Can you imagine being alive 50 years from now where stuff like

i cant even imagine being alive in 2 years

i cant even imagine being alive in 2 months

>>385624509

yeah. because life is a fucking meaningless meme. enjoy what you have because the possibilities don't even exist yet. and the farther way you are off of perfection the better, because if you've experienced everything you've already wanted already, you'd want nothing out of life. so any wishing for the future now if wishing for 5 minutes, hours, maybe months of fun. but eventually you'll be stuck questioning your expectations. and never want or wish for anything ever again. because you already experienced it all, even if it was through a digital medium. n this only applies to videogames in this specific context, but same thing for the world in general. so be lucky you are in a timeline where you see forward progression, instead of active stagnation.

I don't plan to live past 40 at the moment

>there will be some great games that will be unplayable in 50 years time as the consoles to play them on will no longer function or because no one kept ROMs for emulation

>>385624509
that'll only take 10 years

This is why I keep saying to myself that I'll download a full pack of gamecube/PS2 games. But I've never found one.

It's probably too late now.

>>385624509
>Can you imagine being alive 50 years from now
I can't even imagine that I will be alive in 1 year

>>385624509
In 50 years time the PS4 won't be considered retro, it'll be considered ancient technology. Think of how far removed we are technologically from the 60's which was 50 years ago, hell think how far removed we are from the 80' or 90's. The gap is just going to get more and more vast, we'll look aback at 2017 tech as fossils.

yes?

50 years ago the IBM 1360 PDSS was revealed. You know what that is? Me either. Nobody is going to give a fuck about the PS4 in 15 years, much less 50.

>50 years from now
That's way beyond retro. In 50 years the PS4 will be nearly 10 years older than the fucking Magnavox Odyssey is now.

>>385624509
>50
the ps4 will be retro in 10 years

There's been unironic call of duty threads where it's painfully obvious most posters in them are underage or phoneposting.

>some kids are, and some kids will grow up with shitty broken games, day 1 DLC, F2P skin boxes in every game, online that costs money on top your own internet connection

>>385625453
Well, they kinda already are.

>>385624509
Hopefully in fifty years I'll have the choice to download my brain to some kind of virtual reality where I can live out any number of fantasies and lives for eternity because of time dilation. Then when I'm finally bored of transcendence I'll kill myself for real real.

>>385627961
Apparently by 2030 you'll be able to get a robot to scan your brain indepth through a process that simultaneously kills you and makes a perfect AI copy of you.

Anyone else locked in an eternal existential crisis?

How do I escape?

>>385628524
There is no escape only death anon

>>385628524
Just remember that your self awareness is amazing and unique. You've only got one chance at that, so find a way to enjoy it. Not every aspect of life has to be wasting it at the expense of others.

>hur dur I'm old lmao fuck new technology on my day we got fucked hard so how dare technology advance so new generations can take advantage of it

Kill yourselves

>>385624509
No. But 10 years ago I also could not see myself being alive 10 years from then and proceeded to do nothing with my life because I was sure I would be dead. And yet here I am.

>>385624738
>>385624852
i wont be alive in 2 s

I still don't really think of stuff from 20 years ago as being old or retro

and the older I get the more that's true. I barely even think of the atari 2600 or apple 2 as being old anymore

as you collect experience the length of time that you consider to be 'a long time ago' gets bigger

>>385625016

This is some next level shit

>a process that simultaneously kills you
explain, I thought it only made a copy of your brain and nothing would happen to the real you like in that Ronnie comic

>>385624509
I'm going to assume it will be like how to people born in the 90's stuff like the atari, intellivision, and zxspectrum are super old.

Can you imagine being alive 50 years from now when heterosexuality will be considered retro?

Can you imagine being alive 50 years from now?

the 360 is already retro because that was the first console for 98% of /v/, fuck sakes there's been nostalgia thread over halo odst.

Will /v/ still be around in 50 years? Am I destined to be shitposting here with other senile anons?

>>385632752
you what? 98%

>>385632752

If it makes you feel any better, my first console was the Atari 5200.

>>385632390
Can you imagine being alive?

>4chan finally closes due to lack of funds
>'see you space cowboy' is all that's left on the front page

God, I don't want /v/ or 4chan to die. Where would I go without you faggots?

>>385632752
There's no time limit on nostalgia. That being said there's no way 7th gen was the first one for even half of /v/.

>>385632892
ten years ago i never imagined this place being around and kids talking about the ps2, xbox, dreamcast, n64 and so on as being retro systems. we had threads where we joked about this.

>>385634024
somewhere nicer

>>385633493
Can you imagine being dead?
What do you see

>>385634350
>nicer

I don't want nicer, I can get that fake bullshit from my day to day life.

>>385624509
Make it 30 years. Hopefully ill live at my 60s.

The ps4 was retro even before it launched. Using outdated shit hardware like that.

>>385632892
I give internet anonymity 10 more years, tops.

>>385634815
It's even retro now, since it has no games.

>>385625773
No, they weren't. The first Halo game came out in November 2001, two months after 9/11.

>>385624509
Hahah! Nope! I drink, like, seven cocktails a night, so I'll be dead in 20 years, tops.

>>385631068
F

>can you imagine being alive 50 years from now when playstation consoles would still be considered a joke

sony is the only console manufacturer that never understood gaming, they will never be well regarded by anyone

>>385625773
What are the twin towers? are you talking about that lord of the rings movie?

>>385624509
i don't think much from this gen will be remembered

>>385636238
honestly you're right, 10 years from now, nothing from this gen will be cared about

>>385635789
officially maybe

>>385636238
except for mighty no 9 which is exposed years later when everyone worships it

>>385624509
I remember being little and being blown away by SNES graphics when it first came out. I've since grown numb to gaming leaps in things but I have a feeling it will be like that.

>>385625016
Lol and then you go to hell hahahhahaha
Fact

is anyone else kinda terrified of growing old playing vidya games?

i mean already games are filled with sjw nonsense god knows whats next

what happens if i lose my reflexes? i dont want to be bad again at fighting games...

what if i get dementia? i cant imagine playing the same game over and over again thinking ive never played it before!

what i lose my hair? how do role play if im a 70 year old man.....fantasying about that or my waifu would be even more hopeless....

>>385637268
im 38 and my reflexes are still fine. you only lose them when you stop playing vidya for a very long time

>>385637268
i cant imagine playing the same game over and
over again thinking ive never played it before!

that's a good thing. i want to experience RDR all over again

>>385628524
Two ways

Stop caring or get drowned in passion towards something

pick one

>>385624509
Games will be so shit, shit like Mass Effect: Andromeda will be talked like it's Deus Ex and System Shock 2 combined

>>385634024
There are other imageboards, you know.

>>385638560
>There are other imageboards, you know.

I know. Now go back to plebbit, your favourite image board.

>>385638560

I want to love you

>>385637268
>i cant imagine playing the same game over and over again thinking ive never played it before!
Actually, I'd love to be able to experience some of my favorite games for the first time again.

>>385631068
I won't be ali

>>385639008
I want to love your cute tight bootyhole

>>385633493
Can you imagine?

>>385624509
PS4 already is last gen.

Technology is fine, but getting older I just want to replay old ps1, saturn, and dreamcast games. Nostalgia is the only way I enjoy games anymore.

>>385625016
t. loser
This is what videogames do to you

>>385624509
Bitch please atari 2600 was my first console.
It is like I am already a fucking fossil.
