Zephyr_Nova Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 We're still on about porridge in here? Ahahahaha. My observation was noticing Joyrex started a thread for the Dunning-Kruger effect, then popping in here to see the first post at the top of the page mentioned the Dunning-Kruger effect. If the Dunning-Kruger effect were that thing where you have a stoner moment and go "whoa" that observation would have had that effect on me.

cichlisuite Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 pop music is too overt and banal. even if it's good initially, not only it gets 'old' quick, but I feel shame later. something like a post-wank shame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr_Nova Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 My only gripe is the loss of My Content. Instead of having all threads I participate in on one screen I have to visit each forum individually to see if there are any new replies. But the little red notification that appears every time I'm quoted provides a small burst of dopamine that was absent before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambermonk Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 (edited) 2019 is transpiring to be the year my passion for gaming might be dwindling. Today is the first time my PC did not meet the minimum requirements for a new release. And the AAA sector of the industry is showing signs of disarray and potential collapse, especially with big names like EA, Activision, Blizzard, Epic, Bethesda, etc. Also, the lot of the gamer community are self-entitled assholes, not to mention tend to affiliate with the alt-right. There's probably a psychological parallel between game addiction and drug addiction. Regardless, for me it feels like it's fading. That's not to say I'm just gonna suddenly decide to quit games forever out of the blue one day. But at the same time I just can't play a game for more than 2 hours in a day anymore. As opposed to late 2008 thru 2011 when open-world games were really taking off - I'd be up playing them for several hours straight until like 3 AM on some days.

I lost tons of interest in games 3 or 4 years back when starting uni. They just weren't fun anymore. I don't think it was because of starting uni, but I finally got rbored of AAA mechanics. Take Bethesda for instance. imho their best game was morrowind, with lots of experimental things that were fun that you'd never see in their games today. It's like they have it all down to a science and only indie games innovate. Since Oblivion I've kept getting excited for new elder scrolls stuff but I have no expectations anymore. It's a shame really. As far as the crash I've been hearing that for years. If it does happen it'll be because of how watered down AAA games are now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brisbot Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) I didn't play any video game during 90% of my time in uni, but now i'm enjoying them again, It feels really weird to go years without playing one. The first game I played when I started again was Deus Ex 1. I had never played it before, and the gameplay still holds up. After beating it I wanted to play older games since I didn't realize on how much I missed out.

Which kinda seem like the same option. Or did you play it recently? Quote Edited May 20, 2019 by Brisbot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
