No sense of design, just random manchild crap in random places. Huge wood shelves that don't really fit what he's showing so there's huge gaps. Useless collector's edition boxes literally spilling off the sides of his shelf. Unopened toy boxes on the wall like some kind of run down comic book shop. 0/10, never scored.

OP here, keep it physical vs digital also that's not my collection, but I do like collections.
>>
I've been buying more digital recently because it's just too damn convenient.

Don't have to shop around, don't have to deal with stores being out of stock and I don't have to wait around for some faggot postal worker to deliver my game at 8PM on release date.
I can just download it at midnight when the game comes out.

I do like having a physical collection, but fuck it I'm too lazy
>>
>>339375160

No because i saved so much more money going digital for sales and half prices and also occasional pirating. This meant less work and more time to enjoy my hobbies and not letting them gather dust because I'm too tired after slave waging.

collection pictures always remind me of chris chan. his room is, of course, pretty creepy, but it seems odd to me that hoarding old computer games is acceptable in the context of someone who otherwise seems normal.

it just seems odd to me that people get satisfaction from surrounding themselves which plastic crap. it's like some infantile hugbox. if i had my old PS1 games i'd probably never go back to play them, and if i found myself playing them enough to warrant keeping them around, i'd probably get really depressed that i'm doing the same thing as i did when i was a kid

what i'm trying to say is that every 'battlestation' surrounded with anime figures, fun co pops or childhood games is basically on the same level as chris chan. to me anyway

Unfortunately, gaming is still considered childish, and until it isnt, displaying huge numbers of game boxes is a bad idea.

And collecting figurines is always going to be laughable. Not to mention that I want space for actual living and this is ugly. You can do collection prettier than this anon.

How am I restricting my hobby? I like to play videogames and I play them, and talk about them with my friends. I just dont talk about them with women (they dont give a shit most cases) and I dont dedicate my entire wall for boxes for games I'll probably never play again.

If you just want to play the games, having a physical collection isn't really necessary.

But the value of classic games is constantly increasing. I've seen games jump 200% in price in the past couple years, give it another few decades and these things will be genuine antiques. It's worth holding onto your old shit.

But her friends husband's are similar. Have Diablo figurines and other vidya related shit. Literally everybody has some gaming platform and some vidya stuff. Come on, its 2016, who doesn't?

Im the guy you responded to. No, I wouldnt, but I would only showcase some of them, and without figurines. Having an entire wall is suspect to everyone. Plus you can do it nicely, between the books on the bookshelves.

The only time when I wouldnt give a shit about this is if I was really succesful. If you drive a Lambo and live in a 4-bedroom house, you can do whatever you like. Until thaat happens, I will make compromises so I can have a happy social life. Its worth it.

Thats how every relationship goes. I go with my gf to the shopping park/nature every saturday, and she doesnt say anything about me playing how long I want on Sunday. Thats what the people hered ont understand - you cant do what you want and not be hindered by it in some way.

Why do you think you NEED to make compromises like that? If people judge you so harshly for your hobbies, maybe you know people who are just very retarded.

Like I said, all ym friends and their friends play vidya. My boss and coworkers play vidya. We even agreed on a great series during the job interview. A girl I had not seen for years had bought a SNES and collection of games for it the next time I saw her. We played it the whole night instead of going out to drink. Our group of friends has one girl who plays Tales of games with us. Many more play other types of genres. My parents don't give a shit if I play games or not. I could talk about my vidya collection with my relatives no problem.

I mean, in every aspect of my social life, vidya is relevant or at least potential subject for discussion.

Why is it that I don't need to make compromises in my social life to experience it fully?

>>339380246

>If people judge you so harshly for your hobbies, maybe you know people who are just very retarded.

Like I said, I dont make big compromises. I never had the urge to buy physical copies since digital got popular. I seriously cant tell you what I would 100% do If I wanted to start a collection.

Everyone I know knows that I play videogames. I have a huge gaming PC right next to my Xbox 360, PS3 and PS4. But, when you meet a girl ora friend, you usually dont know her/him that much and having a wall of collectibles at home is detrimental. You need to prove to the girl that you are a functional human being.

Granted, I wouldnt want to be with a girl that judged me for gaming. But I said, everything in excess is suspect for people. If they just see a gaming PC and few consoles, nobody gives a shit. Its something different with an entire wall of gaming boxes. It just says that you are boring. If you dedicate your entire life to videogames, what would you talk to her about?

It really isn't. It just tells you more clearly what your hobby is. For example someone could have his garage full of car parts and shit and that would tell me that he is a car hobbyist or whatever you would call that. Would I judge him as a person because of that? No. Would I think of him as "boring" person because he dedicates a lot of his time to this one hobby? No, that would be absurd.

> If you dedicate your entire life to videogames, what would you talk to her about?
Something else than videogames? Don't be so dense. You could argue that about any hobby. What would you talk about with anyone if you don't share the same hobbies? There are a lot of other things to talk about than just yours and her hobbies.

And sometimes being interested in someone elses hobbies is interesting too. I like to hear from car hobbyist about cars even though I hardly know anything about them myself.

Your hobbies don't define you as a person, not even when you dedicate most of your time to it. Your personality, job, life situation etc are also factors. If someone judges you for just one thin, s/he is a shallow person by definition.

Nope, not in the slightest. Look at how much useless space all that old junk takes up, and majority of that shit I would never even use. I can emulate everything up until the GameCube era on my PC, and in a couple of years 3DS/PS3/360/Wii U emulation will be playable making owning and buying games for them pointless. Hell, I own a N3DS now and I just pirate the fuck out of games. Having all those games digitally wherever I go is amazing.

Look, like I said in response to the other guy, our arguing is pointless. Maybe youre right, maybe I am. Who gives a shit. So I'm gonna write thiss last response and move one, OK?

The first problem is that gaming isnt seen on the same level as another hobbies, at least not here. It is seen like films, but without the art - just pure entertainment. That is something we as "gamers" need to eradicate - by showing society that gaming has depth and that we can play and be functional human being at the same time. It is just not considered "worthwhile". They would say that when you are a car hobbyist, you understand cars better and can help people. On the other hand, how would you employ your videogame knowledge IRL?

The second thing is, that when you see something like this wall, you immediatelly think "that must be his one and only hobby" even if it isnt true. Its just excessive. A person with many hobbies is interesting, a person with one is boring. Everyone has that one friend that is obsessed with something - and you know how that can get annoying quicky.

The third thing is - collecting as a hobby is just seen as childish. When you picture it, you see kids collecting model cars or stamps.

>What would you talk about with anyone if you don't share the same hobbies?

But most people dont really play games on any serious level, at least not here, and not at my age level. That will get better, I hope.

>And sometimes being interested in someone elses hobbies is interesting too.

Yes, but how do you drop your videogame knowledge in a conversation about something else? Plus most people know at least something about cars, and all men like them. It would be like talking about 14th-century vases with a normal person - they wouldnt know how to respond and it would be awkward.

>, s/he is a shallow person by definition.

People are shallow. They like to make quick judgements.

Honestly no, cause if someone questions my hobbies unironcally and with all seriousness, they really dont need to be in my life. Gaming, like tv and sports, is a waste of time. But its MY version of wasting time and if you judge on how one uses up their time, eat a dick

No Thanks, I'd rather hide my power level and continue to have parties and a chance at actually getting some pussy now and then.

Not even my close friends know I'm into anime and jrpgs. They just think I like to game out in my spare time.

Growing up, I didn't hide my power level and I ended up a virgin till I was 20. If I could go back, I would never even buy games as a teenager. Just work out and get the hunnies. Now I'm closing in on 30's and I get to enjoy both sides without really impacting either.

"Collecting" game shit and figures isn't going to net you nearly as much as you think it will in the long run. It just secures your manchild status.

What are you talking about? I personally don't want any credit for anything. I'm just saying that big sculpture and tiny figurine are the same in essence. And if I can't afford giant ass stone figure at home, buying small figurine is totally fine. But normie degenerate logic can't concieve that simple fact. And are instead convinced that some sculpture made couple of thousands years ago has intrinsic art value just because of that

Hey Faggots,
My name is John, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass pictures. You are everything bad in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any pussy? I mean, I guess it’s fun making fun of people because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures on facebook.
Don’t be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I’m pretty much perfect. I was captain of the football team, and starter on my basketball team. What sports do you play, other than “jack off to naked drawn Japanese people”? I also get straight A’s, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just blew me; Shit was SO cash). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.
