How is to be a gamer in the third world?
>>342383564
shit.
>>342383564
Well no one sells video games especially not in Laos so I have to import online and spend +100 USD on shipping
>>342383564

How is it, you ask? How is it? While the West enjoys prostitutes, white women pussy, partying, and enjoying the hedonistic pleasures of the world, I wake up in the shitehole that is my third world country. While you pound the white female and enjoy your fiber connections, I'm on fucking dial up staring into the never loading webpages. I see nothing but my own sadness in the monitor.
How is it, you ask? Just come here and experience the shit you all overcame centuries ago.
look at this chart to compare the launch prices of the ps4.

Sorry, bro
>get to play the most recent games during the 90s when we had a proper "neoliberal" president that promoted an open market and everything was reasonably cheap
>socialist big government party gets into power during the 2000s and perpetuates itself in power by giving money to the poor while making more people poor so they need the give outs, your purchasing power only decreases until you can't afford current gen consoles at all anymore as an upper middle class citizen, you have to either play affordable pirated ps2 games or forego buying a car for a long while because that ps4 is at least 70% of a decent car's price
>all while the american feminazi movement seeps into the socialist government's policies, so that kids can't even buy soft drinks anymore and you basically have no free speech
If you want to go legit its very expensive.
You have to be open minded with AMD shit.
i7 processors are a distant dream.
>>342384262
tfw this is plus taxes already
Dude, you could buy a PC and it's better than this crap (Or just buy PS4 on the blackmarket/tor)
>>342384530
What kind of decent car only costs like 4k?
1. Be born in third world(this is an outdated term btw)
2. Game
It's not that hard.
é foda
>>342383564
same as first world
you're only poor if you're dumb or a nigger here
>>342384530
If you're talking about Brazil, i'd argue the buying power of the brazilian overall was pretty good in the middle of the Lula government.
The dollar skyrocketed by the end of Dilma's government though
Brazil made a great, selfless sacrifice.
The entirety of the population transfered all their video game skill to one hue among them.
All other Brazilians are bad at video games, so that he can be good.

Building a PC is fucking expensive, so everyone just sticks to dota/lol.
>>342383564
We have to pay more for games, I guess that's pretty much the only difference.
on pc it is okay since steam gives you regional pricing and price cuts are steam okay
also you can get cheap keys for denuvo games.
for single player stuff pirate it.
on consoles pretty hard.
though people here does game share account selling thing. they open accounts and sell them shit like that.
that even comes much cheaper then pc games but there are risk like some fag could change password etc. generally people does this with respected people so not big problem.
im too lazy for communactions so i love steam.
and i like fact all pre console exc games coming to PC like MGS,Tekken,FF
>>342385003
>outdated term
Pol correct bullshit fuck off
>>342384262
A PS4 is way more affordable nowadays. Like around R$ 1750, still expensive, but not stupidly expensive anymore.
Go back to your manwoman in Ff14, Matheus
>>342383564
expensive so we just watch anime instead
>>342385404
comparatively, we don't pay more for games if you play on PC, we pay less.
for consoles and PC parts there's a 70% "welcome to the rice fields motherfucker" tax, though.
>>342385673
>paying quadruple the price in proper developed countries while getting third world salaries is "not stupidly expensive"
fucking macaco
TurkeyFag here.
game consoles cost like 500$/1500 Turk Lira
while building a decent pc with i5//8GBram/960 tier gpu also cost same.
wii u is non exisstant
xbone is barely 1000 machines at best.
people use ps4 are probably more richer dudes, playing fifa and cod mostly. on psn there are good sales for poor fags.
on pc LoL HAS fucking huge community.
also blizzard games and Gta series are insanely popular
CS go is also fucking popular.
Steam went regional pricing since 2011 or something so its good tier. you can buy games without getting robbed.
im pc fag. i had ps3 but ps4 game prices are more then console itself.
>>342385003
"Developing nation" implies they're improving. Most aren't.
>>342385910
I did meet a guy from Turkey when I was in the US a few months ago.
It seems you guys suffer just like we at Brazil do.
>>342383564
pc parts are expensive so everyone play LOL and dota in their toasters
here we only buy Consoles when you can pirate them or just to play FIFA
>>342385842
Parcela em 10x sem juros :^)
>>342386041
same mostly.
there are also "playstation cafes" here that helps you to play them with friends for hour like 2$.
yeah it sucks to be in 3rd party world. though i love amd for being budget friendly for countries like us. I will def pick up either 470 or 460 .
they deserve it desu. top tier pricing while nvidia cucks cost their gpus 900$
and people wondering who are playing those mobile games and why all of them are f2p.
>>342386639
normies?
Venezuela here with a gayman PC built late 2013 and PS3. Buying games for both systems is a gigantic luxury due to local prices being humongous relative to work wages and digital dollars being outright impossible to aquire without external connections, and importing is a terribly expensive and complicated process to boot.
Gaming here consists of cheap pirated last gen games or undemanding f2p games on PC. In my case I have friends in other countries that gift me games every now and then, but playing with them is a hassle because of terrible Internet speed that averages at 150 ping at best on early mornings.
>>342384262
A ps4 is 8000 ARS[568 usd] in argentina if you're lucky and goes up to 13.000[923 usd](sony store price) depending on where you buy.
And games cost 127/87 usd on launch.
meio caro
You have to play on a Sony console or use your toaster to play f2p/old shit. Also fightcade, wich is a third world party now.
A bit expensive and shitty, but the local dev scene here is fantastic.
>>342387138
but here game 3 game prices nearly same price as brand new console.
on pc its 1/3 of console game prices.
>>342387320
>creating games based on a Mexican TV show from the 80s
Wew.

>tfw loved in Ukraine
>Shared an account with a bro from Russia so that we could buy a ps3 game once per month when something good released
>All the shit happened
>Salaries are low as fuck while games became something only elite folks could afford
>Moved to Euroland
>Have a decent job, built a high end gaming rig, bought a ps4 and can buy any game I want at any time
Feels good
>>342383564
Well for one, repairing a broken handheld or controller is an alien concept around the third world so if it breaks you have to buy a new one instead.
>>342383564
Look at Dota 2's community if you want to see a diverse bunch of angry poor people thriving together

>doesn't matter what game it is, they're playing it and shitting on everything
you niggers are hiding something
>>342388101
they just replace them in my shithole
Also OP its pretty good, easily better than western world but then again I'm not in brazil because paying 3k for a ps4 wouldn't be good
>>342388426
I will send you RAM RIGHT NOW.

The same but you end up, most of the time, wishing you were playing with Americans and such, fucking Latin Americans are pieces of shit most of them.
>>342388548
>BRs, often called subhuman, managed to get past overwhelming prices and into video games to shit on them and have fun
>australians just cry on /v/ years on an end
makes you think
>>342388548
No shit you see and remember them in every online game. It is easy to remember that 1 br guy instead of the 1000 shitter amerifatties you are used to before him
>>342388723
lots of different people are called subhumans on 4chan
>>342383791
Damn nigga you for real from Laos?
>>342388927
>this is how the nips see us when we invade their online games
truly makes you think huh
>>342389001
gondolas are peaceful creatures

I'd reckon pretty much everyone at this point
>>342386858
Better move to another country anon. Venezuela is a sinking ship that cannot be saved.
>>342383564
>make 600 USD which is considered high for my country
>still can afford shit easier than average westerner because I don't pay retarded amounts of money for rents and leases and such and only use around 200 USD a month
Its pretty good
>>342389238
That's expensive and I'm not rich enough to do that.
>play overwatch on open beta
>is literally the most fun I've had with a game in years
>neglected college so I could keep playing
>game is 160 HUEDOLLARS
>I don't have a job, so all the money I get goes to maintaining my social life/basic needs
>would be tremendously irresponsible to waste all that money on video games
Shit sucks. Wish I could a job or something.
>>342389075
>lose 10 games in an online game
>one or two of them have a br in it
>go on 4chan to whine and cry about how br is ruining said game
It is a vicious cycle
>>342389806
Don't worry about it, keep the cash. Wasted 160 Temerbucks and all games have mexicans going jajajajaja in them, complete fucking nightmare.
>>342389726
Where?
>>342384256
Even if you were here white women are for white people bro.
>>342389961
romania, full on third world
>>342388548
there are plenty poorly educated nouveau riche children of politicians (or other participants of crony socialism) that have basically unlimited income but are nonetheless monkeys
the salary of even a low end brazilian politician is at least 7000% of an upper middle class common citizen with an actually productive role in society
>>342389947
>not playing on european servers
It was pretty chill. Still a lot of shitters, but no jajaja to be heard of. Also luckly no lag.
>>342390057
how come you dont just fucking riot and slay them?
>>342390057
You seriously believe every monkey you see online is the son of a politician? Dude this is /pol/ levels of delusion. The simplest answer is people waste money on shit they shouldn't all the time. There's people that buy video games instead of saving for other important shit.
Also not everyone is dirt poor.
>>342383564
I'll never understand why these people play video games.
Shouldn't they be spending their time swatting flies off their body? aka catching dinner
>>342389976
Maybe in the backwater South, but even they're in denial and secretly crave black cock.
>>342390751
Wish I had to hunt my dinner. Would be pretty rad living in real world's Monter Hunter.
>>342390057
maybe in your little shithole in the northeast
everywhere else people can afford to have hobbies and not starve
>>342383564
Jamaican here. gaming (on its own) isn't bad at all.but multiplayer and getting games is literally impossible here.>the country barely moved from the 1800s so barely anyone actually owns or knows what a computer or a console is.
> since most people don't own any gaming equipment:
>No severs
>Cross-play is impossible since i live on a rock just above the equator
>gaming market so weak that there no official stores on the island. this is bad to point where book shops sells ps4's with uncharted collection as bonus.
The only reason I've gotten to even buy games is because i can import them meaning i have always wait weeks to get one game. but other then that fine
>>342390776
You can try as hard as you want Tyrone, unless money is involved and even then it is only for appearances, they want nothing to do with shitskins.

>>342391050
How's Jamaica aside from gaming?
>>342390406
considering that it has been having constant riots ever since 2013 i can say that people are trying
>>342383564
Expensive and slow.
That's why I stick to emulators and old games.
>>342383564
Everyone goes to the house of that one friend who has one. Take turns or do local multiplayer.
Or
You have your parents who are working overseas gift you one by parcel.
Same goes for games. Borrow or exchange with friends, or have parents send you some, though you can find pirated versions of these for a significantly lower price.
Internet Cafés are still popular LAN party hotspots. Some even run their own tournaments.
Console arcades have also been a thing since since the 90s, maybe even before that. Both charge you by the hour.

America is the best country in the world.
>>342385910
>Wanted to buy a PS4 to play next gen games
>Console is 1500 TL
>Next gen games cost 300 TL
If only 1$ wasn't 3TL and Aral wasn't such a greedy company.Also Xbones are more popular than you think because of kinect.
>>342388101
Fuck are you on? I have friends who make a living out of repairing these solely, even for cheap.
This is the only image I'm allowed on my phone, so pic sort of unrelated. I'm also probably going to get executed for accessing this site later lol.
Here in North Korea, we have a VERY small amount of games. The only ones you people may know of is Pyongyang Racer and those propaganda flash games, but only recently here in North Korea we got arcades where you can play NES and MegaDrive games. They said that the great leader gave us these systems, but they only say that to avoid being arrested.
The only games I have ever played that aren't propaganda are Duck Hunt, Super Mario Bros, Pac Man and Sonic The Hedgehog.
It is said that some hospitals here have the Wii for muscle development, but I've never seen one in person. It's supposed to be a little white box controlled with a bar shaped controller.
Other than that, we only really get to play games for about 30 minutes at a time since people are queuing up just to play "The Great Leader's amazing games!". I'm going to be executed later. Have a nice evening you lot.
>>342383791
So are you Chinese or Japanese?
internet sucks but everything is pretty good. i live in an enclosed compound w/ cameras so the locals can't get in. But we have about one incident a month of some poor local trying to climb the fence and getting attacked by dogs in the process so that's always funny to watch.
We get food delivered to us and when we do go out its to go to the city or the hills where there's strict policies filtering certain locals

Here in Brazil, rich people play the games and we poor people watch them play the games.
Back in the 90's, me and my friends used to spy on the window of our rich neighbor to watch him playing PS1, then PS2. Now thanks to Twitch and Youtube we don't have to do that anymore.

The PS4 has a decent price now.
My problem is with how expensive games are. R$200,00 for physical copies.
