If the game gets too hard and i'm not having fun, i just swap to easy mode and have fun again!

microplastics

implying

Physically weaker

Period cramps every month

Just have stuff leak from your vagina, ruining your pants

Menopause

Could get raped at any moment

Pants have no pockets

Less pay

Have to buy a bra for your tits

If you are ugly you are fucked

Have to actually put effort into your appearance, husband won't try

Even with your own job you have to do all the housework

Have to force a baby out of your vagina and only you can raise the children even if you have a second job

Husband could easily get away with abusing the shit out of you

Considered ugly if you have any amount of body hair on you, guys don't even have to shave their face.

What part of this is "easy mode" exactly? Sounds like even more of a nightmare honestly.

kill self

reload last save before fucking up

You're not a faggot, you're a person with spirit. Faggots are those who do not feel like you.

Just say you're a pedoph- I mean, male feminist, and save us all the time reading that.

If you cheat yourself you're still winning against yourself so you end up neutral.

You cheated not only the game, but yourself.
You didn't grow.
You didn't improve.
You took a shortcut and gained nothing.
You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained.
It's sad you don't know the difference.

Not playing on Hard mode

Shameful. Easy modes are made for women, children, and game journalists. Normal mode is made for teenage boys.

wtf i love microplastics now

can't even handle normal difficulty

At this point, you might as well save yourself the time and energy and just not play in the first place

I just don't play games if I get filtered by the "intended" or "default" difficulty. Although I usually try to go for one above, like the hard difficulty. Not expert, I only do that for games I really like and want to get better at.

I was pure shit at vidya until my mid 20s. I was even playing Persona 3/4 on easy mode like a bitch but now I complain hard is too easy

how does being at the same job 40 hours a week for 10 years make you stupider? 30 isnt even old

Do you work?

there's nothing more pointless than playing an easy video game.

there is, playing a video game at all.

Easy mode is for kids

become girl

All of these "I can't play hard games anymore, I'm too old" faggots never cared about games to begin with. These people just play games to past the time.

Finish 45 hour work week

Finally got the kids to bed

Exhausted but haven't gotten to play vidya all week

Countdown clock to sleep collapse 1 hour and 15 minutes

When your life is like this, you'll understand why people don't want to waste their time getting stuck on segments

I wish I'd spent my prime years playing games on hard mode instead of easy

chose to be a single game girl

none of that matters

Easy mode

hard mode is always lazy game design from bad devs, they just engage bullet sponge mode and double the damage received.
they test the game on "normal" mode and just put in "hard mode" for the autists who think its a challenge when its just a last minute addition.

For me it's mixed. When I was younger I had less games, less responsibilities, and less experience so at a base I'd be far worse than I am now at video games, but eventually I could brute force my way into being better since I'd have months where focusing one game was my primary form of entertainment. I still think if adult me and child/teen me were pitted against each other, even if younger me were to gain a lead through sheer determination my better problem solving and experience would cause me to rebound much quicker.

Also correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Horizon one of those Ubisoft open world games where you need to grind to hit level thresholds to actually kill certain bosses? OP guy could just fuck off for a bit instead of slamming his face into the wall until deciding to make the wall softer.

/thread

can choose to sleep with shitty men who won't care about me

can choose whether I want to work or have someone support me

if ugly, can use a virtual model to stream/play games with, while men send me money for no reason

not forced to have children while men get drafted to go die for my freedom

can kill my unborn child if I want to

Such a hard life.

boomer bait thread

full of AGP niggers dreaming about a world where they were born as women

you are going to reincarnate as a woman in india

Horizon

I think I see the problem. You're playing a shitty game.

troon

Less pay

That's a lie and illegal. You can sue if that's happening.

So no one notices he's playing a shitty Sony "game"?

Ackshually it's true because men get higher paying jobs than women

You will forget about it in due time. I have beaten many games on le hard mode thinking I would feel shame from playing on normal yet years after the fact I don't really feel pride about those playthroughs.

lowering the difficulty

I just hire another man to come over and beat it on the hardest mode for me

Vs

loneliness

extreme competition for work

extreme competition for relationships

extreme competition for material

financial status directly relates to chances of success in these competitions

pressure

immense pressure

no safety or security unless you create it

others will constantly try to take what you create no matter how small it is

can get robbed/attacked at any moment

you are never provided empathy

you will be the first one blamed

responsibility is expected

honesty is expected

diligence is expected

you will have to know instinctually when to feign any of these 3 things

schools are against you

courts are against you

laws are against you

lower life expectancy

higher costs in insurance

Id rather be a man because I always play on the hardest difficulty.

Don't be fat

Automatically have a bunch of men orbite around you

Pick the wealthiest one

Live comfortably for the rest of your life

It is literally that easy.

In this case, I'd make multiple attempts at the boss, then go to sleep. Then next time when I play the game I beat the boss easily thanks to subconscious figuring out a strategy against it during sleep.

Normal/hard depending on the game is always more enjoyable even if you can only play in short bursts.

easy mode on fucking horizon

30 years of microplastics buildup in your brain does that

A game that isn't fun even when you're failing is a bad game. PLAYING, not winning, is what should be fun. But most single player games are progression based instead of system based so even winning isn't fun.

A woman making excuses? Color me shocked

Forgot about:

you will never truly know if who you are with actually loves you or has some bizarre ulterior motive.

It really fucks with me.

45 hour work week

kids

seems like a you problem to me, buddy
I work 33 hours a week, have a comfy apartment and still have enough money to go on vacation 3 times a year
I'm not living in a shithole like the US thoughbeit

The issue with this logic is that it sounds like you can only ever play vidya to pass your time, while at the same time admitting that engaging with the gameplay is just tedium and it should be as easy as possible. Maybe you would prefer reading a book, watching a movie, there is no gameplay there and you can get better plots or animations.
If "progress" isn't earned in a game, there is no point. All I see is a 30 yo man who is seeking validation from his peers on fucking Tiktok for sucking at his hobby, not somebody who enjoys it.

The dude is playing Horizon, one of the most brain dead ass shit ever made. It has nothing to do with age buddy. I still set aside 7-8 hours or more while working a full time job. I just brew some coffee and game. Retarded casuals.

First time I saw gameplay of horizon

skill issue

going from normal to easy in a "current year" mass appeal game

Fucking embarrassing and has nothing to do with age slowing down reflexes or having less time.

false, that's for cucked retards.
the true gaming in your 30s is just use cheat engine/save edit to skip all the grind, and just enjoy the good parts of a game.

I was changing tires 6 years ago and now I own a 300k/year business. Where'd you go on vacation?

the jobs that women can't or won't work

NTA but I get you, it fucks with me as well

In this case, I'd make multiple attempts at the boss, then go to sleep.

You feel this way because your life isn't like this so you can't relate. It fucking sucks to spend a bunch of time making zero progress on a game with the only free time you had. That strategy makes sense when you know you can play for another 2-3 hours tomorrow, but when you don't know if you're going to get to play at all tomorrow (or the next day, or the one after that) it makes more sense to drop to easy mode and skip the road block

>Considered ugly if you have any amount of body hair on you, guys don't even have to shave their face.

We speak for ourselves here buddy

Its such a good lie. Basically can only be proven by years of being in the workforce.

work shitty retail job

all the women are paid more because they're lifers

work shitty office job

all the women are paid more because they're HR or executives

work an executive job in finance

there's 0 female employees because its an extremely fast paced, aggressive job

but you make enough for a Ferrari

Its a lie, but such a solid lie that it will probably still be around after I die.

The issue with this logic is that it sounds like you can only ever play vidya to pass your time, while at the same time admitting that engaging with the gameplay is just tedium and it should be as easy as possible.

Or maybe I like playing video games and I just want to enjoy playing the game? The way you talk about video games is really cringe, like you think it makes you an athelete or something

Yeah, same. I think this tired reddit-tier meme is that normie "boomers" grow up and have a wife and kids and shit and only play video games for like 2 hours per week because they have a busy life and legitimate responsibilities to multiple people, not only their job, so they can't really afford (time-wise) to vidya anymore.

I'll change difficulty to easy on RPGs because fuck the grind though I haven't played RPGs outside LaD in years.

my point of view trumps reality

Delusional or just trolling?

Or maybe I like playing video games

You clearly don't if you switch to easy mode in a modern game of all fucking things.

like you think it makes you an athelete or something

No, but it is a game, you play games to engage with the gameplay, not to skip it or trivialize it as much as possible.
If you hate that you should genuinely consider a different hobby, since gameplay is getting in the way of your "fun".

skill issue

This just depends on the game. A lot of times "hard" is the intended difficulty, and easier modes are just added in so that the average retard can actually have a chance at beating the game.

Look at Yggdra Union as one of many examples. The original GBA only had 1 difficulty. On the PSP re-release, an easier "Normal" difficulty was added and the original difficulty became "Hard". And then later when it was ported to the Switch, an even easier "Easy" difficulty was added. So "Hard" is the intended difficulty, and easier modes had to be added in to cater to retards.

Why are women so attracted to HR positions?

Hr was basically invented so Employers could prevent unions before they formed and have a clean way to deny raises/benefits.

Buddy, this is Anon Babble. You're the cringe homo here.

It's unironically good for the mind and developing problem solving skills. Enjoy your Alzheimer's unc.

Man white people age like milk, that guy already looks like a granpa

Gaming after 30 is basically getting 1-3 hours of actual playtime per week, while trying to squeeze in whatever bullshit casual mobile game you have on your phone.

imagine playing a title from the last decade in "normal" mode.

That's the real joke here.

easy = babbymode

normal = easymode

hard = normal

If you are grinding in RPGs made after 1989 you are just bad at the game and need to use buffs retard

getting 1-3 hours of actual playtime per week

LMAO. More like 1-4hrs per day if I want to. Get your shit in order.
t. 39 year old

Don't want to work the dangerous, shitty, demanding, or intellectually challenging jobs that men work

Still want to get paid the same

Women getting paid the same as men without also taking on the destructive burdens of men's work would create inequality. Women only want the cushy jobs they think require no work or skill, like CEO and never stuff like truck driver or oil rig worker. Men being 93% of workplace deaths, working 25% more hours and taking home the same as women would be fucking retarded.

weak nigga, I can beat doom eternal on nightmare

t. 39

you're just not viewing reality

That's really the only defense of the lie. Anyone who grew up in 00s or older knows women get paid the same, if not more for the same work and usually get additional benefits.

Most of the retail jobs I've had let women opt out of physical labor. They were never required to do break downs or intake. I didnt want to do it either but my choice was quit or do it. Must be nice.

Needing to grind in an RPG

Literally a skill issue. The ability to grind exists solely to allow lower skilled players a way to overcome challenges that doesn't require thinking.

Gaming companies just need to accept that us aging gamers don't have time to play these games any more. Most of us are juggling 3 kids, marriages / divorces, and in this economy a lot of us are dealing with two jobs. We only have maybe an hour a week to play.
60 hour games? How about we cut it down to 8.
Unfair games with no difficulty options? This needs to end. My time is precious, and I and many many many others wont just go wasting it on games like this. Kids are probably going to freak out to my post, because they have zero responsibilities, zero obligations, and zero lives, but I assure you you'll end up like us gamer dads some day.

Good for him! Married men don't have much time to waste like non-married boys.

Any man with kids is automatically better than the average Anon Babbleirgin

work from home computer job

automate all of my responsibilities

now have 40 hours a week to play video games

waow

Are video games just a tedium for these people? I play harder difficulty because it's just not fun at all to not even have to engage with the gameplay and learn to beat challenges. It doesn't matter if i'll beat it quicker and i have a limited amount of time if it's not even enjoyable anymore on easy. It's much more fun to actually have to play the game even if i don't make much progress, compared to not even actually playing the game like these "people"

Having to play on Explorer in Horizon 2

That game had a serious problem with being too easy, struggling on Normal is wild, and I say that as someone who generally playings on Normal in most games.

Congrats hun you just found out not everyone plays for the same reason as you. Your first step in growing up :) we're so proud of you.

system shock 1 had difficulty options for every core facet of the game. is THAT slop to you?

Get your shit in order.

Get a wife and kid you genetic dead end, and don't bother larping like you do, no married father has 4 hours a day for games.

Extremely based. I too had that until my retard CEO ran the business into the ground.

while i disagree that all games need an easy mode, difficulty options being included are fine. those have existed since the early days of console gaming. hell, pretty sure some arcade games had dip switches to adjust difficulty too. idk why people bitch about it now.

Hard work ages you rapidly, and this fellow has never done any.

I'm extremely busy with my current life and only had around 4 hours to play any games in the last 2 weeks and I will never lower the difficulty and I don't think games should have difficulty options.
Fuck niggers and s o y faggots by the way.
Also, fuck people who say old games are "clunky" or "harder" or that they "age."

if you play games for the gameplay then "getting stuck" doesnt matter, you get to play the game regardless. if you play games for a story just watch a streamer play the game for you like all other lazy bastards.

Happens. I realized with this job in particular there are places that will actually trust you do just do your job and as long as you repay that trust with results everything is smooth. It starts from the top though so a retard CEO would never allow that to foster.

oh no... I would get it if it was a different game, but Horizon? man, this game is piss easy, it's so fucking easy it's boring even (if you don't play on the hardest difficulties, that is). still, it's a crappy game, I should not have played it.
the easy mode on that shit is obviously designed for game journalists, if you need that you should just leave the hobby and perhaps even kys

Has to be a jew. Any normal MAN, would increase difficulty.

massive normalnigger cope lol

nword

Cringe.

First, racism is banned outside of Anon Babble.

Second, go back to X.

only you can raise the children

I don’t think you could create a better self report that you’re a virgin than this without literally saying it.

Are you lost? I'm astonished you even know how to greentext

im 34 and live like a teenager still. just replaced school with work.

but i have to breed and have obligations everyday

you dont man

games are boring when they're too easy and usually everything below the hardest is easy

Fuck off, nigger

Depends on your genes. I know a guy from church that has 3 kids and they are all retarded. Some people just weren't meant to have kids, I respect those that can recognize that.

This. I got way too frustrated at games as a kid so if anything, I was more likely to drop it to easy mode lmao. Now I have enough patience and understanding of how games work to get through difficult ones instead of just calling the game cheap and dropping the difficulty down.

Fucks sake being a millennial is so disappointing. I dont know how my generation is just full of bitches.

that discussion always resurfaces when FromSoft releases another game that takes over the world and the casuals cant even grasp the first boss

"<game> is super hard bro"

it has heaps of mechanics that let you breeze through it

"yeah it's hard if you play it properly bro you just shouldn't <engage with half the mechanics>"

quit being such a bitch about it
