electricity for entertainment was a mistake

Not much. Let them have their fun and nostalgia, for its theirs and they have nothing else. Not like you can do anything about it. To be upset or really care strongly serves to only fuck your own shit up more mentally.
oh look its the annoying nostalgia user again
>it's 2013
>you wake up at 2pm

>nothing but team wipes and time
first year after dropping out was kino
Nostalgia can hit you anyway, even if that was a bad period. I'm nostalgic for when I was a fat alcoholic, now I fixed both those things and I feel worse. Self improvement is a meme.

People having nostalgia for the time period that their childhood was in?
I am absolutely outraged.

Good times
>What do you think of this?
It reminds me that I am getting old. In 2013 high school was a long time ago.
no its not user. you are healthy now. be a depressed skinny sober person
zoomers are having nostalgia to a time when they were too young and naive to realize what a horrible place the world is and that now they're trapped in a system that doesn't value or appreciate them and also twelve years from now our environment will be so horribly ruined that the planet will start to become unlivable

>you drink Mountain Dew and eat cheap leftover pizza all night
>you got nothing but time
I've been a neet since 2011
2011-2018 feels like one long blur of a month
things that happened 4-5 years ago literally feel like yesterday. watching the decline of Jow Forums into a complete normal person website has been like a fever dream
oh sorry 2019*. i thought it was still 2018
That's not even real nostalgia. That's just remembering something. Real nostalgia takes you back to a different era. If you're not a 90s kid, you're not having real nostalgia.
>It's 2013
>You and your friends spent the best day ever, like every day talking about anime and vidya
>You all sing together some Slipknot song
>You have lunch together, share retarded shit, shock content when it wasn't as easy to find or as popular
>School finishes, you walk home with your crush and buy some anime badges straight out of google images for your backpack on the way
>You go home and start looking at ragecomics when they were still alive
>Youwatch an episode of Attack on titan and then talk about it with your friends on facebook
>You jack off 1-3 times with literally any kind of vanilla porn because then you still felt something
>Play minecraft with your buddies
>You read a creppypasta orplay the latest shitty jumpscare based horror game before going to sleep or going on a binge.
>You wanted to grow up
>Not knowing these moments
>this feelings, these friends, would never come back.
Actual 18 year old zoomer here, I don't care anyone makes fun of me, this was my puberty-early teens, this is what I'm fond of, as you are fond of other things.
Regardless of what you lived, in the end, we all failed at some point and that's why we're here, right?
I've been a neet almost as long but inbetween the end of 2011 to now, I worked maybe 14 months total from then. time just melts together..almost 30 and still feel 14
>2013
>shock content wasn't easy to find
dumb zoomer
thats not true. the planet has gone through way worse kek. dont believe that bs climate thing. believe how much money that "cause" brings in. thats your answer
It wasn't as common were I lived, in my country, we were a few years back in technology, and finding as a little a decent porn site, would require some serious computer dwelling, or at least, that's how I see it.
>its 2013
>in first year uni
>room mate snitches on me for downloading lolicon hentai
>get kicked out of university (canadian)
>have to go to therapist for next year explaning they are 300 years old, not real and drawn
that's how my 2013 went
Why mock them when nostalgia is all we have left by now?
story time??? sounds pretty crazy
>and you got nothing but time
I used to believe this.
>tfw used to come to Jow Forums because it was the one place where I felt at home and as I genuinely related to all the shut in aspies here
>with every passing year I get less and less of this feeling of connection due to the increase in normalfag zoomers who think they're "robots" because Stacey didn't text them back
>zoomers don't see the internet in the same way as we used to. they don't use the internet as an escape from reality but rather just an extension of reality.
>no longer does this place actively revile the outside world but rather worship it and spend the entire time discussing it
>where I once came to retreat from everything I found repellent about the outside world has turned into nothing but a constant reminder of those things
iktf
Felt that way a number of years back so I attempted to escape from here too, managed somehow to live life on here and outside it and found a happy middle ground in a fucked up way on both sides.
Over the years more like fucking decades by now holy shit I learned that's just part of life. You find something you enjoy, it will become popular, it will turn to shit. But slowly. Really slowly, and before you realise it you feel alienated and isolated in a place you once held so dear. So you move on to another place and the cycle starts anew.
>doing computer engineering at a canadian university
>had a random room mate (wasn't able to get a single room)
>room mate is annoying pretentious faggot
>our desks are side by side
>was going through exhentai and downloading some touhou guro
>i had to take a shit badly so i just left my monitor on and left the room (room mate wasn't in the room at the time)
>i come back 30 minutes later and he is staring at my monitor and is scared (came in when i was in washroom)
>tells on the RA
>the RA says she will tell the university
>i get told that i'm suspended
i was considering just killing myself at this point, i didn't know anyone at the the university and was a khhv virgin (still am)
>tell parents, they need to pick me up
>have to tell them what happened
they are worried because what happens sounds like i'm into pizza. my mom makes me sign up to therapy for a year and i've been a NEET since 2018 september, started uni again. can't even focus because i haven't studied for 5 years, already have a shit gpa.
at least you get a second chance. thats sucks dude porn really fucks shit up when you are over age. try and quit maybe? your roomate sounds like a bitch but maybe he though he was doing the right thing idk. crazy story tho lol
I went to uni in 2013. It was an okay time, I think the end of 2013 was when I dated a reverse trap.
I'm sorry I chickened out of that, R, I think we could have been good for each other.
let's combat them with making ironic robot nostalgia memes
>born 98
>have nostalgia for crps and obscure titles
in one sense I'm glad I got to have objectively better vidya experiences, but at the same time it was isolating in that everyone played normie games while I played hours of stuff like daggerfall, system shock, thief, etc, any way a means of connecting with your peers is handicapped has long term consequences.
what school? just based on where we are I'm assuming UW?
Why do people give such a fuck about what people find nostalgic? Yeah, younger people are going to be nostalgic for newer games obviously. We played a ton of shit when we were growing up that we are probably nostalgic for, despite its quality. If you're telling me that everything you played was good, you're lying to yourself.
lolwut, guro is illegal in canada?
yup, go to a different uni now
You have nostalgia for Complex regional pain syndrome?
Honestly I don't feel modern games are any better than they were 10 years ago. In fact I think they are way worse than 10 years ago. Not subjectively but objectively. Sure fancy graphics and nice cutscenes but gameplay sucks ass. I keep finding myself coming back to the same games I played 20 years ago instead of playing new games. I have no interest in competitive multiplayer or lootbox shit and that is all the industry had to offer for a loong time now. The only games worth acknowledging anymore are indie games and they are really hit or miss with large gaps in quality.
I know games had problems 20 years ago, but not these absolute deal breaker problems of today. Let's be honest who will remember the fps flavor of the day in 10 years? 20? You won't even be able to play it by then cause all the server will have been killed by then.
2013 was the last good year for cod
as someone who owns every major cod from finest hour thru infinite warfare, i can confirm that
2007-13 also had halo 3 and reach my dude
>2013

>wished it could stay like that forever
It was the first time in my life I never had to worry about anything. i miss it so much.
haha, it's such an autistic school that I'm kind of glad I ended up here. most people I know go straight from class to home, are khhv, are probably in another thread on this board right now. do you mind sharing where you currently are? mech eng btw
>it's 2013
>wake up
>shitpost on Jow Forums
It was always going to happen. I just wish that gaming could have at least remained great like the prior years. It got normatized which then meant that the more niche hardcore type of games were going to have a much harder time standing out like before.
meant crpgs, not crps, my bad.
I think being hostile toward the modern industry isn't very fair, I think it was mostly terrible between 2007-2014, but with gen 8 everything is picking up again really well. I had a lot of fun with deus ex 4, hitman 2016/18, re7 and re2, new zelda, splatoon, pillars of eternity 1 & 2. The fact a game like kingdome come can come out and be a massive success is awesome, even sekiro is a genuine tenchu successor which is amazing.
competitive multiplayer is absolutely trash I agree though, it's poisoning the well and taking a lot of attention from great games. I am very optimistic though, so much good quality in just a couple of years.
I'm gonna end up being nostalgic for your dogshit threads that are exactly the same and that you spam every single day.
Hitman 2016/18 are honestly the two games that keep my hope for industry from dying. I could spend hours talking about the level design it's just the best I have seen in years. Can't comment much on Zelda and Splatoon cause I never been much into Nintendo games desu. Deus Ex 4 was kinda meh for me, not bad, kinda good, just bland. But I feel the love and nostalgia for CRPGs.
>Zoomers dont even know how golden the early 2000s were

But they keep releasing the same god damn maps in CoD

Theres that fucking phrase again. Thats the tipoff right there
>waaaah waaah there are people that grew up in different years than i did waaaaaaah
you are more of a child than those children are
>t. retard.
Things have been unironically going wrong since 2007. We live in the worst possible timeline and you are the proof.
>It's 2013
>It's now 2019
>Where the fuck did 6 years of my life go?
Im 24. You are just upset that there are people who were born in a different year than you did. 2007 was when "everything went to shit" FOR YOU because thats when you grew up and realized just how much of a beta loser you really are. You'll see similar threads in a couple years about how kids the new generation is nostalgic for "the time when everything went to shit", and then the same for the generation that comes after them ad nauseum.
BO2 was probably the last COD that had a decent multiplayer component, probably because it was the last game they made before deciding to turn their games into Platformers for some reason
No everything went to shit after 2007 due to the financial crisis and various problems resulting from that. Why would I care about other generations nostalgia?
underrated post right hurr
damn, ME!ME!ME! Was the shit though
How is that any different for me having nostalgia for 2006? Coming home, logging into WoW, saying hi to all my guildmates as we talkabout stupid stuff while leveling?

Oh for fucks sake not this thread again
>era where everything went to shit
please explain
everybody loves there childhood. when you were kids playing bo2 you didnt care about the fucked economy. you cared about your games, plus bo2 was a great game. and people remember playing it with their childhood friends.
why would you be angry?
2007-2009 was a different cultural era from 2010-2013. In the former era, people were still hopeful that the post-9/11 and great recession hardships would pass and give way to a glorious technological future in the next decade which would represent the 21st century they were promised during the 90's. Then the early 2010's set in, and the spell was broken. The seeds for things going to shit were planted throughout the late 20th century and sprouted on 9/11/2001, but the shit didn't begin to stink until 2007, and it didn't become impossible to escape from or ignore until this decade. Then 2014/2015 hit, and we entered the clown world.
6 years ago was such a short time. How the fuck are you nostalgic for it? It just feels forced.
everybody loves the years from 12-15 unless they have some real personal tragady. kids playing bo2 dont care about the shit economy. they are nostalgic about the time where they could do nothing but play there favourite games with all their friends.
why would you be mad
Kanye made the best music. That era was probably when everything got good
The Internet died before you were born, it's not just nostalgia.
not gonna lie, bo2 is better than everything that has come out since CoD wise
Millenials:
