dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

What is it with these guys and the shitty anime booba gatcha games? I don't think I've ever seen someone complaining about woke "ruining gaming" that doesn't play the absolute worst empty addictive slop possible. It is honestly like they cannot understand the difference between something enjoyable because they jerk off to it, and something enjoyable because it is a nice experience.

I’m partly convinced the worldwide falling birthrate is because these people find gooning to be easier than tricking women into dating them.

it isn't just the chuds, or just dudes, many of those games are popular with women and enbies
a lot of r&d goes into making sure the predatory gacha games can maximally exploit the vulnerable
one of the vulnerabilities for the boobie gacha games being loneliness

True, their business model isn't to make a good game, but to make an addictive gambling game. The problem is when CHUDs claim to be protecting the "sacred art of gaming" and yet almost exclusively play the worst examples of the medium and get offended at everything else.

I know right? Porn already exists! Lots and lots of porn!

I have a love-hate relationship with how the (chinese especially like Hoyoverse or Kuro Games) game companies use gooner fanservice sometimes, then the whole 'discussion' about WuWa (Wuthering Waves, gacha game, genshin but from Kuro Games) winning the Players' Voice because of "no DEI" (???) I had to ignore it to not get myself in thata argument since I can't judge for myself if that's true since I haven't played WuWa in a while but likely either untrue or exaggeration (there's a LOT of reasons, but I know one of them is not DEI).
