Gaming is unironically dead.
Its not the same anymore, there's no more "worlds" because the tech isn't any more advanced than it was in 2009.
VR sucks balls, and barely any companies aside from maybe Valve are putting money into its development, Alyx was a tech demo.
The games with the best graphics this generation were all PS4 movie games made by unlucky film industry postgrads.
Videogames used to cause so much social and political controversy - now they are totally controlled and push the same agenda as TV and Hollywood.
Videogames are now just entertainment product to be consumed by normalfags, and you're still fucking buying them.
Explain yourself. Now.
Why don't people talk in game lobbies anymore?

They started banning and taking your games away for saying bad words.

Ever since games started adding the ability to mute everyone and hide chats I've never looked back.
play wow. people in guilds talk way too fucking much
because since server browsers died every lobby is filled with BRs, filipinos, chinese, russians and screaming kids.
when server browsers were a thing you usually had the same chill ppl about your age on at the same time every night .
thanks to e-sports even the most casual fucking games all have to tryhard with competitive online ranking bullshit.
like fuck, i just want to crack open a beer and left click some bad guys after work.
>why don't people talk in game lobbies anymore?
Party chat and autism.
For me, it's Ghost.
Sorry user, I don't like how silent everyone is now either, but I have my own issues to iron out first. I think I've been getting back to being more outspoken again but it will till be some time before I can help remedy that problem.
when people to talk it's always memes and injokes and all that dumb shit, feels like you need to pretend to be having 10x as much fun as you're actually having, it's honestly exhausting so i don't bother
because we aren't your friend simulator
get on a discord with mates, they are the people you talk to
people don't wanna chat with creepy pedo strangers anymore
Because lobbies are filled with literal robot kids and I cant scoot down to their level
I used to talk all the time but I've been banned from every game imaginable for racism. On CS GO I play as a "Treygone Martin" and had all these racist chat binds but now I'm permanently muted forever, I have 2k hours in the fucking game and can't chat anymore, shit's mega gay, I've been banned from Bannerlord, most ridiculous ban for racism I ever got was in Gran Turismo Sport, I put livery stickers on my teggy that spelled NIGGER and was griefing some truck fag who reported me and got my whole PSN suspended for a week

VR filtering out ESL third-worlders and other subhuman trash unironically makes it the best place to cultivate old-school community full of educated white people.
Im an autist so i dont like to speak with randoms
Also chances are they have nothing worthwhile to say anyway
>say no-no words when a faggot happens to be in the same lobby
>lose £60
nah im good
Everyone is unironically scared of having their account banned and game stolen, so they talk in discord to people they already know
i think this is part of why i dont enjoy games nearly as much nowadays
CSGO is e-sport trash filled with sweaty fags instead of the fun shit talking of past titles
Also thanks for killing community servers, no more deathrun or RPG surf or bhop
>social
Why the fuck should I want to talk to compkete strangers huh? I've come to play a game not for chat
>get on COD4 modern warfare on 360 for the hell of it
>people are still baffled to see a tenth prestige gold cross in a 13 years old COD and started called me a no lifer

I dont play new games anymore. 100% normified.
I only play old games and speedrun them, since that autistic shit is better than modern games.
because there's always some frogshit posting subhuman like you, don't talk to me you trash I'm gonna mute you the second the game starts anyways
Trannies you mean.
