Topkek, not knowing the history of gam3r gurlz
>Be the release of the last console generation
>Gamers of the time had been fapping to bikini clad/naked female game characters since Custers Revenge

Shovelware is the result of Chads, not vice-versa. You think the people who were playing Thief and Deus Ex in the early 00's would be interested in fucking Candy Crush? Before Chads entered the hobby there was no market for those stupid mobile games because the people who played games took the hobby seriously.

Not at all what I was trying to say, but okay.
My sister showed me video games when I was growing up. We played Spyro and Starcraft together. She still plays games but it's mostly Elder Scrolls and yearly AAA releases. She has kids now that look up to me because they both like videogames and I help them out from time to time and let them play my 3DS when they're at my house. Also have her boyfriend added on steam and she plays his games alot
>>25737157
But candy crush is a game.
If you play a game while simultaneously being a girl, then you're a gamer girl.
in college I fugged a girl who was really into gaming and anime. her dvd shelf looked about like this. I'm not sure what games she played but they were weird rpgs beyond my power level. she was below average looking and a below average lay, but was kind of a whore.

>inb4 who said anything about online games
If you're not playing online, then what the fuck does it matter who else plays games? You'll never encounter them in-game anyway, so what's the issue?
>inb4 online games aren't shit
Online games are universally shit. Just a platform for faggots to showboat how much money they're willing to steal from their parents to spend on micro-transactions for avatar upgrades and cancerous shit like that. I defy you to name one example of a game that was genuinely improved by online multiplayer, aside from like, maybe l4d.

>>25738530
"Fine art" was, for the most part, funded by the rich as a form of entertainment. It was a money sink for them no different then contemporary time sinks. Schubert wrote because it was his passion but died poor and alone with syphalis because nobody wanted to purchase his time sink. Mozart, however, was heavily funded by the rich for entertainment. Fine art is only fine because you have made the arbitrary distinction between "art funded by a monarch" and "art funded by non-monarchical consumers."
>>25738530
I didn't say its normal. Addictions are all around bad and everything should be done in moderation.
But you should accept you have a problem before actually attacking other people for a similar issue. Because what you are doing is I do believe called "projecting".
>>25738616
It doesn't matter who funds it if it has no thought-provoking value. Financially well-off people can and do fund and encourage mindless escapism, too. Fine art is as fine as the depth to its meaning and the skill needed to create it.
Video games, by their nature of being mindless dopamine-mines and money sinks, will never be fine art.

No art has intrinsic meaning and that must be the crux of our disagreement.

This is how you end up with high definition photographs of anuses in an art gallery.
>>25738891
I agree that this perspective leads to degenerate works of art but that's why I don't go to art galleries that have those pictures. You can accept the fact the all art is meaningless while adding your own synthetic meaning as you have obviously done but you can't take your meaning and make it a real meaning. You view games as degenerate while praising an opera based on your own subjective preferences.

No, it's a recipe for an existentialist interpretation of the inherent meaninglessness of art. We both find high definition photography of anuses degenerate simply because our subjective preferences line up.
The only reasons for wanting to enforce a a definition of fine art versus art are either to stroke your intellectual ego or to attempt to subjugate human emotion and experience thereby enforcing your morality on them. In either case art is still meaningless.

Which invariably leads to degeneracy, a devaluation in art being produced, and reversion back to the jungle.
>either to stroke your intellectual ego or to attempt to subjugate human emotion and experience thereby enforcing your morality on them
Or to help guide a healthy society not filled with hedonistic beasts.
"Human emotion and experience" doesn't have to be depraved, nihilistic filth. To "just do whatever feels good" is the way of the beast. Which, of course, you probably consider humans to be no different from whatsoever.
>In either case art is still meaningless.

So what I said: subjugate humanity. That's fine as long as you are open and honest about it. I'd vote National Socialist and burn high fidelity photos of anus' as quick as you would but don't pretend their exists a meaning in any art form beyond entertainment. Sure, make some abstracted difference between base enjoyment and intellectual enjoyment and you may have some grounding to work with but so far you just say "fine art is good video games and anus' are bad."

Perhaps if "human emotion and experience" is vile, degenerate, beastly brutality and stupidity, then it does need to be subjugated. Then "subjugation" might even be a virtue. Self-control and planning are what helped bring is to greatness.

Base enjoyment is very easily defined: titilation, essentially.
Intellectual enjoyment is much more difficult to define. Something Fred finds fascinating may bore Bob to death and vice versa.

The key words here are "grow" and "build". A picture of genitals with the supposed message of destruction does not promote growth or building. "Pseudo-intellectualism" does not accomplish any sort of growth, and is easy to spot with its tell-tale self-indulgence and pointlessness.
Of course, you would need to define a criteria for healthy growth, or risk running into the same problem of using "progressive" as a positive descriptor (what defines progress?, etc.).
This would necessarily require a large portion of society, or just the right portions of society, to agree to a similar definition of growth and improvement. Without this, we would stagnate in this "everything's subjective" mindset, and slowly revert to the only "natural" rules, the law of the jungle.
>>25739871
Well not everyone in humanity can do these things. Some people are more beast like than others(race/genetics/enviorment) so simplistic enjoyment is what these people want to do and will.

That's the beauty of being human and having a reasoning faculty. We can assign value to anything. Everything can be "pointless", can't it? Even food and water if we choose to view it as such. It is what we choose to assign value that makes or breaks us.
>>25740061
The point isn't whether ALL humans can and do do differential equations but we have the mental faculty as a whole to do it.

>>25740161
No, water and food can't be pointless because without it we die. Baring the necessities of maintaining life everything IS pointless. It just so happens that you and I ascribe value to intellectual persuits and stimulation while the degenerates of society persue the baser stimulus.
>>25740212
Pursuits*It's obvious proper spelling isn't one of them for me..
>>25740212
>No, water and food can't be pointless because without it we die.
What if someone views life as pointless, and chooses to die early? The importance of food, water, and life, like the importance of art, can be viewed differently from person to person. Man, unlike beasts, has the power to assign as much value to life and reproduction as he pleases, rather than merely feeling them to be the most important things, as the lesser animals do.
>Baring the necessities of maintaining life
You've decided this yourself, and for yourself. Others have decided to forego life as ultimately trivial and useless.
>>25740293
The point to life is to live. Living is the point to life and that is innate. Anyone can subvert that meaning if they so desire but you can not eradicate it. Life is it's own meaning.
>>25740384
>The point to life is to live. Living is the point to life and that is innate.
For how long? If we're calling things pointless, then what's more pointless than to be brought into existence just to die shortly after, like all of those before you and all of those yet to be born?
The point of life for a beast is to live and reproduce as many times as possible before being killed and eaten by something or other. Man, with his capacity for thought, and his will to execute any plan that he formulates, can disregard this as pointless and choose to opt out. Man may do many things beasts cannot, create art, or cast it away, play the game of life, or cast it away.
>>25740448
He may cast away the game of life but that is the only meaning in his life. He may subvert this meaning all he wants but the only way he can rationalize this subversion is through his intellect; an intellect innate to living. He may perceive it as pointless but life can not be pointless because without it he could neither perceive it as pointless. The point of life is living and living as a man gives him the ability to subvert that meaning if he wants.
>>25740531
>He may cast away the game of life but that is the only meaning in his life.
Not in his life if he chooses to cast it away.
>He may subvert this meaning all he wants but the only way he can rationalize this subversion is through his intellect
Maybe exercising intellect should be considered the only point to life, then. Life, even human life, does not necessarily come with it, and a man's life is reduced to beastly survival without it. How great can a man be if his will and capacity for reasoning are stripped away from him?
>life can not be pointless because without it he could neither perceive it as pointless.
Life does not in and of itself give him intellect or reasoning, as most living things and many humans live without these things.
>The point of life is living and living as a man gives him the ability to subvert that meaning if he wants.
His mind gives him that ability.
Put simply, he can choose to disregard life itself, but he can never cast aside his will to think as he pleases. Even in the course of doing away with his life, he still has the reasoning capacity. Therefore, reason must be more precious and meaningful than life alone, as life does not guarantee it, and it cannot be subverted as life can be.

This prized intellect only arises from living. Having intellect surely means you live but living, as you've stated, doesn't necessitate intellect.
>Put simply, he can choose to disregard life itself, but he can never cast aside his will to think as he pleases. Even in the course of doing away with his life, he still has the reasoning capacity.
Unless you posit a very immediate life after death wherein we remained unchanged this can not be so. If he disregards life and subsequently dies he may no longer exercise his intellect because he has died. Intellect is linked directly to living.
>Therefore, reason must be more precious and meaningful than life alone, as life does not guarantee it, and it cannot be subverted as life can be.
As soon as you subvert life you have destroyed intellect completely.
>>25740814
Intellect always comes with life, but life certainly does not always come with intellect.
>As soon as you subvert life you have destroyed intellect completely.
If destroying your physical life was the intent that you formulated, then you have acted in accordance with your reason. At the same time, you have prematurely ended your life, and failed as a beast for not reproducing as many times as possible and living for as long as possible.
Even in destroying your physical form and subverting life, the reasoning faculty is followed.
>>25740916
I never posited the meaning of life as beastly reproduction rather I said living.
>Even in destroying your physical form and subverting life, the reasoning faculty is followed.
In order to the intellect to subvert life you must be alive in the first place. Intellect must exist in a living mind in order for intellect to subvert anything.
If you wish to say that intellect is the ultimate meaning how do you keep intellect? Invariably by staying alive. Only those who do not prize intellect subvert their own life because without it they have no intellect.
>>25741022
>If you wish to say that intellect is the ultimate meaning how do you keep intellect? Invariably by staying alive.
The aim is not so much to cling to intellect and be terrified to lose it, but to use it as you see good and fit. You may choose to subvert your own life, destroy your own brain, and be in violation of life, yet still be in accordance with your own will and reasoning.
>Only those who do not prize intellect subvert their own life because without it they have no intellect.
But your intellect is what gives you the power to make such a decision. Executing your will, especially in such a way, is utilizing your intellect in a way you deem good.
Your reasoning faculty allows you to give life whatever value you choose and make the choice to keep it or cast it away. It gives you the power to cease using your intellect and body.
yes and they're usually pretty good but it's like an unwritten rule that they have to brash trolls who insult guys.
met this girl on l4d2
>>25741122
>Your reasoning faculty allows you to give life whatever value you choose and make the choice to keep it or cast it away. It gives you the power to cease using your intellect and body.
Again I only have this reasoning faculty because I am alive. A desire to see life as meaningless or meaningful proceeds after life. Before we can reject life we have to live it, or at least, mature into our mental faculties. The meaning of life is to live and it precedes our ability to think otherwise because life is what gave us that ability.

>>25736575
I want to take the "actual girl who plays games" and tie her hands behind her back with the controller cable and fuck her silly and then blow my load all over her back and turn off the game she's playing
She'd be terrified traumatized and in a strange state of bliss
>>25741252
>Again I only have this reasoning faculty because I am alive.
A life without a reasoning faculty would be decidedly inferior to a life with one. Once again, because reason does not necessarily come with life, and primitive instances of life lacking in reason exist, I will value my intellect above simple life which demands only to be lived. With intellect, I can choose to always exercise my will, even when this may bring about the end of my life. Without it, I am limited to instincts and chained to a basic existence.
>>25741371
controllers don't have cables anymore
>>25741398
>A life without a reasoning faculty would be decidedly inferior to a life with one.
I agree completely
> Without it, I am limited to instincts and chained to a basic existence.
Without life you may not have your intellect either.
You can not prize your intellect without prizing the life that gave rise to it. You wouldn't be able to prize your intellect without life because without life you would have neither life nor intellect. Intellect proceeds after life.

i tried getting my little sis into gaming, but she refuses to play anything other than CoD. even worse, she always trying to use the mic so she can "communicate with the team", but she never even talks to them directly. she'll just talk to whoever's in the room. so she just wants them to know she's a gurl. shit's embarrassing. so i don't let her use it anymore
>>25741457
I can, however, prize my intellect over my physical life, and prove this by doing away with my body while acting in accordance with my reasoning faculty.
>>25741599
To kill intellect is to not prize it. To kill life is to kill the intellect. And to kill the intellect is to not value it.
>>25741635
>To kill intellect is to not prize it.
>And to kill the intellect is to not value it.
Again, you may choose to subvert your own life, destroy your own brain, and be in violation of life, yet still be in accordance with your own will and reasoning.
Executing your own will and acting in accordance with that you consider to be right is utilizing your intellect.
>>25741721
Utilizing; sure. But it sure isn't placing much value in it.
>>25737317
This.
Fucking bluepilled fags don't even know they're getting got
>>25741738
Value is for the bearer to determine, and then utilize their will as they see fit.
>>25741825
So, basically, art is meaningless and the only value it has is what people give it. Video games have just as much value as "fine art" and that value is nothing. What I said quite awhile ago, in fact. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Everything can be considered "pointless", if you haven't gotten that quite yet. I've wasted all this time if you haven't.
Calling something "pointless" is foolish and short-sighted.
>tfw gf always beats me at mario kart

>>25742001
Then prove their exists an inherent meaning to anything besides life itself. You posit this statement so prove it.
>>25737264
You have clearly never played Mount and Blade Warband.
>>25742064
Prove to me art is pointless. Prove to me anything is pointless. I've already given my presentation that video games lack merit and serve exclusively as a drug and business opportunity.
>>25742142
I am not positing the existence of something you are. You have to make a reasonable case as to why meaning exists rather than taking it for granted. If you can not provide a reason for the abstract thing to exist then it may as well not exist. For someone who prizes intellect more than life you'd think you would have a grasp on what "burdon of proof" means and were it lies.
And you've provided no such argument that games "serve exclusively as a driv and business opportunity." In fact, all you've done is state it as fact without backing it up with any evidence.
>>25737264
What about games that are built for multiplayer from the ground up? Stuff like CS (admittedly has microtransaction visual customization cancer) or Battlefield? Or even MOBAs, if that's your thing?
I enjoy single player and multiplayer games, and both are enjoyable in different ways. I feel much more of a sense of accomplishment when I win in an online game, and even more of one when I work with a team and lead them to victory.

Met quite a few girls on Runescape (yes, actual girls) and half of them were actually got with one being a 9/10. She was hardcore and had like 3bil exp and only really talked during afk skills.
Also met quite a few of CS:Source but they were like 14. One was 26 but batshit ugly. She's lost heaps of weight in 3 years since I last talked to her and would be a 6/10
So they do exist but not in mainstream games as those ones are mainly attention whores.

>>25742198
You said art is pointless. You never gave any proof. Where is the demand for proof there? I offered ideas as to how anything could be considered "pointless", rendering it a useless way to describe something. You didn't seem to be able to grasp this, so I thought something productive could come of a discussion. You still haven't presented these ideas in a plausible manner, and you're wandering around in circles.
Video games were developed as a way to sell electronics to customers and create an industry from the simple dopamine releases produced by playing these games. Not deeper thought, simple base enjoyment.
>>25742299
Alright, I'll remember that when confronted with an Athiest all I have to say is "Prove God doesn't exist!" Meaning is a teapot circling the Earth.
Not too mention that fine art was paid for by rich bastards for entertainment and the rich bastards enjoyed opera for the "quick dopamine" they got sitting through an entertaining show.
>>25742354
> "quick dopamine" they got sitting through an entertaining show.
Not exactly "quick dopamine", then, is it?
Opera or fine music is meant to be contemplated and considered, not for the listener to be consume it quickly and melt away in the tingly brain feelings it gives him.
>Not too mention that fine art was paid for by rich bastards for entertainment
"Rich bastards" that commissioned talented artists to painstakingly create pieces with meaning, many of which stood the test of time.
Compare with video games, where bastards just as rich funded software that blinks and bleeps to captivate unblinking plebs and get them to hand over their wallets.

You should blame capitalism and normies in general for the death of WoW. There were always females playing WoW.
My cousin plays video games. The whole does it for attention doesn't make sense because she never uses a microphone as she's almost a mute. She Plays GTA online with me and is the only person I know to actually complete a level one playthough on Demon's, Dark, and Dark souls 2. She also is the local street fighter/ pretty much any fighting game local champ for like the last 4 years now.
I haven't met anyone IRL from the opposite sex that could talk about Games or Nipshit as much as me yet. And my power level isn't that high, mind you. (At least when it comes to nipshit).
I've even met faggot normies that 420 blaze it all day erryday and post on r/pcmasterrace but they at least know the bare minimum for me to not constanza internaly every 3 minutes.
They might've not played some of the greatest games out there, and they might be incapable to go too far back if a game looks dated, but even they know that most releases for the past four years have been absolute gutter trash and we can complain about videogames during study sessions.
On the other hand, I've met three types of "gamer girls".
The first, was in my class in highschool. I was never a very social person, and still am not, but I can go through most motions without dropping spaghetti and generally people like me even if I don't reciprocate.
I was trying to gitgud at Blazblue and since I had a homebrewed PSP I was playing Continuum Shift Extend during my classroom breaks to practice combos. Back when I did this I was pretty absorbed because Hazama is a bitch to play especially if you want to get good juggles going and combo either from supers or into supers.
One of her friends asked me what I was playing, and this was a person who did not know anything about games. I think to myself that there's really no way to explain it since it's a fucking anime fighter that normal people have no idea even exists, so I tell them that they wouldn't know it even if I told them. I just said it was a fighting game.
She keeps insisting because, and here she pulls her friend over, her friend is a pretty big gamer because she's always playing games on her cellphone.Angry Birds
I try not to have an anneurism, and since they won't drop the subject, eventually I name the game, and just as I said it would happen, they had no idea what the fuck it was. (1/2)
A girl is supposedly making this game
http://dss.stephanierct.com/
Not sure whether I really believe that or not
>>25745148
This is literally the first time I've ever heard of a girl being good at games.
No duh you fucking shitlord
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQHrK7W7mGo
girls are shit at anything competitive
in any game with a leaderboard, anything in the top 25% ( and that's being generous ) you'll get a girl for maybe 100-1000 men
raiding guilds in mmos ? they're most likely than not the weak point and why you're wiping like a retard
see girl with absolutely amazing skills ? 95% chances it's a tranny
so yeah they exist but their existence is irrelevant to anything meaningful
>>25745188
well she does spend a good 75% of her time playing them. Nearly being a mute kinda makes it hard for her to make friends or get a job.
>>25745173
The second one I met was the girlfriend of one of my actual friends in Highschool. I got along with him because his nipshit powerlevel was as high as mine, and he played just as many videogames as I did.That said I haven't talked to him since we finished highschool four years ago
Now this one was your typical "not like the other girls xDD" type of girl. She dressed all in black and dyed her hair. Nowadays she'd be the kind of person you'd immediately finger out as a tumblr hipster idealogue, and maybe nowadays she is, I haven't really kept in touch. She was studying to go to art school too.
Me and him used to play fighting games on our PSPs since it was easier to just homebrew it and bring it to school to play than go to eachother's place. We both valued our space, I'd not want him at my place and I'm pretty sure he shared the same feeling.
For a while we were getting into Dissidia because we both were huge Final Fantasy fans and apparently his girlfriend had the game too. So he decided to ask her to play with both of us.
We both had at least 5 characters fully leveled with the best equipment and all our abilities unlocked, she had one character at level 20. Even by level syncing it'd never be fair since we'd keep our abilities and it was pretty obvious we were way above her skill ceiling.
The third, and last girl gamur I met was not IRL but instead this britbong that I played with on FF14. She was actually not that bad and mained a DPS role rather than healer which was rather surprising. It was the only half-decent gamer girl I actually met that was legitimately there only to play the game, too. Our guild had a teamspeak that only 6 of us ever used, so all six of us ended up becoming good friends and her gender was never really an issue either. She didn't flaunt it and as far as we were concerned she was just one of us.

>>25745231
That's true. I played Wow with a guy who was a DK tank and placed in the top 10% of logs everytime with minimal gear. Pulling as much dps as our geared dps, and being rather easy to heal (I healed). He wanted to dps so we found anot her DK tank decked out in gear and she pulled less dps than the paladin tank on single target and was always dying, and very rarely used CDs. It's not like we couldn't get shit done with her, but she was significantly worse than her undergeared counterpart (s)
>>25745434
You know something. It's one thing to hold these beliefs and shitpost about them on an imageboard. It's something else entirely to be obnoxious IRL when someone talks about it. You can thinkg CoD and Mobile Games are cancer and not be obnoxious about it outside of an actual discussion with someone else who knows what they're talking about.

The problem is that there aren't too many good stealth games out there that normies would be interested in. MGS is great but it's too crazy for normies to actually play. You either got into it young and you know what to expect from Kojima or you're going to pass on the ruse cruise.
