The hipster subculture was from 2009-2015.
The reason you see plaid and beards and ear guages everywhere is because hipster trappings were absorbed into mass culture. The subculture is dead and those people you see are just normies wearing the new-normal fashions.

>trial and error difficulty as a design flaw from the era
It literally is a fucking design flaw? How in a love of fuck can you defend trial and error in a system that pernamently punishes you for failure (i.e. a game with limited lives or limited continues).
Sure, if that's not the case, then trial and error is acceptable, especially with short iteration times, or if it's a way to solve a puzzle you don't get as a last resort thing, but often trial and error is just padding to make game artificially longer.

Trial and error usually wasn't fun or engaging back then, and isn't fun still.

It's much more hipster to act as if every decision ever made by a dev is automatically masterful and GOAT just because game was made before 1999. Games had flaws back then! And some of them sucked! Shocking, I know.

Confirmed hipster that's into retro without even understanding it and probably 6th gen advocate. Also yes trial and error makes the game longer, that's the point.

“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own). One may be quick to coin such interests and garb as "black-rimmed glasses, flannel, and indie music," however said mainstream-avoiding "hipsters" will logically turn down abiding to such a popular consensus, voiding the interpretation null.

You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

tl;dr: if you believe hipsters exist, you are a plebeian.

I was referring to the generic LCD cabinet as an accompaniment to a random "vintage" items ensemble, which includes strangely mismatched items like a rotary phone, VHS tapes, a wooden chessboard, and a modern clock with ironically clashing fonts. There is nothing linking the components of the obviously decorative display beyond a vague sense of the things being "vintage."

Yes, Mr. Pasta, because no already accepted subculture group has ever presented itself as "nonconformist" despite actually just conforming to several of the trends set by their own group, nor has there ever been a group where all members are carbon copies of each other.

Since when are beards considered "hipster"? Shaving is more work than not shaving, so I would think that a clean shaven face would be considered more "hipster"y since its higher effort. Or maybe a well groomed or shaped beard. But then I see pics of guys with regular ass normal beards and they are "hipster"? Maybe it's because I'm from the country but everyone has a beard like that, and none of them are really what I'd call a hipster.

Neither of those are the case anymore, this was hip in like the mid to late 2000's, its like 8 years out of date at this point.

Today look for slim fits instead of skinny jeans, more clean lines, softer colors, and more subtle patterns in business casual wear, although streetwear and casualwear can be more garish.

Expect appreciation of niche and high-end products, subcultures, experiences. While this can manifest in the form of elitist attitudes surrounding food for example

(local coffee places and french presses, cold and nitro brews for coffee. Starbucks is mainstream and generally considered poor quality. Even IPA's are on their way out due to oversaturation)

You could even consider this board's obsession with period authenticity and CRTs fairly hip in and of itself.

This exactly.

It's just DQ, but an extremely simplified version, along with a bunch of tedious, quirky shit thrown in with it. It has a whole bunch of terrible mechanics (extremely limited inventory space, having pictures taken every two seconds, PP-stealing, obnoxious status ailments, rolling HP values, having your dad ring you up continuously, areas where you're forced to take damage, silly teleports, 1/128 chance items, having to withdraw cash from an ATM, enemies which are guaranteed to deal damage upon death) which make it "quirky";, stylised but in actuality extremely impractical. It's no surprise why hipsters love it so much.

It's charming as a game, sure, but that's all it has going for it. On a fundamental level it's actually pretty awful, but the shallowness is why so many hipsters like it; they're very shallow people.

Guilty as charged. Some games just haven't stood the test of time, IMO. Most of the time this is due to things like awkward control schemes or unforgiving "arcadey" mechanics.

>he uses le sonic was never good meme and hates sega
I actually rather enjoy the Genesis, and while the older Sonic games aren't quite my thing, SEGA had a good formula figured out that other developers couldn't quite match. If my reflexes weren't so shit I'd probably quite enjoy Sonic 2.

One of the most creative rail shooters, really solid game although admittedly short and very easy (although playing it without guides can give it some challenge when it comes to secrets).
Played this one a lot with my female cousin, we even challenged each other to surpass hi-scores. I think it was one of the few games where we gave a fuck about scores. The scoring system in this game is pretty nice.

I think the "hipster" thing is overused and progressively losing meaning, but I've met a good amount of people who fit the "hipster gamer" stereotype. Mostly I think the type is attracted to two main things: "obscure" games and "quirky" games.

"Obscure" games are relative to other games, the hipster type usually doesn't give a shit about games that are "actually" obscure. Take a popular series/company and the hipster type will usually praise the black sheep (Majora's Mask is a classic example) and be unusually uninterested in the most popular games. This makes them seem "different" but also pass off as knowledgeable.

"Quirky" games are pretty self-explanatory. Earthbound is the embodiment of this fetish, but I'd include nearly any "strange" Japanese game (Katamari, Parodius, LSD Dream Emulator, etc.). Besides the obvious ironic and "weird" aspect, there's also the "deeper" idea that the very idea of video games are weird and shouldn't be taken too serious.

I don't really see anything wrong with liking or agreeing with any of that. But it does bug me when I meet someone who namedrops those kinds of games but doesn't really know or give a shit about anything else. I'm probably just the ultimate hipster.

Trust me, you do. I mean, don't even get angry or upset or anything, your taste is just not good, let alone special. Just deal with it.

>I'd rather play Umihara Kawase than Mother Memer.

Well, how to say this...
You're not really giving me any real information here. All you're saying is that you prefer to play a certain type of game over another type of game. You don't even know about genres, are you really this uneducated? Jeez.
Also, get real, you wouldn't know about Umi if it wasn't for the internet.

It's okay though, it doesn't mean you have to stop playing games or anything, but be aware, you haven't fomed a good taste over the years, and it might be too late now.

How is it hipster? It was on every Famiclone multicart back in the late 80s/early 90s.
There is nothing more popular than famiclones and multicarts, unless you're from USA maybe.

I debated including that title for that reason but it does illustrate something about hipsters that doesn't seem to be readily understood.

Most hipsters that I have known don't search out obscure media because of obscurity alone, they search it out because they've exhausted, or are bored with, much of the mainstream content within which whatever medium that their interests lie.

I believe that at the beginnings of these types of searches there usually can be a type of snobbery, or elitism, that associates itself with this narrowing of interest. However, a net positive of this sifting and sorting is that a refinement of appreciation of the given medium as a whole occurs.

What I see inevitably happen with the most die hard hipsters is that they end up coming out the other side again; they come to view everything in the medium as a flat landscape and are able to appreciate both the popular and the obscure with fresh eyes, while simultaneously being able to eschew those labels.

At this final point in the evolution of the true hipster all is one and any specific artifact of a medium may be appreciated based solely on the participants internal framework and not on any given externalities put forth by society or the culture at large. All artifacts are able to be examined in a vacuum, as it were, popular or not.

This doesn't seem like a hipster thing, seems like they finally grow up and are able to appreciate things for what they are instead of caring about elite status, obscurity, what other people might think of them, etc etc.

Battle City is a damn fun video game, simple but it was one of the first games with custom maps and it had multiplayer, it's one of the most classic games on famiclones.

I suppose it's a context thing then with Battle City. Most North American gamers never encountered Battle City. I played it for the first time on a multi cart I bought when I was young but it was never released in the states.

If you walked into a midwestern coffee shop and saw some bearded dudes playing MahJohng and you were a white midwesterner you'd probably think "hipsters" but if you were from China you'd probably barely register it, unless you wanted in on the game of course.

what are you even talking about anymore, craft beer?

other guys going all "i believe hipsters do this and that" wtfff dude it's literally not a thing, there aren't people who go "i'm a hipster" whoever says they're a hipster is either trolling or an idiot poser desperate for attention

it's like you don't need a degree to get it guys, what's always been cool, since forever? Acting like you don't care. Fake it till you make it. That's it! There's always going to be new ways to "not care" there's no mystery in anything

like, say, you don't care about mainstream games so you like EARTHBOUND but then you don't care about americanizations so you like MOTHER 3 or whatever but THEN you realize you actually might be caring too much about how authentic your taste is and revert to liking mainstream games! AND SO IS THE CIRCLE OF LIFE

I mostly consider hipsters to be posers and I don't think posers regard themselves as such. They think they're cool by doing what they do. And it is mostly just to be different and feel special by going against what is considered mainstream.
What really makes hipsters what they are though is the urge to flaunt their choices and behavior to give themselves an aura of superiority. That's the real problem.

It does seem like many here see hipsters as the boogeyman, though. Which is weird because I don't even think hipsters and nerds even share the same "habitat".
