Why are millennials addicted to videogames?

Don't they want to get job to buy a home to raise a family?

>Don't they want to get job to buy a home to raise a family?
No.

They are training to become female engineers.

So we can pay for more niggers to be on their 4th generation of welfare?

No. We want to crash this plane with mo survivors.

>get cucked into wasting your time on kids

Earth is overpopulated regardless. Unless you are birthing geniuses with a 100% guarantee you're just filling up space.

Shill thread. Sage.

to flush my brain

Because real life is shit.

>overcuck

This fucking meme game. People dog on Battlefront, but overwatch offers even less than the latter. Atleast Battlefront is enjoyable.

video games especially newer ones like mobas have inherent systems to make them more addicting. and when you can propagate a message out on the internet to billions with little effort it becomes easy to influence the people who subscribe to those mediums. depressed people and no desire to change + addictive ruts that offer a small but relevant sedentary 'hiding hole' from the stresses of society.

Your generation is the worst thing I've ever seen. Boomers know how to party!!!

>he fell for the Battlefront meme
>he hates Overwatch

let me guess, you're a console player?

Overpopulated with niggers and shitskins.

Kill yourself if you're not gonna contribute anything.

OK gramps.

Who is this chick and why is her picture always used when talking about millenias?

You are a millennial you memer piece of shit.

i would tear his boypucci up like a grizzly

It distracts me from how much I want to off myself

>option 1: be able to live stress free life of society burderns like taxes, etc. bu being a neet who lives in his parents home, and will inherit home when they pass away. during this time you graduate college without a sweat, can find a good job that you can make a career off of. And when you get the job, you can buy a apartment without living paycheck to paycheck. in the meantime being a vidya playing neet and going to school, stress free.

>option 2: go out to buy an apartment you can barely afford while paying for college, stress making you lose hair, relationships you cant hold, constantly drinking to hide the pain. all just to get a degree to work at a fast food restuaraunt hoping that you get a proper job from the hundreds of companies that you sent a resume to after and before graduation, but deep down you know that they sent it straight into the trash since you have no experience.

Explain to me how option 2 is better user. Just because you fell for the independent meme doesn't mean everyone should.

>tfw millenial on option 2 and literally laughing at the wage cucks just getting by

I threw a soda from McDonalds at a homeless nigger who wanted change. That is how great option 2.

option 1 is* for my last 2 things. whoops.

Alright, I just graduated highschool so let me explain to you what is happening. These kids are only out for feel-good happiness. They are all out to be the most morally superior and it's honestly cancer. Also the education system pushes them towards socialist ideals.

There are only a handful of people who are full blown alt right, but SJW clubs and LGBTQI clubs are fucking everywhere.

or you could just stop being a massive faggot and start solving your problems

Option 1 makes me despise myself. I'm changing my mind and picking option 2.

Why do girls fall so easily to SJW/cultural marxism bullshit?

But that's hard

>option 3: send your resume to companies that aren't fucking Google and get hired within a few weeks of trying

>build your skills at this comfy small company and leave after 2-3 years for a ~$20-40k increase in salary at a larger company

If you've LITERALLY sent out hundreds of resumes and fucked up that many interviews, you're scum and didn't deserve to get that degree in the first place.

>full blown alt-right
Faggotry-obsessed, libertarian, anti-feminist race-mixers?

then motivate yourself

Accessible alternative to effortful activity.

Like I said, it's a race for moral superiority. They take it from their friends, since they easily buy into Drama, which they get from their idols.

why dont boomers retire ? they are taking up space in higher positions with better pay

Soembie

I've never had that suggested to me in my life, everyone tells me I'm doing fine.

Why not just play Battlefront 2?

mediocrity shouldn't be fine tho

Because poos and chinks with H1B visas will fill those jobs.

Don't they want to get job to buy a home to raise a family?

Spend half income on rent.
Spend a quarter on carry for minimum two other parasites.

Vs

Double your personal income and have fun.
Put the other half in savings and escape the jew owned rat race

>gaming
>laptop

What I meant were avid supporters and idealists. But most of my non-white friends, and I live in a largely east Indian populated area, with a few sprinkled in from the middle east, hate the fact that they're brown. And wish to be Persian, Greek, or Germanic.

>Don't they want to get a job to buy a home to raise a family?
video games are more satisfying

Thanks for the advice, Rabbi. Also, considering how overpopulation is concentrated in places like India instead of the West, we should let them immigrate here so as to not waste space.

truly that makes me think

because women have been pushed into the workforce and our wages have depressed and housing prices have skyrocketed and women have become non-traditional and video games are the only safe space left for them

Why do Boomers like Kiss the feet of minority's and Jews?

but whats the point?

Also, considering the fact that I wont be having any descendants, I think it's a good idea to leave my wealth and property to the state of Israel in order to apologize for the Holocaust.

>when you don't know what that thing is but you know you want to fuck it

>I just graduated high school

You are right about the overflow of faggots and trannies. Most of them will grow out of it when they are forced into employment, but there is still going to be far more than previous generations.

I'm in the same boat as Why should I bust my ass and scar myself mentally with stress so I can get a peice of paper that certifies me to work 50+ hours a week in a job that can easily be taken by an H1B applicant because they are a minority?

I would rather take my chances trying to make money off of pro gaming since that is at least enjoyable and filled with similar people.

Believe me, I would love to get my degree and go to another country that wasnt being fucked by subversion, but there are next to none left. The only one in mind that comes close is Finland, but they are very strict on immigration and have socialist policies.

Unless something changes now (which it wont except through an act of god), this society will collapse and will burn and reset. I refuse to be a willing traitor that will feed the system and keep it going.

What the fuck is an interaction engineer?

>Video games: enjoyable, fun, takes your mind off the stresses of life
>Raising a family: generally not enjoyable, draining, adds to the stresses of life, doesn't pay off for about 18 years
>Buying a home: impossible

I was going to say some libcuck tier bullshit but honestly its too bad to even think of anything.
My guess is she "engineers a friendly way for people to interact with the company".
please nuke us.

boomers fucking pillaged the country and now are mad that they won't have money from our generation to fund their retirement welfare (social security). Fuck you. You're generation was total garbage and you help create the mess that the world is today. Granted millennials aren't going to be fixing it. But fuck cleaning up your mess you degenerate group of post hippies.

>Don't they want to get job to buy a home to raise a family?

>$10 an hour minimum wage is too damn high
>Why aren't there any PhD students with 20 years of experience applying to my internship program?
>Why is no one renting my $4000 a month apartment
>How am I supposed to retire

fucking boomers.

Leftists want to bring about the destruction of the white man.

I say let them. Then laugh as the world falls apart.

I grew up hating vidya, so I can't play them now. The only thing that brings me much pleasure is working and the thought of raising a family, so that's what I'm going for. I don't know if I could be a happy degenerate if I tried.

Addiction is always bad.
You could ask the same about everything else.
Why are millenials addicted to booze, smoking, illegal drugs, gambling, weapons, cars, working etc pp

That's no question about millenials but addiction itself.

I think their type are the ones responsible for this "gamification" or work. Like how the company uses leaderboards or other stupid shit to try and make work like a fun game to trick people into working more for the same pay. It's disgusting.

Maybe if the average house wasn't 200k

Well trying to be an unhappy productive citizen is just as well as being an unhappy degenerate. We're all unhappy in the end and we all fucking die. No, it doesn't get better, not ever.

>Don't they want to get job to buy a home to raise a family?
none of the above. I want to see Happenings

Shit man just take some antidepressants or something.
My options are
>Be productive and happy
>Be unproductive and unhappy.
Obvious choice. We all die. I'm going to be as happy as I can until then, or else it's been a waste.

The ideal is to not have a family or play video games & beat off to porn

Because Overwatch is fun.
Games are fine, stop blaming games.
This sounds like a ban all guns kinda argument.

((((Correcting Records))))) type social "engineers"

happiness is in fact subjective and depends on your environment and your self esteem.

'87 here.

I'm technically a millennial which is bullshit. I'm getting a house in 6 months. The generations below me are all too young to care about adult shit yet most of them are in middle/high school or college.

this.

>antidepressants
depression led to nihilism, so when they make anti-nihilistic drugs I'll let the (((pharmaceutical)) companies have my soul.

because video games have been on the planet for like 50 years and they're fucking awesome. If you wanna go down the addiction road then we can bring up a looooot of other things that people throw their lives away with. also that little slut is cute af

Well obviously. That's why say my options. If you're a failure and your life sucks, you'll never be happy, sucks to suck, etc etc. Play vidya if it helps pass the time til you croak.
My self esteem and environment allow me a means of happiness for now. It'd be stupid not to take it. Happiness is fleeting, but enjoyable while it's around.

That's not an answer to the question.

>Overwatch
>fun
lmao, I trashed that shit after less than 2 weeks of playing

Because movies suck and videogames are cheaper. $10 gets you hundreds of hours of fun with your friends, $60 gets you two hours of sitting in a dirty theater adjacent a car dealership.

Sh'e not addicted to video games, she's addicted to the mountain of male attention she receives that inflates her fragile ego. Tell her she's pretty user, you know you want to.

>Why are millennials addicted to videogames?
Because deep down they know the world is so depressing and evil that they only want to escape it; not that I agree with that sentiment, but I can empathise and understand it.

>Don't they want to get job to buy a home to raise a family?
They want a home, but most don't know how they can ever afford one - the housing market isn't exactly well-off nowadays.
Most millennials don't want a family either; mainly because the men are worried that the woman will cheat/abuse them and take away their belongings, and the women are worried that the man will cheat/abuse them and take away their freedom.

>Boys are taught from day one that they are no longer allowed to be strong, competetive, overbearing or masculine.
>Entire generation of gamers now who just play power fantasies where they are allowed to be violent and be rewarded for masculinity.
>Women decide this needs to stop now as well

Hmm really makes u think.

>>option 3: send your resume to companies that aren't fucking Google and get hired within a few weeks of trying

yeah and then dump 70% of your income on a studio apartment in a place like hayward or fremont, because there's no housing being built in the bay area. Tech companies pay a lot, but only because of the ridiculously high cost of housing in silicon valley

>create a shithole where your nation used to be
>escape to video games and let other people deal with the problems

Isn't it obvious?

I never said I play video games or my life isn't blessed with my family around me, but happiness is indeed a subjective matter.
You stated it like being not productive is an unhappy life. Being not productive is a failure for society but not for being unhappy.

Good Goy!

true that, heres a better answer then.

Humans have always enjoyed things that help them kill time, throughout history we've invented games and dances and all sorts of recreational activities to help us loosen up and forget the struggles of day to day life. In the last 50 years video games have been invented and they are very very good at doing this, along with television and the internet, thus video games are very popular.

why are people addicted to them you might ask? that is a question better suited for the topic of addiction itself.

and that little smiling dick tease in OP's picture is very cute.

>"gaming" laptop

see Fucking leaf.

>wanting to buy a home a raise a family

Why do that? Why put that level of stress and misery on yourself? I'm not saying be NEET, but why can't just supporting myself be enough? I don't want a wife or kids. I don't want a house. My apartment and car is enough. I'm not ruining my life just because others did by falling for that nonsense.

What else am I supposed to do when I'm not slaving away at work?

Because millennials are the shittiest generation ever.

Self entitled cunts who aren't smart enough to understand life has always been hard for everyone, but they only care about themselves so they pretend the world is out to get them instead of just hardening up and moving forward with their life.

One half went SJW and threw tantrums.
Other half hide in their basements.

All of them are worthless.

>People dog on Battlefront, but overwatch offers even less than the latter.


People shit on Battlefront for having far less content than previous games in the franchise while being sold for $10 more than those at launch, not the actual lack of content in the game itself.

...

Families don't exist anymore. Well, not for fathers at least.

It's been that way for a long time.

Single-motherhood is the dark, foreboding future we chose for our children.

>work 40 hours a week doing an easy as fuck office job
>spend every minute during my free time either playing vidya or on Sup Forums or both
>rent is dirt cheap (flyover state) and I don't have a woman or kids to bleed me dry so I have tons of dosh to spend on vidya and figurines from my Chinese cartoons and MAGA paraphernalia

This confound generation of slothful oafs! They sit around watching the television! Can you believe it? Moving pictures. Before you know it, people will have lost their imagination! Now, listening to the radio... That's real entertainment, doc. I could sit around for hours listening to my crime stories.

>raise a family

What did he mean by this?

A home, car, spouse, three kids, and a college fund aren't exactly feasible for a twentysomething just out of school with a shitload of student debt and job opportunities which mostly consist of minimum wage jobs and living out of a shithole apartment if they can afford even that much.

The idyllic suburban life requires a significant sum of money that people just starting/only a few years into their adult life simply don't have. All vidya requires is a mid-range PC/console, an internet connection, and some spare cash to throw at a game every now and then. Maybe $2000 to $2500 all in all if you buy a pretty good rig.

Not to mention that millennials have grown up in a time of relative peace where resources are plentiful and gratification is almost instant. Parents were lazy and spoiled them, failed to teach them things like work ethic and responsibility, education systems failed and continue to fail at teaching things like critical thinking. Honestly I think Millennials are a product of their environment, they aren't inherently a shitty generation, they are an indication of the previous generation's failure to raise them properly.

then were in agreement, kraut.

Because they are entertaining. Why the fuck else? You spend all day watching cable Tv.

>implying video games addiction didnt start in the fucking 80s

I play video games because I largely feel like I have no purpose and no place in the world. My whore of an ex took our kids and left me. Sure, I haven't been told to pay child support, but I lost my family and I don't even know where they ran to. All I've got is a job I hate and video games. At least when I come home I can sit down and enjoy some fucking Doom. What else do I have to live for?

You know how to destroy everything regardless of having everything handed to you by the greatest generation. Boomers confirmed for worst generation and A SHIT!

jesus christ this is depressing. get some help, man.
