VIDEOGAMES

I dont think anybody on Jow Forums thinks playing videogames as a child or teen is bad. In fact, it does help develop hand-eye coordination and problem-solving skills. But at what age is it appropriate to stop playing video games when it starts to become a problem?

And they say white women ate the most loyal lmao

Doesn't your question contain its own answer, there? If playing vidya causes you no problems - for what reason would you stop?
But on the contrary I would argue that kids and teens be kept far away from vidya. That is the new vehicle for poz.

Cute couple :^)

If you have your shit together, who cares? Everyone needs an escape, don't care if you smoke weed, drink alcohol or play video games. Are you contributing to society or bettering yourself? Then do whatever the fuck you want in your free time.

rather ask when we should stop watching tv. games are interactive entertainment at least.

Do they fuck or what?

age 17. you enter the height of your mind's capacity and empty the reservoir on game-specific vidya that will be useless in 3 years. you grow up to be a retard.
now that we've heard what israel thinks, does anyone else have some input on this?

t b h I feel bad for that dude she must get more dolled up for these streams than for him on his birthday

Don't ever settle down with professional whores kids

22-25. Shrug off the chains of prolonged adolescence and become a man. Its best to wean off video games on to reading and productive hobbies

The way I figure it she got molested and she picked a gook because he is non-threatening to her.
Lot of girls go lesbian because a man abused them and they find it too hard to be intimate with men.
I'm sure they fuck but not much.
I do see WF+AM sometimes and it's usually a 6-7/10 blonde girl and an above average Asian with pale skin and with no visible baldness.

I quit playing video games months ago (I'm 22) when I started getting into martial arts. I've played maybe 30 mins to an hour worth of video games in the 2-3 months (only because some old friends requested my help on a game I used to play). Nowadays my free time is spent exercising for the most part (martial arts, weight lifting, firearms training, etc.). I gotta say, I don't miss video games, even though I was a shut in nerd in my teenage years. If you're addicted to video games, or have a hard time breaking away from them, I highly suggest some kind of martial arts (I do BJJ, Judo, TKD, and Muay Thai). It really changes your perspectives.

This is exactly how you do it, replace a detrimental hobby with something more productive.

lol nigga got a hairline like the gerber baby

Dude I've lost 20 pounds of fat over the last 3 months, and replaced some of it with muscle. Martial arts 3 days a week (4 times a week), plus weight lifting 3 days a week (without dieting) really helps you thin out. I've decided to quit drinking just to aid my weight loss. I was telling myself for 2 years "once I get in shape I'll go start martial arts" well I never got in shape doing what I was doing. So I decided fuck it, and went, and now I'm dropping fat, and building muscle quickly, and I'm learning how to defend myself. It's much better than wasting away playing video games and eating potato chips slowly becoming jabba the fucking hutt!

*rip bra*
*sllrrrrrpppp*
*smack*
fwwaaaahhhh
Yep, that's how we do as white people.

You don't lose weight by working out unless you're working out hours a day, the best way to lose weight is to just eat less.

Lol go fuck yourself autistic chink and just jerk off to your BLACKED folder like a cuck you are.

Who watches TV still?

Women.

Sadly it's true

This.

Ah, makes sense.

She cucks him with Chad so who cares.

I see glimpses of what is on it, on my boomer parents' TV.
Two things about TV ads now:
*ads that specifically target Chinese money.
*promotions for shows that are largely non-verbal.
Like, a presenter says "there's gonna be a SECRET" on the next episode.
And then clips of women making stupid faces and surprised noises.

never
only if it becomes the center of your life, where you are more interested in gaming than growing as an individual does it become a problem

otherwise its just the modern equivalent of sitting to watch tv with a beer / listen to radio / reading books

Doesnt work for me. I've been boxing for years and going to gym, but I still like to play a game of dota in my free time. I dont play anything else but its just because i dont find any new games appealing. If somerhing good comes along i'll play it for sure.

u aight wite boi

I exercise alot. An hour and thirty mins of BJJ 2-3 days a week. An hour and thirty mins of Judo 2 days a week, and an hour and thirty mins of Muay Thai 2 days a week (yes there's some overlap. Plus 30 mins to an hour of working out on my heavy bag, and speed bag every day. As well as 30-45 mins of weight lifting, and 30 mins of cardio 4 days a week (again overlap). So yes I work out alot nowadays. This is excluding the 1+ of time I spend swimming in my pool every day (now that it's summer) and going out shooting every other day (I walk out in full kit (plate carrier, bump helmet with gopro- or nightvision depending on time, ear protection, 8+ lb rifle, etc.). So yes I get quite a bit of exercise. I had to replace my time wasting away on video games with various functional hobbies, and my life has been much better for it. I don't regret it at all.

OP, there's no reason to stop getting getting fucked by men, just don't make a living at it or wear the T-shirt.

Bullshit. I havent decided how I feel about video games yet. On one hand theyre a waste of time, on the other hand there are 1000 more degenerate things you could be doing, and people need hobbies. However, getting your children into vidya and then expecting them to stop at adulthood is cruel and moronic. Vidya is bad? Fine, dont let them play at all. There are plenty of "productive" hobbies children can do. Teach your kids martial arts or fishing or fixing cars or whatever you think a real hobby is. But dont use video games as a babysitter while you drink beer and watch football and then complain they still play them as an adult.

I play video games occasionally and I'm 41, I play mainly wargames like War in the East, Mius-Front etc, although I sometimes play a bit of football manager and I do like realistic flight sims (Falcon 4, DCS). I just enjoy strategy and simulation gaming, it doesn't feel at all degenerate to me, they are intellectually challenging and in some cases really require a lot of focus and concentration, understanding of military history, doctrine etc helps and these are things I've always been interested in. I tend to play games that reflect the type of books I like to read, in fact some of the books I have read have actually improved the experience of playing some games, for example Liddell Hart's masterpiece on military strategy contained all kinds of gems that helped me succeed in several strategy games.

For me the most important thing is moderation, I play perhaps 2 - 4 hours per week, although not necessarily every week, I don't watch TV, which for me is far more damaging, TV viewers literally vegetate and passively absorb whatever trash is beamed at them, at least with gaming the player is involved in what's happening and has to pay attention, make decisions and try to win.

maybe you should fill some of your free time with other martial arts. BJJ and Judo are great exercise, and actual fighting if you find yourself in one. The less time you spend on video games the better. The amount of money I spent on video games in my life is depressing, and I'm only 22. I wish I would've spent it on something more useful like firearms. I could have a much better kit than I'm sporting now. Before I went back to college I was making 30k+ a year rent free, and paying virtually no utilities aside from my car payment and gas. Yet I wasted thousands (if not more) on video games.... It was a big fucking mistake on my part.

DCS has some nice Helo modules, black shark, Gazelle, Huey etc, not cheap but I understand they are excellent, I'm more into fixed wing sims.

Man i have a job and live with my gf. I dont have much more free time and energy. Its nice to sit down for 40 - 60 min and just turn of your brain. At least for me.

This Asian fuckboi looks much better than a amerimutt next to him. I don't understand why he didn't find someone better.

This very hard

i play DCS cause i like planes.

when you grow up..........

This image, my man.

Depends on the vidya, you're probably gonna learn a little marksmanship and teamwork in a game like ARMA, and in a nogun it's not such a bad substitute to going on chaturbate

Yeah she does not look top quality, the face is probably covered in 2-3mm of makeup.
Same thing with whites going after asians, they don't know what the quality they should seek after is, or rather are unable to attain it.

I just can't enjoy videogames anymore. Halo sucks now. So does battlefield. GTA is pay to win. Far cry 5 is so cliche and the ai is just terrible. I can usually ignore the forced diversity for the sake of good gameplay, but it seems like all games are trying to cater to casual audiences, ruining the entire industry.

I don't think anyone on Jow Forums thinks reading books as a child or teen is bad. In fact, it does help developing imagination and visualization skills. But at what age is it appropriate to stop reading books when it starts to become a problem?

Just a suggestion; worry about your own life, and leave everyone to live theirs.

I don't really think you have a problem then

cool, vag is still tight.

YOU are funnay

*grabs sides
hahahaahahahahaah

He Cute

Anything beyond 25 and you have a problem.

>In fact, it does help develop hand-eye coordination and problem-solving skills
Any competitive physical activity will achieve the same results.

I just play BallisticNG, Orders of Battle and Endless Space 2 nowday.

>This completely arbitrary age.

Try using your brain user

I stopped caring about shit like Cowadooty, DiversityField, and the carbon copy indy games. I only ever really play racing games or Dark Souls, maybe with an old Tony Hawk game in there too.
So here I am, doing everything I can. Growing older all the time, feeling younger in my mind.

ASIA FOR THE ASIANS, AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY!

Everybody says there is this RACE problem. Everybody says this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.

The Netherlands and Belgium are just as crowded as Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.

Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.

What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY black country and ONLY into black countries?

How long would it take anyone to realize I’m not talking about a RACE problem. I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem?

And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn’t object to this?

But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives agree that I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews.

They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white.

Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.

I'd say 18

Nobody going to point out that she's wearing her underwear incorrectly?

The entire entertainment industry could have great uses for education and formation but instead they're used for zombification.
Therefore videogames are bad AT ANY AGE.
I stopped enjoying videogames around 28yo and probably a big part of it is due to games being more trash and dumbed down every year.
But if games were good, engaging, told good stories, etc... I think that, with moderation, videogames would be interesting from 10 to 25yo tops.

Agreed. Vidya will distract you from real life goals and it will take away your motivation to do other important things in real life. Combine that with porn and you have a real life wrecker.

when you do it too much. my 50 year old mother played portal for the first time a few month ago

That was actually pretty damn funny. Upboat.

This, far worst things than vdeogames

Dota is the worst bruh I feel you

when it starts to affect work/uni..
If you are taking days off and going in late because u cant tear urself away from a game.. then you have a problem

Depends, if you were like me you did nothing else but play video games. Could've done so much more ith my life at that point. Only thing I don't regret out of all the games I've played is Halo 2

he's right though.
if you don't need to "get away from it all" once in a while you're not challenging yourself enough.or maybe you're Buddha

Yeah I heard a similar story from a heroin addict, about his dad being into heroin as well and all.

Wtf is this sluttery? It's cringey as hell.

People don't understand why killing other people is wrong.
They don't understand WHY killers in the military after they come home they get on a self-destructive path.
So why is that?!
As the act of killing gets internalized a victim becomes an idea and that idea becomes a feeling so you're basically killing something that is part of you psyche, so the more you think it's right to kill someone the more you're in agreement with self-destructive behavior at a subconscious level.
Same goes for violent video games.

>my dad is 40
Go away, kiddo.

underwear? she's not having her digits on the triggers. What kind of game is she playing?

living the dream

I have been playing video games since 1976 (Binatone TV Master Mk 6 with gun).

Don't plan on stopping any time soon.

In that time I've been married twice, raised a kid and two stepkids, and held down jobs including being a mainframe system programmer.

Only once has it been a negative - I took a sickie one day to finish the level of Dungeon Master (Atari ST) that was consuming my life (teleport rooms...). I wouldn't have been any use at work - all I could think about was the flow patterns from the teleport fields, which changed your destination depending on your orientation as you entered.

I still own my Jaguar, a SNES, two Gamecubes, three Dreamcasts, the Xbox, the 360, the XBone and the PS2, 3 and 4. I'm still gutted I sold my hardware Saturn, as emulation on that still isn't great.

Marvellous hobby. Not planning on quitting any time soon as long as I have working thumbs.

are you good at them or are you losing your edge

The average gamer is 25+

you are gay if you were watching the controller sorry user

i might start to beat up all asian shitskins i see

They're just rolled up on her right hip.

There's nothing wrong with playing games. But don't become a addicted loser who players more than a few hours.

I stopped enjoying games when I was 17 years old but still play sometimes when I have friends over. Or have to entertain little kids who visit our home.

no age is appropriate. sports, instruments, drawing, sculpting can help hand eye coordination too and build skills you use your entire life. i was too poor to afford videogames when i was a kid so I had to find other ways to pass the time and now i consider my childhood a blessing.

My only real friends are the activities I get to do by myself. People throughout my life have destroyed my trust and hurt me repeatedly, leaving me broken and jaded. I don’t care that you think that me beating myself up doing rigorous physical activities is not healthy, nor do I care that you don’t like the pixels I’m enjoying on a screen. I don’t care what you do, I just hope you are happy doing it, as long as you don’t hurt other people doing it.

Unless you know the limits, I don't see a problem.

But honestly I haven't enjoyed the game since The Witcher 3

In the US, Beaners that are too dumb and scared of phones and the internet are the lion's share of TV watchers.
It's why viewership of univision and telebeaner have skyrocketed; humans went to other things while subhumans stuck with television

Women, boomers, niggers, beaners, children, retards, unemployed stoner NEETs whose balls shrink more every day.

I've played videogames all my life but gradually, as I age, they have become less interesting. The industry has become geared towards making blockbusters and all the games look and feel the same. There is no creativity or true innovation. I can't be bothered with videogames anymore. There's lots of other things to do in the World. I'm 46 fyi.

The best way to lose weight is to stop eating carbs and sugars.I eat high fat low carb diet. I eat only 30 carbs a day and drink lot more water. I lost 75 pounds in three months. My routine was :
>4.30- wake up
>4.45- Running on empty stomach
>5.30- Shower and breakfast
>6.00- Work
>10.00- Banana Protein Shake
>10.30- Work
>14.00- Lunch
>14.30- Free time
>18.00- Banana Protein Shake 2
>18.30- Gym Lifting
>20.00- Dinner
>20.30- Free time
>22.00- Sleep

Usually I am tired and sleep by 21.00 or 21.30. I followed this routine like a monk for six months.

After doing this for six months, I have more energy to do stuff. I'm never tired. Earlier I was invisible to girls. Now they eye-rape and are more "touchy". They feel my arms at every opportunity. I have had girls openly flirting with me in front of their bf. Girls used to maintain distance from me in public transport. 3 weeks back, a middle aged lady couldn't stop rubbing her butt against my crotch. Intentionally or not, I was embarrassed and I had to push her away because of my boner. It is like living in another world.

Is this a twitch thot? If it is how is it still on?
