Unironically, this.
When I started feeling the burnout and stopped having fun playing video games and watching anime, I took up solo fishing.
I don't know why, I'm not an outdoorsy guy, and I haven't been fishing in over 20 years (I would have been 11 with my grandfather).
Fishing, and hiking in the woods to get to fishing spots, just felt more fulfilling, even if I was just standing in the same place for 20 minutes waiting for a bite compared to clicking 20 buttons a second.
And you know what? After a month of fishing, I could enjoy vidya again. I started finding vidya fun again, I started enjoying watching anime again. And any time I start to feel that boredom from vidya creeping I just go fishing.
I just need to find something interesting to do outside but there's really nothing like it in my city and my friends only want to drink and play magic.
Yeah, it's the lifestyle I've chosen and I see no reason why I'd be sad about it. OP sounds like he really wants to be normalgay without being textbook normalgay which is pretty impossible to achieve if you ask me
It's more about changing definition of 'okay life' to suit you and your lifestyle, rather than following what society considers 'okay life'.
OP lived all his life like an outcast, and yet for some reason he still subconsciously longed for being normalgay with wife, kids etc. which eventually led to him not enjoying his life anymore. The only solutions to that are either to accept yourself as such outcast weirdo and fully embrace it, or man the frick up and become actual normalgay, like Anon to whom I've replied first said. Sitting on the crossroads like this just won't work
>I wanna be a normalgay, but.. but.. it’s too le hard!
mopers like op don’t deserve empathy, he will just take it and bask in it and yet still never improve. if you have problems, (You) have to go solve them.
90% of people don't care about your problems and 10% are glad you have them because they're too busy dealing with their own problems that you probably don't care about either, hypocrite
im depressed and i know ive fricked at least ten times the women you have. thats where the depression comes from. ive achieved everything i ever dreamed of.. women, popularity, riches... and it does nothing to fill the empty void in my soul. none of those things fulfilled me. after i get my nut off i feel a deep wave of regret wash over me because i know women are just a distraction from my ambitions.
theres no innovation any more, and on top of that instead of refining what theyve done a dozen times already they manage to make it worse because they only care about selling hardware. the nerve.
these days i always feel best playing something where my imagination can run around a bit. the ai image generation tech is a lot of fun in that regard. or games with randomly generated levels. the wave of card based dungeon crawlers have been good for me, but i guess thats slowed down a lot. oh well.
Because you've played too many of them.
Unironically, after consuming a certain amount of media, it all becomes predictable and formulaic. Entertainment is a byproduct of a few factors and one of them is novelty. Nothing released lately is sufficiently novel and to make matters worse unlike in the 2000s companies endlessly release remakes to mild nostalgia cash from morons who want games to go back to being good like you.
games are actually getting worse.
I still enjoy the occasional movie, so it's not likely to be your mind.
it's just israeli execs ruining AAA and Indies are just a bunch of trannies so their ideas are always the same
Autism has nothing to do with it. I'm autistic myself and I'm able to function in the real world. You just have to not be a lazy frick more interested in blaming other things for your failings than putting in the effort.

So? Accept it. You don't have to be neurotypical to be happy. You need to find happiness within your limitations.
It’s the most enraging yet life correcting thing most people will ever read.
If you think this is deep, you're almost certainly intellectually limited yourself. The girl spews forth a self righteous word salad to say what everyone else already knows: she's superficial. She likes muscular guys who love to argue because she craves the attention and being with them makes her feel warm and fuzzy. It's fine to have preferences, but to pretend that this is some sort of epoch shattering revelation, and that she's anything other than an average, typically self immersed, young woman is pathetic.
There are smart people who fall for smart people and have smart kids. She just isn't one of them.
You’re just trying to protect your ego. Take it from someone who was you, just eat the shit now and improve your whole life. At the very least be aware that women like that exist and you’ll likely encounter one who feels similar.
>you’ll likely encounter one who feels similar

I am not concerned with having too much sex, for obvious reasons
The meta of this website has become to always be a doomer homosexual. "Everything good is bad and everything bad is good" type of shit. "Oh youre a kind, loving guy? Well too bad, women hate you."
Its pathetic. Its beyond parody. Its misery porn for people whove got way too much time on their hands. This conflation that being "normal" is something great to aspire to be is just making things hard for yourself for no reason.
No. Things are just kind of shitty right now across the board. Its like this everywhere. Everyone loves to be a "nihilist" which is just code for "Im better than everybody". Ganker has its particularities but twitter homosexuals are just as unhinged. Even Instagram. Like 30 something women on Instagram. Try just reading some of the unhinged shit they say, they sound like Elliot Rodger. Even the most misogynistic incel wouldnt be able to conjure up some of the things these women say, only their target is men.
Bottom line is: Everybodys kinda fricked up, nobody is really sure of themselves despite what they tell you, and its very much normal to have feelings of hatred and despair. There are very few people that dont get tangled up in that one way or another. The only real difference is that young men are just told to suck it up or theyre useless homosexuals, but again, those people are also in pain.
>"Oh youre a kind, loving guy? Well too bad, women hate you."
well that is true unless you found different brain-wired unicorn,
the wet-meter which is the only thing women accept is how much sociopathic the mating partner is, nothing dry's a common women more than a guy that is empathetic,
at best cases which is also ultra-rare is indifference to it that is the only option for a stable relationship that could actually work
You give women far too much credit. They mostly just want to feel safe. They dont wanna think or act, they want someone to do that for them. You cant confuse being kind and loving to being a pushover who cant impose himself.

I wouldn't go that far, I'm here after all. It has its perks but sometimes I wonder if I'm human at all with how detached I am from all this shit.
It's like I have all the answers (for me at least) but it's something that I can't share with other people or help ease their own suffering. When I try to explain, it isn't something they can do because it's like telling someone to stop drinking water or eating in their eyes. It just sounds absurd.

There’s definitely a translation that needs to be made when sharing advice, to the point it becomes preposterous how slowly you have to explain things often. It’s very frustrating and takes years to hone but remember not to lose your sense of what you know is right in getting there. I’ve found a good way to share advice is to hide it as general rule of thumb stuff so as not to make someone feel targeted, or they’re likely to stop listening.
I spent ten years in a sexless marriage because I didn’t take the “nice guys are boring” message seriously enough. I’m still nice, I’m just also much more aggressive now. What a mistake to expect a woman to fall in love with your mind and think that’ll be enough.
tbh if it was brought down to that single sentence instead of being a large comprehensive explanation then it would be considerably more trivial to be handwaved away instead of actually being engaged with as it clearly has been since it's been posted for so long
Women are boring in general. Its up to men to teach them to have a personality. They otherwise will never develop one.
It might come as a surprise, but its really obvious if you think about it: Women are just lost. All the feminist messaging of being independent and not relying on men essentially just translates into them trying to be like men, which they inevitably end up regretting. Its a much worse deal than spending your 20s aimlessly because youre not sure of your place in the world like 99% of the guys in this thread are. Its going to get better for these guys, theyre going to eventually find something or someone. Women are not raised to think independently, hence they just copy what men are doing. They are like children playing house.
>Women are just lost. All the feminist messaging of being independent and not relying on men essentially just translates into them trying to be like men, which they inevitably end up regretting.
This. This is why it’s a guys market and will be for a very very long time. Once we figure out as a group to be direct and contradict women, things will improve. They’re literally begging you to take charge with their entire soul, don’t deny them that. You know what’s fricked up and what isn’t for the MOST part even if you’re not perfect, you can tell by now. You can’t let that not being perfectly right about everything shame you out of standing up for what you DO know is right. You wanna know the fastest way to frick a woman who’s stand offish? You make her angry. You debate her. You prove her wrong and make her emotional, you catch her on every point and she will either get on her knees in front of people or she’ll run away with hurt pride. She’ll openly call you impressive and tell you that you have a gift for speech. You never bend unless you’re clearly wrong. Sounds impossible doesn’t it? That’s why you never see it, ever, and that’s why you don’t know how to do it. Our entire country forgot how to stand up to women and they fricking hate us for it. They despise anytime they say some moronic shit and he agrees with her just to frick her, it’s slimy. Stop lying homie. They know you’re a man better than you do, probably.
The real redpill is that you treat women like toddlers.
If a toddler is trying to convince you of some stupid shit, like that he saw Santa Claus, do you try to bicker and debate him? Do you tell him he's lying? No, you don't get down to his level, you just dismiss him "sure kid, I saw Santa too when I was little, he took me to see Elvis on the moon". Don't even engage women. They're not important. Bickering signals that they're important enough to waste your time with stupid ideas.
Why the frick can’t women just entertain themselves and then have sex when we’re horny
Like I’m not saying we can’t go to plays and restaurants and sporting events and stuff but women just want you to be a monkey it’s absurd
Tldr >All men want sex But women would rather be with the impulsive lower iq brute than the calculating smart man
This is exactly why so many women are unhappy ,what a bunch of fricking morons.
The last blurb of text is so fricking male brained, makes me really confused as to who this is cope for. Most people are just gutter trash sloshing about in their specific brand of maladaption, nobody has any high horse or road, every last neurotic moron will propogate their mental illness to their offspring in an endless cycle of abuse, this is all a feature of the species.
Nothing she says here stops her from being a b***h for saying that to a man who his confessing his feelings.. Imagine the self-obsessed narcissist that would actually write and publish that like it's an own. I wonder if it was a woman or a troon, probably a troon pretending.
The worst thing about this comic is that the man who wrote that watery, pseudo-intellectual word soup does not (nor has he ever) lived by any of the words he put to paper while making this. It's just to bait morons. Like me for example, who knew all this and chose to respond anyway.

now im back lving with parents working at construction with uncle.
hate that work but need money.

Weird how cold-war propaganda is still relevant in 2024
Communism is a system where money and government doesn't even exist. Basically like nomadic hunter-gatherer tribes lived, they were communist.
USSR was trying to transition to communism but never achieved it, because it's frankly impossible once you already have money/government. You can become heavily socialist though
>Communism is a system where money and government doesn't even exist.
As an American I can tell you what we have is worse than not having a government. Most incompetent ineffective useless government in the history of the United States right now. Communism is here in that sense.

who expects the cruel uncaring outside world to pull down their pants and start sucking their dick the moment they walk outside? there’s an old saying, it goes, “seize the day”
that's what babies do, because they are powerless. People like OP have been neglected as a child and therfore never grew out of this stage. They are perpetually stuck in this stage and far too few even realise that. They need mothers love and fathers guidance to grow but they will never have any. The solution is to learn how to be the parent you wanted to have and then you will grow up
unlike what school taught you, you do not need to discombobulate your vocabulary in order to fit an arbitrary number of words when writing something. doing that in a meme, and not for comedic effect, is extremely gay
Memes are supposed to be concise and obvious in their intent. You should be able to see the meaning within 3 seconds. That's the whole point. If it does have any long text it should only be for additional flavor and unnecessary to convey the intent (for example the virgin/chad meme)
The OP is just a sob story pasted on top of an image

You spend all day listening to people telling you that video games suck and listing thousands of specious, contrived, or fabricated reasons and telling you to get upset about things that don't matter at all and that there's nothing worth even trying, and you start believing it.

Gaming is a nice supplement to a fulfilling life, but is itself hollow and void of real achievement. It is pure escapism, and retreating into video games will make your life worse in the long run. You need a solid foundation.
>wahhh i'm sad
genuine skill issue. i still find life fun and if you're actually """depressed""", i recommend killing yourself asap because you're very clearly a failure of a person and a parasite denying more important people, like me, resources.
Probably because you want to do something else. If you want a social spend time getting that. If you want x go after x. This is not a place for discussing these things. Go on advice or better yet a website were people will give you better answers like reddit.
>reddit
They give worse answers every single time. Often on-par with the ones in these threads at best. The core of the problem is that they are context sensitive, and the more filters/people you put a solution through the worse it gets.
Their advice offers no new perspective and is incredibly useless. Repeating the same answers yields the same result: unfulfilled and unmotivated people.

I'm a technocrat. I'm not waiting for society to collapse so my ideology could "rise from the ashes", I await the fall of society because I realized that the idea of knowledgable and respectable people -who actually cares about the people- instead of lying corrupted scums manipulating crowds for their selfish, personal gains in charge is incompatible with human societies as a whole.
I just hope we get a cool post-apocalyptic mood or something.
Self loathing homosexuals who latched onto video games because they're aimless and directionless are the shittiest posters on this board. Frick off morons, video games are for people who actually like them.
There just seems to be a bizarre amount of hyper sensitivity whenever anyone complains about the state of the industry. It’s like a throwaway complaint is built into an entire life diagnosis complete with life hack guides. Screams of projection by users struggling with it themselves who feel the need to hide or deny it for some reason. Probably a fear of becoming outcast? I can’t imagine any logical reason to become so upset that other people aren’t happy unless it’s a hypersensitive social connection thing where kids just can’t stand seeing other people in pain so they try to diagnose and fix it. We all do that, but I’ve noticed this exact phenomenon for over 20 years now. Same reactions, same anger.

If you’re just gonna die might as well try the old trick where you smoke so much pot for so many months you bypass the munchies to the point you can’t feel hunger pains.

this whole website is like this. Its just that on Ganker they are far less to be banned and unlike /LULZ/ they won't get ignored with their post being archived with no replies for millionth of time.
Why do you think they are here? Nobody else gives them attention that they most likely were denied since they were a child.
taking risks and being realistic about your goals. Only time when people truly change their behaviour is after near death scenarios. Only then we can truly change. If you truly want to end yourself then do it, but not in your room, do it somewhere that you know will move you, somewhere that will make you think twice about ending or wasting your life. Either you survive and find new love for life or you will die trying. I do not wish for anyone to end their lifes but I know personally that no amount words and good intentions will change or remidy your depression and apathy. And one of more reliable ways for lack of better word ''sober up'' a person is close meeting with death,
And if you do survive be realistic about goals you take, don't aim for loving woman, a house, friends and a good job. You should aim for small things like getting out of bed, eating something healthy for once, not forgetting to brush your teeth, actually talking to a clerk at a shop instead of just glaring at them. If you keep it up then gradually you might have a chance to get previously mentioned things like home and friends.

Also all the time throughout hs i had people ask me to hang out or come to a party or a school trip or whatever and i'd just never accept and then i'd go home and play vidya.
School shrink told me i 'm autistic but the autist diagnostician said i'm all good just really depressed.
Rn i have 0 friends 0 romantic interests 0 money and 0 skills and i've played all good vidya.
I'll be starting construction site slave labour and investing 80% of my paycheck into BTC tho.
If it goes well i'm gonna neet for a few years and then kys.
>Shhh, don’t tell anybody this. But listen to podcasts until you autistically analyze human behavior. It takes about ten years to study enough to fake being normal starting from 0. This is cringe knowledge. You can’t share this with anyone.
>i always had people interested in me and i would just spaz out and isolate >Refused because i havent been around people for years so i'd spaz
I'm the same way. Every time I've agreed though, often after people twist my arm, I've almost always had a great time and never acted as autistic as I feared. I even met online friends IRL after years of being a practical shut-in and we got on just as well as a voice call like we grew up together. I'm not gonna implore you to change your life but if you get another chance then it's worth giving it a shot. If people want to meet up to begin with then you're probably not nearly as much of a spaz as you're worried about being and it's almost certainly not gonna be nearly as a much of an unpleasant experience as you feel it will. I still have to remind myself of that logically a lot and force myself to go out even when there's copious amounts of evidence that I'll have a good time and my friends enjoy my company.
Why would you want to have a nice day? Don't you know what happens when you die? Don't you know everybody regrets what they've done after they've done it, in their last fleeting seconds of life?
This is true. Frequently survivors that tried, as soon as they jumped were like oh shit shit shit I fricked up bad oh god please let me live oh Jesus, and then WHAM.
Unironically, find a place with a volunteer program and get signed up. Hospital, SPCA, museum, aquarium, planetarium, whatever tickles your fancy. They don't give a shit about what you look like or if you got weird vibes or whatever; if you're breathing, you qualify. It'll get you out of the house and socializing on neutral ground, you'll learn new things and expand your brain, those companies will give you thank you gifts, and it'll be an experience that helps you out of your funk. I started volunteering work at a public aquarium when I was a teenager and it's good for me, its kept me out of a lot of different funks like OPs.
Any excuses not to do this is cope, plain and simple.
You just need to find the right games. I most recetly had actual fun playing the big catch demo. momentum platformers scratch an itch i forgot i had. You need to find the type of game you like
1. You spend too much time on Ganker (still a form of social media which is unhealthy).
2. You have no other hobbies so you might be burnt out on gaming.
3. A lot of games are just straight up garbage these days but they take twice as long to develop.
4. You’re not eating right/exercising/getting enough sleep. People seem to think these things dont affect their mood but they are proven to cause people to feel incredibly worse.
Just get a good night’s sleep, exercise more often focus on something else than gaming for a while and when you come back it might feel refreshing. Focus on the things you know you need to do but have been putting off for whatever reason. Once you do those things you’ll feel less guilty in your leisurely time, but dont scrap “fun” altogether. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Pursue something you’re passionate about in your free time, a little each day and it adds up.
I'm saying that I laugh at weaklings who are too weak to withstand the truth of this world... I have been living in the darkness for all my life... Yes the darkness has changed me but I just keep moving forward like they do in my anime... I bet one day these will be the days I long to return to...
The magic is gone is the real answer if youre reading. Some of that magic is gone because people now are not using the internet the same way. Original wow/EQ/hell the internet all the way up to 2005 used to to connect and collaborate. It's now used by people to waste time, try to get famous because of reaction videos, or vent. The internet is not the same and the next gen of kids got older and are using it and thats....how they are using it. At 35 I watched all of it change since we had dial up for my father for work and it really was just forums more than anything. I have been using emulators to conquer demons from my child like past, because I had no access to the information other than other kids at school or reading a giant long gamefaq where some legend of a man typed out a handwritten map with backslashes and lines. You also had more free time when you were younger. It feels like we are supposed to grow out of it but what I found was when I was younger I absolutely loved single player games, then I would never play them, and now going backwards to single player games....feels like going backwards. The only thing I have done with video games I have liked is try to share them with my kids and help them if they need it. My oldest is 6 I helped set up Oblivion on god mode and now shes learning to use the PC and we can do that together. My middle was playing OOT on a 2ds I picked up for a steal. I was able to play Majoras mask for the first time on the 3ds and be near my family while they do their thing and help if needed. Gaming for me has changed into the next decade. I still miss the feeling of grouping up with the same 8-12 people, I had schedules of what I would play and when and on what day and life gets in the way now, a lot. I just find that older games were made with the intent of being fun, not profitable. All media seems to be a product of marketing and nothing else now. That is what hurts.

most are too moronic to venture into other boards to post shit in a place that's actually on-topic and wouldn't just get 404'd by a janny
Leftism gives you nihilism
nihilism gives you celibacy and abortion
celibacy and abortion gives you immigration because others have to fill the void to keep society running
Your lack of purpose makes leftism appealing to you as it tells you socialism will solve all your problems if you can just get rid of 2 min hate redhats, orange man etc
Not having family around you gives you lack of purpose
Both capitalism and leftism want you to not have your family, leave your family, replace you family with immigrants
Your lack of purpose makes you anti social
Anti social traits make you parasocial
Parasocialism is your short answer, and the longer answer is QED above for you.
Frick off with this existential crisis over gaming bs, I notice you didn't just leave the gaming board and pick up another hobby btw. No matter what you choose to do, you will still be you and that's the root of the problem.

Remember when u could run around in minecraft even though that world was always empty? Or u could queue for another match in asshomosexuals because gameplay loop of winning your lane and doing all team ganks was fun.
Well that's not going back. Booting up some rpg and looking under every rock for hidden items or jokes might take away boredom temporarily but will not give the same satisfaction if u would start playing that game ten years ago.
Now to finish up this reddit tier post. When in doubt u can always start browsing /x/. Watch out for malicious spirits though!
You homies gotta play more games, not only are their a bunch of old games I haven't played there also new ( at least indie AAA is fricked atm) games being released that I'm enjoying
Video games should always be to pass the time until you get to do things you actually want. I only play video games nowadays when I'm waiting for a girl to text me back or something, saves me staring at my phone counting the minutes like a freak.
If they were my ONLY source of enjoyment I would blow my head off, and that's the problem with you homies. Video games weren't made as a substitute for the real things that make us happy as humans, i.e love, making connections and hobbies.
tldr; video games are something to do when you're bored and morons base their whole lives on them and wonder why their miserable
>Video games should always be to pass the time until you get to do things you actually want.
Everything I do is passing time until i get back to doing what I actually want, which is playing video games. This has been the case for me for like 30+ years, i will never understand these threads
Very few people are at liberty to lead a "rich and fulfilling" life, whatever the frick your standards for that are. Even most normalgays just go to work, come home, get drunk, watch TV and go to bed for 60-80 years and then die. Wow what a great life, glad they didn't waste it playing video games!

Anon plenty of people have loving families, close friends and go on to have good jobs and decent lives. Your life in particular may not be great but unless you live in a third world shithole or have crippling mental illness, claiming existence is mostly suffering is very dramatic. Sometimes people on this site talk about their lives being horrific and its literally just a girl didn't like them back or something lmao. Relax man, go watch a movie with friends or pet a dog, life is pretty good.

It's egotistic to believe the world shuns you because you are you. It's your own actions and thoughts that shape how the world treats you. You have control over your actions and thoughts and you can change your life for the better if you put some effort into changing yourself.

belive me anon. All of us adhd people DESPISE the idea of taking those meds. I remember too when I gaged at the idea of needing pills to have remotely bit better life but after wasting years of trying to maintain anything in my lfie and nearly dying because of it I swolled bigger pill: I have 2 realistic choices, either I have short but bitter sweet life thanks to pills or I can live longer but be bitter about all those opportunities I missed. If taking the pills means I get to finally make some friends, to get a job that doesn't suck the life out of me and maybe even a kid by a miracle then Ill take it; even if my brain might turn to mush at age of 50.
It might be stupid but maybe that's what it takes to stop being paralyzed so much, stupid people don't think, they do and what I wish is to do something instead of sitting on my ass and on Ganker all day.

Funny, I did the same all throught the high school, in fact its quite common for people with adhd to be in denial about it. But again, do your own research and I mean proper research, look into symptoms and think of any examples that you can relate to those symptoms; and if there is a pattern then you turn for actual diagnosis; not the other way around because that's how the people get overdiagnosed; they didn't do their own research and just agree to things that psychatrists say are vaguely similiar but in reality are normal, for instance how you forgot lunch one time but it was just one time so its not really adhd
Couldn't do it when i had infinite time. How am i supposed to do it in-between twelve hour shifts? Do you really think i'll sit down and doodle for an hour or two after hauling ass at a construction site all day? The only reason i'd ever believe that woud be to lie to myself that i'll ever be anything but a slaveworkerprovider.
pulling out a pocket book to doodle on a lunch break was pure bliss while i was working
zero harm to try, anon. if it doesn’t work then it doesn’t work. but if it does, you might have a fun diversion between busy moments.
i bought and liked moleskine pocket books, they really do fit right in the pocket but maybe a bit big if you got small pockets. i don’t know if the price is going up these days, though.
even pocket notepads can be fun and much cheaper to draw on, just make sure the lines on the paper aren’t very dark or else it’ll get in the way of your drawing

i had a pack of silicon pencil erasers that you just cap onto the end of your pencil, and a metal cap that covers the pencil’s lead tip from breaking. you’re right, in that drawing from imagination is something you gotta ease into. at first, i would look at my phone for references.
it was hard and sometimes felt pointless, but the way i saw it, it was better than just browsing Ganker on my breaks, i guess.. eventually you start doodling a little picture you’re somewhat proud of and like looking at, and it makes you want to draw more.
Not good enough to doodle anything that would warrant being. Cant do people or even basic shapes right. I've given up already anyway. Stuff like that is for talented people, someone has to clean the toilets

You do a hobby because it's enjoyable, not because you have talent for it, you insufferable homosexual. You deserve to rot in your wage cage if you won't take even the smallest baby steps towards some happiness. Frick you, get your shit together.
The only thing I draw well are dragons and I fricking suck at drawing anything else. Just find one thing you like to draw and max out your skill drawing that one thing.
I think game play peaked during the 360/ps3 era. Most new games or sequels are an inferior version of their 360/ps3 era game. Battlefield is a great example, BC2/BF3/BF4 were peak and BF2042 is a mid game that struggles to be BF4.
The game play in most games now is so shit, I'd rather just play some FOTM F2P slop and watch a movie rather than dropping $100 on something i probably wont like.
I think looking back, the 7th gen is the end of an era of innovation that began with the rise of raster 3d rendering tech and networking in the early 1990s. The 7th gen is when we stopped making games that were fun and began to make online "experiences" that monetized every aspect of the game. Budgets ballooned and the risk and innovation got curtailed, leading us to the boring swamp AAA is today.
This whole thread is plagued with midwits and dimwits. I'm so fricking sick of these attention whoring failed men spamming the same off-topic trash that everyone complains about daily

He could've exercised, learned a skill, joined a club, or spent time outside doing something useful where you get more of a chance to socialize around more like minded people.
I was the same way until I was 16 and realized I had to get over myself. Got a job, followed other hobbies, took chances and dealt with the consequences etc. Being in a state of inaction does nothing for. So If you're stuck in that cycle, just remember it is always YOUR fault, it's YOUR responsibility to get better even if other people fail you on some level.

LOOK AT THIS FRICKING BULLSHIT >WOW YOU FRICKING WORTHLESS SUBHUMAN INCEL WHY ARENT YOU OBDEIANTLY GETTING FRICKED IN THE ASS WHILE THE ENTIRE WORLD HATES YOU AND WANTS YOU DEAD AND LAUGHS AT YOU WHILE WE FORCE YOU TO DO SHIT YOU DONT WANT TO DO FOR GOYBUX
nah you know what im not gonna die yet, im not goING TO FRICKING DIE BECAUSE OF YOU. you think your on top of the world huh you have a car huh you have a house huh? well none of that will fricking matter when the war breaks out because your used to your life of lukewarm happyniess and you worthless goyfriend pretends to like you while she spends all your money on goyslop/netflix subscription/nintendo switch "games"
I have walked this earth alone and experience s the dark and light that is within this world, you homosexuals have always been in the light while ive been in the darkness but you know what im not fricking mad about it because one day my strength will be recogniaed and when it all comes falling down i will become the monster that i really am and you low level npcs will just be more xp for me. Enjoy sex with your ugly 3dpd std ridden prostitute wife, that will likely be the last modicum of joy you will experience in this fricked up world...
I just realized myself that it is because my mind is craving for something else that games just don't provide so just trying to squeeze games and hoping that they would eventually make me happy just isn't how it works.
I didn't stop gaming, but i started to just do more other things and instead just play less and every now and then i run into a game again that just feels like something special and gives me that spark to keep me engaged
>don't feel sorry for yourself
Immediately begins feeling sorry for himself. Do meme people really? Get a fricking job and/or some responsibilities. Wtf are you "escaping" from anyway?? Pathetic homosexuals I have been trapped with, forever. Frick me
>AHHHHHHHH I AM LE LONELY INCEL LOSER >AHHHHHHHH THE INCEL LOSER SHOULD JUST TAKE A SHOWER
If you are 5000x times better than a bum you are still human, which is the bum of existence.
i'm thinking of getting a vehicle. my job lets me work at any location and there's a couple thousand of them around the states. i've never traveled, my lease is up in two months, but i have no friends or family that would help me if an emergency came up.
>Is there a reason why I don't find games fun anymore vee?
You're probably getting older and haven't noticed.
And of course, getting older is no excuse, just realize that your experiences can be richer if you stop being a homosexual and get off your ass and go find stimulating things to do instead of posting on social networks.
because you got older and realized you've wasted your life and the skills you've developed playing games mean nothing and are going to get you nowhere in life
Truth is that they would've wasted their time on something else equally unimportant.
People today all have an unrealistic expectation they're destined for greatness despite our population being larger than ever and only a handful of people ever having a significant impact in the world through history.
You could spend your entire life focusing on winning the rat race and barely come away with a million dollars which won't be able to buy you anything worth wasting your life over.
A lambo or boat isn't worth slaving in the office doing 70 hour weeks for 25 years.
You could argue that having a wife and kid is a form of success but i've seen tons of people who seemed like chads who had it all. Got divorced and lost everything and now they have the most totally fricked up lives of all.
I don't feel like it's a waste, but that's because in pursuit of video games I learned other small things along the way. There are transferable soft skills if you've practiced them.
Like having to deal with folders and computer software to get some games to work, a lot of people overlook it but boomers are too inept and zoomers grew up using apps without having to deal with the nitty-gritty of it.
I had a massive vocabulary from reading and playing video games.
I remember at like 13 I used the word "neophyte" and my teacher said I didnt know what that meant, and when I defined it he backed down.
I learned it from world of warcraft lmao
This, I have a job in an office with a bunch of oldies and women and Ive basically become unfireable now because I’m literally just that good with bypassing shit in the shitty system we use and coming up with workarounds to slow ass computers. It’s braindead easy and I don’t have to do anything else because they want me focused on making sure everyone else can do their jobs for the day. Sure I’d rather be home, but I quite literally sleep on the job and don’t get reprimanded and I finish my work so fast that once the supervisors leave I can just do whatever I want until it’s quitting time. Free money, and I keep myself sane by coming home and doing my hobbies.
>got my first "job" playing a asiatic mmo i enjoyed and selling replays/footage/packets/quest text and descriptions+guides to private server admins >conquered my horrid accent caused anxiety by joining sv_alltalk 1 servers >made lots of connections from video games and communities around it >made (and still do) a lot of money off of mods for games >most recently started a patreon that makes a decent sum of money off of animations/drawings of video game characters

love em simply love em
Honestly the only people that don't enjoy games are those that suck at them.
When you're good at something you like doing it, doesn't matter what it is.
>stopped visiting Ganker >stopped playing "competitive" garbage like fightingshit or LMAO card games >started playing games that rewarded me for intelligence like zach >started playing games i was interested in and only those >never been happier

help me Ganker, I've developed a fatal dependency to getting into the army, and if I get disqualified I'm splattering my brains out onto the wall; having a criminal charge and ~3 disqualify worthy medical conditions, this is probably about as good an idea as leaded gasoline, but I don't care, devoting myself to exercising and meeting standards was literally life changing, and I want to feel like fricking superman again, I want the high that comes with being in control of your life, and I'm tired of switching between being blackpilled as frick and feeling like I could skullfrick somebody into a paste. >tfw I'm a shell of a man unless I'm batshit fricking manic and my heart hurts
I've had conversations with friends that were so sick and bored with videogames, but they also refused to play anything not popular or older than 3 years
The irony here is that when I tell people on Ganker that I enjoy games like Wuthering Waves they start seething. The reality is (You) reading this are broken inside. Unlike you I still enjoy video games and can find joy out of the little things in life while (You) can only be angry at my joy.
How can you claim the games are not fun when you're spending the dopamine or whatever elsewhere. Imagine playing vidya all day n night and then going to the gym. Cmon now guys..
>start working out last year >feel pretty great when I'm at the gym but like shit I'm not >slowly realize I just adopted it as another form of escapism
i didnt beat the game. the game... beat me.
It's because of you

I truly do want to be sober, Im tired of constant highs and comedowns and withdrawals and all the wasted money and fricking myself up. but I dont understand what to do all day or what to live for
I literally had to go through rehab nine times before I got even a year sober. Now relapsed. Rehab is the only way I know of man. I’m sorry.
>Can someone seriously tell me how to not use drugs and alcohol with these stats?
Just don't?
it’s not that simple, that anon sounds FRICKED
Gonna be honest, you sound like someone who just needs to die. You're dysgenic as frick, and you sound moronic too so you basically only exist to take up space and convert food into shit for 70 years.
You need to live and spite all those morons bashing you. You are valid.

Yeah, sure buddy

sorry.
>They hit the eject button on that last thread and deleted it
I’m sure that was a purely logical decision with no emotion behind it.
because gaming isnt actually doing anything, you a pressing plastic buttons while staring into space.
you brain isnt experiencing anything, go climb a fricking tree or something.
Unironically, this.
When I started feeling the burnout and stopped having fun playing video games and watching anime, I took up solo fishing.
I don't know why, I'm not an outdoorsy guy, and I haven't been fishing in over 20 years (I would have been 11 with my grandfather).
Fishing, and hiking in the woods to get to fishing spots, just felt more fulfilling, even if I was just standing in the same place for 20 minutes waiting for a bite compared to clicking 20 buttons a second.
And you know what? After a month of fishing, I could enjoy vidya again. I started finding vidya fun again, I started enjoying watching anime again. And any time I start to feel that boredom from vidya creeping I just go fishing.
I just need to find something interesting to do outside but there's really nothing like it in my city and my friends only want to drink and play magic.
>and my friends only want to drink and play magic.
people need to understand that shitty friends are worse than no friends
well the dad says it all, and the son’s response is cope. boohoo, i was rejected. we all pick ourself up and keep going.
The only energy I’ve found to have to escape this is what I refer to as “safe-aggressive”. Figure out what that means and you’re set.
What does in mean?
>we all pick ourself up and keep going.
I'd rather pick myself up and keep gooning
Well as long you’re not moping around like OP, you do you.
Yeah, it's the lifestyle I've chosen and I see no reason why I'd be sad about it. OP sounds like he really wants to be normalgay without being textbook normalgay which is pretty impossible to achieve if you ask me
>Bro it’s basically impossible to live an okay life I’ll just goon instead
Anon I fear you’re being a tad cheeky
It's more about changing definition of 'okay life' to suit you and your lifestyle, rather than following what society considers 'okay life'.
OP lived all his life like an outcast, and yet for some reason he still subconsciously longed for being normalgay with wife, kids etc. which eventually led to him not enjoying his life anymore. The only solutions to that are either to accept yourself as such outcast weirdo and fully embrace it, or man the frick up and become actual normalgay, like Anon to whom I've replied first said. Sitting on the crossroads like this just won't work
normalgays are incapable of empathy
>I wanna be a normalgay, but.. but.. it’s too le hard!
mopers like op don’t deserve empathy, he will just take it and bask in it and yet still never improve. if you have problems, (You) have to go solve them.
hard for people to hear, but true. a lot of people get addicted to wallowing in victomhood. i'm one of those people.
I used to be a massive loser like you, then I learned that no one cares and noting will come of it and I learned to carry on with my life
idk have you tried not being sad? 🙂
Empathy is not the same as enabling. I feel bad for anons in these situations, but there's literally only one solution if you want to keep living.
90% of people don't care about your problems and 10% are glad you have them because they're too busy dealing with their own problems that you probably don't care about either, hypocrite
only homosexuals and transsexuals are depressed
You're very desperate to paint everyone around you as gay/troony. Almost like it'd make it easier for you to come out yourself or something.
then why does gay mean happy
It doesnt
im depressed and i know ive fricked at least ten times the women you have. thats where the depression comes from. ive achieved everything i ever dreamed of.. women, popularity, riches... and it does nothing to fill the empty void in my soul. none of those things fulfilled me. after i get my nut off i feel a deep wave of regret wash over me because i know women are just a distraction from my ambitions.
OOHHH Life goes ooooooooon. Long after the thrill of livin is gone.
>lives life of hedonism
>is still empty and unfulfilled
Golly jee, I wonder why.
jokes on you ten times zero is still zero
>Everyone I dislike or something is actually a gay israelite indian mexican or something!
Must be nice being a happy 85 IQ robot
I would trade being straight for being a homosexual 10/10 times any day of the week. I fricking hate women so much
>I would trade being straight for being a homosexual 10/10 times any day of the week. I fricking hate women so much
but you are already a homosexual
Probably because you're a homosexual
theres no innovation any more, and on top of that instead of refining what theyve done a dozen times already they manage to make it worse because they only care about selling hardware. the nerve.
these days i always feel best playing something where my imagination can run around a bit. the ai image generation tech is a lot of fun in that regard. or games with randomly generated levels. the wave of card based dungeon crawlers have been good for me, but i guess thats slowed down a lot. oh well.
Another boring loser spam thread. Get out gay.
Degens that jerk off all day don't enjoy anything so you might as well frick off.
Because you've played too many of them.
Unironically, after consuming a certain amount of media, it all becomes predictable and formulaic. Entertainment is a byproduct of a few factors and one of them is novelty. Nothing released lately is sufficiently novel and to make matters worse unlike in the 2000s companies endlessly release remakes to mild nostalgia cash from morons who want games to go back to being good like you.
>it all becomes predictable and formulaic
No it is formulaic to begin with, its that you cant unnotice it.
games are actually getting worse.
I still enjoy the occasional movie, so it's not likely to be your mind.
it's just israeli execs ruining AAA and Indies are just a bunch of trannies so their ideas are always the same
What a grand, totally original opinion.
Yes, commonplace to recognise it so it isn't a one-off anon off his meds.
if you recognize the truth, why would it change until circumstances change?

Grow the frick up
I have autism, the world does not want me, I have not spoken to a human in 14 years.
Well I guess that's a good excuse ngl.
sounds like a you problem where you're more concerned with having a pity party than putting in the effort to change your situation.
Do you have a magic pill that can cure autism
No.
It takes work. But that doesn't mean it's impossible.
Autism has nothing to do with it. I'm autistic myself and I'm able to function in the real world. You just have to not be a lazy frick more interested in blaming other things for your failings than putting in the effort.
you are lying and do not have autism, frick off
It stings because deep down you know it's true
Let me just fix my problems when I have major depressive disorder, autism, anxiety and psychologists charge $350 a visit and anti-depressants don't work
Yes? what else are you going to do, Sit around moping about your problems for the rest of your life and doing nothing? It's admittedly not the easy route but it's still the better one in the long run.
Well..what else are you do? you've got maybe a good 30-40 years on you still. Do something with it
Well, there's not much I can do because getting a job would make me unable to collect disability, and I couldn't keep a job if I got one, and nobody would hire me because I'm autisitc, and if they did hire me they'd fire me because I don't have the athleticism or people skills to work minimum wage jobs
Work on your athleticism and people skills
being defeatist and having a victim complex is not helping you. you're able to type, walk, and talk? good, then slowly but surely you can find your way in life
>I'm autistic myself
No you're not. Are there things autistic people can fix and improve? sure, but sooner or later they'll hit a wall and that's the difference between you and people that are actually autistic. There's a grey zone in psychiatry were people get wrongly diagnosed ASD, you're either one of those or those sickos that claim to have autism for the sake of attention. No need to reply, too busy reading war statistics during the Napoleonic era.
>sooner or later they'll hit a wall
So? Accept it. You don't have to be neurotypical to be happy. You need to find happiness within your limitations.
I'm gonna go ahead and guess you don't have any other hobbies OP. Try disc golf, it's easy to get in to and got lots of depth in case you enjoy it
Sarah sounds like a bitc-

This image is absolutely ancient, yet somehow still so true.
It’s the most enraging yet life correcting thing most people will ever read.
If you think this is deep, you're almost certainly intellectually limited yourself. The girl spews forth a self righteous word salad to say what everyone else already knows: she's superficial. She likes muscular guys who love to argue because she craves the attention and being with them makes her feel warm and fuzzy. It's fine to have preferences, but to pretend that this is some sort of epoch shattering revelation, and that she's anything other than an average, typically self immersed, young woman is pathetic.
There are smart people who fall for smart people and have smart kids. She just isn't one of them.
You’re just trying to protect your ego. Take it from someone who was you, just eat the shit now and improve your whole life. At the very least be aware that women like that exist and you’ll likely encounter one who feels similar.
>you’ll likely encounter one who feels similar
Who gives a shit what they feel? I'm not interested in airheads. Do you think I care who won America's Got Talent this year? Same principle applies.
>Who gives a shit what they feel?
You will in about ten years when you realize how much more you could have taken for yourself.
>ugh... if only I'd fricked even more pussy... then my life would have been meaningful
I just don't see it. It's like getting depressed over having eaten too few legs of lamb.
I am depressed because I had way too much sex. Don't be like me kids, sex is dangerous.
I am not concerned with having too much sex, for obvious reasons
The meta of this website has become to always be a doomer homosexual. "Everything good is bad and everything bad is good" type of shit. "Oh youre a kind, loving guy? Well too bad, women hate you."
Its pathetic. Its beyond parody. Its misery porn for people whove got way too much time on their hands. This conflation that being "normal" is something great to aspire to be is just making things hard for yourself for no reason.
That's very true. Can't help but feel this site is some sort of misery farm built to further demoralise disenfranchised young men.
No. Things are just kind of shitty right now across the board. Its like this everywhere. Everyone loves to be a "nihilist" which is just code for "Im better than everybody". Ganker has its particularities but twitter homosexuals are just as unhinged. Even Instagram. Like 30 something women on Instagram. Try just reading some of the unhinged shit they say, they sound like Elliot Rodger. Even the most misogynistic incel wouldnt be able to conjure up some of the things these women say, only their target is men.
Bottom line is: Everybodys kinda fricked up, nobody is really sure of themselves despite what they tell you, and its very much normal to have feelings of hatred and despair. There are very few people that dont get tangled up in that one way or another. The only real difference is that young men are just told to suck it up or theyre useless homosexuals, but again, those people are also in pain.
Boy, people will say anything to prevent themselves from having to improve their outlook.
>"Oh youre a kind, loving guy? Well too bad, women hate you."
well that is true unless you found different brain-wired unicorn,
the wet-meter which is the only thing women accept is how much sociopathic the mating partner is, nothing dry's a common women more than a guy that is empathetic,
at best cases which is also ultra-rare is indifference to it that is the only option for a stable relationship that could actually work
You give women far too much credit. They mostly just want to feel safe. They dont wanna think or act, they want someone to do that for them. You cant confuse being kind and loving to being a pushover who cant impose himself.
The virgin moron.
The Chad knower.
>no blowing people away
shit version post the real one
>he spergs out and opens up with a paragraph
>she replies with a reddit post
I'm not reading that doomer slop. There is zero content here.
There is if you struggle with putting women on a pedestal
I don't think about women at all.
Well then you’re a better man than many of us
I wouldn't go that far, I'm here after all. It has its perks but sometimes I wonder if I'm human at all with how detached I am from all this shit.
It's like I have all the answers (for me at least) but it's something that I can't share with other people or help ease their own suffering. When I try to explain, it isn't something they can do because it's like telling someone to stop drinking water or eating in their eyes. It just sounds absurd.
There’s definitely a translation that needs to be made when sharing advice, to the point it becomes preposterous how slowly you have to explain things often. It’s very frustrating and takes years to hone but remember not to lose your sense of what you know is right in getting there. I’ve found a good way to share advice is to hide it as general rule of thumb stuff so as not to make someone feel targeted, or they’re likely to stop listening.
i just read this for the first time and i read it out loud and uh, yeah. yeah basically what she said is all tru.
I don't understand who is supposed to be "winning" in this comic. Both characters are complete narcs. Basically made for each other.
It’s just a long winded way if saying “nice guys are boring”
I spent ten years in a sexless marriage because I didn’t take the “nice guys are boring” message seriously enough. I’m still nice, I’m just also much more aggressive now. What a mistake to expect a woman to fall in love with your mind and think that’ll be enough.
My girlfriend fell in love with my mind. But she stayed for my wiener.
nobody wants to spend the restof their life with someone who bores the shit out of them
I'm not disagreeing. It's just a frickload of text for a simple message.
tbh if it was brought down to that single sentence instead of being a large comprehensive explanation then it would be considerably more trivial to be handwaved away instead of actually being engaged with as it clearly has been since it's been posted for so long
tru
Women are boring in general. Its up to men to teach them to have a personality. They otherwise will never develop one.
It might come as a surprise, but its really obvious if you think about it: Women are just lost. All the feminist messaging of being independent and not relying on men essentially just translates into them trying to be like men, which they inevitably end up regretting. Its a much worse deal than spending your 20s aimlessly because youre not sure of your place in the world like 99% of the guys in this thread are. Its going to get better for these guys, theyre going to eventually find something or someone. Women are not raised to think independently, hence they just copy what men are doing. They are like children playing house.
>They are like children playing house.
And the House always Wins
>Women are just lost. All the feminist messaging of being independent and not relying on men essentially just translates into them trying to be like men, which they inevitably end up regretting.
This. This is why it’s a guys market and will be for a very very long time. Once we figure out as a group to be direct and contradict women, things will improve. They’re literally begging you to take charge with their entire soul, don’t deny them that. You know what’s fricked up and what isn’t for the MOST part even if you’re not perfect, you can tell by now. You can’t let that not being perfectly right about everything shame you out of standing up for what you DO know is right. You wanna know the fastest way to frick a woman who’s stand offish? You make her angry. You debate her. You prove her wrong and make her emotional, you catch her on every point and she will either get on her knees in front of people or she’ll run away with hurt pride. She’ll openly call you impressive and tell you that you have a gift for speech. You never bend unless you’re clearly wrong. Sounds impossible doesn’t it? That’s why you never see it, ever, and that’s why you don’t know how to do it. Our entire country forgot how to stand up to women and they fricking hate us for it. They despise anytime they say some moronic shit and he agrees with her just to frick her, it’s slimy. Stop lying homie. They know you’re a man better than you do, probably.
The real redpill is that you treat women like toddlers.
If a toddler is trying to convince you of some stupid shit, like that he saw Santa Claus, do you try to bicker and debate him? Do you tell him he's lying? No, you don't get down to his level, you just dismiss him "sure kid, I saw Santa too when I was little, he took me to see Elvis on the moon". Don't even engage women. They're not important. Bickering signals that they're important enough to waste your time with stupid ideas.
Why the frick can’t women just entertain themselves and then have sex when we’re horny
Like I’m not saying we can’t go to plays and restaurants and sporting events and stuff but women just want you to be a monkey it’s absurd
Tldr
>All men want sex But women would rather be with the impulsive lower iq brute than the calculating smart man
This is exactly why so many women are unhappy ,what a bunch of fricking morons.
You're boring, Clyde.
The last blurb of text is so fricking male brained, makes me really confused as to who this is cope for. Most people are just gutter trash sloshing about in their specific brand of maladaption, nobody has any high horse or road, every last neurotic moron will propogate their mental illness to their offspring in an endless cycle of abuse, this is all a feature of the species.
why is john missing from panel 3?
he went to make a meal to eat while sarah puts war and peace to shame in the next panel
most likely playing shitty video games.
I read it, It was shit and I miss Airman.
Nothing she says here stops her from being a b***h for saying that to a man who his confessing his feelings.. Imagine the self-obsessed narcissist that would actually write and publish that like it's an own. I wonder if it was a woman or a troon, probably a troon pretending.
The worst thing about this comic is that the man who wrote that watery, pseudo-intellectual word soup does not (nor has he ever) lived by any of the words he put to paper while making this. It's just to bait morons. Like me for example, who knew all this and chose to respond anyway.
This comic was from a time when we thought women were still mostly rational
>You're a bad person, a selfish cowardly prick, because you're boring
Islam is right about women.
Modern civilization is collapsing because women are deciding who to reproduce with based on how "fun" a man is rather than how good of a father he would be.
This one just hurts.
>before she can respond I run away
>she was going to say yes but she never bothered to even look for me and confess herself
Probably one of the most obvious fake and gay stories I've ever read here
>Is there a reason why I don't find games fun anymore vee?
honestly for me its 2 things
>Im burned out from gaming
>Lots of new games are shit.
frickin oof man, ive been in similar boat ngl.
used to hangout with this one girl in school, Eventually finish school and go away to uni and the girl is one of very few people i kept in contact and even met after finishing school. we were pretty close At some point she even confessed love for me. but at some point i just started responding to her msgs less and less. its been like 3 or 4 years now since we last spoke.
closest ive been to having a gf and i blew it because i was the"im a terrible person and ill ruin her´" type of moron.
similarish boat.
been one of them gifted kids. never really studied but got good grades. then late HS and uni everything started to fall apart. been barely passing and never learned how to study. Didint help that i fricked up by choosing specialisation at uni that I absolutely hate.
now im back lving with parents working at construction with uncle.
hate that work but need money.
once i finish up my project car im genuinely considering suicide since the car is my one and only life goal.
but since im euro i cant just buy a shotgun and a single shell.
>once i finish up my project car im genuinely considering suicide since the car is my one and only life goa
I'm working construction to throw a ton into BTC. Once that makes me some extra buck(not expecting millions) i'm gonna neet for a few years off of the savings and then fricking kill myself
>closest ive been to having a gf and i blew it because i was the"im a terrible person and ill ruin her´" type of moron.
don't blame yourself, blame your single mother
>stopped going to school because of a girl
>parents did nothing
Do Americans really?
Larp posts are shit and obvious.
>>she dated the dick to make me jealous
>>in my idiocy i didnt notice the signs
damn thats some moronic cope
thank god this story is fake, because youd actually have to have a nice day if you made up those kinds of excuses. that goes for the side of the man and the woman here, jesus fricking christ
It’s not that crazy that a highschooler would try to make someone jealous for attention.
yes and people that age are notoriously moronic in their motivations, especially in romantic affairs
>gee i kinda like this guy, maybe i should ask him out?
>nah ill date a deadbeat for 3 years instead and then kill myself, that'll do the trick
Pseudo intellectual wall of text, both characters are morons. KYS

The easy solution is take all that energy and free time you have now and use it for the ultimate game of all. Fighting back against the Communist takeover of the world.
"Communist takeover" is when the 3 labor parties in the anglosphere remove references to socialism from all their party documents and openly endorse capitalism.
???
"Communist" just means "person I disagree with", don't overcomplicate things
>"Communist" just means "person I disagree with", don't overcomplicate things
Says a gaslighting communist / woke / gay / invader (all the same movement)
>Communist isn't just a word for everything I dislike!
>But you are all the things I dislike!
Zero self-awareness
It isn't self-awareness. It's awareness on a global scale.
How can you be aware of anything if you are imprecise in your language? You clearly don't know shit on the most basic level and are just an emotional moron lashing out at things he doesn't understand, but you expect me to believe you have insight into the world that exceeds such petty trivialities like "facts"
>He doesn’t know what communism means so he definitely hasn’t spent his entire life playing video games
Hmm? No that makes it more obvious he knows what he’s talking about in regards to games. Dude can’t look away from them long enough to find out.
You can't even follow the conversation m8
>It's called pattern recognition.
That's called schizophrenia.
>schizophrenia
No. You know exactly what I'm saying. You are exposed here.
Yes, I know what you're saying. You have zreo political awareness and suffer from the Dunning Kruger effect.
I doubt you even understand what the Dunning Kruger effect is but you like it because it sounds cool
Are you saying just before communism is installed and hundreds of millions of people die there are no signs?
>I doubt you even understand what the Dunning Kruger effect is but you like it because it sounds cool
Of course you would, because that is how you yourself operate.
>Are you saying just before communism is installed and hundreds of millions of people die there are no signs?
I am saying that you are wrong about what those signs are, and that you misattribute the ones you accidentally get right.
Communist revolutions are a response to capitalism in crisis.
>Communist revolutions are a response to capitalism in crisis.
Communism is not a response. It is an attack on successful Nations all throughout history. I can see you read just enough to know vocabulary but not history.
The signs are Corruption of institutions first and foremost, masking of free speech and censorship, rigged elections, floods of illegal invaders, and last but not least disarmament of the general population.
As I said, knowing that you little genius, what do you see all around the world right now?
>Communism is not a response. It is an attack on successful Nations all throughout history.
lmao
This your "pattern recognition" at work? It seems a little off.
>what do you see all around the world right now?
Capitalism in crisis.
It's called pattern recognition. In every country that has ever tried communism there were many things that came about just before it. Socialism, degenerate queer stuff, massive theft, looting, Corruption of all institutions, illegal immigration, Etc
So knowing that, what do you see all over the world?
Weird how cold-war propaganda is still relevant in 2024
Communism is a system where money and government doesn't even exist. Basically like nomadic hunter-gatherer tribes lived, they were communist.
USSR was trying to transition to communism but never achieved it, because it's frankly impossible once you already have money/government. You can become heavily socialist though
>Communism is a system where money and government doesn't even exist.
As an American I can tell you what we have is worse than not having a government. Most incompetent ineffective useless government in the history of the United States right now. Communism is here in that sense.

who expects the cruel uncaring outside world to pull down their pants and start sucking their dick the moment they walk outside? there’s an old saying, it goes, “seize the day”
that's what babies do, because they are powerless. People like OP have been neglected as a child and therfore never grew out of this stage. They are perpetually stuck in this stage and far too few even realise that. They need mothers love and fathers guidance to grow but they will never have any. The solution is to learn how to be the parent you wanted to have and then you will grow up
Are you jacking off as you type this? Good lord bro, whatever mental stage they’re in you’re definitely not in a good one either.

I still find games fun.
I am happy being NEET aside from getting no pussy. That's really the only problem in my life.
ESL or just moronic? That should take you less than 30 seconds to read.
unlike what school taught you, you do not need to discombobulate your vocabulary in order to fit an arbitrary number of words when writing something. doing that in a meme, and not for comedic effect, is extremely gay
Memes are supposed to be concise and obvious in their intent. You should be able to see the meaning within 3 seconds. That's the whole point. If it does have any long text it should only be for additional flavor and unnecessary to convey the intent (for example the virgin/chad meme)
The OP is just a sob story pasted on top of an image
its called a comic strip
can you see the new tonight
Yes, it's Ganker
You spend all day listening to people telling you that video games suck and listing thousands of specious, contrived, or fabricated reasons and telling you to get upset about things that don't matter at all and that there's nothing worth even trying, and you start believing it.
because you dont engage in anything else or have other hobbies besides gaming
>anon pretends to be depressed for (you)'s
Ganker is a magical place
>noooooo i'm actually really nihilistic and sad noooooooo don't tell me i'm not

>Been playing games for 20+ years
>Play almost every day
>Have fun every time
Sounds like a you problem gayboy
Gaming is a nice supplement to a fulfilling life, but is itself hollow and void of real achievement. It is pure escapism, and retreating into video games will make your life worse in the long run. You need a solid foundation.
>wahhh i'm sad
genuine skill issue. i still find life fun and if you're actually """depressed""", i recommend killing yourself asap because you're very clearly a failure of a person and a parasite denying more important people, like me, resources.
You sound like a mediocre b***h. You’ll be the first to go.

Probably because you want to do something else. If you want a social spend time getting that. If you want x go after x. This is not a place for discussing these things. Go on advice or better yet a website were people will give you better answers like reddit.

They give worse answers every single time. Often on-par with the ones in these threads at best. The core of the problem is that they are context sensitive, and the more filters/people you put a solution through the worse it gets.
Their advice offers no new perspective and is incredibly useless. Repeating the same answers yields the same result: unfulfilled and unmotivated people.

I'm a technocrat. I'm not waiting for society to collapse so my ideology could "rise from the ashes", I await the fall of society because I realized that the idea of knowledgable and respectable people -who actually cares about the people- instead of lying corrupted scums manipulating crowds for their selfish, personal gains in charge is incompatible with human societies as a whole.
I just hope we get a cool post-apocalyptic mood or something.
I still find games to be fun
Self loathing homosexuals who latched onto video games because they're aimless and directionless are the shittiest posters on this board. Frick off morons, video games are for people who actually like them.

New games are shit
The internet is shit
Go outside and organize a LAN
I don't find them fun anymore either OP
adulting sure is tough
There just seems to be a bizarre amount of hyper sensitivity whenever anyone complains about the state of the industry. It’s like a throwaway complaint is built into an entire life diagnosis complete with life hack guides. Screams of projection by users struggling with it themselves who feel the need to hide or deny it for some reason. Probably a fear of becoming outcast? I can’t imagine any logical reason to become so upset that other people aren’t happy unless it’s a hypersensitive social connection thing where kids just can’t stand seeing other people in pain so they try to diagnose and fix it. We all do that, but I’ve noticed this exact phenomenon for over 20 years now. Same reactions, same anger.

games are trash and cant play multiplayers anymore cause no friends, I've transferred to watching sports like 10 hours a day and shitposting on the side, days go by insanely quickly just like when I used to play vidya
part of it is you being older, but they actually have gotten worse in some ways. with private servers being replaced by matchmaking, multiplayer games no longer function as third places. i've been going to irl things instead
Also, turn your fricking lights on. Disgusting frick.
Least transcoded OP on Ganker right now.
They're just worse, that's it. The only solution is
>find a different hobby
>find older / obscure games to play
Except that he DID go outside, he'd see that's a load of bullshit. homie can talk all beautiful as an excuse from going outside, but facts are if he did he'd be fix all his shit. simple as
maybe we have become too restless to enjoy games, let's sleep for a few weeks
Why does the third part sound like it was written by a midwit incel? The father never said or implied a single thing about "friends," "friendship," or being any type of "socialite." Sad, he didn't listen to his father the first time, and he still chooses to not listen or understand his father even now.
grew up thinking I was the third paragraph
learned I was actually the second paragraph and just being a baby b***h.
now I am out with buds, have a full time career, have a wife and a kid. and I still find more than enough time to raise him, work out, build my home up, and play games with my buds.
You're just a baby and you need to grow up but unironically
people aren't rejecting you, nobody cares about anybody. build your own worth and want to live that isn't based on external validation
the same thing I wish I could tell my old self sooner YOU ARE A WORTHLESS c**t, FIX IT
>depression, autism, anxiety, psychologists peddling snake oil because I'm pretty much treatment resistant, have diabetes because parents pretty much neglectfully dumped sweets on me while I'm in my depression comas, spent my formative years doing nothing and now don't have the credentials to make anything out of myself, now have zero drive or energy to do anything except rot in my room and collect neetbux, don't even have the energy or capability to kill myself, goon to child porn for the last 5 years because i want to commit suicide by cop, still haven't been caught
this is a pretty deep bio anon, sounds personal maybe
If you’re just gonna die might as well try the old trick where you smoke so much pot for so many months you bypass the munchies to the point you can’t feel hunger pains. Lost eighty pounds in a few months. I doubt you’ll be enrolling in college anytime soon. Might as well cheat with drugs instead of making a poor tired cop shoot you.
How many people on this website are legit caught in anhedonia death spirals like this? I swear this board in particular feels like a graveyard of NEETs.
this whole website is like this. Its just that on Ganker they are far less to be banned and unlike /LULZ/ they won't get ignored with their post being archived with no replies for millionth of time.
Why do you think they are here? Nobody else gives them attention that they most likely were denied since they were a child.
Real question asked in good faith.
If i'm like this, what's the way out? I tried most selfhelp already and it didn't do much.
taking risks and being realistic about your goals. Only time when people truly change their behaviour is after near death scenarios. Only then we can truly change. If you truly want to end yourself then do it, but not in your room, do it somewhere that you know will move you, somewhere that will make you think twice about ending or wasting your life. Either you survive and find new love for life or you will die trying. I do not wish for anyone to end their lifes but I know personally that no amount words and good intentions will change or remidy your depression and apathy. And one of more reliable ways for lack of better word ''sober up'' a person is close meeting with death,
And if you do survive be realistic about goals you take, don't aim for loving woman, a house, friends and a good job. You should aim for small things like getting out of bed, eating something healthy for once, not forgetting to brush your teeth, actually talking to a clerk at a shop instead of just glaring at them. If you keep it up then gradually you might have a chance to get previously mentioned things like home and friends.
I'm in a similar situation except I never saw a psychologist or psychiatrist, I'm not collecting neetbux, and I don't have cheese pizza
so freakin edgy and twisted and freakin dark millenials are so badass zomers should be SCARED of us
It does sound like you're scared, to be honest
>goon to child porn for the last 5 years
You should believe in yourself anon you sound pretty based
>neetbux
How easy is it to collect neetbux in first world countries? I’ve seen so many posts of anons who mostly depend on it, but you must meet some strict requirements to be eligible for it, right?
The amount of feral normalBlack folk in this thread is disturbing to say the least.
if i had a button i could press to kill me id press it instantly
all americans have one and im jealous, impossible to get gun in my c**t..
ropes are borderline free and roof access is completely free. You clearly are not actually going to do it since it would have been easy to gun or no
Impossible to get a gun in murrica if you're visibly deep fried and have a history that shows it.
you can always suicide by police but in my c**t they just taze
just find a bridge, moron
not a 100% suicide and there isnt high bridges here lol
highest is probably like 30meters that aint killing anyone
if you can't have a nice day by falling headfirst on concrete or anything really from 30 up then you are moronic enough to deserve your misery
they make bridges over water here
Water kills you even harder than concrete since not only does the surface tension make it just as hard but you also drown on the off chance you survive the fall.
Thanks for reinforcing what I said
lmao golden gate bridge is 75m high and even that is not 100% death
and neither is a gun. morons like you are known for fricking up killing themselves with one and just horribly mangling thekr face or destroying their frontal lobe leaving them fricked for the rest of their lives.

>Spent the last year doing nothing of worth anyhow
Also all the time throughout hs i had people ask me to hang out or come to a party or a school trip or whatever and i'd just never accept and then i'd go home and play vidya.
School shrink told me i 'm autistic but the autist diagnostician said i'm all good just really depressed.
Rn i have 0 friends 0 romantic interests 0 money and 0 skills and i've played all good vidya.
I'll be starting construction site slave labour and investing 80% of my paycheck into BTC tho.
If it goes well i'm gonna neet for a few years and then kys.
>Shhh, don’t tell anybody this. But listen to podcasts until you autistically analyze human behavior. It takes about ten years to study enough to fake being normal starting from 0. This is cringe knowledge. You can’t share this with anyone.
Don't wanna. I'm just gonna work and save up and then neet with mommy for no rent and then fricking hang myself
>i always had people interested in me and i would just spaz out and isolate
>Refused because i havent been around people for years so i'd spaz
I'm the same way. Every time I've agreed though, often after people twist my arm, I've almost always had a great time and never acted as autistic as I feared. I even met online friends IRL after years of being a practical shut-in and we got on just as well as a voice call like we grew up together. I'm not gonna implore you to change your life but if you get another chance then it's worth giving it a shot. If people want to meet up to begin with then you're probably not nearly as much of a spaz as you're worried about being and it's almost certainly not gonna be nearly as a much of an unpleasant experience as you feel it will. I still have to remind myself of that logically a lot and force myself to go out even when there's copious amounts of evidence that I'll have a good time and my friends enjoy my company.
Why would you want to have a nice day? Don't you know what happens when you die? Don't you know everybody regrets what they've done after they've done it, in their last fleeting seconds of life?
This is true. Frequently survivors that tried, as soon as they jumped were like oh shit shit shit I fricked up bad oh god please let me live oh Jesus, and then WHAM.

Unironically, find a place with a volunteer program and get signed up. Hospital, SPCA, museum, aquarium, planetarium, whatever tickles your fancy. They don't give a shit about what you look like or if you got weird vibes or whatever; if you're breathing, you qualify. It'll get you out of the house and socializing on neutral ground, you'll learn new things and expand your brain, those companies will give you thank you gifts, and it'll be an experience that helps you out of your funk. I started volunteering work at a public aquarium when I was a teenager and it's good for me, its kept me out of a lot of different funks like OPs.
Any excuses not to do this is cope, plain and simple.

it feels like a waste of time, I could be developing skills and/or doing something fulfilling
>it feels like a waste of time
Everything is a waste of time you just dont know it
1. You spend too much time on Ganker (still a form of social media which is unhealthy).
2. You have no other hobbies so you might be burnt out on gaming.
3. A lot of games are just straight up garbage these days but they take twice as long to develop.
4. You’re not eating right/exercising/getting enough sleep. People seem to think these things dont affect their mood but they are proven to cause people to feel incredibly worse.
Just get a good night’s sleep, exercise more often focus on something else than gaming for a while and when you come back it might feel refreshing. Focus on the things you know you need to do but have been putting off for whatever reason. Once you do those things you’ll feel less guilty in your leisurely time, but dont scrap “fun” altogether. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Pursue something you’re passionate about in your free time, a little each day and it adds up.
People who say shit like this were definitely the "weird kid" who couldn't even fit in with the nerds.

The magic is gone is the real answer if youre reading. Some of that magic is gone because people now are not using the internet the same way. Original wow/EQ/hell the internet all the way up to 2005 used to to connect and collaborate. It's now used by people to waste time, try to get famous because of reaction videos, or vent. The internet is not the same and the next gen of kids got older and are using it and thats....how they are using it. At 35 I watched all of it change since we had dial up for my father for work and it really was just forums more than anything. I have been using emulators to conquer demons from my child like past, because I had no access to the information other than other kids at school or reading a giant long gamefaq where some legend of a man typed out a handwritten map with backslashes and lines. You also had more free time when you were younger. It feels like we are supposed to grow out of it but what I found was when I was younger I absolutely loved single player games, then I would never play them, and now going backwards to single player games....feels like going backwards. The only thing I have done with video games I have liked is try to share them with my kids and help them if they need it. My oldest is 6 I helped set up Oblivion on god mode and now shes learning to use the PC and we can do that together. My middle was playing OOT on a 2ds I picked up for a steal. I was able to play Majoras mask for the first time on the 3ds and be near my family while they do their thing and help if needed. Gaming for me has changed into the next decade. I still miss the feeling of grouping up with the same 8-12 people, I had schedules of what I would play and when and on what day and life gets in the way now, a lot. I just find that older games were made with the intent of being fun, not profitable. All media seems to be a product of marketing and nothing else now. That is what hurts.

Leftism gives you nihilism
nihilism gives you celibacy and abortion
celibacy and abortion gives you immigration because others have to fill the void to keep society running
Your lack of purpose makes leftism appealing to you as it tells you socialism will solve all your problems if you can just get rid of 2 min hate redhats, orange man etc
Not having family around you gives you lack of purpose
Both capitalism and leftism want you to not have your family, leave your family, replace you family with immigrants
Your lack of purpose makes you anti social
Anti social traits make you parasocial
Parasocialism is your short answer, and the longer answer is QED above for you.
Because they're hoping to hear something that makes them enjoy them again.
Frick off with this existential crisis over gaming bs, I notice you didn't just leave the gaming board and pick up another hobby btw. No matter what you choose to do, you will still be you and that's the root of the problem.

I agree with everything except the claim that israelites did it.
There's no coordinated conspiracy to make everything shit, it's just the inevitable result of capitalism.
Various people and groups piece-by-piece make things worse and it compounds, the shit snowball only grows larger.
The failure of a quasi-socialist planned economy isn't a failure of capitalism.
These morons don't even know what capitalism is
Nah it’s a conspiracy unironically
Look at how the “totally private business” airlines all operate in lockstep to force wildly unpopular masking, and “totally private business” credit card companies collaborate to ban Eastern erotica.

Well that's not going back. Booting up some rpg and looking under every rock for hidden items or jokes might take away boredom temporarily but will not give the same satisfaction if u would start playing that game ten years ago.
Now to finish up this reddit tier post. When in doubt u can always start browsing /x/. Watch out for malicious spirits though!
You can enjoy the outside without people. In fact, it's the superior experience. What a homosexual
You homies gotta play more games, not only are their a bunch of old games I haven't played there also new ( at least indie AAA is fricked atm) games being released that I'm enjoying
it's called growing up and realizing how shallow and pointless games actually are.
homie just draw
Video games should always be to pass the time until you get to do things you actually want. I only play video games nowadays when I'm waiting for a girl to text me back or something, saves me staring at my phone counting the minutes like a freak.
If they were my ONLY source of enjoyment I would blow my head off, and that's the problem with you homies. Video games weren't made as a substitute for the real things that make us happy as humans, i.e love, making connections and hobbies.
tldr; video games are something to do when you're bored and morons base their whole lives on them and wonder why their miserable
>Video games should always be to pass the time until you get to do things you actually want.
Everything I do is passing time until i get back to doing what I actually want, which is playing video games. This has been the case for me for like 30+ years, i will never understand these threads
I consider that a pretty sad life but whatever floats your boat
COOL NOW FRICK OFF IM NOT EVEN THAT ANON U REPLIED TO KEK
Very few people are at liberty to lead a "rich and fulfilling" life, whatever the frick your standards for that are. Even most normalgays just go to work, come home, get drunk, watch TV and go to bed for 60-80 years and then die. Wow what a great life, glad they didn't waste it playing video games!
some people travel the world with the love of their life and have lots of cute babies
>some people inflict this world full of pointless suffering on innocent lives that never asked to be here
I'm not even a doomer but end of the day nobody asked to be here and life is mostly suffering.
Don't have kids.
Anon plenty of people have loving families, close friends and go on to have good jobs and decent lives. Your life in particular may not be great but unless you live in a third world shithole or have crippling mental illness, claiming existence is mostly suffering is very dramatic. Sometimes people on this site talk about their lives being horrific and its literally just a girl didn't like them back or something lmao. Relax man, go watch a movie with friends or pet a dog, life is pretty good.
Obviously if you're an impoverished schizophrenic don't have kids.

Do you have a goal that you are working towards in real life? If you dont, then its hard to let yourself enjoy playing video games. At least, thats what worked for me
I'm not a NEET and work since 3 years ago but i now feel trapped here and that i will never move on. Since i'm too anxious and didn't really talk that much i don't think i'll ever have the opportunities that regular people have.
>that guy your extended family like cousins and uncles only remember you for when you were an outgoing kid and haven't seen or talked to you in ages
obliterated me in the feels
Videogames suck when that's all your life is
Is this what makes Ganker ? Neglected children with ADHD. People who always required more care but receive even less than a normal healthy child would requirer? I can imagine some of you forgetting to eat because half of the time you just forgot to eat and other because the food was disgusting or outright poisnous.
>Thought about getting good at drawing for most of my youth
>Never did because vidya was always less effort and more pleasure
>About to begin working construction for 10 hours a day with 2 hour long drive to the worksite

Cool
learn to code man
AI will replace low effort coders and the industry is oversaturated either way. Even then i'd still have to work most of the day.
Even then, when would i have the time to learn to code? I'll be working 12h a day mon-fri, then every weekend i'll lose every saturday because i'll have to spend the day visiting my c**t mom.
not sure but i think you can make it work if you care enough.
I don't care about coding whatsoever and i'm terrible at learning. Why do you think is it that i'll be working twelve hours manual labour shifts
adhd medications unironically. get yourself checked out. it'll be a lifehack that will allow you to concentrate. hell, doesn't even matter if you have adhd.
>Ruin your kidneys, heart and get addicted to meth just so that you can compete for minwage against pajeet rashamid no. 3009573646
yea it'll be better than gay blue collar work
don't take adhd meds when working physically for 12 hours. I did that and had to quit because what felt like hard work before now unironically was making me faint. You can't take adhd meds and work physically unless you don't get tired at all.
then he should quit construction and do something that pays worse for a few months while he grinds leetcode with adhd meds.
I was not planning to get on pills because i am not fricking moronic
belive me anon. All of us adhd people DESPISE the idea of taking those meds. I remember too when I gaged at the idea of needing pills to have remotely bit better life but after wasting years of trying to maintain anything in my lfie and nearly dying because of it I swolled bigger pill: I have 2 realistic choices, either I have short but bitter sweet life thanks to pills or I can live longer but be bitter about all those opportunities I missed. If taking the pills means I get to finally make some friends, to get a job that doesn't suck the life out of me and maybe even a kid by a miracle then Ill take it; even if my brain might turn to mush at age of 50.
It might be stupid but maybe that's what it takes to stop being paralyzed so much, stupid people don't think, they do and what I wish is to do something instead of sitting on my ass and on Ganker all day.
I don't have adhd though. I don't even need them.
Glad meth fixed your life though.
For your sake I hope you are correct, but do your research too to make sure.
In hs i shunned away from people so they tried to diagnose me with literally everything so i'm sure i dont have the tism or adhd. I'm just sorta sad most of the time but who is to say that's not because the world is shit
Funny, I did the same all throught the high school, in fact its quite common for people with adhd to be in denial about it. But again, do your own research and I mean proper research, look into symptoms and think of any examples that you can relate to those symptoms; and if there is a pattern then you turn for actual diagnosis; not the other way around because that's how the people get overdiagnosed; they didn't do their own research and just agree to things that psychatrists say are vaguely similiar but in reality are normal, for instance how you forgot lunch one time but it was just one time so its not really adhd
you say that like meth is a bad thing.
I miss meth so fricking much
you can still learn to draw
Couldn't do it when i had infinite time. How am i supposed to do it in-between twelve hour shifts? Do you really think i'll sit down and doodle for an hour or two after hauling ass at a construction site all day? The only reason i'd ever believe that woud be to lie to myself that i'll ever be anything but a slaveworkerprovider.
pulling out a pocket book to doodle on a lunch break was pure bliss while i was working
zero harm to try, anon. if it doesn’t work then it doesn’t work. but if it does, you might have a fun diversion between busy moments.
>pocket book to doodle
any rec?
i bought and liked moleskine pocket books, they really do fit right in the pocket but maybe a bit big if you got small pockets. i don’t know if the price is going up these days, though.
even pocket notepads can be fun and much cheaper to draw on, just make sure the lines on the paper aren’t very dark or else it’ll get in the way of your drawing
And where you put the eraser and the pencil? also what you doodled? because when you're starting i don't think you can really draw anything from your imagination....
i had a pack of silicon pencil erasers that you just cap onto the end of your pencil, and a metal cap that covers the pencil’s lead tip from breaking. you’re right, in that drawing from imagination is something you gotta ease into. at first, i would look at my phone for references.
it was hard and sometimes felt pointless, but the way i saw it, it was better than just browsing Ganker on my breaks, i guess.. eventually you start doodling a little picture you’re somewhat proud of and like looking at, and it makes you want to draw more.
very well, anon v_v
>eventually you start doodling a little picture you’re somewhat proud of and like looking at, and it makes you want to draw more.
Finally a good fricking post
Sounds cool. I have a giant "notedpad for drawing thing(?)" in my home for drawing but everytime i get home from job i juts get into the PC and don't really use it..... I use to draw everyday some months ago but then the depression came again and i just left it. Maybe if i have a book with me everyday i can doodle stuff like when i was a kid and trying to improve on it.
I'm very tsundere about having higher aspirations so i was hoping for a pushback against my doomerism
Not good enough to doodle anything that would warrant being. Cant do people or even basic shapes right. I've given up already anyway. Stuff like that is for talented people, someone has to clean the toilets
You do a hobby because it's enjoyable, not because you have talent for it, you insufferable homosexual. You deserve to rot in your wage cage if you won't take even the smallest baby steps towards some happiness. Frick you, get your shit together.
The only thing I draw well are dragons and I fricking suck at drawing anything else. Just find one thing you like to draw and max out your skill drawing that one thing.
I think game play peaked during the 360/ps3 era. Most new games or sequels are an inferior version of their 360/ps3 era game. Battlefield is a great example, BC2/BF3/BF4 were peak and BF2042 is a mid game that struggles to be BF4.
The game play in most games now is so shit, I'd rather just play some FOTM F2P slop and watch a movie rather than dropping $100 on something i probably wont like.
>I think game play peaked during the 360/ps3 era
prove me wrong homosexual. post 1 game that isnt elden ring, zelda or indie slop.
I think looking back, the 7th gen is the end of an era of innovation that began with the rise of raster 3d rendering tech and networking in the early 1990s. The 7th gen is when we stopped making games that were fun and began to make online "experiences" that monetized every aspect of the game. Budgets ballooned and the risk and innovation got curtailed, leading us to the boring swamp AAA is today.

>Noooo I've been rejected from x,y,z social group therefore this justifies using video games for escapism
He could've exercised, learned a skill, joined a club, or spent time outside doing something useful where you get more of a chance to socialize around more like minded people.
I was the same way until I was 16 and realized I had to get over myself. Got a job, followed other hobbies, took chances and dealt with the consequences etc. Being in a state of inaction does nothing for. So If you're stuck in that cycle, just remember it is always YOUR fault, it's YOUR responsibility to get better even if other people fail you on some level.

but you know what?
by senior year i was a chad myself, stacies loved me and i lifted and played cod and gaylo but secretly what i wanted was to be alone, to return to that primitive basic and ultimately fulfilling lifestyle that I had had previous.
now I've achieved the dream through various means i have enough money to live in total isolation from the world, no work, no family, rare visits from a gf, and I love it.

You're not autistic.
This.
Some people are so fricking self blind they think being socially awkward at some point is autism.
It genuinely makes me mad, I felt like my life fell apart when I had a moment of realization that I've been fricked in the head this whole time and I'll never be able to fix it.
For dopes like those two an "uwu I have autism I'm so quirky" tiktok types to co-opt it to make themselves feel special then have the gall to lecture other people about how to fix their shit, it's so fricking moronic.
>best friend is my supervisor co-worker
>she's a black mom
The ego on her is enormous and she doesn't understand that in current year, being a white guy ain't great and I can't copy her attitude. Great to have on the job though, her title goes to her head even more, so she deals with trouble customers for me.
The dad's second line is 100% correct and the kid's second line is just cringe
The dad's second line would be 100% correct if he didn't add the last part, but instead offered to help him find new hobbies
It's all about points of view. The dad might be right, he should stop a little bit. But at the same time, it's hard for the kid to get motivation if the outside world does not offer him anything more than more shame and disappointments
Sometimes i think people couldn't be this apathetic. But then i read garbage opinions like yours and i ask myself i you're just trolling or just fricked as a human being.
Get a job. Within a few weeks you will agree with the dad.
I already have a job and it doesn't really help that much with wanting to have a nice day.
If you want to have a nice day you are genuinely mentally ill and need to be on suicide watch please call a hotline now
why? explain why killing yourself is a bad thing, because the big man in the sky said so? because homosexuals on twitter say so? there is literally no reason why living or dying is good or bad, you dictate what is good or bad for you
>the big man in the sky
You are mentally still 14, YouTube atheism in 2006 is not in vogue anymore but you're still living like it is, maybe suicide IS the correct option for you after all
>incapable of seeing the 2 extremes of the argument being made as using pejorative terms for both stated parties.
you are moronic, also you didn't explain, because you can't
There's nothing extreme here, you're just immature. Grow up. Even this post is indicative of the mid-00's YouTube atheist debatebro attitude, you're trying to score imaginary points and beat me in a debate.
There is no debate. There is no victory for you. You've failed to actualize as a person. Your metamorphosis is incomplete. You hide in your cocoon, afraid to come out and stretch your wings.
you still didn't explain, so I take you are a room temperature moron that think everyone is an atheist for some reason. BTW you can't use His name in vain, its the most basic shit. So frick off moron
>still trying to turn it into a debate
>calling people moronic

A child with no emotional control, acting defiant when faced with an adult. I will disengage. You may seethe and cope at your leisure.

Very true
>Waaaah it's society's fault! Why should I have to struggle to make things better for myself? I got rejected by *insert anyone* it's over!
When you start questioning stuff you end up like every philosopher who ever lived and got to the same conclusion, there is no reason.
What is the objective of life? have a family? continue the lineage? live a happy life? acquire many possessions? nobody knows
8 billion people, zillions of stars, we all all just a spec of dust in the end.
If things don't bring happiness for you anymore try new things is usually what people say, but those new things are worse than what you had before.
I don't know what the endgame is, nobody knows.
Just live and keep on living

MY SHRIMPINA
Modern games are soulless corporate slop made by people who are anti-gamers.
The reason you don't enjoy them is because they do the opposite of engendering joy.
I feel like 90% of the posts here are from chat GPT for some reason
AI does make a lot of posts on Ganker, many have noticed
Bog-standard depression
Or just shit games
The idea that anything that isn't consuming narcotics could cause serotonin syndrome is moronic, and serotonin syndrome symptoms are horrible and deadly not mild depression
And no, porn and fast food don't "deplete" or downregulate dopamine either

What are women looking for exactly during their "bad boy phase"?
anything their parents don't approve of. it's their greatest form of rebellion.
They want to get pregnant with a child and tie down the bad boy so he stops fricking a dozen women a week and just picks her. Except that doesn't work, it has never worked, it will never work. So instead she just ends up a worthless single mom.

I have walked this earth alone and experience s the dark and light that is within this world, you homosexuals have always been in the light while ive been in the darkness but you know what im not fricking mad about it because one day my strength will be recogniaed and when it all comes falling down i will become the monster that i really am and you low level npcs will just be more xp for me. Enjoy sex with your ugly 3dpd std ridden prostitute wife, that will likely be the last modicum of joy you will experience in this fricked up world...
>make thread about videogames

alright then
i’m convinced the mods let this one slide so anons can get some encouragement to frick off eventually or something
it's just a containment thread for dumb mopy Black folk
just like half of the twitter ones
I just realized myself that it is because my mind is craving for something else that games just don't provide so just trying to squeeze games and hoping that they would eventually make me happy just isn't how it works.
I didn't stop gaming, but i started to just do more other things and instead just play less and every now and then i run into a game again that just feels like something special and gives me that spark to keep me engaged
>don't feel sorry for yourself
Immediately begins feeling sorry for himself. Do meme people really? Get a fricking job and/or some responsibilities. Wtf are you "escaping" from anyway?? Pathetic homosexuals I have been trapped with, forever. Frick me

>Is there a reason why I don't find games fun anymore vee?
You're probably getting older and haven't noticed.
And of course, getting older is no excuse, just realize that your experiences can be richer if you stop being a homosexual and get off your ass and go find stimulating things to do instead of posting on social networks.
Well then, old games are fricking awful in modern technology.
because you've been playing them for 20 years
>have fun playing games
>but every time I load one up there's an argument I can try and win on the other monitor on Ganker or discord.
because you got older and realized you've wasted your life and the skills you've developed playing games mean nothing and are going to get you nowhere in life
This post would've been a lot more hurtful if it wasn't for the tranime
wasn't meant to be hurtful, just the truth
Yeah, yeah. Go play gaysona or whatever.
Loser
Yeah, yeah. Go play forehead clicker or whatever.
Loser
Truth is that they would've wasted their time on something else equally unimportant.
People today all have an unrealistic expectation they're destined for greatness despite our population being larger than ever and only a handful of people ever having a significant impact in the world through history.
You could spend your entire life focusing on winning the rat race and barely come away with a million dollars which won't be able to buy you anything worth wasting your life over.
A lambo or boat isn't worth slaving in the office doing 70 hour weeks for 25 years.
You could argue that having a wife and kid is a form of success but i've seen tons of people who seemed like chads who had it all. Got divorced and lost everything and now they have the most totally fricked up lives of all.
Uncle got divorced after retirement. Lost the house, the kids, the dogs, the cars and everyone's respect. Normalgays can't be trusted at all.
I don't feel like it's a waste, but that's because in pursuit of video games I learned other small things along the way. There are transferable soft skills if you've practiced them.
Like having to deal with folders and computer software to get some games to work, a lot of people overlook it but boomers are too inept and zoomers grew up using apps without having to deal with the nitty-gritty of it.
I had a massive vocabulary from reading and playing video games.
I remember at like 13 I used the word "neophyte" and my teacher said I didnt know what that meant, and when I defined it he backed down.
I learned it from world of warcraft lmao
This, I have a job in an office with a bunch of oldies and women and Ive basically become unfireable now because I’m literally just that good with bypassing shit in the shitty system we use and coming up with workarounds to slow ass computers. It’s braindead easy and I don’t have to do anything else because they want me focused on making sure everyone else can do their jobs for the day. Sure I’d rather be home, but I quite literally sleep on the job and don’t get reprimanded and I finish my work so fast that once the supervisors leave I can just do whatever I want until it’s quitting time. Free money, and I keep myself sane by coming home and doing my hobbies.

help me Ganker, I've developed a fatal dependency to getting into the army, and if I get disqualified I'm splattering my brains out onto the wall; having a criminal charge and ~3 disqualify worthy medical conditions, this is probably about as good an idea as leaded gasoline, but I don't care, devoting myself to exercising and meeting standards was literally life changing, and I want to feel like fricking superman again, I want the high that comes with being in control of your life, and I'm tired of switching between being blackpilled as frick and feeling like I could skullfrick somebody into a paste.
>tfw I'm a shell of a man unless I'm batshit fricking manic and my heart hurts
I've had conversations with friends that were so sick and bored with videogames, but they also refused to play anything not popular or older than 3 years
The irony here is that when I tell people on Ganker that I enjoy games like Wuthering Waves they start seething. The reality is (You) reading this are broken inside. Unlike you I still enjoy video games and can find joy out of the little things in life while (You) can only be angry at my joy.
How can you claim the games are not fun when you're spending the dopamine or whatever elsewhere. Imagine playing vidya all day n night and then going to the gym. Cmon now guys..
