I grew up with all generations, and played every game when it was new. AMA
when I was young I played everything and anything. Now I only play certain and very specific games.
This is a shallow, but somewhat true observation that misses the mark. Conservatism increases as we age for a variety of reasons. First and most prominently is the way our brains learn, we learn to do something one way and our brains lock that in, and overwriting it can be extremely difficult. Cognitive dissonance can even make it PHYSICALLY PAINFUL to change your mind about something.
Additionally, people have traditionally become more conservative because they have more, and have more to lose, and have a greater stake in the state of matters as-they-are. How this relates to wealth is - if you have nothing, and gain nothing, there is less reason for you to be conservative. Tie this to the general decrease in the uptick in personal wealth correlated to production (more people aren't making more money to coincide with the increase in wealth, overall) and it stands to reason that a less successful generation will have less incentive to be and therefore less inclination to be conservative.
Anyway to answer your fucking question, yeah - I used to be able to bury myself in JRPG's for hours on end, now my autism has shifted focus to 4x games. I also have less time over all to play, and will often feel too tired to get involved in games, so i'm choosier about what I play when.
No, not really. I kind of stopped gaming after comeptitive CS died in 2010.. and now I'm back playing Valorant. I literally just play Diablo 2 and CS still, even at 27.
>female
Opinion: worthless.
Not really. I keep coming back to the things I like. City Builders and 4x games. The thing that changed is I'm playing increasingly more complex games.
Of course but thats because games change, not my taste in them. Playing Spyro remake was the most fun I had in years
Taste not really, but I don't enjoy it as much anymore and I play a lot less since I'm too tired most of the time.
Yeah I used to play WWE wrestling and madden as a kid
Not really. The only thing I don't really do anymore is play multiplayer games because I genuinely don't like them, or at least the multiplayer games I tend to like either get shit on by the devs or the game completely dies because not enough people play it.
good post
Literally who
I've only gotten progressively poorer and more conservative as I've gotten older.
Because the leftists are only about giving money to subhumans who want to destroy our country and culture.
>you: why don't women like me? I have a job, I look better than that fatty with a 8/10, why don't I have a girlfriend?
>also you:Women are mindless animals not worth anything outside of me having sex with them
hmmmmm
>I grew up with all generations
>N64 was the start of recorded history
Fucking hang yourself, worthless zoomer.
>I'm liberal because I want money but don't have it
are these type the fake gamer girls of the left?
>me: Fuck women
>also me: fuck niggers and jannies too
nah
Not really. My taste in genres remains unchanged for about 18 years or so since i first started playing PC games
i guess we can have a flat tax at the current highest marginal rate and the poor should like this
>we learn to do something one way and our brains lock that in, and overwriting it can be extremely difficult
That doesn't make sense though, becoming conservative as you age is not meant as solidifying your youth beliefs but changing.
If a boomer hippy becomes conservative it's meant as they're not a hippy anymore.
the cut your nose to spite your face tactic, very clever
Only by necessity. I grew up loving adventure games but those were dead before I was even 20. I really enjoyed the phase of non-Nintendo platformers like the first R&C and Jak. Those died. I liked open world games a lot until they got too bloated. So on and so forth.
But I like a good shooter now as much as when I first played Doom or Unreal. I like RPGs better now with more action oriented gameplay. I liked JRPGs until they got stagnant and started using sparks everywhere as an excuse to not have a story.
The one real change is I don't like any MP anymore but I blame that on the focus shifting heavily. And that applies to shooters, MMOs and even strategy games. I haven't liked one since probably 2006 or so.
>Twitter screencap shite
>"Hurr but I put Vidya in the OP so it's ok durr"
Fucking end yourself
I had a lot more patience for JRPGs as a kid, as my reflexs got better and I grew more to care about exploration and playing at faster pace.
Cope boomer
>inequality continues to increase
>"It's the twitter leftists!"
don't read too much into it that user is a pseud and not worth debating
based and redpilled
Not changed but expanded
You: based
Your age is not the problem, but "I grew up with all generations, AMA" is fucking self centered garbage when you're not even listing any of the 2d home consoles.
yes. people that devalue labor through immigration and outsourcing are why inequality increases.
no i've always had good taste
>it hurt itself in its confusion
literally nobody cares except for your seething boomer ass, get corona and die
>If a boomer hippy becomes conservative it's meant as they're not a hippy anymore.
Conservative can mean a lot of things. In the context of "Conservative" as a political label for the right, yes you are correct. It should be note the people who "set the rule" for becoming conservative as you aged were the fucking Boomers, who had their fling with drugs and liberalism and then quickly turned to other things as they got older. The Boomers, of course thinking everything revolves around them, thinks every generation before and every generation after shall function the same way
In a nutshell, the more comfortable you are in life the more liberal you tend to be. The less comfortable in life you are the more conservative you are.
>culture
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>people that devalue labor through immigration and outsourcing
So billionaires then
You mean capitalists? lmao
I gotten to be less conservative and.just more anti-liberal
Is that true? I would imagine it would be the opposite
>fatty with a gf
>fatty with a 8/10 gf
Maximum fatboy cope lmao.
>became less focused on graphic fidelity
>more focused on story
I was a doom/quake arena kid but lately Im into more story driven games. I used to habitually skip cutscenes.
>NES and PC
>SNES and PC
>N64
>Xbox
>Xbox 360 and PC
>PC only
>PS4pro and PC
PS4 is now mostly a netflix machine.
your problem here is misidentifying people
anti-war bankers from the vietnam era were never hippies. nearly no one was a hippy.
Why would you blame leftists for outsourcing and immigration when they have had no control over government?
Blame the neocons and neolibs who actually implement and maintain the policy you so dislike.
Before the wealthy divide and conquered everyone with idpol crap immigration was not some unanimous thing.
Not really, conservatism as an ideology is basically fear of things you aren't familiar with
The bourgeoisie?
It's not the right calling for open borders and endless migration
>inequality
Who gives a shit. The quality of life keeps rising even for poor people, that's all that matters.
>shitpost
>get called out on it
>"like, nobody cares anywayyyy shut uuuuup"
I hope you slip and split your skull during your next TikTok filming session, cunt.
no one cares you worthless brain damaged retard
No they just do it behind your back instead, conservatives are so fucking gullible, none of you have a clue
can we just have socialism with closed borders and no gay shit
>heh you mean like national socialism
yeah
yes. the capitalists that pretend they are "leftists" but think they benefit from foreign slaves so instead focus on "increasing standards of living the global south" and come up with cool jokes like "you mean we should combine nationalism with socialism??????"
i don't always screech at twitter screencap threads but this is LITERALLY not vidya. reported
Conservative as used here means the political label, support for status quo, etc. It doesn't mean a more fixed personality.
If someone was outside the norm in their 20s [hippy, anarchist, etc] and they are still that in their 50s nobody would say their conservative.
The actual proportion doesn't matter, it's just an example.
Nobody would describe a 50 year old hippy as a conservative.
No. I grew up with NES games and I still prefer them over new games.
Ah yes all those mentally ill trannies with dyed hair and high suicide rates are comfortable in life
Good thing there are still nice guys like (You), eh?
It is true, if you read the Hidden Tribes Report far left progressives have the highest socio-economic status of all political demographics and the highest sense of personal safety
Try posting something less retarded next time
Based
If Republicans care so much about immigration why do they never push for worker verification?
When will you wake up and realize none of them give a shit about you?
you will never be white pajeet, no matter how hard you try
no, I don't think vidya taste is like music taste you grow out of,
I like all games I liked as a child
except now I like different genres too, but I loved my rpgs and I still love my rpgs
Well to be fair, they are all insufferably middle class/rich white kids who always got what they wanted when they cried hard enough from their single mother.
>why blame the people that operate all of the migrant ngos because they think it helps them electorally at the expense of the poorest natives
real mystery
