Spending an hour or two playing video games every day is not really viable if you lead even a somewhat busy life. What little free time you do have comes in small chunks, or is much better spent having a drink or two with friends, not playing with a toy.

Fuck yes.

I remember a moment during an X-Men movie ensemble interview where someone asked him about reading X-Men comics and his response was, "Yes... of course... I read all this comic books..." and then McAvoy or someone jumped in and saved him.

They'll be no ensemble cast to save him this time. Just Fassbender and a IGN or a Kotaku """""journalist""""" alone in a room. Pure comedy gold.

>>70268955
Bullshit, even my dad who is an ancient fag played videogames and owned a console. His driving license alone is older than I am, and I'm already in my twenties.
Fuck I was born when he was already almost 40.
And that ancient fag had three wives, two children, a stable job, and he knows what a console is.

You'd really have to be retarded not to.

I think you're overestimating the knowledge of the general public. Most people don't live in this sort of geeky, tech related internet bubble where even if you aren't into the specific hobby you still have a vague understanding of it. In his world people's hobbies are different sports or some recreational activities. Painting, activism, etc. He probably doesn't know many people who are hardcore into video games, and there's no reason to assume he's heard the term console or completely understands it if he has.

>>70269352
>not posting related pasta

These games are fun because they act as a central point with which you can generate an entire universe and story for yourself to play around with.

For example, I enjoy Woodcutter Simulator 2013. In the game you chop down trees as one of the main game points. I really like to write up stories on a notepad about what happens to each individual tree. Where does the wood go? Is it used for paper? What happens with this paper? I might, for example, write down about how a tree is chopped down and converted to paper, and some of these sheets go to an office block. I might then write about how this paper is put into a printer, but it jams when somebody attempts to perform a bulk print of child pornography. What happens to the person doing this printing is not relevant, but what is relevant is what happens to the paper. Do the police take it and destroy it? If they do, I can reflect on whether or not it was really worth chopping down that tree. I give each tree chopped down a future story and then rate based on its future whether I can say that this was a day well done.

I am starting to feel that Germans are the only people with real imagination. We need games that open up worlds inside our mind. I have gone through over 200 sheets of paper writing about my woodcutter simulator trees. I have even considered a story where the paper from one of my trees ends up in my desk, where I write on it about my stories of woodcutter 2013, however I chose not to in the end as this doesn't really make any sense because I do not exist in the gameworld.

The games exist for creative minds to expand themselves. They are fantastic and there is one for everyone.
>>

Nigga, you can cook meals that take way less than an hour to prepare.
If you need more than an hour to eat then you have bigger problems unless you're hosting guests.
And you can always prepare meals for multiple days and save a lot of time and money that way.

This is your reminder that people who say they're too "mature" for video games actually hate them because they are bad at them, or can't afford them, or are unable to immerse themselves in works of art. This is why they get so angry at gamers, but not MLP fans or Star Wars fans.

I've seen it happen. You pass them a controller and watch their uncoordinated fingers flail around as their character walks into walls and off ledges and generally gets BTFO. Then they get angry and say it's a waste of time.

It is a waste of time for them. They are unable to enjoy it, because they lack the requisite skill to play a video game competently.

Then there are those too shallow to pay attention to the game, they only see themselves as they're playing the game. Like a woman. Women don't watch films, they watch themselves being a film watcher. "Look at me, I'm watching a film!" they say to themselves for the entire duration. There are "men" like this as well. No appreciation for art or the glory of competition. They look at a video game and see only a controller and a screen, and society's preconceptions about the people who use them. Not a story, a challenge, or an immersive, interactive world.

When someone says video games are for children, ask them what they think of the game of chess. Is that for children? No, they adore chess. But when chess is played as a video game..? Thus, their hypocrisy is exposed for the world to see. It's not the video game that they hate so passionately, it's the fact that people enjoy them while they cannot.

This is what "gamers" actually believe. I can only imagine the great conversations being had while playing League of Legends. I've seen the "socializing" that's done between online gamers myself from my friends and it's non-existent, pathetic at best.

If you're so social, and that's so "productive" to your personality, then why is your personality so shitty?

Reminder people make money just playing videogames. No one makes money just watching movies or television unless they review it afterwords. This, and many other very important factors inherently make videogames more kino than film and every generation after this one will respect and love videogames more than film and televison.

I'm beyond friends. The only reason to have such wastes of time is to help you move shit from your house, but I make so much money I can just hire people to do it. I have colleagues that share my work related hobbies and people I can discuss that with, all in the joint venture to make money and gain success. Friends just for the sake of socializing is one of the biggest pitfalls of the unsuccessful.

I don't have to. Kids these days grow up playing videogames. It's all they know now. It will become an art-form just from this alone and is honestly one already. No other reasons need to be stated, even though there are other reasons you could easily find.

Healthiest amount of sleep for an average human being is 5 sleep cycles every 24 hours. A sleep cycle is 90 minutes. That is 7.5 hours of sleep, which doesn't have to be entirely uninterrupted but preferably not be interrupted mid-cycle. You can break up your sleep into 5 90 minute chunks spread out across the day, that is how cavemen apparently slept.

This. No one really wants to associate themselves with the most autistic gamers - who are usually also the most outspoken - you can mention games you like casually but if you speak passionately about them it's usually a huge tell that you're a manchild for some reason. Try being less obsessed with glorified toys. They'll never reach the heights of other art forms.

I don't need reasons when a child like you has logic like this. Film will always be a bottom of the barrel passive hobby with no social aspect. Just take videogames as a natural evolution of film and you'll understand.

I thought this for a while, but consider this:

A film director can control the speed at which his film progresses. This lets him control a bunch of stuff that helps tell the story exactly the way he wants, whereas the "pacing" of a video game is at the mercy of the player.

A film within a game is still in the medium of film, so the distinction doesn't apply.

I still think video games are generally superior to film for certain genres though (action, adventure, horror etc.). What they lack in some areas, they more than make up for in others.

Any true fan of the horror genre knows that videogames absolutely destroy film for entertainment value now. Modern games are 100x scarier than any film that exists.

You can't do something on autopilot while listening to something unrelated?

After a certain amount of time on a game it becomes routine, like walking a dog or washing the dishes. You can hold a conversation while doing those things, it's not much harder to absorb a story or other info while using a tank to defend a flag on Battlefield.
