>because my playmates lack dedication in life

Maybe they're dedicating their lives to something other than playing games? Games are great for entertainment, but they're not something most people want to focus serious time on. Especially as we get older and have other interests and responsibilities.

>>3154186
that's why I posted on a gaming specialized board to eventually get to know your experiences with that case.

Instead of going to the bar with the other dudes or spending money on some show somewhere I much prefer hanging out at my place and having many people there every evening after work. That's more what I mean.

>friends playing games alone at home after work
>why not come over and play alone here

>always talking about coop games, always talking about game xy
>actually playing coop games or game xy they chicken out

thanks for the response

Ohh no I hear you. I was referring more to the first part of your post than the second. When I get together with my friends we usually game as well, but the reality of life, jobs, schedules (kids in some cases) means we don't have either as much time to get together or to play in general.

Less time to practice means less gitting gud in the end. We've been playing the same game of Civ 5 for over a year and I'm terrible because I haven't played any since 2 and wasn't deep into it then. It's still fun though.

I play some stuff with my wife as well, but she mostly likes different kinds of games. That's just life though, the days of gaming all day when I was off work or every night are long gone. And they were good but I don't necessarily miss them or want that still.

>>3154152
Don't you have a job? Maybe there's some actually life relevant challenge you could be practicing instead of children's games.

>>3154152
>4chan user calling anyone else maggot
I miss the days when people here were a bit more self aware.

And you know, maybe people have lives and other hobbies outside of playing videogames.

Besides, not all people want to dedicate such vast amount of time into passive hobbies such as playing videogames, might as well complain about people not having enough "stamina" or patience to watch chinese cartoons all day.

If you can't understand that and expect people to have your habits, well, you might want to get out of your living room, people have families, friends and other interests, and much to your suprise, even people who really like videogames might have hobbies or interests they prioritize over sitting on a couch and playing for hours, like, actually learning shit for the sake of it instead of boasting on an anonymous imageboard about their mad vidya skillz.

>>3154152
I feel you, OP. Your feel is a feel I feel deeply.

I have to use only fractions of my true power while playing my girlfriend so she'll stay interested. Un-restrained I'll completely suppress her - rendering the game un-fun (for her)

Her son does just fine against me, tho. He's a champ. Im so proud of him.

>>3154394
he's gunna steamroll you someday. your reactions will fade and his skills will sharpen. Enjoy it while you can old timer.

my retron is really good at platformers and the like but any fighting games etc I have to really hold back as she button mashes. undertale has gotten her into shmup games now so that's cool. still pretty bad at them.

for all the hate, genocide run bossfights are tough, still haven't beat the final

>>3154321
Can't really add anything to that. You made the point. imho I still want that and as long as I have friends who make it all worth while I want to keep that forever. It's more important to regularly be there and come together than to do it really long. The steady repetition would do to get better I think.

>>3154328
I am a teacher.

>>3154383
I understand your thinking but not why you posted it.

>>3154394
Yesssss! desu I hope to be able to make my niece have fun playing with me someday. :-)

>>3154152
There are good challenges when playing online, but to really benefit from them you need to find someone that has more than a gnat's attention.

>How do you guys handle when you don't find someone who wants to play your game with you for not just one tryout round?

I fucking cry and play solo. Or look for groups on the web that still play.

>autistic enough to dedicate stupid amounts of effort to trivial things, making me a perfect candidate for being amazing at vidya.
>born with ADHD, can't maintain focus on a game long enough.

>>3154709
Do you do drugs?

>>3154508
>having fun
>playing hard games
Choose one and only one.

>>3154709
ADHD is a fake disorder.

>>3156174
What med school did you go to for that claim? Are you peer reviewed? Do you have any papers on this? I would like to know.


Anyway OP, I recommend making some buddies online and playing some dumb games or fun games while talking on skype/hangouts/whatever kids use nowadays. It's not the same but it's a blast if you know some funny people.

>>3154152
>i'm sooo hard core
>plays all that casual shit
top kek kid

>>3154508
>I am a teacher.
then go find the most difficult problem

>>3154152
nobody cares about much better at video games you are than other people, go get laid

>her son
nice meme

>>3154709
>can't maintain focus on a game long enough

That means the game you are playing isn't fun, Anon.

>>3156531

Yes as it turns out adults often have children.

You'll figure it out when your balls drop.

>>3156684
Liberal women 'experiment' carelessly out of wedlock and gain fuck trophies. C.uc.k males settle for these leftover women, accepting the burden of another man's offspring as the price of a piece of ass.

Meanwhile conservative couples don't behave like beasts and make informed responsible decisions when dating and entering into relationships. Afterward they create families.

Maybe your house smells bad.
While you want to play games with people, you also bhave to be a host. Are you a good hiat anon? Provide drinks and snacks.

Maybe people just dont like you and don't want to apend time with you.

>>3156720
Cool /pol/ shitpost virgin bro
Not the guy your replying to either. Just a 46 year old white male conservative telling you you're a fool. No one said she girl 'experiment' carelessly. Maybe your projecting my born-again son? Either way, accepting the burden of another man's offspring is an long honored tradition. People fight to adopt children.
Take your C.uc.k shit back to /v/. Even the most underage overpaying emulating CRT-hating poster has more to contribute than you.

>>3158464
>Either way, accepting the burden of another man's offspring is an long honored tradition.
Ehhh surely paying 21 years of child support to someone else's kid is a great honor.

>>3158464
His point is realistic and factual.

You're too old to see this shit. I'm 32 and only see it in the distance. Women are a fucking wreck now. They won't settle down and commit until they have one guys baby, and can't hold onto him or any other high status guy. Then they settle for some cuck virgin that is so desperate to get some tail that he'll pay for it. Then she'll get too full of herself and cheat on him in a couple more years. He can continue being a super-cuck or get out and she'll take half of his money for the rest of his life in the courts.

Marrying a single mother has a success rate of like 0% over 5 years.
You can't parent her kid.
You can't get her respect.
You can't have your own kid without him/her being fucked up too
You can't afford anything because all your money is going to support not your kid.

The whole 'my son' is exactly that meme. the first poster of that laid it in there slick.

Anon tried to explain it, and anon (you) tried to can't accept the truth, and think your white knighting is earning you pussy-points with anyone on an anonymous image board.

>>3156720
polcucks are this delusional

>>3158464
>>3158553

>offended by demographic getting called c ucks.
>"n-no, you are cuck"

hahahaha that projecting

>>3158552
The world is completely fucking. All men now seem to think women are gold digging whores out to trap men into paying their way through life. And women all seem to think men are all asshole rapists who only care about fucking as many people as they can.

Both sides are so full of themselves all they seem to do is fight at this point. I am so glad I don't have to deal with the dating scene these days. Male/female relations with the 20 and 30 year olds these days is a complete clusterfuck.

>>3158475
>Ehhh surely paying 21 years of child support to someone else's kid is a great honor.

That would be a strange honor indeed, seeing as it stops at 18.

>>3159543
not if they become students

>>3159814
The reality is, if you're the type of person who signs on to co-parent someone else's child then you should be expected to know what you're getting into. That's the deal. It's super easy not to marry people.

The reality is if you're a straight white male, whores and gay liberals are out to get your blood.

>>3159856
I'm straight and white, my best friend is gay and two of my wife's very close friends are gay. They're just normal people. I feel bad for how much anger you have.

>>3159894
There's no beta uprising cuckboi, in the future only gay white males, whores and their chad black boyfriends will be allowed to exist. Beta heterosexual males will be prohibited by government law.

>>3159907
You got a license for those buzzwords, pal?

>>3159913
Don't worry though you can always become a tranny. I heard they are in vogue.

>>3159843
>Super easy to not marry people
Uh, no, it's not. It's super easy to fall into a civil union you weren't even thinking about because you're like 'hurr, I never had a marraige ceremony so I don't need to worry about her taking my money' and then she takes all your money.

>>3159437
man, polcucks have really ramped up their insecurities as of late
