Believe it or not, I've looked but I haven't found anything that suits me
What about the jealous boyfriend one. Not great but better that this. Or gru, but from the pov of companies explaining.
The "opinion" memes can also be used. Eg. The Lisa in front of projector meme for an opinion you think is based or the change my mind meme if you think your opinion is unpopular.
Edit: Actually I think any "opponent" meme might fit this better. Some examples are the bane meme and the yugi vs kaiba meme.
I get your point but this meme format is wrong I think.
I came here to say the same thing and you already said it. Agreed.
You boot up your computer, you spend thousands over the course of 10 years to keep it up to date and worked hard in your career to be able to afford the hardware to play games on beautiful settings. It hums and the sound of the fans is a satisfying one that quickly fades when you open steam.
Your friends are all online but nobody ever seems to actually be, statuses from always on computers and cell phones giving way to fake signals and hope. Realizing it's just going to be you it's time to look through the diner menu that is steam. You scan your games and realize there's nothing that really speaks to you so you open a new one you've been trying to make time for. 10 minutes into the game and interacting with the game you think to yourself how this wasn't what you wanted and you save and again look through the menu.
You play ComfortGame, one you're intimately familiar with to get a feeling of satisfaction doing well on something familiar. At first it feels warm and fuzzy like a deep nostalgia but that too fades and you realize it's the same game you've always played: the disappointment hits you like frozen pizza.
You pause the game and look at the things you wanted to play and you realize that what you were looking for in the first place was a sense of belonging and favor in a world not your own you so desperately wish to wash from your mind. Then the true realization: it will not come. You've spent so much of your time trying to make it happen that you lost all the parts of you along the way that made it fun in the first place.
I guess what I'm trying to say here in a roundabout way is I just really hate sauerkraut.
Sir please dont type this out again. I'm trying to be in my sigma male Thomas Shelby Patrick Bateman Bruce Wayne Dark personality era and reality checks like this just ruin my vibe sir.
Yes that was me once
Crippling depression is not the default for most gamers.
I read this entirely in Max Payne's voice from the beginning.
My Rx580 8gb is holding up surprisingly well. I bought stray and horizon zero darn (I’m keeping that spelling, I like it) and they are running really well. I shied away from post 2019 games because I was afraid my pc would burn, but I’ve been incorrect.
1080p/6o fps ultra settings in Stray. Drops only to 40 fps in horizon on all high.
Both in Linux via proton and while recording using an open source version of shadowplay
Yep, vulkan and FSR/DLSS are giving more longevity to GPUs, CPUs are now the bottleneck, suddenly I can't play any 2023 game without heavy stuttering because I only have a Ryzen 3200G.
Sorry... Did you write 60 with an o?
Anyway, I recently bought a 4080, but I'm genuinely only playing stuff like Dave the Diver, so I seriously don't need it at all. I'm having some serious buyer's remorse
I may be under the influence of cough medication. Nothing like being sick during the holidays
the thing is 0 and o are right next to each other on the kb so its not actually as crazy of a typo as it might look
Hmm... Yeah, I think you're right. Not as bizarre as I first thought
I feel you. I'm sick as well today. Merry Christmas, and git gud soon :)
You too! Merry Christmas!
Power to you! I feel like gaming is widening up and becoming less of a hardware race.
The only reason I put high end stuff in my machine is because I'm a Blender artist, but most of the games I play barely make it churn.
For light modeling and developing the old MSI laptop I got passed down with 12GB of RAM and a 960M in it is handling just gloriously after putting an NVME and EndeavourOS on it! It'll emulate stuff and play 95% of my entire library just fine.
It's a nice time.
Now if only I could FIND the time...
I only play realistic games like Forklift Simulator 2023
I been playing a lot of ps1 emulation.. ngl that shit hits different
After some bad luck with finances and the two laptops I bought in the past 10 years, I had to fall back to my 2011 PC. And what can I say - it does everything I need. 2012 games in max, 2015 games good enough, professional back-end programming - surprisingly - still to modern-day perfection.
I found that after the level of KOTOR 2 / Fallout 3, extra graphics does not mean extra fun. Why would it have to look like a live-action movie? I could just watch an actual movie, or go outside.
I wonder if my old 2000s 939-socket MB would still be good enough if we weren't pushed to buy something newer. Those are the ones for the first consumer 64 bit Athlon CPUs, and could be upgraded with dual-core Opteron later on. We could all play Star Wars Galaxies and Fallout 3 and be happy.
I'm waiting for the video game that turns out to be just controls for a kill robot downtown
Rick and Morty got it right with their hyper realistic gaming console.
"This guy has no social security number for Roy!"
"What the hell, Morty, you beat cancer and you went back to the CARPET STORE?!?!"
I play DOTA FML
DOTA is incredible if you're okay with losing
What about to play tabg? People iterally have rtx 4090s and still have 40 fps.
Of course not. The RTX8675309 is much better
I'd say the unrealistic parts of games are the things that make it fun.
Like respawning in fps.
Not having to wait to race on sunday in a racing game.
The quick improving of your skills in an rpg.
The fully obedient soldiers in a strategy game.
I have to admit that picking up Cyberpunk 2077 when you've never played an realistic game before is really an experience. Although I am only running a 6600XT, the graphics still blew my mind
But no, I don't need to have ultra ray tracing water reflection mirror image boob sweat realism either.
This is why I tend to just play indie games anymore. I absolutely love cartoon like and unrealistic graphics a lot more than their realistic counterparts. It's the same reason I love animation more than its' live action counterpart.
