I'm getting rid of all my games, all of them, absolutely all of them.
Descent, Doom, Diablo, Empire Earth, Age of Empires, Age of Mythology, and hundreds of other games I've packed them all into a box. I'm going to take them to some guy who might buy them but he probably won't take any of these games as they're PC games. After that I'm just going to put them to the curb.
I already got rid of all my consoles and their games and I'm taking the last of my game stuff (some gameboys and other random shit) and getting rid of it.
My parents have been rather sad about me not playing games anymore. They bought me an Xbox One a few months ago but I played it a bit, found it was like a chore, and gave up. When I used to play Xbox 360 and play on XBL, I always was maxed out on friends, and would talk to everyone and lots of people enjoyed my company.
When I started getting into imageboards at 15 I gradually moved away more and more from games. Now at 24 I haven't really played much of anything at all in a year. It's because of how fucking shit games are these days. It's all just copy and paste game mechanics and code with some maybe somewhat altered art and 3D models and animations. Most of it's just so fucking shit, people don't make games that are infinitely fun to replay over and over anymore. I mostly last few years only played games I was developing myself because I have the freedom to make what I want and to have lots of fun. Now though I don't have time for that shit and there's so many bullshit issues with privacy, with commercialization, with licensing, and so on I just fucking hate technology right now. So I haven't posted on a Holla Forums board in years and I do continue to post on Holla Forums fairly regularly but it's always a techpocalypse these days with pajeets turning out shitty code and everything being fucked up.
Nowadays I'm going practically Amish. I just use my tablet to read books and my computer for shitposting on imageboards. I'm tired of problems with imageboards though (shitty moderation on most boards, global site issues, etc.) so I'm mostly lurking these days and just trying to help things along in the background while NEETs continue to shitpost and make most of the content on here.
Anyone else just wanting to opt-out? I look at all my old games I put in this box here and so many of them were legitimately fun, awesome games, that were worth playing for thousands of hours each. I don't give a shit about any new games, Minecraft would be the newest game that I actually have liked and I also like to play Dota 2 sometimes. Both games are available on linux.
All the new games out right now, including everything available on the Xbox One platform, is shit to me. I enjoy my life now more working, doing various hobbies, and reading and contemplating a shitload of metaphysics.
Do you guys think anyone will even want to pay for any of muh old games? It's probably all available as free downloads online anyways.
This might be my last post ever on Holla Forums so I'm just going to say it here: goodbye. In the next life, or maybe after some serious changes in technology maybe 10 or 20 years from now, I might start playing games again; but I doubt it. The golden age of gaming ended awhile ago and I don't really have the time to be a game-dev any longer to try and bring back the greatness of the past into this new age. Soon as I have enough money saved up I'll probably just marry a Mennonite woman as I am Dutch/German and dress and live like them for the most part.
