Well, there aren't that many cutscenes in hollow knight. Its gameplay might be simpler than those of other metroidvanias, but it doesn't really stop you from exploring as you see fit. Not my favorite in the genre, but it's decently open, despite its simplicity.
It's interesting to see people like you downplay things to anonymously fit in on Ganker when Hollow Knight is significantly harder than most metroidvanias, and the average metroidvania is about on par with or even more simple than Hollow Knight.
How can anyone hate Gen X? Thry did nothing wrong and despite their small size they still have more influence in society and politics than Millennials ever will, they make more money even.
Gen X are the generation that made all the good games, notice the moment that millennials get into the workforce the quality of games dipped tenfold. Gen X are the ones that made the gaming golden age but millennials are the morons that destroyed it.
I was told this in 2016 when the deplatforming began. The cultural opposition at the time thought because Trump won the election that it meant things were turning around and that the "tumblr" culture was on its last legs or in the beginning of decline.
Most rightists in general are unable to take a realist look at situations, and when they do they assume somehow things magically will be restored if some hero on a white horse will come in out of nowhere and magically fix everything.
The truth is that something entirely new is going to be needed, but without high iq human capital or highly creative people, it can never never manifest to begin with. Just look at how quickly the counterculture from 2014 to 2017 waned after censorship. Its now almost gone from the mainstream.
I literally saw a zeitgeist zealot gloat that deplatforming and censorship works.
You yourself are engaging in the identity politics that marks this age's zeitgeist, with the black and white view that "all zoomers are based, and all millennials are pozzed." The unfortunate truth is that the millennials that believe wholeheartedly in the zeitgeist are the ones with cultural, economic, and social power, while the ones that reject it are largely on the margins.
With zoomers, them accepting the woke/sjw/radlib dogmas even more than millennials was due to how the internet ecosystem was after 2017. There is a reason why early zoomers seem to have more heterodox among them than late zoomers.
and I agree with your take. Unfortunately, the millennials with the "successor ideology" as their religion were all the ones with clout and they vehemently guarded the gates of culture.
I dunno I get shit all the time for something I never had a hand in like dlc or microtransactions but somehow it's my fault for something I wasn't even there to begin with but as soon as you call them a wiener sucking homosexual who worships shitty holywood corporate culture they cry like sissies and mentally break down screaming no u's
Yes? Millennials would be like kids playing those games. I was like 10 when Quake released and I played it then on PC and the N64. It wouldn't have been retro to us. Not sure what you guys define as millennial but I think you guys are confused with older Gen Y pushing to their late 20s now.
Millennials are the ones who shaped the internet before zooms arrived.
Sorta. A lot of the 1337 speak and meme concepts were already there as early as the 80s. Millennials would have continued that on and shaped sites like New Grounds, Myspace, YouTube, etc.
All those games on the left literally all zoomers (gen z) games, kid. Millenials are Starcraft, Diablo, Age of Empires 2 and CS. Basically the gods of gaming.
Also 50+ year old gen xers really still play anything?
Wow, that image is incredibly wrong. When it was made I'd have been right on the verge of Gen Z/Gen Y but I am and have been a lost closer to Gen X and some of the attitudes from boomers.
Not a thing has changed over the last 8 years except me being even more tired.
You moron, you are examining the "generational attitude" shit too closely. This is all bullshit marketing speak. It's about selling to as many people as possible. You shouldn't be seeing yourself in any of this shit unless you are literally the prototypical brainless consumer that they would prefer.
You young ones don't realize how much good shit you've missed. The 2000s were, in a lot of ways, the golden days. Before the Internet became centralized and controlled by the big corpos, before videogames devolved into endless live services where no fun is allowed, when creativity was the name of the game and the word "cringe" didn't exist.
I fricking miss those days.
>That feeling when I am silent generation
Can you folks believe Baby Boomers and Gen X will lead the future? They don't even know what it means to have fought in the World War, or to have lived through the Great Depression. They have no clue of how thorny things can get, they only know good times and can't think for the future. I am sorry for the future generations, they are fricked.
There are people who studied humanity and reassured themselves by saying that humanity won't fall to such pits anymore, many works expanded on the futility of war saying that they can feel the pain yet being not there
Regardless they feel pain despite being not responsible to the fall and do so because they believed in humanity, there are young ones that wants to go to war to punish russians but they won't go as far as they believe
>Yu-Gi-Oh, Machinima, Newgrounds, Peanut Butter Jelly Time, N64 games, The Matrix Adventure Quest >Zoomer
Literally half of this shit is poached from Millennials. The only way you engaged with this stuff when it was new was if you were doing it when you were 2-6 years old.
Not 'barely'. None of it is Zoomer. Zoomers were too young to appreciate any of this shit when it came out, they just didn't have anything good during adolescence so they just enjoyed Millennial media instead.
Don't let these homosexuals try to claim your birthright, millennials.
Dumb history revisionist. Almost everything here came out post-2000 when Zoomers were in their childhood. This means their childhood and identity was partially formulated off of this. Your birthright is being a bunch of homosexuals who march for the LGBTQ.
As I said, there was some diversity among millennials. The ones that agreed with the "successor ideology" had basically a total victory by the end of the 2010's, while the millennials that still disagreed with it went off to the chans, kiwifarms (which got deplatformed very recently), or just got off the internet for the most part.
I guess at the youngest they could be around 28 or so years old nowadays and have enjoyed some of these things as kids. I was like 14 years old when Linkin Park came out with Hybrid Theory, probably the age group most people would associate with that type of music (angsty preteens/teens). But I'm sure some 6 year old also enjoyed it at the time in the same way when I was 6 years old I listened to some 70s-80s music my parents enjoyed (they were also young when they had kids so it wasn't that far away from their generational/childhood music).
the youngest ones are in their late 20s, at that point all of them should already have a house and a proper job

Why are you being such a gatekeeping homosexual? Would you prefer that the remaining minority of zoombers (like me) are just like the rest of the ebonic-fluent tiktok fortnite worshipping ilk?
I'm 23 and when I was around 5 or 6 years old, I was playing games on a laptop running fricking Windows 98. Witnessing fricking everything declining in quality over the past 10+ years has been fricking demoralising.
I'm not being a gatekeeper, they're free to enjoy it as much as they want, I'm just saying none of this media can be claimed as "Zoomer" because none of it had their age group in its demographic. The only one you could really argue are Foster's Home and some of the longer-running shows, but when they debuted they were aimed at millennials.
Ganker is just full of confrontational types, and contrarians for the sake of contrarianism. Pay him no mind.
For myself, my first console was the NES, and I pretty much kept up with gaming until the HD generation, of which I only got the Wii, DS, and PSP for that generation. After that I mostly was a retro gamer.
I'm 23 and my first console was the ps2. Millennials are weird because they only do this age analysis shit to gen z. No one care if someone who is 32 says super metroid if apart of their childhood, but aparently i'm too young for PS2 games?
Why are zoomers the most insufferable people to be around? At least genxers and millennials could get along but zoomers have to feel superior to everyone else when they have not accomplished a thing in life and tear down old stuff that they'll never understand at all. Maybe it's BLM or 1 second attention spans that made them this way.
>Maybe it's BLM or 1 second attention spans that made them this way >The most average age for people who uses sites like twitter and reddit (which vehemently supports BLM and have short attention spans) are white millennial chicks in their mid 20's to early 30's

Millennials hated the internet when it was a wild west
the internet would not have existed if people like me and the friends ive made there werent populating it, it was the wild west because only smarter people were tech savvy enough to get in, now every moronic zoomer or normie with a phone has access to everything, it was better because it was smaller and not ran by corporations
Millenials were taught that technology is the way, that it will save us from all problems, so that's what we looked forward to. The social aspect was not part of the conversation, because everyone assumed that we figured everything out already.
Zoomers grew up in a completely different climate, where social tensions ran high at all times and old media was seen as not simply old, but poisonous. This is the critical flaw in modern thinking - people look at the past as something dangerous, something to avoid. So they can't learn from it.
Both were wrong, you idiot. Technology did not save us, it made things worse. And the same will happen with this social accelerationism zoomers are trying to achieve.

>technology makes us dumber.
ALL technology makes us dumber. Do you think a farmers in the 1800s knew how to take down an elephant without the use of firearms? Or where the best berries and nuts can be found in thr wild? Or how to make their own arrowheads and other weapons from obsidian? Or mix their own pigments for wall art? The Agricultural Revolution took us out of our hunter-gatherer phase and helped set us on our current path... but in the process, everything we learned about life as hunter-gatherers was lost. Does that mean we're "dumber" than our hunter-gatherer ancestors?
Speaking of which, define "dumber". I mean, I know what it means in a vacuum (eg "less smarter"), but how would you define it in the context of technology?
All technology allows us to spend less mental energies on certain tasks, ideas, knowledge, and frees them up to be spent on other things. If you are suggesting that modern technology is ensuring that more energy is spent on random gossip videos or illicit politics, etc, understand that that is something that has been a constant throughout the history of humanity. The Epic of Gilgamesh, for example, is still possible to be enjoyed today, because the human values from 5000ish years ago are the same as today, and those same values are in play within the technology that is "making us dumber".

Then be more specific. If someone makes a blanket statement like "technology has made things worse" only to then be like "I don't mean all technology", that's just being flat out moronic for being vague, and it's no one's fault but the person making those statements if people misinterpret it.
A gentleman says what he means, and means what he says.
Of course then the issue becomes "OK, WHAT technology is OK, and what technology ruined us?"... but no matter what is chosen, I can guarantee that the line separating the two is arbitrary as frick. Like, maybe the line is between pre- and post-Industrial Revolution, but the motivations behind it is similar to the Agricultural Revolution, and thus if the Industrial Revolution was evil, so was the Agricultural Revolution.
The best solution to technology isn't to eliminate it out of fear, because elimination never destroys it but simply kicks the can down the road. Roman tech, for example, returned to us, despite being "lost". Instead, humanity needs to learn how to not let it control us, and the only way to do that is to that is to step through the door of technology.

There's no need to be more specific. If you can't grasp the difference than you're moronic. I'm not the guy but if we're talking about digital technology than this is a kind of tech that was more revolutionary and culturally changing than railroad, airplane and radio. At least with the latter tech, kids could still get educated and develop skills unhindered. With digital technology learning itself is directly affected. Not even television can compare. For this reason children's performance in school is dropping. It is important that people abstain from this tech, but its also impossible to do so. The human mind was not meant to handle all of these distractions. And people do not "spend their time on other things", they just fiddle on their phones and computers all day. If this were so true, then zoomers would be producing mozart-tier, games and films by now. Clearly they are not.

I just read the Y axis as a percentage, holy shit.
Gen Z is entering into their mid 20s. They’re not on the extreme youth anymore. I don’t know what the gen after Z is called but gen Z is now at that point where they’ll start experiencing nostalgia of their own hard and we’ll see a new influx of video essays about games from the 2010s like we have even for 2000s era games.
Millennials projecting as always.
Daily reminder that capeshit target audience is your millennial generation instead of zoomer or gen alpha kek.
While in reality, zoomers are enjoying old/classic media, hence why both film and games industries are having a hard time making a product that panders to zoomer specifically.
Why are you still sticking to the "my generation is special unlike yours" stick like a woman on her social media in a website filled with socially inept men?
Yep. Millennials never bothered to explore anything beyond what was on TV or in their magazines, or what was popular on the playground. They'll ignore films like Casablanca and Lawrence of Arabia, but then call zoomers uncultured for not watching some gay shit like Seinfeld.
it's because of it being shoved down our throat .
we hate those bald frick telling that what you like is shit because they played bugzy .
still like old stuff though
I’m in my mid 20s (idk if that counts as zoomer) and I almost exclusively consume old media. I have friends younger than me who do the same. Liking old media is not special or rare, which you’d realize if you stopped sucking yourself off long enough to have a conversation with normal people.
As a millenial I'm looking forward to generation alpha completely mindbreaking gen z once they're out of the spotlight. Gen alpha is looking like the most braindead generation yet, but somehow look less annoying than gen z.
Gen Alpha will be even worse than zoomers. Zoomers pretty much just took after the worst millennials. Now there are no nexuses for them to deviate from the zeitgeist in the Western world. Local culture is dead. Pic-related. A counter culture is needed, but without high quality and creative human capital and with an extremely vigilant force of heretic hunters, it would never even get off the ground.
I mean to say with an extremely vigilant force of heretic hunters going against it from the very start. You see this with how troons pretty much have the entire internet under their thumb. Look at how they got kiwifarms deplatformed with their help of the state's propaganda corps.
This. All movie games are bad, regardless of generation. Whether it's Persona, Xenoblade, Bloodborne, Animal Crossing, or any other """""game""""" that ever dares to steer from what a game should be: a challenging test of one's puzzle solving skills, or ability to survive a firefight, or even something as simple as platforming.

When did millennials ever claim that? Younger Millennials were being hazed by older Millennials, and Gen X for years simply for existing. Then Zoomers come along, and act like they're hot shit despite being the cancer with their shitty battle royales, streamer e-celebs, social media obsession. Do you know when old game recommendation threads stopped? When millennials for the most part outgrew Ganker, and Zoomers took their place. Millennials actually had an interest in Gen X games, and were not only interested in movie games like you claim. At least not on Ganker.
>Do you know when old game recommendation threads stopped? When millennials for the most part outgrew Ganker,
Or maybe when retro games got their own board with /vr/.
Wrong Black, /vr/ didn't kill old game discussion on Ganker until years later. It contained most of the discussion, but there were still recommendation threads on here. Until millennials left the place that is.
Sorry millenial bro but it's your turn to be the unwanted middle child of society now.
Just wait it out and soon you'll see lil zoom posting about the next batch of 18-24 year olds who are definitely ruining everything for everyone for all time.
This happens every generation. Literal baby boobers and silent gen hippies were hating on their parents. Then baby boomers hated Gen X while Gen X rebelled with punk rock and metal, and they did the same to millennials and vice versa. Different age groups always attack each other.
I find it wierd that Ganker of all places has this generational divide when everyone who browsed here since 2005 are social outcasts with no place in the hierarchy outside this site.
Zoomers are still young enough to be in the confident rebellious stage where they can safely think, "Well I won't turn out like that poor guy" "I won't repeat those mistakes" "We can do it better than they did". Give it a decade or two, they'll all see.
>Well I won't turn out like that poor guy" "I won't repeat those mistakes" "We can do it better than they did" >Give it a decade or two, they'll all see
A decade or two, and I'll be scavenging ruins, raiding bunkers, and showing kids actual dead bodies.

The only way there will be a collapse is if nuclear war happens and if that happens everyone will be dead from radiation poisoning you LARPer.
Secondly, even in a Mad Max style world, you would likely end up killed or enslaved by a warlord as opposed to just being a lone bandit that gets to do bandit things with impunity.
You are an absolute idiot It would frick soil for a very long time, and at the very least (assuming only one or two cities were destroyed), cause a strong economic recession. Maybe things would be unaffected if the bombs dropped outside of the cities though.

they're not even good looking figures or stuff you build yourself. I have no idea why people buy those shitty funko pops. Even some shitty kid toy figurine would be better
This is all made up nonsense. Zoomers are Millennials on steroids. Gen X are even more political than Boomers. Every generation is more obnoxious than the last.
Nah, you're a lying homosexual. Zoomers are Millennials brought up with an even larger technological presence in their life. While social media was a side thing for Millennials and Gen X it is the main reason for existence for Zoomers. Gen X are a bunch of homosexual political morons, and millennials were even more gay and more political. Boomers are unironically more spiritual than every generation that came after them, but their naivety and attachment to the old ways made them destroy society in the process. They did not think of the world they would leave behind for future generations. Basically every generation after the silent generation lacks responsibility, and is worse than the last.
I get it. You're angry. You have a mirror pointed at you and you don't like what you see. Maybe instead of lashing out at the one holding it you should take a good long look at yourself.
Nice dismissal of an entire post, you know I'm right. Dumb gay thinks any generation post WWII is worth a shit, frick off.

Some people can't cope with the reality of the greatest generation actually being the greatest generation. It's a tough pill to swallow when they have an inferiority complex
Millennial gamers lived grew up in the greatest era in gaming.
Every game we played was made by boomers that didn't grow up playing games. They were experimental, th ley were unique, and they had soul. The internet was a new technology that supplemented your social life instead of trying to replace it. Games were rapidly advancing in technology and so different from one to the next, genres were emerging. The future of games looked so bright. We could all imagine the possibility of the future.
Then the future came and creative roles trickled down to gen x. Now I can't imagine millenials will do anything better when they dominate leadership positions.
We have the same problem the music and film industries had.
Not only are those childhood dreams dead, the children of today don't even dream. I truly pity gen z, they will never know what they didn't have. But then again, we only had it for a blink of an eye
The boomers are literally the hippy generation. They poured a tank full of gas into the move away from personal responsibility with no fault divorce (the biggest mistake that we ever made and the main cause of our modern problems), expansive welfare programs, this obsession with victim narratives, etc.
Boomers barely were able to start voting when those were put into law. Keep in mind the voting age was originally 21, and the boomers start in 1946. Most of those laws pass in the 1960's. Hippies were largely a small part of the silent generation and early boomers.
They were made to be a lot bigger than they actually were because a lot of former hippies later ended up going into teaching, entertainment, and media, and hence could shape perception.
I doubt you are at least 75 years old.
When did you first get into video games? What are your favorite game consoles and games overall?
Is 1995 millennial or Z? It's always on the cusp and half the sources say one, half the other. I guess I personally resonate more with later millennials because I started school a year early. I have the same problem with astrology (inb4 >astrology), I'm in between Aries and Taurus. Same birthday as Hitler btw
People born in the mid 90s depends on the person. If you had older siblings or were born in a third world country that had delays in technology, it's possible you got to experience all the things a true millenial experienced like Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, SNES, etc.
I'm just glad Ganker can finally tell the difference between genx and boomers. As a genxer I'm just glad to be acknowledged at all.
I thought everybody forgot we existed.
Millennials during the 2010s would be in their 20's~ early 30's. The younger developers might have been apart of that group but those in charge were definitely managers or execs at the 40~50 year old groups who came in after the sixth console generation.
which is exactly why they're most pathetic
go have a nice day for real instead of wasting people's time just a bunch of attention whoring mentally ill morons
>attention whoring
But they don't want the attention, you just fail to ignore them and leave their spaces.
If you keep going to them it's not their fault, you know.
Look at this graph. You would have to be a total brainlet to think that they did not win. Just the fact that troons are the unquestioned overlords of the internet should be able to show their victory alone.
The only decent people i respect are those from the 80's, 90's and very few forward, those of the 2000's and forward became obsessed with pleasure and ertaintaiment without hard work and meaningful life lessons to balance it out
Future generation Will not provide anything meaningful as they will rewrite and deconstruct the past to make themselves seen as gods
It is so ubiquitous now that the only ones left calling it "woke" are the remnants of the short lived mid-2010's counterculture and right leaning Gen X and boomers. A new term is probably needed to describe the state religion of the Western world.
Zoomers are going to have the lowest birth rates in all humanity. It's so obvious. They'll even claim this as a point of superiority, that's how you know the white race will end with them, they can't even stop themselves from Black personizing their hair and wearing those moronic short shorts.
See what I mean? They can't help themselves from taking a criticism and making it their whole personality. That's why all those SoundCloud rappers lean into the moronic face tattoos, the only way they can culturally identify is by being the most obnoxious version of whatever some homosexual called them when they were sixteen
I brag about not breeding because this fricking world is shit and dystopian
there's nothing worth living for I only sit by idle playing video games and watching youtube videos because I want to
That's what happens when people base their whole their life on the internet world and not the real one, the net to me was just a way to forever preserve and honour all the good past things but now it's the opposite because they all became so easily seen and controlled info. that they can be changed, deleted and rewrited with just a quick edit, all past history will be eventually filtered out because there is too much amount of new info. which quality is just as MGS2 predicted
>meanwhile, zoomers discussing the game >"Guys, what skins are you wearing? I want to get the latest MARVEL CAPTAIN AMERICA one but I need a few more weeks to grind the battle pass haha"
Millennials likely need to be spit into two generations, 80s born and 90s or later born. The difference between those who grew up before social media and those after is staggering, to say the least. First Cohort Millennials are vastly different from those who came later, zoomers etc.
Before you kids were even born the boomers where complaining about the gen x and their "political correctness gone mad" bullshit. It wasn't called "woke" but gen x had the same goddamn shit. Just the transing the kids stuff was missing is all.
No. The wife made a post on social media chewing out her husband and announcing over it that he will divorce him. There is no indication this is a stepdaughter, and the husband is addressed with an east asian name.
Actually, even as an old First Corhort Millennial I remember the "first rising" of political correctness in the 90s. Go watch a movie called "PCU" for instance that lampoons the whole thing, about an "animal house + GenX slacker" outcast "not a frat" that needed to raise money to avoid getting expelled, so they had to get all the people on the most whiny campus in the country to stop protesting each over over inane shit and come to their party.
The difference is that back then social media as we know it didn't exist so outside of university and other insular communities the most extreme examples didn't have people saying that everyone needs to take them seriously because they had followers on twitter or something, or the ability to dig up something "problematic". This was also true as the religious right was resurgent and trying to ban vidya - this was the era of video game violence ruining the children etc.
You could call someone a homosexual to their face and it wouldn't get around, so no one could post in public "Look what this homophobe said!" Also, no constant surveillance via actual government surveillance and peoples little phone camera.
Really, I think millenials tie for woke too. I mean, didn’t the trans movement florish with that generation? Usually, from my experience, zoomers really just don’t care if somebody is trans or not for example, while mostly millenials were the ones putting them on a pedestal. But this is also the flaws of defining a whole generation of people under a single term. I am one of the early zoomers, as I am 20. And I am not like a lot of zoomers. For example, I didn’t really care for shooter games and I don’t like Tiktok.
You are correct that there are a lot of millennials that believe the present zeitgeist and that it was largely millennial driven. It was millennials that deplatformed non-woke/sjw/radlib millennials.
The only difference is that there is probably less millennials that think the present zeitgeist is bs than zoomers, but this is largely only due to the fact that there were a lot more millennials that grew up with an open internet than zoomers did (particularly late zoomers).
If your ideas formulated on the internet after 2016, you largely accept the the woke/sjw/radlib premises and ideas, and the very few dissident spaces left that do not have those values have both unintelligent literal nazis and glowies trying to get the former to do bad things so they get more funding.
>If your ideas formulated on the internet after 2016, you largely accept the the woke/sjw/radlib premises and ideas
I don't know. I just saw a video the other day of a teacher getting angry with her young class because they refused to use the term "minor attracted person" or to treat pedos with anything other than contempt.
Back in 2016, /misc/ had the meme that zoomers were "Generation Zyklon" due to their edgy humor and openness to radical right ideas. Particularly videos were shared of students trolling their teachers like pretending to be in solidarity for supporting Trump just for the reaction of having their teacher meltdown.
The meme did not age well when you look at Gen Z as a whole, and how the tumblr cultural norms simply accelerated over the past six years with no speed bumps.
The fact she had resistance to her shitty ideas is not a testament to the fortitude of her students to reject bs, but rather her sloppy ability to sell an idea. Unironically, she is like a conservative authority figure that tried to sell their ideas on the basis of "tradition" or "because I said so". She automatically assumed her idea would be accepted without the lubricants of propaganda and social pressure.
>the meme did not age well when you look at Gen Z as a whole, and how the tumblr cultural norms simply accelerated over the past six years with no speed bumps
Because the power has been completely taken away from everyone. Back then you could grandstand about voting for donald trump and just get a lot of shit for it. You're gonna get thrown out for just disagreeing on trannies with someone now. No punches are being pulled anymore. All you can do now is turn off your computer and just talk in meatspace now.

I always feared Zoomers and their "edginess" would be abandoned as they reach their 20s, and in turn would view their edgy politically incorrect formative years as being "young and stupid", and thus being a "progressive leftist adult" would be the thing they're supposed to aspire to as they mature. It's almost clown-world development in that your teenage years of being dumb and liberal and the adult years where you become more practical and conservative are switched around for zoomers.

That's barely it at all considering that younger zoomers did not even have that (a politically incorrect phase that eschewed the tumblr zeitgeist). It only happened because at one point a counterculture was starting to develop or was here for a few years and that was only due to the internet not having been "sanitized" yet. Notice how late zoomers are even more dogmatic than the early zoomers?
Also, switching politics as you get older is a meme and a cope that was invented by conservatives. It certainly did not happen with millennials.

I was thinking more the far east.
I have no particular illusions about east euros.
I feel like these generation grouping make little sense these days outside of being bait for these threads. XYZ+ seem to bleed together like you would expect from people all consuming basically the same media.
So what if I was alive before 2008 and lived in a world before mass social media and smart phones the people my age are hooked as hard as anyone else.
Its only some of the older people where you see the real difference in attitudes. The scale of what formed a distinct generation like that is just different.
That is a good point. The internet has blended culture more than ever. Boomers are the ones who tend to not use the internet much, so that would explain how it didn’t apply with them. But the younger generations are more exposed to other generations. We know about the same video games overall, and we experience new video games around the same time. It is similar to how culture has been more similar between countries.
Just compare how threads used to be then (pre-2016) and now, specifically each words were and are used to start a thread
Also compare all the popular actors people looked up to in the 80-90's to modern popular 2010+'s e-celebs modern people looks at
That's because people liked them for their interpretations in movies than what really are, rich actors that are not dicks or not betrayed their form views are quite rare
Actors and actresses, particularly those involved with hollywood, were never well adjusted people even going back to 50+ years ago. They just came across as such because they had agents that manged their public appearance. Social media was just an unmasking.
Rage 2 was literally Nu-Doom's shooting and movement mechanics shoved into the Mad Max game, both of which are basically a reskinned Just Cause.
...ah okay maybe that isn't really a good thing
>boomers: snes, ps1, n64, xp classics >millenial: gamecube and PS2 shovelware and brown and bloom 360 shooters >zoomers: kino ps4 remakes and reboots that live up to the boomer classics
PS2 and Wii were the greatest consoles because you could emulate pretty much everything, even watch all the kinds of films
Sad new generations are taught to despise hacking (also because the scene became filled with cancer) and support companies that only sees you as money+1 boost
The Wii (along with the DS and PSP), was the last vestige of how gaming was prior to the seventh generation. Their libraries were still dominated by Japanese software and DLC was a limited thing on them.
I am a millennial, and my first console was the NES and I was basically still heavily glued into games until the 2010's, after which I basically got heavily into retro video games.
>boomers: sportsball, chess, actual social lives and sex (the privileged fricks) >millenial: N64 bullshit, Sega, arcade games >zoomers: gamecube, PS2 shovelware, brown and bloom 360 shooters, kino ps4 remakes and reboots that live up to the boomer classics
Alpha women will be even worse than zoomer women. Zoomer women are even worse than zoomer men. Do the math. Expect further consolidation among them, and endless shit tests for not going along with whatever dogmas are in vogue during the 2030s.

Zoomers got all of their ideas from the millennials that shouted the loudest on social media and ended up becoming their jannies. There is some diversity among millennials to a notable degree, even though the plurality of them online are theocrats for the "successor ideology". With Gen Z, particularly the late ones, all they have ever known is the "successor ideology".
Its not seen at all as weird or peculiar because it has been with them their whole lives, and opposition to it has now mostly been mostly relegated to old people and unbalanced dissidents.
genxers and millennials never fought this bad online. Gen wars were stupid af and people who participate in them weren't from the same online community or quickly learned that it wasn't worth the time. We knew we were just social outcasts with the same interests and appreciate any title without having a label.
because gen Z are lame. they chose to idolize their parents and rebel against their older brother like a little worm who punches his own arm and then says you did it to them.
Gen Y will always be the gamer generation. We saw everything, the good and the bad, the highs and the lows, the evolution and stagnation. Gen X got in too early to fully appreciate it and at best got stuck playing arcade games, and Gen Z missed out entirely and spent 8 years playing GTA V and Fortnite. They know this and it makes them mad, so always remind them of this whenever you get a chance.
I'm a millennial. I play games I find enjoyable, whether that be your definition of 'movie games' or gameplay-focused ones like Bayonetta, DMC, Elden Ring, Doom Eternal, whatever.
I don't worry about what some homosexuals on a mongolian basket weaving site are going to say about my taste in video games, I just play what gives my brain the feel-good chemical.
Walling yourself off from entire genres of games on some moronic principle is some of the dumbest shit I've ever heard of and I hope you have a nice day.
I'm just a 27 year old doomllennial who had fond memories playing gamecube, gameboy advance, ps2, and N64 titles. I haven't played a new video game since 2015 and only stick to older games. Never heard of the shit on the left except DS which I have never played but will try. The games on the right are what you guys were playing in your teens I assume. The things that I got into in my teens were L4D, Terraria, TF2, Papers Please, and Hotline Miami idk why nu Saints Row TLOU2 or Life is Strange is doing there.
>hates it when a game stops holding his hand and calls it a "bad UX"
yeah i fricking hate those gays. that's most of you btw, judging by every fighting game thread.
every soulless corporate game that came out for the past 5 years were marketed towards teens and young adults, and they will be praised by zoomers in 10 years for the nostalgia
Putting Rage 2 with those other shitty games is unfair. It's not the best game ever, but it also has gameplay above all, and it's very light on SJW stuff, I don't remember anything other than female bandits.
Reminder generational labels are completely arbitrary and a grift by israelites to create artificial division and if you fall for it you might have developmental issues i.e you're a tribalist moron
Take careful example of this ape , he is unable to comprehend the statement, so he grasps at straws to find a way to fit me into a label, this would work , if i too was a moronic ape who believed this grift.
>Take careful example of this ape , he is unable to comprehend the statement, so he grasps at straws to find a way to fit me into a label, this would work , if i too was a moronic ape who believed this grift.
not a zoomer but I can actually remember random shit I saw/did at 4 years old, so telling people they have recollection of being 6 is a stretch. '97 is the first zoomer year for this reason, as it means they have no recollection of the 20th century.
1996-1999 Is the Zoomer Mellow age group. They're either quiet, working full time / 2 jobs, hate their parents, hate the economy now that they're slung into adult responsibilities, and are almost always pro-choice.
Yup. Millenials seething as typical. Zoomers and Boomers just stay winning while you middle of the road axe-wound-between-the-legs homosexual Millenials continue to cry and piss your pants cause nobody buys your art tard snooze cruize of a game.
>B-BUT LE ZOOMAHS-
Nope. Zoomers actually don't like trans people. They may not be vocal about it but they sure as hell aren't comfortable with it. The only trannies or trans supporters in Gen Z are an incredibly small minority who were risen by pozzed Millennial parents and they are often bullied in the school and work place by regular zoomers. Simply put, you started, and are still currently the problem you dumb millennial homosexual. Most trannies are 25+ years old because they're just the typical millenial freak.
Zoomers are the ones that doubled down on the troon meme. Millennials are just got the ball rolling.

We aren't your "allies" you disgusting troon freaks. You are outcasts. >THERE'S TONS OF TRANS PEOPLE JUST LIKE M-ME! >TRANSFOLX COULD EASILY B-BEAT YOU UP IF YOU MISGENDER THEM!!!
Yup. Pure, unadultured homosexualry. Millenials really have lost it. Years of being ass raped with Boomer and Zoomer superiority has made them insane!
>muh zoomers are 20% lgbt clickbait statistic
All women claiming to be bisexual or "pansexual" because they think it's quirky. Meanwhile you see every mid 30s millennial loser trooning out these days.
I already said millennials have this as their main culture, but zoomers doubled down on it. I explained the reason for this is because the internet is now centralized, and all the big platforms now censor anything critical of this shit. As a result of this censorship, zoomers never hear contrary opinions in regards to these ideas, and if they do, they see how people who speak up are met with horrible consequences.
I'm counting on you zoomers to do the right thing. My generation might be full of shit and gays but yours doesn't have to be
Zoomers will be even worse than millennials, and alpha will literally be pic related. The centralization of the internet means its game over culturally. This shit has no counter to it, and has no way it can be knocked off its pedestal. Reddit and twitter are heavily guarded centers for culture and will vigilantly seek out and destroy any counter currents.

I was told this in 2016 when the deplatforming began. The cultural opposition at the time thought because Trump won the election that it meant things were turning around and that the "tumblr" culture was on its last legs or in the beginning of decline.
Most rightists in general are unable to take a realist look at situations, and when they do they assume somehow things magically will be restored if some hero on a white horse will come in out of nowhere and magically fix everything.
The truth is that something entirely new is going to be needed, but without high iq human capital or highly creative people, it can never never manifest to begin with. Just look at how quickly the counterculture from 2014 to 2017 waned after censorship. Its now almost gone from the mainstream.
I literally saw a zeitgeist zealot gloat that deplatforming and censorship works.
You yourself are engaging in the identity politics that marks this age's zeitgeist, with the black and white view that "all zoomers are based, and all millennials are pozzed." The unfortunate truth is that the millennials that believe wholeheartedly in the zeitgeist are the ones with cultural, economic, and social power, while the ones that reject it are largely on the margins.
With zoomers, them accepting the woke/sjw/radlib dogmas even more than millennials was due to how the internet ecosystem was after 2017. There is a reason why early zoomers seem to have more heterodox among them than late zoomers.

Listen man, I admitted this shit started with the millennials on tumblr in the early 2010's, and really spiraled out of control when most opposition to that culture got deplatformed or algorithmically censored after 2016. It was just a matter of the ecosystem zoomers found themselves in culturally. The contrary voices to to it basically disappeared from the mainstream unless you explicitly looked for overtly right or right leaning voices. Ganker in general was also very neutered and a shadow of its former self. It used to do raids on tumblr and coordinate meme campaigns against the zeitgeist. I am not sure you know just how much has changed since 2014 to 2017. The opposition to that culture is now relegated just to this site, where opposition is not even uniform, and boomers.

You’re close to the truth. Being far right is now the counterculture. Parents, teachers and corporations want globohomo, so rebellious kids don’t want it. It’s that simple.
Millennial here, this is all wrong. I prefer action games, shmups, rhythm games, anything that's hard but fair. Frick movie games, frick every game on the left side of this gay pic, I value gameplay above everything. (then visual style and music just slightly below in importance)
. here, as for music being less important than gameplay in the rhythm game department, I need to like the music first, but if the interface is garbage (just like every single Love Live game out there) then I will delete it from my library instantly.
I'm literally on the first year of being gen z and I fit that definition perfectly, woke millenials have ruined everything and they should be purged from the face of earth before a third world war erupts.
there are morons in both camps but much more in gen x and z. if this wasn't true then roblox and fortnite wouldn't be the most popular things on the planet.
1994 Millenial here
Grew up on half life 2, halo OG trilogy, mass effect OG trilogy, Dragon age, pokemon, and more
I hate woke shit and social media
Not all millennials deserve the hate, but I can see how they killed gaming
I can't think of the next vidya I'm actually excited for
Maybe the new Fable
>hollow knight
Well, there aren't that many cutscenes in hollow knight. Its gameplay might be simpler than those of other metroidvanias, but it doesn't really stop you from exploring as you see fit. Not my favorite in the genre, but it's decently open, despite its simplicity.
It's interesting to see people like you downplay things to anonymously fit in on Ganker when Hollow Knight is significantly harder than most metroidvanias, and the average metroidvania is about on par with or even more simple than Hollow Knight.

And society and politics are both awful right now.
>How can anyone hate Gen X? Thry did nothing wrong
Guess how old the parents are of kids who cut their dicks off while in the first grade.
Those are Millennial kids, you fricking moron, and I hate knowing that I'm a part of that generation.
Gen X are the generation that made all the good games, notice the moment that millennials get into the workforce the quality of games dipped tenfold. Gen X are the ones that made the gaming golden age but millennials are the morons that destroyed it.
I am the one that wrote this:
and I agree with your take. Unfortunately, the millennials with the "successor ideology" as their religion were all the ones with clout and they vehemently guarded the gates of culture.
gen x people are cool tbh never met a gen x guy I hated

Why are millennials so sensitive to criticism that they're worse than Gen X and Z? How Sad!

Millenials love retro shit
Yes? Millennials would be like kids playing those games. I was like 10 when Quake released and I played it then on PC and the N64. It wouldn't have been retro to us. Not sure what you guys define as millennial but I think you guys are confused with older Gen Y pushing to their late 20s now.
Sorta. A lot of the 1337 speak and meme concepts were already there as early as the 80s. Millennials would have continued that on and shaped sites like New Grounds, Myspace, YouTube, etc.
All those games on the left literally all zoomers (gen z) games, kid. Millenials are Starcraft, Diablo, Age of Empires 2 and CS. Basically the gods of gaming.
Also 50+ year old gen xers really still play anything?
pic related (adjust age for time)
Wow, that image is incredibly wrong. When it was made I'd have been right on the verge of Gen Z/Gen Y but I am and have been a lost closer to Gen X and some of the attitudes from boomers.
Not a thing has changed over the last 8 years except me being even more tired.
You moron, you are examining the "generational attitude" shit too closely. This is all bullshit marketing speak. It's about selling to as many people as possible. You shouldn't be seeing yourself in any of this shit unless you are literally the prototypical brainless consumer that they would prefer.

Reminder that millennials literally named a movie game (Walking Dead) as GOTY in 2012
You young ones don't realize how much good shit you've missed. The 2000s were, in a lot of ways, the golden days. Before the Internet became centralized and controlled by the big corpos, before videogames devolved into endless live services where no fun is allowed, when creativity was the name of the game and the word "cringe" didn't exist.
I fricking miss those days.

Can you folks believe Baby Boomers and Gen X will lead the future? They don't even know what it means to have fought in the World War, or to have lived through the Great Depression. They have no clue of how thorny things can get, they only know good times and can't think for the future. I am sorry for the future generations, they are fricked.

There are people who studied humanity and reassured themselves by saying that humanity won't fall to such pits anymore, many works expanded on the futility of war saying that they can feel the pain yet being not there
Regardless they feel pain despite being not responsible to the fall and do so because they believed in humanity, there are young ones that wants to go to war to punish russians but they won't go as far as they believe

Literally half of this shit is poached from Millennials. The only way you engaged with this stuff when it was new was if you were doing it when you were 2-6 years old.
Barely any of the stuff in this image is Zoomer.
Not 'barely'. None of it is Zoomer. Zoomers were too young to appreciate any of this shit when it came out, they just didn't have anything good during adolescence so they just enjoyed Millennial media instead.
Don't let these homosexuals try to claim your birthright, millennials.
Dumb history revisionist. Almost everything here came out post-2000 when Zoomers were in their childhood. This means their childhood and identity was partially formulated off of this. Your birthright is being a bunch of homosexuals who march for the LGBTQ.
As I said, there was some diversity among millennials. The ones that agreed with the "successor ideology" had basically a total victory by the end of the 2010's, while the millennials that still disagreed with it went off to the chans, kiwifarms (which got deplatformed very recently), or just got off the internet for the most part.
>millennials legit think they are still in their 20s
??? Are you moronic? There will be Millennials in their 20s for 4 more years.
the youngest ones are in their late 20s, at that point all of them should already have a house and a proper job
I guess at the youngest they could be around 28 or so years old nowadays and have enjoyed some of these things as kids. I was like 14 years old when Linkin Park came out with Hybrid Theory, probably the age group most people would associate with that type of music (angsty preteens/teens). But I'm sure some 6 year old also enjoyed it at the time in the same way when I was 6 years old I listened to some 70s-80s music my parents enjoyed (they were also young when they had kids so it wasn't that far away from their generational/childhood music).
This isn't the same thing. You didn't grow up in the 70s or 80s while gen z did grow up in the 2000s.
nah. he's right. my friend is 29, and associates Linkin Park with his parents more than himself
Why are you being such a gatekeeping homosexual? Would you prefer that the remaining minority of zoombers (like me) are just like the rest of the ebonic-fluent tiktok fortnite worshipping ilk?
I'm 23 and when I was around 5 or 6 years old, I was playing games on a laptop running fricking Windows 98. Witnessing fricking everything declining in quality over the past 10+ years has been fricking demoralising.
I'm not being a gatekeeper, they're free to enjoy it as much as they want, I'm just saying none of this media can be claimed as "Zoomer" because none of it had their age group in its demographic. The only one you could really argue are Foster's Home and some of the longer-running shows, but when they debuted they were aimed at millennials.
Ganker is just full of confrontational types, and contrarians for the sake of contrarianism. Pay him no mind.
For myself, my first console was the NES, and I pretty much kept up with gaming until the HD generation, of which I only got the Wii, DS, and PSP for that generation. After that I mostly was a retro gamer.
This is like a list of enjoying the things your older sibling had lol
Zoomers are PS3/X360 at the earliest.
I'm 23 and my first console was the ps2. Millennials are weird because they only do this age analysis shit to gen z. No one care if someone who is 32 says super metroid if apart of their childhood, but aparently i'm too young for PS2 games?
>everyone born after 1999 is moronic
You just had to fricking ruin it.
???
Not sure if you noticed, but people aren't getting married and having kids anymore.
Why are zoomers the most insufferable people to be around? At least genxers and millennials could get along but zoomers have to feel superior to everyone else when they have not accomplished a thing in life and tear down old stuff that they'll never understand at all. Maybe it's BLM or 1 second attention spans that made them this way.
>Maybe it's BLM or 1 second attention spans that made them this way
>The most average age for people who uses sites like twitter and reddit (which vehemently supports BLM and have short attention spans) are white millennial chicks in their mid 20's to early 30's
Once again, Millennials are projecting their self loathing and flaws on the younger generation. The only thing your homosexual generation has the attention span for is movie games and the newest shit that gets pumped out by some executives butthole to sell you shit based on nostalgia or "nerd" culture
White female millenials are the ones who indoctrinated the zoomers.
Glad we agree first world problems and rise in mediocrity in media and lessen attentions spans is the fault of millennials.

baby boomers dont want to let go of their television format which is why everything sucks.
im a millenial, the wild west internet was where we literally existed, zoomers ruined it because they are brainwashed by corporations from birth
you are a one of a kind when the internet was almost non existent in people's hands
you might as well not even have existed
the internet would not have existed if people like me and the friends ive made there werent populating it, it was the wild west because only smarter people were tech savvy enough to get in, now every moronic zoomer or normie with a phone has access to everything, it was better because it was smaller and not ran by corporations

What is it with zoomers hating old media? I have never seen this in previous gens.
ah yes, millenials sure love black-and white movies huh
They do. Anyone that is into actual film does, zoomies were birthed on cal arts pixar and marvel.
>Anyone that is into actual film
So almost nobody in the general public
We love black and white movies.
They love black on white movies
Depends on the black and white movie bro.
Zoomers were taught that old is bad, and progress for its own sake is the way forward.
>taught that old is bad, and progress for its own sake is the way forward.
but enough about millenials
Millenials were taught that technology is the way, that it will save us from all problems, so that's what we looked forward to. The social aspect was not part of the conversation, because everyone assumed that we figured everything out already.
Zoomers grew up in a completely different climate, where social tensions ran high at all times and old media was seen as not simply old, but poisonous. This is the critical flaw in modern thinking - people look at the past as something dangerous, something to avoid. So they can't learn from it.
t. stupid millennial
Both were wrong, you idiot. Technology did not save us, it made things worse. And the same will happen with this social accelerationism zoomers are trying to achieve.
shut up millennial troony.

Yes.

Unironically what is wrong with child labor? It helps build character.
something something children should be helpless morons and as adults they should be too
Ah so it was just leftist israeli nonsense that once again served to degrade further generations, nothing new. It is horrifying to even just imagine how much better the people from 2-3 generations ago were. I'm almost certain I would have turned out better if I had been put to work from an early age.
>not wanting to exploit children and have them work to death is now considered israeli nonsense
jesus fricking christ, take your pills you absolute fricking schizo.
yes yes rely on your others and buy new products instead instead of teaching children actual useful skills and real effort rather than sitting in front of a computer for the rest of their life
Nice strawman.
Never did I state I am against children learning useful skills.
However if you believe child labor on an industrial scale was in any way beneficial to their mental or physical development you are either completely delusional or just malicious.
>it's a strawman because i said so
yes because schools teach you anything beyond nonsense and math
if you told someone that children shouldn't work a hundred years ago they'd laugh you off and punch your teeth out
No it is literally a strawman.
You are arguing against things I never even claimed.
I even agree with you to a certain degree.
I'm all for children getting to learn skills but in a sensible manner.
Exploiting them on a grand scale is completely insane.
Also just because people said something a hundred years ago doesn't necessarily mean they were right.
>but in a sensible manner
That is sensible. Take away the industrialism and instead they're working the fields at the age of twelve. Horrifying, isn't it?
>Comparing an 8 yo slave working on dangerous machinery for 15 hours in a confined space with no work-place safety whatsoever to some 12 yo making some pocket-money with farm work.
Bit of a stretch, don't you think?
Which is why we have work safety councils. Why should 20 year old men be fat childish mongs, instead of 14-year-olds being responsible adults before they've even hit the age of 18?
This moron trying to defend child labor when he was eating tendies and playing mario kart when he himself was a child.

If child labor is so great, then what factory did you work in as a child?
And if you didn't work as a child, why should anyone believe what you have to say, since you never built character?

No one's talking about all technology, don't pretend to be moronic. We're talking about how smartphones and our obsession with social media broke society. From cancel culture vultures digging through everyone's decade-old trash to find anything worth piling on to mental illness peaking higher than ever before because having no meaningful social interactions with real people doesn't make for a healthy headspace, we dug ourselves a deep fricking hole that we won't ever climb out of. And now even your escapist fantasies are getting invaded by people desperate to impose their will onto others because they have no control over anything in their lives.
This wasn't what we were thinking of when MySpace first became a thing.

>This wasn't what we were thinking of when the telephone first became a thing.
You are absolutely moronic if you don't realize how today's technology makes us dumber. There are tons of studies showing how certain brain regions stop working properly because our gadgets replace the thought-processes involved. Technology and inventions are not about ascending humanity but to make a profit and turn us into helpless consumer-cattle.
>technology makes us dumber.
ALL technology makes us dumber. Do you think a farmers in the 1800s knew how to take down an elephant without the use of firearms? Or where the best berries and nuts can be found in thr wild? Or how to make their own arrowheads and other weapons from obsidian? Or mix their own pigments for wall art? The Agricultural Revolution took us out of our hunter-gatherer phase and helped set us on our current path... but in the process, everything we learned about life as hunter-gatherers was lost. Does that mean we're "dumber" than our hunter-gatherer ancestors?
Speaking of which, define "dumber". I mean, I know what it means in a vacuum (eg "less smarter"), but how would you define it in the context of technology?
All technology allows us to spend less mental energies on certain tasks, ideas, knowledge, and frees them up to be spent on other things. If you are suggesting that modern technology is ensuring that more energy is spent on random gossip videos or illicit politics, etc, understand that that is something that has been a constant throughout the history of humanity. The Epic of Gilgamesh, for example, is still possible to be enjoyed today, because the human values from 5000ish years ago are the same as today, and those same values are in play within the technology that is "making us dumber".
funny cause andrew tate is a lot closer to the yellow press reader
Tate is weird to me because he seemed like a caricature of the pick up artists and men's rights guys that had somewhat notable during the late 2000's to the mid 2010's. Nothing about him was exceptional, and he had no unique or intelligent insights. I think it was because he got big on tiktok, and was the only one of that subset that managed to do so.
>No one's talking about all technology
Then be more specific. If someone makes a blanket statement like "technology has made things worse" only to then be like "I don't mean all technology", that's just being flat out moronic for being vague, and it's no one's fault but the person making those statements if people misinterpret it.
A gentleman says what he means, and means what he says.
Of course then the issue becomes "OK, WHAT technology is OK, and what technology ruined us?"... but no matter what is chosen, I can guarantee that the line separating the two is arbitrary as frick. Like, maybe the line is between pre- and post-Industrial Revolution, but the motivations behind it is similar to the Agricultural Revolution, and thus if the Industrial Revolution was evil, so was the Agricultural Revolution.
The best solution to technology isn't to eliminate it out of fear, because elimination never destroys it but simply kicks the can down the road. Roman tech, for example, returned to us, despite being "lost". Instead, humanity needs to learn how to not let it control us, and the only way to do that is to that is to step through the door of technology.
Everyone responding to you is a zoomer, so of course they don't get what you're talking about. I do though and yes, you are right. These zoomer gays aren't able to grasp the negative effects of tech because they can't go without their phone for more than a day
There's no need to be more specific. If you can't grasp the difference than you're moronic. I'm not the guy but if we're talking about digital technology than this is a kind of tech that was more revolutionary and culturally changing than railroad, airplane and radio. At least with the latter tech, kids could still get educated and develop skills unhindered. With digital technology learning itself is directly affected. Not even television can compare. For this reason children's performance in school is dropping. It is important that people abstain from this tech, but its also impossible to do so. The human mind was not meant to handle all of these distractions. And people do not "spend their time on other things", they just fiddle on their phones and computers all day. If this were so true, then zoomers would be producing mozart-tier, games and films by now. Clearly they are not.
>Technology did not save us, it made things worse
I just read the Y axis as a percentage, holy shit.

Zoomers are smart enough to thunk than your genuration.
Aren't teachers reporting that the tech knowledge/understanding is plummeting outside of using apps on their phones?
Gen Z is entering into their mid 20s. They’re not on the extreme youth anymore. I don’t know what the gen after Z is called but gen Z is now at that point where they’ll start experiencing nostalgia of their own hard and we’ll see a new influx of video essays about games from the 2010s like we have even for 2000s era games.
You have never talked to a zoomer in your life if you believe this in earnest
What are you talking about. Millennials literally shat on anything before them hard.
Millennials projecting as always.
Daily reminder that capeshit target audience is your millennial generation instead of zoomer or gen alpha kek.
While in reality, zoomers are enjoying old/classic media, hence why both film and games industries are having a hard time making a product that panders to zoomer specifically.
zoomers call games "dated" and only play fortnite lmao, they cant handle old media and call it badly designed
Zoomers aren't aware of any media that doesn't show up in their 5 second Tik-Toks, Anon.
I was literally just playing an RPG game from 1993, earlier. Most millennials wouldn't even consider doing that
Why are you still sticking to the "my generation is special unlike yours" stick like a woman on her social media in a website filled with socially inept men?
Why are you still sticking to ridiculous overgeneralizations and stereotypes like a woman?
>my generation wasn't a bunch of a emo homosexuals
troony millennial wienersucker ynbaw unlike us zoomers
Yep. Millennials never bothered to explore anything beyond what was on TV or in their magazines, or what was popular on the playground. They'll ignore films like Casablanca and Lawrence of Arabia, but then call zoomers uncultured for not watching some gay shit like Seinfeld.
get off your high horse, most zoomers have been faced with seinfeld reruns since they were in the nursery
You need to get off your cope here. That shit was ran from like the goddamn plague.
it's because of it being shoved down our throat .
we hate those bald frick telling that what you like is shit because they played bugzy .
still like old stuff though
What you like IS shit though.
I’m in my mid 20s (idk if that counts as zoomer) and I almost exclusively consume old media. I have friends younger than me who do the same. Liking old media is not special or rare, which you’d realize if you stopped sucking yourself off long enough to have a conversation with normal people.
what are you talking about?
As a millenial I'm looking forward to generation alpha completely mindbreaking gen z once they're out of the spotlight. Gen alpha is looking like the most braindead generation yet, but somehow look less annoying than gen z.
Gen Alpha will be even worse than zoomers. Zoomers pretty much just took after the worst millennials. Now there are no nexuses for them to deviate from the zeitgeist in the Western world. Local culture is dead. Pic-related. A counter culture is needed, but without high quality and creative human capital and with an extremely vigilant force of heretic hunters, it would never even get off the ground.
I mean to say with an extremely vigilant force of heretic hunters going against it from the very start. You see this with how troons pretty much have the entire internet under their thumb. Look at how they got kiwifarms deplatformed with their help of the state's propaganda corps.

And then they invade the threads I do go into, so now they're right in my face.
I wish I could be that man
i kneel
I use to be like this.
I want to return to it.
so do so
i hate women so much
leave that autist alone
W*men will never understand, stay eternally based, bro.

Its always funny seeing millennials claim themselves to be the most divine generation that ever existed.
When did millennials ever claim that? Younger Millennials were being hazed by older Millennials, and Gen X for years simply for existing. Then Zoomers come along, and act like they're hot shit despite being the cancer with their shitty battle royales, streamer e-celebs, social media obsession. Do you know when old game recommendation threads stopped? When millennials for the most part outgrew Ganker, and Zoomers took their place. Millennials actually had an interest in Gen X games, and were not only interested in movie games like you claim. At least not on Ganker.
>Do you know when old game recommendation threads stopped? When millennials for the most part outgrew Ganker,
Or maybe when retro games got their own board with /vr/.
Wrong Black, /vr/ didn't kill old game discussion on Ganker until years later. It contained most of the discussion, but there were still recommendation threads on here. Until millennials left the place that is.
Sorry millenial bro but it's your turn to be the unwanted middle child of society now.
Just wait it out and soon you'll see lil zoom posting about the next batch of 18-24 year olds who are definitely ruining everything for everyone for all time.
This happens every generation. Literal baby boobers and silent gen hippies were hating on their parents. Then baby boomers hated Gen X while Gen X rebelled with punk rock and metal, and they did the same to millennials and vice versa. Different age groups always attack each other.
>stein
>rebelled.
Rebellion is conformism in the West. Read pic related.
I find it wierd that Ganker of all places has this generational divide when everyone who browsed here since 2005 are social outcasts with no place in the hierarchy outside this site.
>projection
>be me
>haven't played any of those games
>grew up on right "excluding zoom eternal
>zoomer pretends he even knows what an NES is
...yes...
Reading this thread is so hilarious, all these butthurt troony millennials are just pathetic
Zoomers already won
Older corpo. folks are the ones that controls and moves the young ones through algorytms and social media, pretty ironic
You know there might be some kernel of truth to this. I see all my boomer coworkers spending their break watching TikTok
Oh shit, it's Jeremy Clarkson
You weren't kidding holy shit
>when the life crisis is mid
underrated
Millennials are so pathetic
Yes, more division. Good.
Zoomers are still young enough to be in the confident rebellious stage where they can safely think, "Well I won't turn out like that poor guy" "I won't repeat those mistakes" "We can do it better than they did". Give it a decade or two, they'll all see.
>Well I won't turn out like that poor guy" "I won't repeat those mistakes" "We can do it better than they did"
>Give it a decade or two, they'll all see
A decade or two, and I'll be scavenging ruins, raiding bunkers, and showing kids actual dead bodies.
Suck on that old man.
The only way there will be a collapse is if nuclear war happens and if that happens everyone will be dead from radiation poisoning you LARPer.
Secondly, even in a Mad Max style world, you would likely end up killed or enslaved by a warlord as opposed to just being a lone bandit that gets to do bandit things with impunity.
I don't think shit would change much if nukes dropped to be honest.
You are an absolute idiot It would frick soil for a very long time, and at the very least (assuming only one or two cities were destroyed), cause a strong economic recession. Maybe things would be unaffected if the bombs dropped outside of the cities though.
>The only way there will be a collapse is if nuclear war happens
>you would likely end up killed or enslaved by a warlord as opposed to just being a lone bandit that gets to do bandit things with impunity
Quit protecting your survival chances unto me old man.
The funny thing at the end of the day is that regardless of being a zoomer, millenial or """"boomer"""" we're all ultimately stuck in this israeli globohomosexual controlled era. Doesn't matter how "good" you had it in the past if the present is is this shit.
How are the games on the left even remotely millenial? I neither played any game on the left or the right. Go play some more Forteshite homosexual
>NOOO! YOU CAN'T DECIDE WHAT GAMES I PLAYED IN MY LIFE LIKE I ALWAYS DO WITH YOU!
It irks, doesn't it?
I mean sure everyone could've played all those games no matter the age.
But I've grown up with stuff like Unreal, Thief Gold, Neverwinter Nights etc.
Why the frick would I play any of the garbage on the left just because I'm a millenial?
Why do Millennials like this kind of humor?
Trust me, we don't.
then why is it that all they write?
Because the writers are fricking morons
Because the only people who can make it in the industry these days are morons who believe Joss Whedon's Buffy the vampire Slayer is the pinnacle of fiction and the only type of content anyone should ever try to emulate.
Explain millennialcucks constantly gushing over capeshit then
They do so ironically
Nice cope soi guzzling millennial
They do so because gen z-x watches their content constantly since they're on the internet all the time. Why would they stop if it rakes in the cash?
Wrong, they genuinely enjoy marvel capeshit. Why lie like this?
No, you misunderstand me, I agree they genuinely enjoy it and make money out of talking about it, my point is that gen z-x consumes not only capeshit, but the content the millenials put out as well.
Ah, you mean the parasocial relationships? Who do you think donates to these people? Gen z don't have disposable income...
They don't, but they have time that they use to watch people and thus generate money for them instead of generating money for themselves.

You gotta be shitting me.
in comparison to millennials/boomers they're practically ascetics
this is honestly shamefully bad
imagine working and you waste all your money on this worthless trash that will never have any value but these inept morons somehow think this shit is a investment fricking meaningless pop culture bobbleheads
they're not even good looking figures or stuff you build yourself. I have no idea why people buy those shitty funko pops. Even some shitty kid toy figurine would be better
That's just sick. They don't even look good, I could understand it if those were actually good figures but that garbage is really something else.
Why is it that all American figures look like complete and utter dogshit?
Obesity is on the rise and America is leading the pack as it does in all things
That has nothing to do with anything I said.
Did you mean to say figurines?
No, I didn't. "Figure" is a common term for this, and it's not my fault you're unable to look to see what was being replied to.
Anon you have to be moronic or esl to not think American figures is referring to American body types
>Reply to a post with an image of dozens of homosexual pops
>You immediately assume I'm talking about body types
You are moronic.
Americans are amorphous fat fricks so their toys reflect it
motherfricker never heard of context clues lecturing on english
I walked past a zoomer yesterday opening like sixty packs of pokemon cards. You are not above anything.
>he says when Millennials started the trend and are far far worse
This is all made up nonsense. Zoomers are Millennials on steroids. Gen X are even more political than Boomers. Every generation is more obnoxious than the last.
whatever simplistic self-serving narrative helps you get through your day lil buddy
Nah, you're a lying homosexual. Zoomers are Millennials brought up with an even larger technological presence in their life. While social media was a side thing for Millennials and Gen X it is the main reason for existence for Zoomers. Gen X are a bunch of homosexual political morons, and millennials were even more gay and more political. Boomers are unironically more spiritual than every generation that came after them, but their naivety and attachment to the old ways made them destroy society in the process. They did not think of the world they would leave behind for future generations. Basically every generation after the silent generation lacks responsibility, and is worse than the last.
I get it. You're angry. You have a mirror pointed at you and you don't like what you see. Maybe instead of lashing out at the one holding it you should take a good long look at yourself.
Nice dismissal of an entire post, you know I'm right. Dumb gay thinks any generation post WWII is worth a shit, frick off.
Some people can't cope with the reality of the greatest generation actually being the greatest generation. It's a tough pill to swallow when they have an inferiority complex
Millennial gamers lived grew up in the greatest era in gaming.
Every game we played was made by boomers that didn't grow up playing games. They were experimental, th ley were unique, and they had soul. The internet was a new technology that supplemented your social life instead of trying to replace it. Games were rapidly advancing in technology and so different from one to the next, genres were emerging. The future of games looked so bright. We could all imagine the possibility of the future.
Then the future came and creative roles trickled down to gen x. Now I can't imagine millenials will do anything better when they dominate leadership positions.
We have the same problem the music and film industries had.
Not only are those childhood dreams dead, the children of today don't even dream. I truly pity gen z, they will never know what they didn't have. But then again, we only had it for a blink of an eye
boomers ruined the financial world and millennial and xgennigers ruined the social one
The boomers are literally the hippy generation. They poured a tank full of gas into the move away from personal responsibility with no fault divorce (the biggest mistake that we ever made and the main cause of our modern problems), expansive welfare programs, this obsession with victim narratives, etc.
Boomers barely were able to start voting when those were put into law. Keep in mind the voting age was originally 21, and the boomers start in 1946. Most of those laws pass in the 1960's. Hippies were largely a small part of the silent generation and early boomers.
They were made to be a lot bigger than they actually were because a lot of former hippies later ended up going into teaching, entertainment, and media, and hence could shape perception.
When did you first get into video games? What are your favorite game consoles and games overall?
Is 1995 millennial or Z? It's always on the cusp and half the sources say one, half the other. I guess I personally resonate more with later millennials because I started school a year early. I have the same problem with astrology (inb4 >astrology), I'm in between Aries and Taurus. Same birthday as Hitler btw
Zillennial
have a nice day
Millennial you moron. I'm born in 93, my brother was born in 95. He's exactly like me, and has nothing in common with the entitled Zoomer kiddies.
Everyone born in the 1990s is a proto-zoomer/zillennial. Not actual millennials.
That’s just false. Everyone above 1996 is a disgusting zoomer.
And the 1988-1994 group is the source of all that was good on the internet before zoomers fricked it up
People born in the mid 90s depends on the person. If you had older siblings or were born in a third world country that had delays in technology, it's possible you got to experience all the things a true millenial experienced like Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, SNES, etc.
I'm just glad Ganker can finally tell the difference between genx and boomers. As a genxer I'm just glad to be acknowledged at all.
I thought everybody forgot we existed.
>ZOOMERS
>Play League of Legends and Fortnight

League was millennial thing. The 2010's were the worst decade in gaming ever.
Millennials during the 2010s would be in their 20's~ early 30's. The younger developers might have been apart of that group but those in charge were definitely managers or execs at the 40~50 year old groups who came in after the sixth console generation.
zoomers ruin everything. god the internet was so good back in 2005
Millennials are the ones who shaped the internet before zooms arrived.
yeah the same ones who let be centralized by willingly giving their info to israelitebook and israelitegle
thanks so much
I don't think zoomzoom even play games, most just watch streams.
Millennials only wanted to die, the most common joke they made is about dying.
You can't blame much on a gen that just wanted to be left alone to die.
This. Millennial humor is all about suicide, being depresserino and le doggos.
which is exactly why they're most pathetic
go have a nice day for real instead of wasting people's time just a bunch of attention whoring mentally ill morons
>attention whoring
But they don't want the attention, you just fail to ignore them and leave their spaces.
If you keep going to them it's not their fault, you know.
>they don't want the attention, you just fail to ignore them and leave their spaces
Coping millennial.
eh, more like wanting to shoot up a place, then die.
They tried to poz us. Tried.
Look at this graph. You would have to be a total brainlet to think that they did not win. Just the fact that troons are the unquestioned overlords of the internet should be able to show their victory alone.
I thought Death Stranding was good.
More like death nigging
The only decent people i respect are those from the 80's, 90's and very few forward, those of the 2000's and forward became obsessed with pleasure and ertaintaiment without hard work and meaningful life lessons to balance it out
Future generation Will not provide anything meaningful as they will rewrite and deconstruct the past to make themselves seen as gods
>hard work and meaningful life lessons
For Profit Work Overlords and Robotics made that a pipe dream for most people as soon as the 00's hit.
No, for being a decent human being that is aware that it's not invincible and has flaws like every other being
im from 97’ what am I
Zooms started at 96
imagine using 'woke' unironically
Millenial culture
It is so ubiquitous now that the only ones left calling it "woke" are the remnants of the short lived mid-2010's counterculture and right leaning Gen X and boomers. A new term is probably needed to describe the state religion of the Western world.
>the millenial
>zoomers games
I'm a millennial and my generation grew up playing DKC, Tomb Raider, Gran Turismo, Pokemon, OoT, THPS, etc, as kids.
Yeah this OP is intentionally moronic. More and more zoomers taking up this board. Its such shit now.
That's what I was thinking. I don't know why people are suddenly acting like these progressive garbage games are marketed to anyone except zoomies.
Millennials made Hollow Knight and Gen Z plays shit like Genshin Impact.
Zoomers are going to have the lowest birth rates in all humanity. It's so obvious. They'll even claim this as a point of superiority, that's how you know the white race will end with them, they can't even stop themselves from Black personizing their hair and wearing those moronic short shorts.
>They'll even claim this as a point of superiority
Eugenics. Zoomers are saving the white race be only allowing the strongest to breed
See what I mean? They can't help themselves from taking a criticism and making it their whole personality. That's why all those SoundCloud rappers lean into the moronic face tattoos, the only way they can culturally identify is by being the most obnoxious version of whatever some homosexual called them when they were sixteen
I brag about not breeding because this fricking world is shit and dystopian
there's nothing worth living for I only sit by idle playing video games and watching youtube videos because I want to
That's what happens when people base their whole their life on the internet world and not the real one, the net to me was just a way to forever preserve and honour all the good past things but now it's the opposite because they all became so easily seen and controlled info. that they can be changed, deleted and rewrited with just a quick edit, all past history will be eventually filtered out because there is too much amount of new info. which quality is just as MGS2 predicted
Zoomers dont play gmaes they watch streamers and israelitetube videos about it.

Millennials likely need to be spit into two generations, 80s born and 90s or later born. The difference between those who grew up before social media and those after is staggering, to say the least. First Cohort Millennials are vastly different from those who came later, zoomers etc.
Zoomers beat millenials in that there is a trendy gym culture among us. Being more Ganker makes us inherently better.
Zyzz died before you were even born.
idk if you understand how careers work but all the games on the left are made by gen x
minecraft is made by gen x
fortnite is made by gen x
>responsible for the globohomosexual woke
lol
Before you kids were even born the boomers where complaining about the gen x and their "political correctness gone mad" bullshit. It wasn't called "woke" but gen x had the same goddamn shit. Just the transing the kids stuff was missing is all.
When Christianity collapsed, people had to fill their spiritual vacuum with something.
I'm so confused. Is that his stepdaugher or does he have a split personality?
No. The wife made a post on social media chewing out her husband and announcing over it that he will divorce him. There is no indication this is a stepdaughter, and the husband is addressed with an east asian name.
*that she will divorce him.
>The wife
Oh, that's a women. I thought it was a dude.
Actually, even as an old First Corhort Millennial I remember the "first rising" of political correctness in the 90s. Go watch a movie called "PCU" for instance that lampoons the whole thing, about an "animal house + GenX slacker" outcast "not a frat" that needed to raise money to avoid getting expelled, so they had to get all the people on the most whiny campus in the country to stop protesting each over over inane shit and come to their party.
The difference is that back then social media as we know it didn't exist so outside of university and other insular communities the most extreme examples didn't have people saying that everyone needs to take them seriously because they had followers on twitter or something, or the ability to dig up something "problematic". This was also true as the religious right was resurgent and trying to ban vidya - this was the era of video game violence ruining the children etc.
You could call someone a homosexual to their face and it wouldn't get around, so no one could post in public "Look what this homophobe said!" Also, no constant surveillance via actual government surveillance and peoples little phone camera.
gen x wasnt really the quake generation, that's early millennials
gen x played pong and c64
Zoomers are BY FAR the most woke generation yet. Generation Alpha will be even worse.
Really, I think millenials tie for woke too. I mean, didn’t the trans movement florish with that generation? Usually, from my experience, zoomers really just don’t care if somebody is trans or not for example, while mostly millenials were the ones putting them on a pedestal. But this is also the flaws of defining a whole generation of people under a single term. I am one of the early zoomers, as I am 20. And I am not like a lot of zoomers. For example, I didn’t really care for shooter games and I don’t like Tiktok.
You are correct that there are a lot of millennials that believe the present zeitgeist and that it was largely millennial driven. It was millennials that deplatformed non-woke/sjw/radlib millennials.
The only difference is that there is probably less millennials that think the present zeitgeist is bs than zoomers, but this is largely only due to the fact that there were a lot more millennials that grew up with an open internet than zoomers did (particularly late zoomers).
If your ideas formulated on the internet after 2016, you largely accept the the woke/sjw/radlib premises and ideas, and the very few dissident spaces left that do not have those values have both unintelligent literal nazis and glowies trying to get the former to do bad things so they get more funding.
t. millennial.
I mean to say that there are probably more millennials that think the present zeitgeist is bs than zoomers.
>If your ideas formulated on the internet after 2016, you largely accept the the woke/sjw/radlib premises and ideas
I don't know. I just saw a video the other day of a teacher getting angry with her young class because they refused to use the term "minor attracted person" or to treat pedos with anything other than contempt.
Back in 2016, /misc/ had the meme that zoomers were "Generation Zyklon" due to their edgy humor and openness to radical right ideas. Particularly videos were shared of students trolling their teachers like pretending to be in solidarity for supporting Trump just for the reaction of having their teacher meltdown.
The meme did not age well when you look at Gen Z as a whole, and how the tumblr cultural norms simply accelerated over the past six years with no speed bumps.
The fact she had resistance to her shitty ideas is not a testament to the fortitude of her students to reject bs, but rather her sloppy ability to sell an idea. Unironically, she is like a conservative authority figure that tried to sell their ideas on the basis of "tradition" or "because I said so". She automatically assumed her idea would be accepted without the lubricants of propaganda and social pressure.
>the meme did not age well when you look at Gen Z as a whole, and how the tumblr cultural norms simply accelerated over the past six years with no speed bumps
Because the power has been completely taken away from everyone. Back then you could grandstand about voting for donald trump and just get a lot of shit for it. You're gonna get thrown out for just disagreeing on trannies with someone now. No punches are being pulled anymore. All you can do now is turn off your computer and just talk in meatspace now.
I do wonder what the long term implications of this will be. I honestly bite my tongue in person because of how people act over the internet, and I just know how organized they are and I am fearful they have a hidden blacklist somewhere.
Meatspace is the last stand, anon. You can still shoot the shit with your friends these days, just not online. They can't read your mind. Not yet.
You can't influence crap in the meat space when you cannot organize things online. The world has changed. Its pretty much just venting like on this shithole but with one or two warm bodies around you.
>Back in 2016, /misc/ had the meme that zoomers were "Generation Zyklon" due to their edgy humor and openness to radical right ideas.

>The meme did not age well when you look at Gen Z as a whole, and how the tumblr cultural norms simply accelerated over the past six years with no speed bumps.
I always feared Zoomers and their "edginess" would be abandoned as they reach their 20s, and in turn would view their edgy politically incorrect formative years as being "young and stupid", and thus being a "progressive leftist adult" would be the thing they're supposed to aspire to as they mature. It's almost clown-world development in that your teenage years of being dumb and liberal and the adult years where you become more practical and conservative are switched around for zoomers.
That's barely it at all considering that younger zoomers did not even have that (a politically incorrect phase that eschewed the tumblr zeitgeist). It only happened because at one point a counterculture was starting to develop or was here for a few years and that was only due to the internet not having been "sanitized" yet. Notice how late zoomers are even more dogmatic than the early zoomers?
Also, switching politics as you get older is a meme and a cope that was invented by conservatives. It certainly did not happen with millennials.
>It certainly did not happen with millennials.
lol my country's male millenials vote overwhelmingly for a party founded by an SS Officer.
Let me guess. Austria?
Sweden.
If millenial men were to decide the foreigners would all be re-migrated at gunpoint.
I heard of the upcoming election. We shall see how that turns out. If your millennial women voted like your millennial men things might be different in terms of election outcome compared to the last one, but women mostly get their ideas from social media and entertainment unfortunately. Its the same in America too:
I do not want to blackpill you, but if the Swedish election had a chance of going awry for globohomo, /misc/'s catalog would be full of swedish election demoralization shill threads.
I wouldn't bet on globohomosexual honestly knowing how things here work all that well.
They seem to prefer the party leader who even her own party doesn't want to see as PM.
That said I wouldn't be surprised how it goes either way this election.
I've sort of checked out myself, and am even considering leaving. Working for all of your life and having half of it taken away is already hard to justify when it's going to decent things for your people and now it's being re-distributed among foreign robbers and their fifth column allies.
The unfortunate thing is that the entire West now has the same culture. There is no escape unfortunately.
There's plenty of local culture that doesn't buy into it but the governments, sure.
If nothing else there's always the East.
The east is rapidly getting pozzed especially among the youth. There was literally BLM protests in those countries despite having a negligible population of sub-saharan african origin. All of those countries, outside of maybe Poland, are dying demographically.
I was thinking more the far east.
I have no particular illusions about east euros.
It was a bad meme but hey, we all make mistakes
Its was a case in point example of do not count your chickens before they hatch.
right, so can the video be posted of that teacher defending pedophiles
post that video
I feel like these generation grouping make little sense these days outside of being bait for these threads. XYZ+ seem to bleed together like you would expect from people all consuming basically the same media.
So what if I was alive before 2008 and lived in a world before mass social media and smart phones the people my age are hooked as hard as anyone else.
Its only some of the older people where you see the real difference in attitudes. The scale of what formed a distinct generation like that is just different.
That is a good point. The internet has blended culture more than ever. Boomers are the ones who tend to not use the internet much, so that would explain how it didn’t apply with them. But the younger generations are more exposed to other generations. We know about the same video games overall, and we experience new video games around the same time. It is similar to how culture has been more similar between countries.
im a millennial and i prefer the gen x and gen z games to any of the trash on the millennial side
Milennials truly ruined the vidya industry. All the good shit was made Gen Xers and Zoomers.
Just compare how threads used to be then (pre-2016) and now, specifically each words were and are used to start a thread
Also compare all the popular actors people looked up to in the 80-90's to modern popular 2010+'s e-celebs modern people looks at
Every single one of those 80s-90s actors went insane during the 2016 election. That's why nobody likes them anymore.
That's because people liked them for their interpretations in movies than what really are, rich actors that are not dicks or not betrayed their form views are quite rare
Actors and actresses, particularly those involved with hollywood, were never well adjusted people even going back to 50+ years ago. They just came across as such because they had agents that manged their public appearance. Social media was just an unmasking.
Rage 2 was literally Nu-Doom's shooting and movement mechanics shoved into the Mad Max game, both of which are basically a reskinned Just Cause.
...ah okay maybe that isn't really a good thing
Zoomers literally wish they could claim any other generation
This is true. Zoomers don't actually want to be themselves. Boomers, GenX and Millennials all had something worth identifying with.

PS2 and Wii were the greatest consoles because you could emulate pretty much everything, even watch all the kinds of films
Sad new generations are taught to despise hacking (also because the scene became filled with cancer) and support companies that only sees you as money+1 boost
The Wii (along with the DS and PSP), was the last vestige of how gaming was prior to the seventh generation. Their libraries were still dominated by Japanese software and DLC was a limited thing on them.
I am a millennial, and my first console was the NES and I was basically still heavily glued into games until the 2010's, after which I basically got heavily into retro video games.

where does the mutt LGBTQGroomer generation get off saying millennials are shit?
frick zoomers, you're all brown troony freaks
Zoomers got all of their ideas from the millennials that shouted the loudest on social media and ended up becoming their jannies. There is some diversity among millennials to a notable degree, even though the plurality of them online are theocrats for the "successor ideology". With Gen Z, particularly the late ones, all they have ever known is the "successor ideology".
Its not seen at all as weird or peculiar because it has been with them their whole lives, and opposition to it has now mostly been mostly relegated to old people and unbalanced dissidents.

>not knowing about FMV games, or adventure games in general really, which were the movie games of the 80's and 90's
why do zoomers like to think boomers and gen x are on their side against millennials?
Probably because of all of the "lol, millennials" humour. They don't realise old people still think Millennials are like 15.
i'm 32 and a zillennial
1990 is squarely millennial, quit trying to save face you aging chickenshit.
okay? yes i am a millennial, but i'm also a zillennial. actual millennials are born in the 80s, dude. me in 1990, so i'm a zillennial
everyone hates boomers i have never once worked with a boomer that didnt act like a 2 year old
genxers and millennials never fought this bad online. Gen wars were stupid af and people who participate in them weren't from the same online community or quickly learned that it wasn't worth the time. We knew we were just social outcasts with the same interests and appreciate any title without having a label.
because gen Z are lame. they chose to idolize their parents and rebel against their older brother like a little worm who punches his own arm and then says you did it to them.
>rebel against their older brother
I'm a only child you little b***h
a man child.
You a projector or something?
Gen Y will always be the gamer generation. We saw everything, the good and the bad, the highs and the lows, the evolution and stagnation. Gen X got in too early to fully appreciate it and at best got stuck playing arcade games, and Gen Z missed out entirely and spent 8 years playing GTA V and Fortnite. They know this and it makes them mad, so always remind them of this whenever you get a chance.
>gamer generation
What a prestigious title.
I'm proud to be a gamer, I hate women and minorities.
death stranding doesnt deserve to be on the left
you will never be in your 20s again.
good. Those were the worst times of my life. 30s is where it's at.
you will never be in your teens again
I'm a millennial. I play games I find enjoyable, whether that be your definition of 'movie games' or gameplay-focused ones like Bayonetta, DMC, Elden Ring, Doom Eternal, whatever.
I don't worry about what some homosexuals on a mongolian basket weaving site are going to say about my taste in video games, I just play what gives my brain the feel-good chemical.
Walling yourself off from entire genres of games on some moronic principle is some of the dumbest shit I've ever heard of and I hope you have a nice day.
All these buzzwords were made to divide the people and make them crazier, if you can't realize it there's no saving you
what do you call the depressed individual that sees even the older games he used to play nonstop as not worth the time to play?
>no u
Zoomers haven't learned their lesson at all. Also, alpha is the actual current gen.
The older of gen alpha is 12 years old.
Zoomers play those battle royale games tho
Elden Ring and Nioh were millenial games.
I'm just a 27 year old doomllennial who had fond memories playing gamecube, gameboy advance, ps2, and N64 titles. I haven't played a new video game since 2015 and only stick to older games. Never heard of the shit on the left except DS which I have never played but will try. The games on the right are what you guys were playing in your teens I assume. The things that I got into in my teens were L4D, Terraria, TF2, Papers Please, and Hotline Miami idk why nu Saints Row TLOU2 or Life is Strange is doing there.
>hates it when a game stops holding his hand and calls it a "bad UX"
yeah i fricking hate those gays. that's most of you btw, judging by every fighting game thread.
every soulless corporate game that came out for the past 5 years were marketed towards teens and young adults, and they will be praised by zoomers in 10 years for the nostalgia
Maybe not the right thread for it but does anyone have that compilation pic of all the zoomer games with neon purple+cyan highlighting?
zoomers are all about detroit become human right now so they definitely jumped on the movie game bandwagon.
Putting Rage 2 with those other shitty games is unfair. It's not the best game ever, but it also has gameplay above all, and it's very light on SJW stuff, I don't remember anything other than female bandits.
Reminder generational labels are completely arbitrary and a grift by israelites to create artificial division and if you fall for it you might have developmental issues i.e you're a tribalist moron
Seething millenialtard
Take careful example of this ape , he is unable to comprehend the statement, so he grasps at straws to find a way to fit me into a label, this would work , if i too was a moronic ape who believed this grift.
>Take careful example of this ape , he is unable to comprehend the statement, so he grasps at straws to find a way to fit me into a label, this would work , if i too was a moronic ape who believed this grift.
Death Stranding is played for the gameplay. No one likes the story.
TLou and Death Stranding filters zoomies and gen alpha queers.
rage 2 was fun
now that the thread will autosage soon
Who /millennialwithbabyboomerandearlygenxparents/ here?
I was born to hate.
Gen z begins with the year 1995. None of you were cognitive for 9/11 and that makes you subhuman. Cope and cry.
not a zoomer but I can actually remember random shit I saw/did at 4 years old, so telling people they have recollection of being 6 is a stretch. '97 is the first zoomer year for this reason, as it means they have no recollection of the 20th century.
most people have few memories before age 10
idk i remember most of the 90s but i dont remember a lot of the 00s but it's anecdotal and not indicative of most people which is just a weasel word
1996-1999 Is the Zoomer Mellow age group. They're either quiet, working full time / 2 jobs, hate their parents, hate the economy now that they're slung into adult responsibilities, and are almost always pro-choice.
Yup. Millenials seething as typical. Zoomers and Boomers just stay winning while you middle of the road axe-wound-between-the-legs homosexual Millenials continue to cry and piss your pants cause nobody buys your art tard snooze cruize of a game.
Zoomers are the ones that doubled down on the troon meme. Millennials are just got the ball rolling.
>B-BUT LE ZOOMAHS-
Nope. Zoomers actually don't like trans people. They may not be vocal about it but they sure as hell aren't comfortable with it. The only trannies or trans supporters in Gen Z are an incredibly small minority who were risen by pozzed Millennial parents and they are often bullied in the school and work place by regular zoomers. Simply put, you started, and are still currently the problem you dumb millennial homosexual. Most trannies are 25+ years old because they're just the typical millenial freak.
20% of zoomers are trannies and gays
>muh zoomers are 20% lgbt clickbait statistic
All women claiming to be bisexual or "pansexual" because they think it's quirky. Meanwhile you see every mid 30s millennial loser trooning out these days.
Me on the right
Benjamin Franklin looking ass
I already said millennials have this as their main culture, but zoomers doubled down on it. I explained the reason for this is because the internet is now centralized, and all the big platforms now censor anything critical of this shit. As a result of this censorship, zoomers never hear contrary opinions in regards to these ideas, and if they do, they see how people who speak up are met with horrible consequences.
Zoomers will be even worse than millennials, and alpha will literally be pic related. The centralization of the internet means its game over culturally. This shit has no counter to it, and has no way it can be knocked off its pedestal. Reddit and twitter are heavily guarded centers for culture and will vigilantly seek out and destroy any counter currents.
Nah, you're a doomer and you talk like gay.
I was told this in 2016 when the deplatforming began. The cultural opposition at the time thought because Trump won the election that it meant things were turning around and that the "tumblr" culture was on its last legs or in the beginning of decline.
Most rightists in general are unable to take a realist look at situations, and when they do they assume somehow things magically will be restored if some hero on a white horse will come in out of nowhere and magically fix everything.
The truth is that something entirely new is going to be needed, but without high iq human capital or highly creative people, it can never never manifest to begin with. Just look at how quickly the counterculture from 2014 to 2017 waned after censorship. Its now almost gone from the mainstream.
I literally saw a zeitgeist zealot gloat that deplatforming and censorship works.
You yourself are engaging in the identity politics that marks this age's zeitgeist, with the black and white view that "all zoomers are based, and all millennials are pozzed." The unfortunate truth is that the millennials that believe wholeheartedly in the zeitgeist are the ones with cultural, economic, and social power, while the ones that reject it are largely on the margins.
With zoomers, them accepting the woke/sjw/radlib dogmas even more than millennials was due to how the internet ecosystem was after 2017. There is a reason why early zoomers seem to have more heterodox among them than late zoomers.
I mean to post this when I said Gen Alpha will be pic-related. They are the first generation born with a smart device handed to them before they could even read or talk.
This is literally untrue. Zoomers accept trannies like no other generation, you can literally get the shit beaten out of you in high schools not for being a troony, but for misgendering one.
>millennials now resorting to lies to protect themselves
We aren't your "allies" you disgusting troon freaks. You are outcasts.
>THERE'S TONS OF TRANS PEOPLE JUST LIKE M-ME!
>TRANSFOLX COULD EASILY B-BEAT YOU UP IF YOU MISGENDER THEM!!!
Yup. Pure, unadultured homosexualry. Millenials really have lost it. Years of being ass raped with Boomer and Zoomer superiority has made them insane!
>BLAH BLAH BLAH BAIT
Got it. Bye.
Millenial who isn't a history revisionist here. You're right, and zoomers will save us.
Listen man, I admitted this shit started with the millennials on tumblr in the early 2010's, and really spiraled out of control when most opposition to that culture got deplatformed or algorithmically censored after 2016. It was just a matter of the ecosystem zoomers found themselves in culturally. The contrary voices to to it basically disappeared from the mainstream unless you explicitly looked for overtly right or right leaning voices. Ganker in general was also very neutered and a shadow of its former self. It used to do raids on tumblr and coordinate meme campaigns against the zeitgeist. I am not sure you know just how much has changed since 2014 to 2017. The opposition to that culture is now relegated just to this site, where opposition is not even uniform, and boomers.
He's either baiting you or literally doesn't go outside. Just ignore him.
Shut up gay. At least be smart like the few millenials you have like this guy
and admit that you're just a seething troon. Zoomers are not your "friends". We never were. Go into any high school outside the west coast of America and you'll realize that troons are seen as freaks and weirdos.
>troon gets attacked and flag binned
>students laughing and jeering
>pride flag gets thrown off a bridge
>everyone claps and cheers
>"B-BUT THEY B-BEAT THOSE CIS MEN UP LATER OR SOMETHING!"
You. Are. Done. You've lost!
Most pics of troons you see these days are 25+ year old men because most trannies are MILLENNIALS you delusional freaks.
>posts two based zoomers
>ALL OF THEM ARE LIKE THIS I PROMISE!!!
Sure, kid. Whatever you say.
>J-JUST IGNORE ALL THE PEOPLE LAUGHING AND CHEERING! IT'S NOT LIKE THIS ELSEWHERE- OUR ZOOMER troony FRIENDS ARE WITH US!!!
You are alone. You are outcasts. Everybody hates you you disgusting trannoid freak. Millennials are scum and have ruined this country. Every homosexual marching in BLM riots. Every speedrunning troony freak. Every homosexual parading in a march. They are all 25 and up while every non trannoid millennial just watches it and ignores it cause they're scared.
>Everybody hates you you disgusting trannoid freak.
Is the troony in the room with you right now, anon?
>resorts to by-the-book troony one liners
Yep. Nice job outing yourself. Just stop replying. It's obvious you don't have the energy to compete with Gen Z and any further comments just solidify yourself as a moronic troon.
>continues shizo rambling.
That's nice.
That's it. I'm fricking done with this site. At least on Reddit you don't get fricking witchhunted like this and shit on just for being who you are. Bye, shithead.
>Samegayging
LMAO, take the L my man.
>I-IT'S JUST HIMSELF WE CAN'T BE FRICKING LOSING LIKE THIS!!!!!!
Why are you still replying. Every time you just make yourself look like a joke.
>He doesn't know how to ID samegays
lmao, just stop coping
Nice samegayging, very stable behavior.
You’re close to the truth. Being far right is now the counterculture. Parents, teachers and corporations want globohomo, so rebellious kids don’t want it. It’s that simple.
>Zoomers want to be cool like their cool Gen X parents
>Millennials want to be homosexuals like their homosexual Boomer parents
Millennial here, this is all wrong. I prefer action games, shmups, rhythm games, anything that's hard but fair. Frick movie games, frick every game on the left side of this gay pic, I value gameplay above everything. (then visual style and music just slightly below in importance)
. here, as for music being less important than gameplay in the rhythm game department, I need to like the music first, but if the interface is garbage (just like every single Love Live game out there) then I will delete it from my library instantly.
zoomers are 100x more woke than millennials. only tumblr sjw weirdo millennials are woke, the vast majority of zoomers are woke
With that gay-ass haircut, they'd better be.
I'm literally on the first year of being gen z and I fit that definition perfectly, woke millenials have ruined everything and they should be purged from the face of earth before a third world war erupts.
Thanks millenials!
I'm counting on you zoomers to do the right thing. My generation might be full of shit and gays but yours doesn't have to be
>waifu thread bad
>culture war and fap threads good
This is why people go out of their way to shitpost on Ganker.
>All these Millennials larping as Zoomers baiting other Millennials
Anon, people born in late 2003 can browse Ganker now. Gen Z began in 1997.
I was born in 1990 so I'm technically millenial for a couple of years and I have NEVER touched any of the shit on the millenial side.
>nu-saints row
>millenial
what
Yeah, bunch of 30 year old homosexuals made it
there are morons in both camps but much more in gen x and z. if this wasn't true then roblox and fortnite wouldn't be the most popular things on the planet.
moronic generation vs generation thread
Don't you realize the world how it is now is every generation's fault?
I ain't done shit moron
Of course, with "every generation" I'm generalizing, thus it doesn't mean every single person is guilty but that the fault is collective.
Exactly
1994 Millenial here
Grew up on half life 2, halo OG trilogy, mass effect OG trilogy, Dragon age, pokemon, and more
I hate woke shit and social media
Not all millennials deserve the hate, but I can see how they killed gaming
I can't think of the next vidya I'm actually excited for
Maybe the new Fable
