine face-to-face when it comes up
>online I'm a complete wreck who defaults to 'that guy whos says funny things' during games and then never talks or contacts them ever
>Co worker starts talking about video game
>He actually has good taste in video games
>His power level exceeds yours
>Befriend him instantly
>A few weeks later he gets promoted, and you've got no one to talk vidya with
>mention I like video games one time
>every time I come into work, if I so much as yawn they go user WAS PROBABLY UP ALL NIGHT PLAYING VIDEO GAMES, WEREN'T YOU!
