Anyone who uses a mentor is a pathetic loser and always will be. Real men understand why things aren't working and take steps to fix them. I was a jobless, girlfriendless, non-confident loser. What did I do? I got a job, got a girlfriend, and stopped being a little non-confident b***h.
>Anyone who uses a mentor is a pathetic loser and always will be
Stopped reading, the fact you're on Ganker already means you're a pathetic loser regardless. Get over yourself
Vidya is just sorta dry rn. AAA is just dog shit except for a few Nintendo games and a lot of indie games just seem to be a copy of a better game with a new coat of paint
No. I'm having fun playing my game right now. Took a break to do some chores and about to hop back in Remnant.
I will say though, I tried playing an RPG, which I don't have much experience in this kind, and I found the gameplay to be quite dull. I also don't understand numbers, unironic autism, and had a really difficult time with the combat. When everywhere else, people are complaining it's too easy.
I got frustrated and then I had to restart, but I don't know how to build a character and the game is quite unknown, so there isn't any guides out there for idiots like me. So I'm back to being frustrated with the combat and feel the need to restart AGAIN.
I still have fun with old games but I haven't seen a new game that made me think >I've got to play this
in ages, it's all copy-paste shit trying to score brownie points with the woke crowd
>no longer human
man that dudes life was just about to turn around. he committed suicide right before his book became japans no.1 book for like 60 years. oof
>how about having kids
i dont want kids >and being responsible

Enjoy being free for...video editing for youtube shit/streaming and meeting weird strangers.
It's literally me and everyone on the planet.
I don't want to hear about your job, car or family or the lastest shitty media, you fricking homosexual. Boring pigs.
The old games? No. But I play them a lot less. Seeing negative news about the industry for atleast a decade didn't help. And real life is getting impossible to ignore because nothing is getting better.
The funny thing is it's a curse or a superpower depending on what the focus is aimed at. I've used it to go full autismo on some cool useful skills and subjects, but also to spend 12 hours at a time playing vidya for way too many days of my life.
I used to be more accepting of it because I was in my 20s and didn’t give a frick, but I’m 31 now and still floundering in uni while trying to balance hobbies/personal projects. Shit is maddening at times.
Like for example right now— I bought a bunch of adderall with the intent of using it to get caught up on a ton of homework, but instead I burned through it playing fricking Pathologic Classic HD for 12 fricking hours instead, and now I’m strung out and gotta head to work.
Probably would’ve finished my work like 6 hours ago and passed out blissfully if I’d just stuck to the plan.
I'm 38, I know that feeling. Only suggestion I can offer is that controlling your environment is much more likely to succeed than trying to exercise willpower. For instance, if someone is struggling with their weight it's much smarter to remove all the junk food from their house than it is for them to try not to eat it in the face of temptation all day long. Man flows like water towards the easiest option, so just make sure the easiest options are the ones you choose for yourself. Also be careful with the drugs.

Bill Burr said when he was first coming up in comedy he was still playing video games and wheb GTA 3 came out he became obsessed with it, would play all day, find himself thinking about it while he walked around the city, etc. Suddenly he realized that he was putting more mental energy into the game than improving his own life because video games "had become *too* good" and his life wasn't where he wanted it to be so he went home and got rid of his playstation and never played a video game again.
Sometimes I think I need to do this with the internet as a whole.

"When technology advances, we'll be able to do more with video games!"
Still releasing linear bullshit with great graphics
Still releasing the same looter shooter bullshit
None of the games released are doing anything new in their respective genres
No. I don't play video games for more than 2 hours a day, I don't play the same game or genre of game over and over again, and I have other hobbies as well.
I don't play multiplayer games either or MMORPGS, I complete one game, I move on to the next one to complete. There's so many good games out there to play, I play older titles like Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis for example, it keeps the experience fresh.
There's frick all that looks decent that's coming out and it's getting too expensive anyways. I've just recently sold my PS4 collection.
I did buy a Switch Lite earlier this year and been playing Xenoblade Chronicles 1 on and off. It's pretty good, it became great when Dunban joined the party. Considering Splatoon 3 but I'm not sure if an online shooter on the Lite would be the best decision,
new videogames have been on an obvious parabola into a cliff face for years. but if you didn't build up an interesting backlog of older games to play or if you have no clue where to go besides modern games, then the problem isn't the games.
Nope i actually try to play a variety of different genres so if i get burn out one type of game i Just move to another for a while currently on a puzzle gaming kick i have been enjoying baba is you lately
Nope. Didn't drink the Gankeroolaid so I didnt grew up to be senile

Have you tried to stop being such a massive homosexual, OP?
I dont play video games I just come here to shit post
yes
I think you just want something else right now and video games aren’t fulfilling that need.
Nope! I make sure to play a good variety of genres and have a backlog with 90 games in it
No. You are just depressed and a boring person to be around
Yes, I put more energy in Traditional Games now.

I cant stop playing videogames, other wise ill remember that I will never find love and that I will die alone
Stop playing modern dogshit, be amazed at how every game is suddenly great and loads of fun.
I did. Then I took up a new hobby for a while. Then I dove back into games. Get a larger variety of hobbies anon.
Vidya is just sorta dry rn. AAA is just dog shit except for a few Nintendo games and a lot of indie games just seem to be a copy of a better game with a new coat of paint

Yea, I'm 23 now and feel like I'm way too old for video games now.
Yes. I play chess in the mornings instead on chess.com. The last hurrah for me was when I got really into escape from tarkov during the covid idiocy.
video games?
No. I'm having fun playing my game right now. Took a break to do some chores and about to hop back in Remnant.

Comfy if enjoyable
people
All 8 billion people are literally evil monkeys and boring as frick.
Also dirty as frick, I get Corona and STDs from them.
Disgusting pigs, I hope for a new plague.
thats just a reflection of yourself
It's literally me and everyone on the planet.
I don't want to hear about your job, car or family or the lastest shitty media, you fricking homosexual. Boring pigs.
>tals about boring shit
>surprise when people he meets are boring
so the problem is you
Literally everyone is boring.
At least media and books are crafted to be interesting, but they also fall into the same tropes after a while.
I've found that pretty much anything is interesting when you're not mentally shallow.
i got tired of video games because of mental health reasons until 2017. nowadays i'm hyped but have 0 motivation to play anything
At the moment I'm only into game development. Don't want to play anything, just want to entertain people.
no
The old games? No. But I play them a lot less. Seeing negative news about the industry for atleast a decade didn't help. And real life is getting impossible to ignore because nothing is getting better.
nope, I have sunk literal thousands hours on my steam library and I dont intend to stop
Black person you are not bored of video games you are depressed
>Getting sick of a hobby? Yeah you're depressed go eat these pills mmmmm
Just take a break from vidya for a week or two and try a new hobby.
no one mentioned pills, homosexual, you can be depressed without needing meds.
I’d enjoy them a lot more if I had some self-control.
I'm like you, obsessive anon. When I do something I go full moron on it and it's all I think about until I move on to the next thing.
Wish I wasn’t like this, anon. I’ve tried to set up schedules where I do just a little bit of everything each day and it never fricking works.
The funny thing is it's a curse or a superpower depending on what the focus is aimed at. I've used it to go full autismo on some cool useful skills and subjects, but also to spend 12 hours at a time playing vidya for way too many days of my life.
I used to be more accepting of it because I was in my 20s and didn’t give a frick, but I’m 31 now and still floundering in uni while trying to balance hobbies/personal projects. Shit is maddening at times.

I don’t own a switch so no
No. I don't play video games for more than 2 hours a day, I don't play the same game or genre of game over and over again, and I have other hobbies as well.
I don't play multiplayer games either or MMORPGS, I complete one game, I move on to the next one to complete. There's so many good games out there to play, I play older titles like Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis for example, it keeps the experience fresh.
I'm starting to think maybe I don't actually like video games...
nah. I fill my life with other fulfilling activities. Spreading them all out keeps them fresh.
>been emulating older saturn and PS2 games
>have wo long and valkyrie elysium demos downloading right now
nah i love video games.
No, but I'm getting bored of your Redditbob ass.
Go. Back.
As a hobby, yes.
There's frick all that looks decent that's coming out and it's getting too expensive anyways. I've just recently sold my PS4 collection.
I did buy a Switch Lite earlier this year and been playing Xenoblade Chronicles 1 on and off. It's pretty good, it became great when Dunban joined the party. Considering Splatoon 3 but I'm not sure if an online shooter on the Lite would be the best decision,
I'm bored of the human experience
>I'm bored of the human experience
Sounds like you need to find a new experience then, anon
It'll happen when it happens. Until that day comes, I'll just patiently wait.
No. Did you ever actually like video games, or did you simply try to fill the void with games? It doesn't work.
Kind of, but I think it's more so that games have just gotten much worse
I'm 30 and I play maybe 1 video game per month if that.
Visiting Ganker makes me hate videogame
No
no, frickoff with your bot threads
