My cat only sees a myriad of places to throw up.
Slop.

I have friends who own their own home and at first I thought this was literally their place, only way I can tell it isn't is because there aren't cat toys and dirty clothes everywhere (It was awful to be there when they first moved in, but it feels a little more "lived in" now, and they have more interesting decorations now).
I don't understand this decorating mindset, where everything has to be derivative of some kind of product. Maybe I don't get it as an "artsy" person because all the artistically and musically inclined people I know decorate their homes with paintings and knickknacks from places they've been, stuff with sentimental value.
I suppose that's what the movie posters and lego millennium falcons and funko pops are to these people, they are sentimental, because some people mostly experience the world through their tv screens, through fiction.
I was not expecting to feel sad about a pretty standard millennial living room and study today, but here we are.
Yknow what? It's clean. I give it a B
See, that’s the part that makes it feel a little off. Now, I will grant that I’m sure they cleaned up before taking the pictures and if I came to their house on a random Tuesday it would be more cluttered. But being too neat gives it the vibe of a place that’s not actually lived in. Like it’s not a place they go to enjoy their hobbies and media, it’s a show to impress other other dudes who are into these franchises.
Organized mess beats whatever the fuck these pictures are trying to convey.

When i lived on my own i don't think my place was ever clean enough to take a pic and post it online so like... looks fine to me? Needs more goofy shit for my taste but it's obviously taken care of
He has furniture i give him a passing grade
0 books
Come at me haters but I see this and I'm like a child lives here
It just doesn't say anything about like, real life, it looks like the home of someone who mostly plays video games and watches 'content' in an expensive personal theater. I wrote this out and was judging this person before looking at the rest of the pics, I feel even more judgemental now having looked at the post just because of the sheer amount of toys and plastic things on display, nothing wrong with that necessarily but that is ALL there is, and thinking of the money they must have spent on toys for themselves to put on a gray shelf makes me hate Amerikkka more.

I wish I had my own place
These "I'm mysterious and silent" type guys used to be cool and nonconformist and proud of niche hobbies, now it's just normie shit (Hollywood, Wh40k, Brandon Sanderson etc).
I had to spend time taking in this delicious slop. After some reflection:
-
The drab grey interior isn't a killer by any means if he open the window blinds to show the greenery outside. I knew someone who had a room that was completely white. The white room was also right next to the backyard and the white room had massive windows that they constantly keep the blinds open. Having plants in the background takes away a lot of the sterile feeling that having a drab grey interior would produce.

The combination of everything being clean and brand new gives a completely sterile "this looks like a museum exhibit" vibe. There's absolutely no evidence that the dude or any human actually lives here. You could get away with this if you have worn furniture. For example, if the table and chair in the action figure room were worn out, then it wouldn't have that sterile feeling anymore because the table and chair would've been worn out from use. I think people like OP conflate something being clean and something being new. You could absolutely have a clean worn out table (that's how most people's tables look like).

No tools just gives me the impression that he's a talentless consoomer who literally buys everything, including the labor to assemble his treats. This particular aesthetic just speaks to a deep-rooted contempt of labor. Where's the screwdriver for his assembled gaming PC? Where's the paint for his assembled action figures? He like the vast majority of homeowners obviously has tools, but it's a clear aesthetic choice to hide those tools as if they're something to be ashamed of. This also fits neatly into your critique about him not showing his kitchen. He probably has perfectly functional knives and other cooking utensils, but because they aren't brand new (see point 2) and shows that he has to occasionally gets his hands dirty like a filthy prole, they must be squirreled away.

The four (4) PCs just takes the cake. First of all, he splurged money on four (4) complete gaming PCs instead of reusing parts like a normal person. Second of all, he lacks the technical skills to repurpose those PCs into something cool like some home server(s). Third of all, those PCs don't even look different from one another to show off. At least throw in a beige box (which would go well with the rest of the house lol) or something. And not that fake beige box which is obviously a PC case made in ~2020 but a real beige box where you need to unscrew 10 screws before taking the case out. It's funny that I could actually pull this off a lot better than him because I have a PC from circa 1995, a PC from circa 2005, and a PC from 2013. The only main obstacle is the 2005 PC is in an anachronistic beige box even though PCs from that era have moved past the beige box aesthetic. It also would work a lot better than four (4) gaming PCs because my memories associated with those PCs are very different from one another because they are spaced ten years apart from each other. Meanwhile, he's just using those PCs to consoom AAA slop.
I'm also scrolling through other posts on that subreddit and check this one out: https://old.reddit.com/r/malelivingspace/comments/1r5y07e/inspired_by_recent_star_wars_post/ This is literally just a cooler version of OP. Unlike OP's soulless consumerism, you could also see this person's personality come out of the aesthetic. The helmet collection is kinda creepy, but he's 100% aware of and leans hard to it right down to putting the lifesize figure of frozen Han Solo in the same room as the helmets. He needs a predator mask helmet or better yet a predator statue to really sell home the point. It's still consumerism, but it at least has some soul to it.

My thought too but most museum exhibits of this sort actually have some degree of interactivity.
THANK YOU for reacting to this like a normal person. The whole thing about no tools is so true - it's a better explanation for why I felt so weirded out by the lack of the kitchen. It's all consumption.
It's not even consuming it, just hording.

It looks very boring but dreamcast is swag. The only interior design I want is old library because it does something to my brain. That or I want to live in a Cathedral.


Creaking wood, whispering, ticking of clock, shuffling of pages.... OOOOoooooOOooOOoOoOOhh bonus points for faint musty odour
That or I want to live in a Cathedral.
Evian bottle themed room, got it.
Gorgeous
First picture made me think of the Cincinatti Library 
The top one looks vaguely AI but I want green mushroom lamp
Imagine having all that money and spending it on yourself, for your own pleasure and to impress others. This kind of mentality, and a nice fat hunk of wealth distributed to the aristocratic 10% of workers (yea they are blended with the managerial class and dip their toes into the capitalist class's pool, but ultimately they go to work to be able to survive) is what keeps the fantasy that "capitalism works" alive. I'm sure this person did work hard, did study hard, and now enjoys material success, but they remain blind that the privilege of their 10% status rests directly upon the emiseration of the 90%, and props up the 0.1%. Something something paycheck depends on not understanding shit.
Pairing Godzilla vs T-Rex like they are anywhere near the same size is a true red flag crime. Godzilla could literally crush T-Rex under a foot.
- Why do you need 4 gaming PCs?
- There's no photos of OP or any other human being they might know. Nothing that indicates particular ownership by an individual. Just an accumulation of objects around the space where a personality should be.
- Hits me as a person that never does incremental upgrades, or reuses any parts. They just build a new PC whenever the next generation GPU comes out.
i tend to hold onto computers long enough that the cpu socket changes so i can't really re-use shit. save up for the better part of 10 years, buy something top of the line, save up for another ten years.
There's no excuse to not reuse the case especially since the cases aren't even that different.
The inside of my closet has the scavenged corpses of like 6 or 7 machines some just the case, some in various states of dissection. Having 4 functional PCs? Excessive. But like others said this sounds like the kind of dweeb who has every PC he's used since '95 on display.
Nah, this is a lot worse than that. It's just three contemporary gaming PCs with an older model PC. There's no reason why he can't reuse parts or reuse those PCs as home servers. At least the 95 era PC has obsolete parts (pre PS/2 ports, pre-DDR RAM) and looks different (beige box).
If i had the money and space id have my dream pc from each era from win 95 to now
I never thought my hundreds of thousands of dollars of Funko Pops and I would be able to afford to own a home. Yet here we are, living our best lives, together!
I can't believe this person likes their walls and lights a different color than the way I like my walls and lights
This is an outrage
I need to let everyone know I am morally superior to this person because my lights are a different color
This person either drives a Tesla or a Buick, I feel it in my bones.
Apparently this is like $240k in collectibles and a $3,000 speaker setup.
I feel like these rooms would look a lot nicer with some better color choices. A brown wood floor I feel would provide a lot more contrast.
In fairness to this guy repainting/changing out track lighting/recessed lights aren't things that everyone's capable of, but at the very least add some obnoxious RGB lighting. It looks like a fucking doctor's office in there.
I'm going to criticize the WETA Space Marine 2 sculpture. That shit is a huge ripoff at $1400 and this guy is a sucker. It even comes fully assembled! You don't get to paint it or assemble it or anything!
As to my opinion on the rest of the space, I plead the fifth.
It's what I hate about all the WH collector memorabilia...it comes painted and assembled. I don't want that stuff all done up. The default should require glue and paint.
I know it's gatekeeping because not everyone has the time/resources to get into Warhammer but they still want to enjoy parts of it. But what irritates me is filthy secondaries will whine and complain about "Muh lore! Muh femaaaaaaaale genetically engineered supersoldiers aren't cannon!" Just fuck off with that nonsense.
The person who put the time and effort into painting their female Custodes has priority when it comes to fluff. Or the purple-skinned ork player. Or the catgirl maid Imperial Guard. The whole point of Warhammer was to give people an excuse to use whatever toy soldiers to play against anyone else's toy soldiers without needing to worry about historical accuracy or cannon or whatever.
