Thread 713181857

Why do I feel so lonely gaming now? Single player, multiplayer, etc. I just sit in front of a screen in silence and I feel so alone.

>>713181857 (OP)
Man, you don't know how much peace you have.
You have to enjoy every single moment of peace like that. Most people suffer with others ruining their lifes.

>>713181857 (OP)
Lmao shut up bitch. I got married and I wish I could go back to that life. Shes always screaming at me whenever I'm playing vidya

>>713181857 (OP)
Meta Quest 3 VR, shooter, wrist weights. See you on the other side.

>>713182360
For peoples who are not yet married, never have a girlfriend who doesn't accept your hobbies/passions. It will never work and you will certainly be miserable. Better stay alone than with someone who will only hinder you.

Godspeed anon, I hope that your life will change.

I wish I could be a happy loner gamer again. I've been chronically ill for years now with constant pain, inability to focus etc. Gaming, reading books etc suck now too. Now I'm just an unhappy loner gamer.

>>713181857 (OP)
It's because gaming used to be the most interesing thing happening in a room. It was a whole social experience. Then when online came out people were easy to connect with and it was wild and ungated. Now no one games in real life anymore and when you get online other people are hidden behind so much corporate faggotry it feels like you're alone

Get a new hobby or fix your life, either way works.

Pffft I miss playing something besides shooters. I’m planning on picking up a game today and it’s almost entirely to help wean me off BO6 because the series is cancer and I’m skipping some entries

>>713183250
I had a gf very similar to this. I'd spend like 3 days just doing what she wanted. Clothes shopping, watching TV, cuddling etc. But when I wanted to just sit and play vidya she got really grumpy. She usually gave me a single day alone. Anymore than that she got angry at me for wasting time or not paying attention to her. Funnily enough, I had someone like her before her as well. I think if you get a gf she has to be an autistic gamer type person. Otherwise, you risk getting a normie who hate anything to do with vidya beyond

>>713183827
everyone and everything is on discord or some other 3rd party app now. If you are not on it chances are you are missing most conversation that happens in their little clique.

Thats why all mmos are silent now

The other side of the coin is me, someone with a wife and kids that can't play vidya anymore. I started Talos Principle 2 when it came out and I only finished it a couple of months ago.

I started Expedition 33 when it came out and I'm only now at the end of ACT 1.

So yeah you'll finish 1 game every ~2 years and that feels like me putting all my actual free time into games.

Shitposting is easy because you can do it on the toilet or while on daddy duty. Actually sitting down to play a game is fucking impossible.

Especially as the youngest generation until ~6 years old aren't interested in games like Gen Alpha and Zoomers were. Games are boring to both my daughter and son.

Plenty of dysgenics who breed. In fact most of the people I know who have more than 2 kids are dysgenic.

>>713182220
Being alone certainly has its perks. I used to have this friend who would bother me to stream a gacha game to him every day and it was fucking hell. One time he even freaked out on me because I just didn’t care about it as much as he did. People suck. I’d rather just play with strangers on communication heavy games like Hell Let Loose and Arma

>>713188010
You're expected to grow up and stop playing things for children (video games). Can you really blame women?

>>713188201
Redneck white trash folks that fuck their cousins?

>>713181857 (OP)
you need to play persona 4

>>713187419
Girls like that will nag about any hobby, not just vidya. A friend of mine has a "le gamer gf", who's into co-op stuff and indie games. She still got mad at him when we had a streak in LoL. Tbf, sometimes the problem is the dude, if you only want to hang around with her when YOU want, that's a ticking bomb.

>>713188393
Video games are for adults, just like TV. That kids like them is a side benefit

>>713181857 (OP)
>Go to play a game online that has voice chat enabled
>Always has a bunch of shrill voices children no matter the game

You can get banned for saying nigger, but there is zero way to report underage users in an online game with an M rating and that would improve 99% of games.

Another crybaby wojak thread

>>713187419
The first mistake is assuming women even understand the concept of a hobby

To them "hobbies" are just acts they put on to fight for social standing
They physically do not comprehend doing something for it's own sake

>>713181857 (OP)
Probably unrelated, but I loved the PS2 days where I would just play in the couch with my brothers/cousins/friends using the multiap. Online does not hit the same.

>>713188440
I'm not american. Mostly urban trash racemixers in fact

>>713188393
I don't blame them, I just prefer vidya to women. They can abuse the retards as much as they like. I pity incels and wifecucks.

>>713181857 (OP)
Speak for yourself nerd lmao

I only have time to play vidya for like 4 hours a week, usually TF2. Every time I play, I have fun. I do some trolling in text chat, disintegrate nerds with the Cow Mangler, and cry laughing at least twice every time I play. I cherish every minute I get to play and I don't let losing ruin my fun.

Imagine spending hours every day playing a game you hate and being sad and alone. I live alone, have no friends, and work more than do anything else in a week, but I'm never depressed about it. Find some joy in life outside of games and you'll be amazed what a difference it'll make

>why do i feel lonely in games when i am a friendless loser irl and also have no online friends to game with
yeah its a mystery, OP.

>>713191675
My only joy is vidya. Problem OP has is he's a miserable little fuck, if he spent all his time rock-climbing or eating pussy he'd still be the same cunt.

>>713191675
>Find some joy in life outside of games and you'll be amazed what a difference it'll make
this is good advice, but dont be friendless like this. not everyone is schizoaffective like you and can just be alone with no friends. get hobbies outside of gaming, get friends and then you can maybe even invite those said friends to game with you later on.

>>713181857 (OP)
You grow up. Get a different hobby ,job and get married

>>713181857 (OP)
I've learned to write music, and now I spend most of my free time doing that. I don't really play games that often anymore but when I do it's always fun and refreshing.

>>713192070
>not everyone is schizoaffective like you
Well why tf not???
More I was making the point that you can be friendless and alone and not be completely miserable. I have my troubles and sometimes I wish I had more friends but it doesn't bother me, I just exist and keep living for as long as fate deems I should be allowed to

>>713181857 (OP)
>I just sit in front of a screen in silence and I feel so alone.
Assuming this isn't a demoralization bot thread why don't you tell us when gaming didn't feel lonely and depressing for you? What changed?

Personally I enjoy some alone time. But sometimes I play co-op games with randoms, sometimes I play with my friends, sometimes me and my friends organize LAN sessions and couch co-op nights.

>>713181857 (OP)
Back in the day you used to play with your bros. Now everyone plays online so there's no need to share controllers and use split screens, but at the same time you are removed from all human contact while gaming.

>>713192070
Surely most of the people on this site are still loners and recluses, no?
It’s not that big of a deal.

>>713182220
This is a tremendous cope by the way in case you forgot.

>>713192991
if the issue is that youre lonely and want friends, then you need to seek friends. unless you are like that other anon that can somehow be fine completely alone, but 99% of people need friends, even those who lean more on the loner and recluse side. you still need people in your life that care about you and that you yourself care about

You play on PC the most soulless lonely platform

>>713182981
It's true, bros.

I couldn't fucking imagine not having the respite that is vidya in my life.

I'm one of the lucky ones - my wife doesn't care a single bit how often I play video games or do what I want. We both team up for the kids and that's all she asks for.

She usually sits next to me reading one of her books while I'm playing whatever the video game of the moment is after the kids go to bed.

>>713189372
I look like this

>>713181857 (OP)

Most people can't just sit around and play video games all day. That's a good way to get anhedonia and depression. You have to balance it with something like exercise or doing something productive. You do that, then video games will feel funner to play. Also, most new video games are shit now. They barely come out and even when they do, they're soulless slop. You need to play better games. There's also the distinct possibility that you've outgrown video games entirely. Try getting a life and see if it suits you.

Good thing I have no hobbies or passions. I have nothing to not be supported or have rejected so I should be fine there.

If you consider being lonely a negative, then you're a failed normalfag, you don't belong on this website and you should kill yourself right fucking now.

This nigga on a video game board talking about starting at screens.

>>713191023
This is the dumbest incel line I hear on a regular basis. This bit is obviously retarded the moment you start actually meeting and noticing women, or if you apply the same "it's all just social status, man" logic to men. (which you shouldn't, cause it's dumb)

>>713188393
How come sports aren't considered a juvenile hobbie, but video games are?
Both are games, both are meant for young people. Yet you see that most boomers are into watching sports, but they shit on video games. Even sports with zero physical activity like chess are seeing as something positive compared to vidya.

I feel lonely because I want to talk about DELTARUNE the NEW VIDEO GAME on the VIDEO GAME board but I can't because of some niggerfaggot named ABIB

>>713194047
i said big AND small you retarded fucking mutt which means small ones at your friends house. you have also clearly never been to a big one if you dont think its a social experience. you are playing with the people around you and you play with other people there through VoIP.

>>713193019
If only. Redpill exists for both incels and people that already had toxic relationships. Most relationships end with the first child, also.
Being by yourself is a peace of mind.

>>713194047
yes you kind of have to stare at the screen when you are actively playing a game like CS or Quake or Dota or Starcraft, retard. have you never played a game before?

>>713182981
This is true, my wife doesn't like playing vidya games, but she doesn't nag me about it or complain. If she wants attention she can come and get it. I can pause the game, if not she actually understands and comes back later.

>>713182981
>posting the censored art

>>713187419
Autistic gamer is not the play.
If her autistic fixation is on you, the same scenario plays out as before, except she is mentally retarded.
If her autistic fixation is not on you, expect to need the same amount of effort to keep things working because again she's even more fucking retarded than a regular woman, so enjoy wrangling someone who might honestly just not give a shit and one day just drop you.
Then again, autist is just a buzzword these days so maybe you didn't actually mean what you said. Still, you should consider this.
Autistic people are mentally retarded. This should be taken into account when dealing with them.

>>713194230
Still no good interactions as bros on a couch with 4 controllers, PC fats lsck a soul

It’s really not that hard to strike up acquaintances over online games.
Say something in chat besides “gg”. Be the one to send friend invites instead of waiting for them to come to you. Get on voice chat if you aren’t too shy for it. Whatever you do just be the one to initiate.

>>713194456

newfag zoomer, CS is an old game. nobody cares about your gay JRPG moviegames for friendless losers to pretend like theyre in high school again like you.

>>713194629
You can never describe what experience there is worth experiencing in these images.
On console you can beat your bro and turn to see his immediate reaction and can playfully hit each other.
LAN parties you cant see their immediate reaction as they are playing on the other side of the room facing away from you and you can't playfully interact with each other as they are way farther than arms reach.
Not to mention PC you can to sit in a fixed position while on console you can lay on the ground, or couch or beanbag chair or even be upside down

>>713195527
you can do everything that you mentioned today with a fucking HDMI cable which me and my friendgroup do too when we have LAN parties. we could stand up and move around to look at the other palyers when they are clutching, kick eachother under the table, play literally any game under the sun rather than be limited by consolefaggotry, connect to projectors that project gameplay on the wall, etc. etc. you literally wouldnt get it. you can do anything

Guys is it normal my GF wants to talk to me all the time?

Like she’s always like call me or text me after work. And if it’s 5 or 10 minutes after I clock out she’s texts me hey what’s going on? You should have been out

She wants me to call her on my break and on my lunch and gets mad if I don’t

>>713196052
Congrats you are with a psycho

>>713196052
Nah, it's not normal but most women are like this because they're hella insecure and also just hella bored because they don't do anything interesting.
So they just use that to make sure you're not cheating or something and watch you like a hawk while expecting you to constantly entertain them.

>>713181857 (OP)
Depression or whatever other issues you've got in your life, has literally nothing to do with video games.

If you feel loneliness as a man you better drink some estrogen because you are not a man.

maybe you're in your early 20s and friends start splitting up going to different universities/jobs/moving cities/joining army/whatever and then suddenly a year goes by on youtube and video games and you're alone. It's ok. Remember you can call your friends/siblings whenever you want. Assuming you have some.

I just find it funny that people who say getting into a relationship solves the loneliness problem never seem happy. They're not even in love. And I notice it plainly when they show being repulsed by each other then pretend like it didn't happen.

She wants to partake and enjoy my hobbies and I join her with hers, even if they’re not my cup of tea. People just settle for the opposite sex because it’s the opposite sex,instead of finding someone who truly compliments them, then they act confused why they end up divorced and miserable or in a sham marriage.

What do you do when you're not gaming?
When I was a kid you spent most of the day outside doing God knows what and it was a nice break to sit down alone and dive into a game.

I've noticed online games have basically no conversation anymore which leads me to believe zoomers cannot communicate without some form of upvote and downvote

>>713202813
zoomers are hanging with their own irl and online friends on discord, dumbass boomerfag.

>discord
Ah, sorry ma'am I didn't know

There are people in this world who prefer solitude,
but there is no one who can withstand it.
