Both wrong. The best games were made in between 2002 and 2016.

Not all of them. Elden Ring, KCD, RDR and many others shit on your super mario and sonic or whatever the fuck you people play

No I meant like, better for humans. Do you tie your happiness to an abstract concept of "progress"?

shut up zoomers, shut the fuck off about your chads and staceys, they also existed long before you were ever born

Imagine only having your high school as your dating pool, where every girl decided you weren't cool enough on the first week on 7th grade. The internet gives nerds and loners every opportunity under the sun to reinvent their image and meet girls from all over.

doesn't have to be dating apps either, I ironically never used any dating apps it was always social media and messaging apps and chat rooms and other online venues.

>>510815054
stop buying triple A slop then, not even saying that video games were better back then there was infinite amounts of shovelware and just unfinished games, there's loads of great games in modern times.

I hate all of those things, medicine should only go as far as setting bones and handing out penicillin. ai is kinda neat but uts a massive propaganda tool thats going to be as much a disaster as the printing press, radio, tv, and the Internet have been. seriously cgi? your really that impressed by fucking illusions. at least a stage magician does it right in front of you using practical effects and misdirection.

Anyone remember GTA2?

Navigating foreign countries is much easier now, thanks to google maps and all that jazz; I would have probably been lost so many times in the past had I not a map on my phone with my current location. It's much better than fucking about with a map book and looking like an obvious tourist too. Flights are much cheaper relative to income an all, especially as a NEET. Gibs are better in general, and society far more excepting of spergs in general, so long as we keep your pol-tier views to ourselves.

>>510814965
>AI
AI has brought absolutely nothing of value to society.

It's made kids and even adults lazier and dumber and more complacent and greedy, it's taken away or in the process of taking away jobs from both blue collar and white collar as well as creative careers, it's made pajeet scammer's scams that much more convincing, it's flooded youtube and image search result with slop after slop after slop, its data centers are absolutely terrible for the environment.

My brother just got back from Marina Bay Sands. Based on his impressions of Singapore I would guess where you come from NEETs live better than middle class in most of Europe.

>>510816350
I agree for the most part but AI does make some things better. I write for a living and AI has made it way easier to edit and proofread my own work instead of paying for those services.

Internet Speeds, and that is about it really, everything else hasn't been that much of an "improvement" really.

>>510816532
I'm actually bong but yeah it wouldn't surprise me if the gibs are well above average in Europe, like Switzerland/Austria or something.

>>510816641
So you're telling me you traveled TO Singapore on your NEETbux?

>>510815223
Ok this one is true.

>>510816635

You're gonna wake up one day not even knowing how to write anymore because AI does it all for you.

The fact that you have access to almost all music and media (tv,movies) ever made in the palm of your hand for free is pretty sweet

>>510816635
You fell for it. In a decent society there are jobs everywhere, way more jobs than people. But you just celebrated a job being taken away by technology.

>>510816639
>Internet Speeds, and that is about it really
Everything now is a hundred gigs but none of it is worth downloading.

>>510816682
Yeah, but I'm only here for a few days then off to Thailand. It's way too expensive to stay any longer. I live with my mum back home, and don't pay any bills or buy food so it's easy to save up.

>>510816816
It's overwhelming and leads to descision guilt.

>>510816715
AI doesn't do it for me? AI can't write for shit. It edits and proof reads though which isn't writing. You're just a theatrical boomer tier chicken little trying to push doom because you can't adapt to technology. The same type of person who would call electricity satanism. Hate to say it but AI isn't going anywhere, either adapt or get used to begging panhandling for scraps on the street.

Politics wise? 10000% worse as trump is censoring literally anyone and everyone and is pumping out propaganda and if you push back at all he throws a fit. And people actually like it

That has more to do with you being a teenager or kid back then, and now hanging out at the skate park as a 40 year old isn't the same vibe.

I'm 40 and I was out last Friday and it was jam packed with early/mid 20 year olds everywhere at 4 different places and throughout the streets. I'm in a suburb of chicago so it was a predominantly white crowd. I don't get this whole 'everyone sits inside 24/7 thing'

Music production. The fact that one guy in a bedroom with a laptop, guitar, focusrite and some software can make fully professional-sounding music would have blown my mind 20 years ago.

AI will just allow humans to do other things. Same with tue industrial revolution. Most of the modern sports you enjoy today came from that.

>>510818229
Indeed. I dont need a guitar, just a MacBook Pro!

>>510817765
literally the only thing's that gone from the 90s is arcades in every single strip malls, and video stores.
Even then arcades are making comebacks in one way or another.

Maybe also there's no more like Hot Topic stores at the mall, but now mallgoth zoomers hang out at the anime and gaming stores instead.

Hooray we'll finally be free to not do any sort of creative endeavor because people are only interested in AI slop. We'll also be free to not have a job anymore because AI will have also replaced that.

and SURELY our billionaire overlords will give us free money in exchange for taking away all of our hopes and dreams.

Peaked years ago and graphics alone are a meaningless metric
>Internet Speed
Only unambiguous truth here
>Drone
Downhill since transponders mandated and sofrware has become more invasive too
>Medicine
Still impactful but advancements increasingly less accessible and meaningful to average people and industry corruption/ bloat has only gitten worse and same with interplay with insurance industry
>Tvs
Also already peaked with any marginal advancement more than offset by spyware and bloatware.
Technological advancement doesn't mean jack fucking shit for a society if it doesn't actually benefit the people and improve society, standards of living, or personal freedoms.

Whatever. Assuming the economic elites won't exterminate the masses of useless eaters once automation is sufficiently advanced to replace most wagies (protip: there's no reason whatsoever to assume this) and everyone is just free to NEET, actually creative people will thrive regardless of AI slop because they don't give a fuck about normalcattle media consumption habits.

Never played those, but no, games were better before. Creative, inventive and fun, not just another version of the same thing.
Super Mario 3 was one of the greatest games ever and I guarantee if you put kids in front of that game vs. any new game, they'll spend more time and have more fun playing SM3.

Kek yeah obviously kids would enjoy mario over gritty stories like rdr or cyberpunk, or mechanically difficult and dark themed dark souls or elden ring...because they're kids and super mario is a game made for kids. I understand some stuck manchildren still play it too and say how it's better than "modern games" but it's made for kids. You retard lmao

Closer to death lol

>>510824062
you think it matters what adults think about video games? who have the pretentious qualities instilled in them about what video games are and who try to attribute more importance to them than exists? No, SM3 is also more enjoyable for adults. I'm sure you may argue the "it's for kids" but it doesn't take away the fun. I think you are just trying to equate adult themes with more fun for adults, but fun is fun. It doesn't rely on any particular age or preconceived pretentious notion of what you're supposed to think about games as an adult.

You’re here telling us not to worry about AI because it’s not going to replace creativity yet you’re also admitting that AI is going to lead to everyone but elites getting exterminated after AI renders people useless.
Are you some faggot who’s trying to save yourself from Roko’s Basilisk or something? Your own argument tells us that AI is the greatest existential threat to humanity and will lead to the majority of the population getting killed, but nah we shouldn’t be worried about it.
