  • because that’s what the majority of people play.

    the majority of people buy 1-2 games a year and play them all year. COD, sports games, the big popular shooters or whatever is trendy at the moment.

    they are casual fans. they don’t give a shit about stuff like Expedition 33 and would be totally uninterested in a game like that as boring and stupid. these are the same people who only watch marvel movies or hollywood action crap.

    all my friends/family who play games think I’m a gay weirdo for liking non sports, non military, non racing games.


  • They probably won’t play games once they go to college. They are very concerned with popularity and being cool, and once playing games isn’t cool they will stop.

    They don’t really care about video games as a genre/hobby anymore than they do about movies outside of Marvel films. They like what is popular because other people like it.

    they are the epitome of filthy casuals, but that’s where the money is. they play games on mid level laptops and think i’m a weirdo nerd for having a ps5.




  • he’s a child. he has no idea want things cost or what they are worth.

    all he knows is the intense urge to get more robux

    and disney was probably more about his parents. my parents made me go to disney twice even though i had no interest and told me what an ungrateful shit iw as the entire time. it was never about me. it was about them.

    i was happier hanging out win the woods with my friends, or even alone, than going to disney. i hated it.

    ironically i wanted to go six flags but my parents never took me, even thought it was in driving distance and way cheaper… because everything was about them. the rides were so much better.



  • i have four nephews. 3 of them want fortnight/roblox money. the other one doesn’t care about games at all.

    i try to get them into different games and they won’t have it. they are addicts for these freemium bullshit games. the concept of buying a game is weird to them. they expect them to be free, but they have normalized paying money for in game items.

    and they have been playing these games for years now. 6+ years playing the same game. probably 10,000+ hours in them. but all they care about is playing with tehir friends and competing over who is best at fortnite.


  • because it made them feel feelings.

    same reason anyone has any parasocial relationship. apparently people watch people stream or influence and develop feelings for them.

    i don’t personally expereince any of this so it bafflest he crap otu of me… but apparently that makes me mentally ill in the current technology economy where it’s considered ‘normal’ to gift people 100/1000s of dollars to listen to them whine online.

    at least with Nintendo I am playing for a console and a game to play. not for the experiencing of living viscerally though somebody else.
