Imagine actually navigating pol and telling people whey should and shouldnt post like its some kind of proer social forum . Its Ganker c**t frick up
Imagine actively ruining the quality of the board like it's a virtuous thing. Frick off newbie.
imagine this board ever having quality
yeah. I miss it.
It did, but it was long ago. Ron Paul and Travon Martin times were great.
I'm sure we've all done that at one point or another. I would say there's something wrong with anyone who browses here and doesn't get angry at all lel.
This board has been cancer since stormfront invaded and never left.
The only good threads are the flat earth ones and the janny seems to shit himself when someone mentions it.
I disagee with you on the stormfront boogieman. But flat earth threads are interesting. I give you a D- on your assessment.

You are a failed experiment.
Excessive video game usage has been associated with several potential negative effects. Prolonged gaming sessions can contribute to physical health issues such as obesity and muscle stiffness, while disrupting sleep patterns and leading to fatigue. Social isolation may result from prioritizing gaming over face-to-face interactions, potentially causing withdrawal from social activities. Academic and occupational problems can arise when gaming takes precedence over responsibilities. Some studies suggest a correlation between violent video games and increased aggressive behavior, though the causal relationship is debated. Addiction and compulsive gaming behaviors may lead individuals to prioritize gaming over essential activities. Additionally, impaired cognitive functions, financial consequences from in-game purchases, and the risk of neglecting real-world responsibilities are among the potential drawbacks associated with excessive video game use. It's essential to note that these effects vary based on individual factors, and responsible gaming practices, moderation, and awareness can help mitigate these potential negative impacts.
So?
>muh violent video games
kys
just go for a walk every hour. why would you want to socialise face to face with normies anyway.
>why would you want to socialise face to face with normies anyway
This. 99% of the people are so shallow and fragile and entitled. Like you are surrounded with dumb kids.
I'll care when society is better than shitty games.
>realizes video games are an escape from society for a large demographic of usually productive men
>how do we fix them
this is why we stay inside and play video games, you homosexuals don’t even understand the problem your trying to fix
Sounds exactly like working in a damn cubicle
I played helldivers for 6 hours today. I dead lift more than you and I have and am currently in a relationship with a women way out of your league.
Chatgpt response you fricking idiots
>But 8 hours a day on a tiny screen that literally emits radiation is fine, goy c:^)
Because working for nothing is stupid.
The the SWEAT Pledge, goyim
This. If working full time doesn't pay enough for a minimally acceptable quality of life, then literally what reason is there to work?
>inb4 buy less avocado toast
>inb4 you whippersnappers are lucky to have LE IPHONES XD
Quality of life is determined by basics like paying for housing, not by """""luxury"""" flashing toys that roll over the Chinese assembly lines next to the suicide nets.

Because the buttfricking nazis in this country make me want to move to Russia
Better question is what are they playing, because it's hard to find anything good.
Gloomwood.
Isn't that the truth. I haven't touched steam in nearly a month because there's just nothing to play. The only thing that seems somewhat fun is the Cyberpunk DLC, which I haven't bought yet because I don't want to spend money on it.
It's not very good. You're not missing anything.
The new pirate game sounds perfect for you
if your old brain is solidified already
Dopamine resistance detected.
Monster Hunter
Call me a gay but Disney dreamlight valley is pretty cute and strangely addicting. I’ve been playing it a ton
SnowRunner
The same old games, over and over again.
rust
Vintage Story
Wildlands
I play a lot of Ultimate admiral: Dreadnoughts, but it's pretty fricking niche.
oldgays cant enjoy vidya anymore
you have to go in a deep week long dopamine detox to enjoy video games again
Just play old games, every time I get too sick of the new shit I re-install morrowind or new vegas.
I'm 41 and playing more than ever.
I like Enlisted. I also played BG3 for like a month straight when I got it.
I play shellshock live
Tekken 8 lil homie
I just finished super mario wonder, shin megami tensei V, resident evil 7+8. Next is the metro trilogy and system shock remake.
no pussy
no work
Helldivers is pretty fun bros.
playing witcher 3 and wow vanilla atm. i gank noobs on my rogue while listening to yt videos. i thought about buying helldivers but now theres a flood of bad reviews.
I think just because the matchmaking is bungled and servers are at capacity dont think they expected this many people . good youtube shooter though , I like to listen to manly p hall lectures while I play
I just can't into online multiplayer games. I don't want to socialize, not even online.
Ya fun not being able.to log in for over 3 days lmao
This is why I never get a game close to release. I wait at least 2 months, usually a year or more.
Which videogame are they playing anyways?
Age of Empires (3?) Rn. The one with the Normans and the rise of Moscow
Terraria
Why prop up a terrible degenerate society?
I work and play N64 cause modern games suck ass.
I stopped enjoying games post Xbox360 era, even if they remake the classics it will never truly be like they were back in the peak (take modern warfare 2 as example)
what society.
I thought this was India for the first few seconds.
Because it's cheap. People can't afford to go out all the time and the amount of 3rd places where you can go for free is dwindling.
because society is fake and gay, also are visual novels games or not?
I'm 34. I worked hard, I invested wisely, I stuck close to friends and family. The money never came, and investments never paid off.
A fricking car down-payment now costs as much as what used to be on a down-payment of a house. I already went through the Obama great recession and stagflation, but now it's even more pathetic with Covid shutting down the economy for what was essentially just the flu that they made in a Chink lab and putting a dementia-ridden moron as an empty suit at the helm afterwards.
I'm fricking sick of grinding irl. At least in a game I can shoot someone back.
Should've invested in a house lol
Not that easy, moron
>find house
>buy house
>own house
wow that was hard
It never even began for zoomers and millenials + zillenials
Boomers lived it up and squandered our future, and they're mocking us for it to add insult to injury
because video games are fun 🙂
society is not and just demands, demands, and demands.
Because most people are judgmental buttholes.

Who is opposing this moron???
Spent my teens smoking weed and playing videogames with my friends, and in my twenties I realized how much time I had wasted playing videogames instead of doing something productive so I quit gaming.
Now I have a wife, a job and a bunch of other responsibilities and the only thing I regret is not having spent more time playing videogames and smoking weed with my friends while I could.
Lost so much fricking time on pointless stuff like trying to get sex or trying to learn stupid "hobbies" that led to nowhere that I might as well used it to have fun.
Amen except there are cool useful hobbies.
Kind of funny. Each time I give up a drug and "try to work on myself," and do "adult things," at the end of the day it got me as far as just fricking off.
What difference to anyone does it make if you work hard and nobody notices, or if you do nothing and nobody notices?
This is the main problem. The system is corrupt to such a point that upward mobility has diminished for all but a few. Until this is restored, its all down hill.from here.

I'm 34, dropped out in 6th grade. You guys are all just late to the party.

I would set that little niglet in his room in front of his TV and absolutely destroy his mother so ridiculously frequently she begins to neglect him and leaves the home as a feral in search of food. Then I would leave her ass in search of my next niglet breeder.

WHAT'S THE FRICKING POINT?
YOU CAN'T EVEN PLAY FOR POINTS ANY MORE!
WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU GOT POINTS IN A VIDEO GAME?
WAKE THE FRICK UP!
NOTHING IS REAL ANYMORE AND EVERYTHING SUCKS!
Man, you can play Galaxian any time you want.
NO, I WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE YOUR BIG TITTY WIZARD GAMES YA'LL LIKE SO MUCH!
That's what the 1980s comic books and posters are for.
It's an efficient use of resources.
What society?
i love vidya
men should be making their own videogames
Vidya makes you feel like you're the one in control, compare that to the uncertainty of life and the fact that most hardcore users aren't that invested in other areas of life besides gaming.
this. there's an old playstation ad which nails it perfectly (and it's quite dark when you think about it). i'm sorry i can't find it anymore.
Stop making this thread. Stop replying to this thread. FOR FRICK SAKES GUYS IT'S BEEN 3 YEARS OF THIS SPAM, FRICKING STOP.
it's been way more than 3 years newbie, the only thing fun now is responding to bot threads, leave us be
"us?" Shut the frick up moron
Yeah, all the idiots in here, Black person
>I'm a useful idiot and happy about it!
Show me the important thread that is oh so urgent that you feel the need to spend your time doing this, oh right, you Black folk never do, have a nice day
Maybe if there were less of this, there would be more of that? Use your brain dude. Board is better off slow than shit.
Nope. have a nice day
no you homosexual.
It's not like there's anything else to talk about, and this is actually an important topic. Sorry if I don't want to discuss two shithole European countries endlessly fighting each other.
it's not an important topic at all, it's been rehashed ad-Infinium for the better part of 5 years, go to the archive if you want to read up. at one point it might have been at this point it's me making the thread on Ganker "subtle Simpsons jokes you missed when you were young" Just shut the frick up dude. we all get it at this point. This is literally the worst thread on /misc/ right now.
You just want the board slow and uninteresting to push people away. I know your game sagegays.
The opposite is true. I want the board to be slower and more interesting. They don't have to hold hands with each other, and maybe a dopamine addicted homosexual who needs
>new useless thread
>new useless thread
Isn't the type of person who should be browsing this website. Have you heard of YT shorts? maybe you should check them out.
Nah, that's ok, I much prefer having like 15 threads open and shitposting all damn day, 21+ hours a day
99% of people who you "shitpost" with all day despise what you are doing to what used to be a pretty decent forum. You will never be apart of this boards culture.
Bitch, I've been here since before you even heard of Ganker, I have shitposted forever, "apart" of this board, what the frick you think this is some gay ass little "community"?
Yeah, no. sorry. I'm much older than you are.
Lol you'll never be successful and you'll always be a Black person. Go back to your discord troony.
>I'm using the LIIIIIINGOOOOOO
>I'm a part of something!!!!
>I'm not ruining anything !!!!!!
>we all get it at this point
Obviously not since you still have morons on here actively participating in society.
This isn't society and nobody ITT is participating in the OP. It's a "what are good video games thread." and it's not fricking political.
>This isn't society and nobody ITT is participating in the OP
I was talking about this website as a whole
Then you should've stopped your green text at society when quoting me you fricking moron because I addressed that point literally in the the post you quoted. Holy shit maybe you are all better in "containment" threads where you squak the same thing at each other for years and years and years. It's really embarrassing for you to try to defend this shit dude. What exactly is your stance? That we should just make the same threads every single day? participate in the same threads every single day? I bet you get a HEARTY chuckle any time you read
>X just flew over my house
or you read
>Lmao you pathetic racists never fail to make me laugh with your...
You have to go back.
I have no idea why you're absolutely seething so hard in the first place. If it really bugs you that much just hide the thread, put a filter on, report it, and talk to the mods in the IRC channel about it you spergy tard.
>That we should just make the same threads every single day? participate in the same threads every single day?
Like I said before, there's nothing else better to talk about. And if you think there is, go ahead and make a thread about it and have your supreme intelligent discussion in it.
I'm telling you that you are ruining the board. That's the end of it. I don't understand why you're coping so hard! hahaha owned I used the lingo! I already have a thread open that I'm the OP of that is more on topic and has more traction than this piece of shit does.
If there's nothing else to talk about, maybe shut the frick up and go to bed? maybe kiss your girlfriend or wife? maybe set your clothes out for work tomorrow? maybe sweep your kitchen? maybe... etc. Off topic, but do you have an entire folder of Tony Soprano reaction images? Holy shit that's embarrassing.
>I already have a thread open that I'm the OP of that is more on topic and has more traction than this piece of shit does.
I'm sure you do Anon, I'm sure you do.
>If there's nothing else to talk about, maybe shut the frick up and go to bed?
I don't want to. Shitposting is fun.
>Off topic, but do you have an entire folder of Tony Soprano reaction images?
Nah, just that one. I do have a bunch of Saul Goodman ones, however.
>I don't want to
Fair
>nah just that one
Saul goodman is much better for reaction images, I approve, if you could drop the "adding this to my cringe collection" picture I would like it.
I don't really like you man, I've said my piece and I think you understand where I'm coming from. I'm not insane for thinking this. most of the board agrees with me.
heh knew that would get you. I could link literally any thread in the catalog and you wouldn't know if it was mine moron. That's sort of the entire point of the website.
Easy, all you'd have to do is screenshot before making it and post pic but you wont do that either.
Who the frick screen shots a thread after they make it you absolute fricking moron? You're drunk dude go to bed.
I said before, you know, to prove you were the one making it, but your just trying to ruin the board now denounce the talmud
So you want me to make a NEW thread to prove some fricking point to you?
I make a thread every once in a while when I feel like something political should be discussed that isn't currently being discussed on the board already (kind of rare honestly). Today was the case. (see if you can find it by the way, the OP uses the same sort of cadence that I do.)
Yes.
Well sorry, that's gonna be a 'no' from me buddy.
Look below, all you whining and you still couldn't kill the thread and I didn't even have to be here. Other people are interested and joined in. I have figured out your game sagegay, this is part of the tactic of making the board uninteresting because you know everyone is dopamine addicted and if it slows down enough everyone will leave and you would win. have a nice day.
You don't even understand the function of sage dude you are a newbie. Other newbies who are participating in this also need to go back
also I think you are a bot.
Beep Boop Black person.
Yeah confirmed bot thread.
Unfortunately I do not seem to have that image so I'll provide this one instead
>I don't really like you man, I've said my piece and I think you understand where I'm coming from.
I'm used to that. Most people on here don't seem to like each other so it's okay. I can also understand where you're coming from but it does seem like a tad bit of an overreaction.
The anger builds over time to the point where I have to go into one of these threads and completely derail it. I'm not angry, despite how my words read. It's just the only way to communicate with you guys.
But you won't link it because you're a Black person.
See, sagegay exposed, he wants you anywhere but here.
Your seethe across the board is palpable, namehomosexual. Go eat society's dick.
all men need is video games, weed and brojobs
Mass deportations would solve this
I always advocate for this and all the brown people show up in the threads to defend their illegal adventures
Because it's worth more than what society has to offer
>80% of men aren't having sex while most women are
>most beginner jobs don't pay enough to be able to afford rent and food, assuming you can even get the job and aren't passed over due to DEI
>media constantly shitting on you for bullshit reasons that have no basis in reality
>your income tax would just go to subsidize lazy ass turd worlders
Au contraire, it's you who should find a compelling reason to tell them why they should find a job under these conditions

>why are men dropping out of society and playing video games?
- men do not want to get married anymore because of feminism.
- the government do not care about men.
This feminism ruined the idea of women for me. I still wanna date and go out with them but that stuff is so exhausting to deal with it makes me not care like I used to about them and it sucks
I can't be into people that already hate me. Feels unnatural and awful
Canary in the Coal Mines, Society is about to drop completely
why AREN'T men dropping out of society and playing video games?
Simplest answer: Woman and their entitlements.
Long answer: Woman and SJWs yapping their shit on everything they deemed "not suitable" to their so-called "moral standards". Also, the rise of single mothers and capitalists company tried their best to push the female propaganda shits that women started to entitle themselves as God or some shit, then proceeding to ruin literally every good thing we have. The only safe space we have left it in our own comfort in the house.
Because society treats men like dirt.
It's not Indian heroes dropping out or Russian tough guys
It's onions boy, skirt wearing western fairy boys going down hill...
Leave us Hindu gurus out of your degeneracy
They’re just made because in the past it cost $0.25 to play video games. Now you can play at house
If you don't win at least 35% of the time, you give up.
Because men prefer the following scenario:
>there are rules, like the rules to a game
>following the rules and performing well within that framework gets rewarded
>failure does not get rewarded, but thanks to the rules you know how to improve and succeed, too
That's basically how video games work.
Now look at reality
>rules primarily exist to frick you over, many of them ask you to do the exact opposite of what you should do, the real rules cannot be found anywhere since none exist
>following the rules does not get you rewarded, it gets you fricked over, because see point 1
>the biggest failures like women, Black folk and so on get rewarded no matter how poorly they perform - they can even double down on their failures and still get a reward for it
>Because men prefer the following scenario:
are rules, like the rules to a game
the rules and performing well within that framework gets rewarded
does not get rewarded, but thanks to the rules you know how to improve and succeed, too
Obedient beta males with no game. Get vaxxed and masked and kneel for your refugee masters rule following b***h.
LMAO
If playing games is loser behaviour, society ranks lower than that
What is there even to play? Outside of discord trannies and Zoomer/Gen Alpha homosexuals why would you even own a steam account anymore given its all dogshit. Thanks god they suck ass so most median age adults move the frick on.
Thats 2024 top charts vs 2007 for reference
>Oh noes muh vidya
I played CK3 for 5 hours today before work. Its not hard to have a job and be addicted to games.
Provide reasons to "drop in" to this ~~*society*~~.
Otherwise, they will continue to game and goon.
i don't play videogames
>that guy who says he doesn't jerk off.
They realise they have no chance with girls due to dating apps
This is way more important than all the cope about housing prices etc
Too much charity.
Because women don't need them because they are married to the government. And they are no longer allowed to multiply and have control over their children. Society mocks them and shits on them all day long. The ancient warriors, builders and protectors of history have no role in this feminist society.
I'm buying cars and either breaking them for profit or fixing them and selling them on
I'm not working for some rich israelite c**t and nobody can tell me what to do
the best part is I'm happy
games are just to wind down
to follow up on this do we have any based command and conquer or age of empires players in the thread
if so what's your favourite faction or civ from each game
What's the incentive for men to be in society in the 2020s?
There is none and we all know it
because working won't get you a home, women are all prostitutes ie not mother material - there's no point in actively contributing to a system which does everything in its power to work against you
because vidya doesn't care who I am, and I'm a huge fricking moron
stop answering these threads you masochists. Remember to use spices on this rotten old meat
Why the frick wouldn't we? What has society offered us? What has society been telling us? What has society done for the men who came before us? We've seen our dads and uncles and best friends get divorce raped. We've seen wagies get fired from companies the day before they would have received their pensions. We've noticed how prices continue to go up while wages have been mostly stagnate. We're not stupid, offer us a better deal, one that includes land, houses, and the ability to keep wives who won't be able to divorce us on a whim and take half our stuff. Yes that means we will have to own them and they will have to be submissive to us and we prefer that they will be young and virgins too. If you roasties don't like it you can cope and seethe and continue to wage slave until you die to pay for our NEET bux.
work for what? the chance to have a prostitute settle down with you after she realized chads no longer give her the time of day and then have her hold a grudge against you forever because you'' never be the chad she wanted?
no virgin pussy, no work.
