Is anyone else a brokecel who can only afford to play free games or mobile games such as roblox?

Gaming is a upper middle class hobby. If you really want to get the fullest experience out of it, you need the newest graphics card, newest motherboard, best fan, etc. All of which cost a shitload of money. Prebuilts are even more expensive with worse specs.

On top of that all decently programmed, well-made games cost $60 on average not including DLC’s. Drugs are cheaper than games. I can only afford to play mobile games despite them also being a cash dump for dopamine addicts to get overpowered quickly and shit on low spenders/F2P like me.

Coping gets hard when games also get repetitive and boring as you age. It’s not worth the time anymore

You can torrent most games but yeah if you want to play high-ultra on 1440p monitor you need lots of money.

It took me 4 months to save up for rx 6600 to play on 1080p. Now when my dad died and I have to pay the bills I won't be able to upgrade ever.

 

[HomicidalSuicidal88]

I used to be able to do that when i was younger only being able to play mobile games and kind of 360 since my mom couldn't afford expensive stuff like that she would always say no when i asked. the gaming laptop i have belongs to my step parents although they bought it for me I'm going to eventually have to switch for low quality laptop someday to play video games haven't got there yet though..

 

[Karakol96]

Free games are usually more fun anyways

 

[TheJester]

I havent played games in years. Last one was Horizon Forbidden West on PS4. Also might stay the last game ive ever played.

Games nowadays are just basically unpaid side jobs lol. Its usually just grinding dungeons or events or even watching Ads nonstop for "free" ingame currency lmao

You know what the best games were that ive ever played? It were free simplistic Browser games and Windows 2000 Games lmao.

Unfortunately most of them have gone extinct due to New Hardware being to advanced to run 16 bit games and for Flash games that are still available on like Newgrounds you need a specific Browser plugin.

The nostalgia will never come back tho. If your out of your childhood, your teens idk Gaming is just like you said for those that are rich and got too much time.

 

[LeFrenchCel]

All of my recent games are paid by my family for birthday and christmas

Last time i bought a game by myself was more than a year ago, and even this one was the first in years

 

[Nate Dogg]

I just pirate when I don't have any money

How do you pirate safety? I looked into it before and you needed a VPN and I just stopped researching there

Of all the hundreds my parents spent on games for me when I was younger throughout the years (Huge Nintendo user back in 2010), the most fun I had was with a f2p app store game that was called “vector” and another called “castle clash”.

Now that you mention it, all the free games were more fun. Quick easy dopamine hit. Especially those stick games. Most fun I had in years

Absolutely

Me too, I only got them during my birthday or Christmas (3 days apart so gifts got meshed into 1 big thing) It was a good cope while it lasted

Modern gaming is a complete joke, and the industry keeps on getting more & more cancerous each year. They simply care more about filling their pockets with more shekels & also appeasing foids, faggots, etc.

Stuff also gets more expensive progressively it seems; I remember the prices of a Series X being way higher than the One when it was released.

Like others here, most gaming stuff I get from Christmas & Birthdays, but I also have poured tons of cash i’ve earned onto bundles, DLC, etc. Even on a console, it gets pricey; I got the STALKER original trilogy for around 50$ & these are old games.

 

[KING NOTHING]

Now when my dad died

I’m sorry for your loss.

 

[KING NOTHING]

If you have any good online friends you should ask them about it. I learnt the ropes from a curry buddy on discord.
It’s much simpler than you presume.

Thanks brocel.

 

[veLZixX]

I only have a 6650xt and it's fine for 1080p, also steam sales saved me a lot of money

You don't needs a lot of money i'm buying used parts and slowly upgrading old pc it's a very cheap hobby if you know what you are doing, games can get pirated or you can buy games cheap on keyshops. Prebuilds are only for sub80iq retards or richfags

 

[PersonalityChad]

Just pirate and emulate

 

[starystulejarz]

Not a problem for people living in a first or 2nd world, only 3rd world countries such as America or Africa doesn't have fiber with no data caps

 

[starystulejarz]

and wait 10 more years for emulators to improoooove

nigga I'm literally in western europe and my max download speed on steam is 700KB/s, usually much less.
You also need to live in a large urban area where the government cares enough to install fiber.

 

[Ishless]

AAA slop costs 60 euros, weights 100 GB for each game and was made by DEI retards who scream insecurities around pretty fictional women.

Meanwhile Left 4 Dead 2 is 10 euros, doesn't try to sell me cosmetic or lootboxes, and can be customised infinitely with mods. 1 euro on a sale. Even cheaper, tf2 is the best multiplayer and you can run that on a toaster

 

[curryboy420]

My pc is like 400 pounds and I play rust which cost me 9 pounds on a Russian account I got 350 hours of fun from rust for that price

I'm starting to prove to this forum that America(Shitmerica) is a third-world country LARPing as a first world one.

 

[Exhunter45]

Just get a emulator it's a safer when pirating roms

Pay for a VPN and pirate all the media you could ever want

Linux is over hyped and sucks

in some ways yes in others no but yeah it is telling I use windows rn and it normally pisses me off though if with newer windows versions I am forced to have stuff like ai co pilot and whatever other bloatware garbo and games just have more fps on linux the biggest hurdle is the anti cheat

My favorite free game is Diablo Immortal.

It does get repetitive to grind through the levels.
But, it’s mindless and relaxing to play.
Just what I need to unwind from stress.

You can buy things in the game, but you don’t have to.
I have several very high level characters and I have never spent any money.

You don't have to anon just play mid 2000s viddya and you'll be shocked at how good they are just download roms and run them on emulators like manhunt 2 for example download psp emu and run a rom it's super easy
