Why people grow out hobbies like games, anime, metal, etc after a certain age? Anonymous 5408[Reply]

Silly question out of curiosity, and no, I don't care about what others think neither I intend to stop liking what I like just because society thinks I should.

I was just wondering a few days ago. I'm 29 years old, older than most miners I believe and I still like the very same things I used to when I was a teen. None of my highschool friends, who liked the very same things as me, like it anymore. I don't think it has anything to do with time as I probably work harder than most of them and hang out just as much (even though that's not that much when compared to the average person). Also now they're into other media (mostly western Netflix TV shows) that require lots of time too.

So, I was just wondering. Are anime, games, metal and things like this actually made for kids? Why do people stop liking them after/during college. About metal I can understand, most of your angst is gone, but the others still might be fun. Do you think it might have something to do with how society sees people with the so called "manchild" hobbies?

I have experienced the opposite lol. My music taste has "matured" a bit but for everything else, it's gone the other way.
I watch cartoons and play nintendo stuff a lot now. When I was addicted to Valve and FromSoft games as a teenager.
Television and movies geared toward even younger adults are just so horrible now. The ideologies have no subtlety and the things they have to say are so lame and immature now. There's no more realism. Every show with a male protag is just either "literally me" or sigma grind bullshit.
I finished BCS and found it to be even more of a chore than Breaking Bad. And fantasy is all just GoT now. Soulless moid slop. And videogames are going down a different path of mostly being passionless digital casinos with occasional pvp.
It's a grim time to be into media. What little content is still being made with passion seems to mostly be for kids now.

I was just in an 8 months phase of being obsessed with movies. I had a nagging feeling about how I needed to experience certain classics, genres, directors, movements etc before I died. Now I've seen so many movies I'm finding a lot of them repetitive and just blending in together. I still have a watchlist but if I die before seeing those movies I won't have a feeling of regret. I think it's the same with people who were interested in anime or games as a kid, it just became too repetitive.

Anonymous 35202

Because I started finding new games/anime don't click with me anymore, and there's only a limited amount of old shit to go around, it doesn't mean I hate anime/games anymore, it's just that I don't click with what anime/games are now, so I'm not longer an "anime fan".

Anonymous 35215

I think it's related to how you got into the interest in the first place. Everything that I discovered on my own/was gifted without expectation or judgment I've maintained well into adulthood, while all the things that I developed an interest for in order to socialize or fit in have long fallen off. It's very depressing to realize that most people have basically no hobbies though, don't end up like that.

Anonymous 35228

it sounds strange but i think this can be a positive development in a person. as i've gotten older i've stopped spending as much time playing video games/watching anime because i've been investing it into making my own projects instead. if you are attracted to anime shit because you care a lot about the art, stories, characters, etc, you might later realize it's more fulfilling to create your own cringe isekai yaoi world and emo sparkledog ocs.

i recently started using tumblr and was too young during it's heyday so i never really got to experience that. it has a lot of good art posting and fashion posting so i curated my algorithm to show that only. i don't follow any blogs or people so it's kinda boring and slow but it's chill i guess

Don’t jump me but I absolutely love Ethel Cains music. I know he’s a troon but his music is just so good. His songs have joined my comfort playlist along with mitski and lana del ray. My favourite songs have to be A House in Nebraska and White Light.

youtubers I can mimic to appear like a normal person Anonymous 34948[Reply]

trying to pass as normie and functional as possible. I used to watch kathleen lights, jenn im, and some other beauty/fashion vloggers to absorb the personalities. It worked and I was able to get friends and lots of tips while serving because I nailed the “bubbly girly” vibe down. I’m now looking for youtubers who have their shit together & behave calm and positive.

Anonymous 35192

Not a youtuber but you can find mst3k episodes on youtube and I imitated them to try and be more "humorous" to normies and I think it might have actually worked. British panel shows like QI or taskmaster also work well for this because the jokes that they tell have to be very pc, but they're actually a little funny.

I dropped that game long ago so I haven't been following on the updates. They dropped a new boy? How was silverhead cutie's route?
Anyway, are you a phonefag only? Idk about these except for 2 games including LaD.
I haven't played otome for so long as well but I remember how much I enjoyed anniversary no kuni no alice. Not for the writing (Which wasn't the best) but for silliness and the heroine not being a pain in the ass. The only serious and mature otome I played was hakuouki.

FF7-Original-Yuffi…

Popular characters that you hate Anonymous 26855[Reply]

We already have a "hated" characters that you love thread so I thought why not do the opposite?

Anyway, mine is Yuffie from FF7.
She used to be mainly hated but now she seems mainly loved so I think she counts.
I will never forgive her for stealing my materia and her design is lame too. She's just annoying for no good reason, but annoying characters seem to get a pass if they're a "cute" girl. You can make a character energetic without being annoying. If Wutai was completely run down and shabby maybe I'd have some sympathy but not only does it look completely fine, it's quite pretty and in way better condition than Sector 7 was. Actually it seems better than where I live irl lol. She adds nothing to the story or cast and is actively mean to Barret too.
Tifa is by far my favorite in the OG and Aerith is by far my favorite in the Remake, she barely felt like a character in the OG. But yeah, Yuffie sucks and her fans go rabid if you dare dislike her cuz she's so quirky teehee
Only talking about OG Yuffie I haven't played her Remake DLC

If you already dislike her in the game, the anime will definitely not make you like her any more. She’s even more one-dimensional there, just showing up to fall over, be lewd and exist as one-dimensional fanservice with nothing else to her character. Personally, I felt really bad for her and thought she deserved better but I can also see why some people don’t like her.

A Danganronpa character who is popular in the fandom who I personally can’t stand would be Genocide Jack. I just never found her funny, just very annoying.

In her defense, the dude is tall and not a disgusting scrote. Plus, he can actually make stuff unlike most romcom leads who are little more than wet blankets at best and creeps at worst

This bitch.
I just hate her for already absolutely hating people like her. It's insane how well-written this character is.

I got the theory that the creator of this game joined some Discord server full of girls just insufferable and problematic as Ame to gain enough reference material to work on his character, she's way too real.


If you see her and thinks that she's "literally" you, get some help, please.

>I hear the Despair kids show up
sure, in a 3 seconds, static cameo in Despair arc. That's it.

except for Monaca in Future arc but based on your pic i guess you don't give a shit about her. understandable. Komaru and Touko show up too

Despair Arc is utter, lazy, retconny garbage
Future Arc is average at best and kind of bullshit, but some of its characters were beloved by fans. I'd say not worth it overall.

Favorite characters:
Sakura Ogami (best girl)
Fat Byakuya (regular Byakuya can go kick rocks)
Gundham Tanaka (spergy larper AND animal lover I’m sold)
Korekiyo Shinguji (ignoring the whole sister thing, he fine as hell)

Favorite atmosphere: THH
Favorite setting: SDR2
Favorite cast: V3

The animes are unwatchable for me. Especially the Despair Arc… lazy writing, and all the characters become flat caricatures of themselves, the horniness was too much.

It's a great game. It isn't misogynistic the way GTA is (having said that, I've never actually played GTA, I'm just assuming it is based on the content I've seen of GTA from playthrough or video clips). You can play it for the story, you can meander around and complete the challenges, you can treat it as a collect a thon, you can go down all the side quests, it's a game that you can play in many different ways and the graphics are amazing. There is no prostitution that the player can engage in. I recommend playing RDR 1 first even though RDR 2 is a prequel because the story of RDR 1 enhances the content within RDR 2.

I didn't like Sadie Adler's character, but many do. Her character doesn't really go through a transformation or arc and it's boring to me. I feel like it's obvious she's written by a male writer who is intending to be progressive. I appreciate the sentiment, but hur dur traumatized woman becomes psycho and full of rage with no other defining characteristics is a very male coded trope to me. It would be more interesting if her issues with rage were addressed or if she changed from being that way. There's a whole genre of movies made by men which are about female characters who are raped and then become killers and it came off that way to me. Sadie is so violent she isn't reliable and I wish that were touched on for realism.

My favorite female characters were Mrs. Grimshaw, Abigail, and Bonnie McFarland. All of the female characters are relatively well rounded considering they're minor characters. I truly believe Rockstar is trying to appeal to more players by not making RDR as sexist and I believe it worked.

Anonymous 35150

>>35105
Your point on Sadie is very valid. Not saying women can't be violent, but sperging out in a bloody path of revenge is something much likelier to occur to a random moid
