People think playing video games CAUSES you to become some low SMV loser, but the reality is that video game playing comes way after the fact. Sure there are a handful of normies whose life went to shit because they became addicted to video games, but that is not the norm, the norm for men in their 20s/30s playing video games is just because that's all they can do, with low SMV you can't do shit in life, unless you want to do shit in life alone all the time, but you as a low SMV male will not be going on world-adventures with a lover, the point of having some awesome-exciting lifestyle is that you have people to do it with, and generally that means having a lover you do it with, ie: something low SMV men just can't get.


Sure as a kid I liked video games, playing NES, SNES, N64 and some old computer games in the 90s like Age of Empires, but when I became a teenager I lost interest in the games and really wanted to start getting laid and my focus switched to females, but I found it impossible to actually have any success with females, I found that I was invisible to them, while I would see them fawn over other guys, and I'd just be ignored, not even the fattest and ugliest females wanted anything to do with me, if anything the Stacey's and Beckies treated me better than the really fat and ugly females, so it's not like I had some kind of super high standard, I just kept wondering what the fuck type of female I could actually get, and I came to the realization that it was no type of female, not even the lowest status female, let a lone a average females. (Speaking of that, where the hell do these incel-hating morons on reddit get the idea that incels are just guys with super high standards, fucking idiots)


So what did I do? what else could I do? I just retreated into video games. Now call it projecting, but I feel like a lot of guys had the same experience as me, some of these guys experience the same thing I did from 13-14 until 21-25, but then they get lucky and late-bloom, but there are guys like me that don't experience a late-bloom phase in the early 20s, and we remain invisible to females for all of our 20s, and then we reach our 30s as hand-holdless, hugless, kissless, virgins, and even though we decide to quit video games during our 20s for the self-improvement meme, there's only so much you can improve from an extremely low point, so the self-improvement doesn't make any difference in the end to your ability to attract a female, so in the end you again fall back into playing video games as a 30+ year old, because it's the only thing you can return to and cope with, you're still locked out of the whole relationship/sex life experience, and as every year goes by after age 30 the chance of that changing is next to 0.

Females shouldn't be allowed to choose mates, only males should be allowed. Then we wouldn't have these kinds of problems.
 
This will be me in my 20s :feelsrope:
 
Chad plays video games and has sex too. Look at a lot of the popular twitch streamers, they are good looking and good at games. All I do is play video games and work, and I’m shit at video games.
 
playing vidya in general is an act of coping. you're basically saying that pretending that you're someone else in some virtual shitthole populated with people who don't exist and valuables that have no value is preferable to the reality that you're currently living in, you've given up on actually gaining power in the real world because you know its too hard and unattainable.

There is not a single "Chad" streamer, they're ALL beta-bux. They're beta-bux because literally all of the females that surround themselves with male streamers are all LITERALLY cam-girls or BORDERLINE soft-core porn "personalities" who just leech off the male streamer audience/influence.

I know a guy in his mid 30s who has a very high salary from a high position at a bank, and he plays video games 7 days a week, every afternoon/night after work, and all day on the weekends. Education/Career/Financial success hasn't been good enough for him to obtain a female and has left him playing video games everyday, when he should be having a super-exciting intimate sex life with a lover. His educational, career and financial success means absolutely nothing in our times, such is the life for a short unattractive man in 2019.

Pretty much yeah.

Short of extreme cosmetic surgery, which has costs and risks associated with it that rise with how extreme it gets, you can go up one PSL point, maybe two if you really let yourself go before deciding to max out your looks. I personally started at a 2/10 and have peaked at around 3.5/10. It was brutal and had no real reward because it was simply not enough.

That's my experience summed up perfectly.

I used to rue the days spent back in 2006 on the computer, designing levels for Half-Life 2. But in reality, I probably had no other choice.

I, too, wanted to get laid and have a normal life. A part time job as well, when I was 16-20.

For years in my late teens and early 20s, I craved that sweet young flesh of the foid. The soft tissue of the breast, the smooth skin. I knew I was missing out at the time, but there was nothing I could do about it.

We all started out wanting to be normies but we were not able to.

Now I am 30 I know there is no going back for me.

My life is destined to be one big NEET coping evercise until the end:feelsrope:

Man, if I had a job in my early 20s I would have probably got a nose job and carried on as normal. My whole existence would have been different.

pewdiepie? hes at least a chadlite
 
Disclaimer: I am not claiming 100% of people who play video games only do it because they're low status men, but I am saying at least 99% are.

There's a reason video games have a stigma, because it's generally associated with a being a fucking loser, and being a fucking loser is in general associated with having low SMV, so it's all connected, boyo's.
 
Video games are definitely a cope, but there's scientific evidence that men in general are more interested in video games than women regardless. Also there are plenty of Chads who play video games in their 20's, they just play the normie sports games or Call of Duty.
 
Truth, the only ones who still play vidya after 25 are incels and soys(incels), no one would play vidya at that age if he wasnt a complete failure
 
I agree that video games have a stigma because the majority of them are incel coping mechanisms. Most games that get produced and played aren't the super popular normie games that you can find on the front page of Twitch.

Most normies have never even heard of shit like EU4 or the majority of games other incels I know play.

I agree but what man has any SMV after 30? At that age most are balding and are total trash to women.
 
I would not be playing video games if I had a social life. When I am in my bedroom all day what else can I do?
 
Well, duh? Not too many people can get a life good enough where you don't need to escape with entertainment. I'm also introverted as fuck and i hate loud places with many people. Most people aren't interesting to me either so a good game is on another level of entertainment rather than listening to some chode blabblering about his dumb life.
 
I have high standards on top of being undesirable to ugly roasties 1/10s, even. Yikes, huh?
 
There is truth to that.

But there's some guys who smoke weed and play xbox all day who get girlfriends who work.

Source: Me, overhearing women bitching about these things. They also clean the house for their boyfriend, who still lives with his mom.

Looks determine everything.
 
No my friend's father and uncle and other guys I know are married but play video games

redpill fags cope thinking they have higher SMV at 40 (through resources) than some college chad
 
Coincidentally, yesterday I went to a video-game store. I was looking at games and two foids came up besides me and started talking about certain games they like. Seriously pissed me off ....so I just left.

Cliffs: Why do foids have to ruin everything?

alright chad
 
rope is the only non-cope

lets all suicide
 
your exactly right, if u had access to prime pussy why would u game
 
blah blah blah everything is cope if you're low in SMV blah blah blah
 
blah blah blah everything is cope if you're low in SMV blah blah blah
truth. This type of the thread is spammed slot. Basically anything a subhuman does is cope.
 
I'm mixed on this. I've met a good amount of dudes a bit older than me who are sexually successful and play video games.

Also, when I played CS: Source in 2013, I met a lot of dudes from their 30s to their 50s with a wife and kid(s). I would hear them in the background too, sometimes.
 
I guess then chads, chadlites, high tier normies and foids who play videogames must have as low SMV as me since OP is coping hard.
blah blah blah everything is cope if you're low in SMV blah blah blah
20x higher iq post than OP
 
Video games grew very popular in the last decade or so. Nowadays, it's socially acceptable for Chads and normalfags to entertain themselves with video games, provided they only play the newest, most popular mainstream titles (sports games, racing games, party games, shooters and action RPGs). Especially, sports games thrive on normalfags. Video games hit the mainstream and they are here to stay.
 
Depends on what you are playing. COD, Mortal Kombat, NBA 2K, Madden, FIFA are good with most normies. Anything else and they'd probably think you are a manchild.

Gaming itself though has become more of a subculture onto itself, than ever recently. You can make it by with just a social circle of gamers provided you're insanely good at them. Just look at that furfag SonicFox or Ninja.
 
It's good for rotting but I've been watching movies and tv instead of gaming
 
i recently watched tons of parkour vids , could be a hella good cope tbh
 
Vidya has become mainstream in the past 12 years.

Back when I was a youngcel, vidya was just becoming mainstream.

Even when I was at college (on a computer course, no less) there was talk of Gears of War amount the other students when it first came out.

In the 12 years since then, vidya is seen as completely normal and mainstream.

In some ways, it sorta makes me angry.

Especially those who think they know vidya because they played some sports game on a CONSOLE.

When any true gamer plays on PC. And plays RTS games and obscure indie titles as well as the obligatory FPS game.

And has at least dabbled in level design.
 
Can confirm. I liked playing games as a kid, but grew out of them as a teen. But since I had no success with women and a limited social life I kept playing them for lack of options even when I did not like them. During my teens and twenties my life was work, study and games. These days I have moved on to other copes, mostly reading and studying.
Also when I was in highschool only the nerds played videogames, these days I hear my female collegues talking about games.
 
Vidya is a cope, but it's the ultimate cope. :yes:
 
Chad plays video games and has sex too. Look at a lot of the popular twitch streamers, they are good looking and good at games. All I do is play video games and work, and I’m shit at video games.
This
 
Try new Vidya, new genres, maybe vr.

Ultimate redpill delusion and its 100% why I cant take anything redpillers say seriously

Just because normalfags and Chads play video games doesn't at all change the fact that video games are used by millions upon millions of low/zero SMV fucking loser males as a cope for not being able to have a thriving social/sex life.

If you can't see this, you have some kind of emotional connection to video games as being part of your identity, and you're coping hard by say "b-but Chad plays games now so its not a low smv thing bro"
