This generation will end keyboards, mice and controllers and therefore ruin vidya forever.
>>321925586
that's probably not real
>there's an entire generation who didn't learn to type 100ish wpm just from playing Brood War
>>321925714
Denial
Touch screens will never fully replace keyboards in our lifetime.
As long as people have to write anything longer than emails, the majority will need real keyboards. You'd need a special brand of masochism to type essays of thousands of words with a touchscreen.
>>321925872
if it is real it's probably to cause less noise in the bus
>>321925746

>>321925586
Nah normalfags like shooters too much. Controllers will stay at the very least
>>321925586
Nobody says that.
>>321926014
if it's swipe/multitouch, you can easily get a decent wpm. It requires a bit of practice. But not impossible
>>321925586
That's fucking stupid anon. Touch controls are worse than controllers, nobody in their right mind would ever pick touch controls over controllers let alone key board and mouse.
>>321925586
What kind of fucking faggot would type on their laptop like that? My hands are hurting just looking at how uncomfortable that would be.

Now I know what my grandparents felt like
Normalfags doesn't care about touch screen games anymore, the big thing now is eSports, walking simulators and let's plays, you need keyboard, mouse and controllers for that.
>>321926462
It's because there is no tactile feedback that lets your brain know your fingers are in the correct position.
Home keys are there for a reason.
Touchscreen is completely flat.
It will never be faster than a regular keyboard for the vast majority.
>>321925586
Touchscreens only work well for phones, keyboards will always be the best for a PC or laptop
>>321926362

>>321930079

>>321929363
>Fighting
>Racing
>Platforming
>RPGs with good interfaces
Most of the keyboard-exclusive genres (Strategy, simulator, roguelike with lots of keybinds) are niche titles now. FPS is still the king, though.
>>321930079
Sm4sh isn't a fighting game
>>321930079
Assuming we're leaving out specialized peripherals like racing wheels then I'm gonna go ahead and say it's better for sports games, racing games, third person hack n slash, platformers, etc.
>>321930337
Depends if the RPG is designed for PC or not. Like The Witcher 2 UI's was very clearly designed for consoles so playing that with a controler isn't too bad.

also just because some place has 180 requirement doesnt mean everywhere else should too.

keyboards are useful at workstations and for typing lots of things
the future of tech is that half of everyone will learn how to use keyboards, and the other half will be using touchscreen phones for everything
Most of this applies to the third world though, most first worlders are taught keyboarding and realize the value of it, as their WPM is higher. This means they can do shit faster which is a thing everyone wants to do unless you're a fucking monkey BR shit playing dota.

camwhore is a more pleasant profession than porn if you cant make it big.
There is a strange phenomenon that happens nowdays. Older people who typically disregarded technology are winding up with smart phones and touch screen computers now. So while usually you'd think younger people are naive to old technology, it's just the opposite now. You'll see old people borrow your laptop and keep making the mistake of rubbing their fingers on the screen thinking it's touchscreen. Also, Apple flipped around. What was usually for teenage hipsters is now for old people. Most Applefags I see are people in their 60s, since they're ironically not very tech saavy and have it in their mind that it's most certainly the best.

Hack and slash now means things like Devil May Cry and God of War, which is slowly being replaced with the much more retarded sounding "character action game".
The same way shooters used to mean things like Gradius and R-Type but now those are shoot em ups and shooters refer to FPS games.
Though I increasingly hear people call Halo a "run and gun" (Metal Slug/Shock Troopers) so who the fuck knows anymore.

How ironic it is for you to call anybody pathetic.
Also anon, you don't need an account to use the damned thing, making an account for the test will just result in random words rather than a fixed one. Regardless, being able to pull a good WPM IS a matter of practice and experience, so even if he did the test multiple times, it would be dumb to criticize him for it. But disregard me and keep mocking him if it makes you feel better about yourself.
>>321925965
