Video games are fucking dead

>>717801576 (OP)
Everything else is dead too. The internet, relationships, jobs, housing, everything
Its fucking over

>>717801820
And by the end of the year, I will be.

>>717801820
War-time is like that. By WW2 all luxuries are gone and you eat rations from stockpiled food and get limited new food rations in quotas.
It's gonna be fun, like my depressive episodes. I've long been trained that there's a dip of sadness that pervades, but then overcoming that is the most happy days, and every time I get like this, I'm reminded of last time and how good it felt to overcome it.
Just make it 10 years, because something's gonna happen in the next 5-6 years with BRICS vs The West, and whatever the fuck MAGA's endgame is.
And it's gonna make the game industry almost totally flatlined, but I'm sure Nintendo and Valve will survive it.

>>717801854
me too
probably sooner than that

>it's literally unironically over
what am I supposed to play now? Math?

And this is exactly why Sony is even getting desperate and starting to put all their shit on Xbox. The writing is on the wall. Boomer gamers (Gen X and Millennials) who grew up worshipping ECKZCLOOSIVES for PlayStation and Xbox are getting older and the gaming companies are going where the money is. Single player walking simulator moviegames from Sony just don't generate enough revenue, and the truth is PlayStation fags don't even buy those critically acclaimed games in a large enough volume to justify keeping them exclusive to one platform anymore. You're going to see Spider-Man, Horizon Zero Dawn, The Last Of Us, and Days Gone on Xbox and Nintendo in the near future. And the funny thing is Sony did it to themselves, putting out the biggest cultural and commerical flop in modern gaming history SLOPCORD lost them half a billion dollars, and they flushed 3.7 billion down the toilet when they purchased Bungie, who are floundering with that trash ass Edge Of Fate xpac and everyone knows Slopathon is gonna bomb HARD, if it doesn't get shelved entirely.


> TLDR single player walking simulator moviegames are going out of style along with boomer gamers. Zoom Zooms and their FTP slop is where all the action is.

Sony killed video games.

A dying sun typically is at it's largest mass.

>>717802198
Sony just didn't do shit, but they lost the second they moved HQ to California in 2016. What we've seen on PS5 with Concordslop and TLOU2 being bad enough that it had to cancel the TV show before Part II is finished, what we see now is simply the symptom of that move in 2016, and I think all the rumors of PS6 and the Portable is because they've been halting progress on PS5 projects and fast-tracking a slew of SP and GaaS games to recover with on PSP3/PS6

>>717802005
Something big is definitely going to happen in the 2030's. A bunch of shit is coalescing.

2030 Agenda
Social Security runs out
All those studies that predict a 2030 collapse/depression
2036 Asteroid
etc.

>>717802337
>a giant tranny posting on /v/ means video games are dying

>>717802819
I wonder if a "2036 asteroid" is just a psy-op to make governments "take precautions" so they can get bunkers up and psy-op people to stockpile things just to avoid mentioning that we might go to war before it's about to happen.

>>717801854
don't dew it
you have to outlive ric flair

>99942 Apophis (provisional designation 2004 MN4) is a near-Earth asteroid and a potentially hazardous object, 450 metres (1,480 ft) by 170 metres (560 ft) in size, that caused a brief period of concern in December 2004 when initial observations indicated a probability of 0.027 (2.7%) that it would hit Earth on Friday, April 13, 2029. Additional observations provided improved predictions that eliminated the possibility of an impact on Earth in 2029.

its crazy that Ric Flair ended up outliving Hulk Hogan

Then what the hell was I playing this whole time?

>>717801820
Switch is Alice. 4chan is still up, you can have relationships online with Bros, you're too fucking egotistic to work for minimum wage, you can buy a $10,000 house in bumfuck flyover states.

It's JUST beginning, retard. Once we get rid of Trump and his parasites then America can be great again.

That's call Bi Polar disorder and I have that. I used to think BPD was just something gay men call women when they're being psychos but they just got tir confused.

>>717802198
This. When Sony entered the market the quality of games AND game journalism suffered. When Xbox joined it was so fucking over.

In the words of a certain poster you are. Your prolonged suffering going off to feed some halfbaked storm god. Like he isn't going to be subject to the passing of time that every other patron deity has come and gone through. No one cried for Enki when fell out of fashion with the modern audiences.

>>717803392
Apophis is such a cool name. Unreal Championship 2 was also pretty cool.

>unemployed for like a year
>no one wants to hire me for anything
>gonna probably use my savings to buy a gun and kill myself
So just like that? that's the only alternative? The only other option is to go live in another country but the world in general ain't doing too well. Maybe the Netherlands? fuck man I dunno. If you don't make any money you're just kinda fucked and need to commit suicide.

>>717806638
You can always die for the cause. They'll thank you for your service if you do it right.

>>717804105
You’re not even wrong-Sony turned everything into cinematic walking sims and tech demo showcases, then Xbox came in trying to be the "gamer bro" with Mountain Dew and Dorito ads plastered over everything. Gaming used to be about jank-ass games with soul, now it's all mocap actors pretending to cry over their dead polygonal kid. PlayStation 2 was the last time Sony still had that hungry, scrappy energy.

BPD is Borderline, not Bipolar. I think you might just be stupid.

>>717801576 (OP)
from the last stats gen Z dont buy games like the previous Gen, so there's hope for a gaming industry crash
>>717803828
pointless suffering without a meaning/purpose is just torture retard

i'm way too tired to actually respond but i think its great that you put effort into it

>>717810424
nobody is forcing you to play shit you dont want to play
most people play 1-2 new games per year and the stuff they grew up with anyway

>In Egyptian mythology, Apophis (also known as Apep) is a monstrous serpent who embodies chaos and darkness, constantly battling the sun god Ra. He is the embodiment of disorder and the enemy of Ma'at, the principle of order, truth, and cosmic balance.

The movie Gods of Egypt was lovingly jank, and featured a scene of galactic battle between the serpent and Ra (Geoffrey Rush), depicting a battle that takes place every single night for all of time. The VFX were hokey, along with the rest of the movie, but it was such a cool scene. Would recommend checking the movie out.
