Im pretty sure we all have that one friend that was extremely questionable taste in terms of quality where it can be described as backasswords. Like preferring to eat objectionably low quality burger at Mcdonalds than to spend the same amount of money for a better experience at an actual burger joint. To the point where its more objective rather than subjective.

I have a friend who quit habitual weed smoking after his step-father got him to smoke, but that doesn't explain why he sold his PS4 and all his games for 200 bucks, then re-bought them, only buys Mario games and I suspect he likes having the consoles more then playing the games.
He wants people to play with him but only wants to play Mario games and goes after very basic game shit if nothing current is available, like Chess and Uno.
This dude is 23 or 24. He's the reason why I don't think weed has benign side effects, his thinking is clearly impaired in regular conversation, he's very odd when he texts, he goes off on odd tangents and mumbles a lot (mostly projecting himself onto other people by asking questions meant for someone else and answering them as if he knows what people think), and he's been clean for 5 years. It takes a shit-ton to get him angry, like people at work have to actually gang up and make fun of him to actually get him pissed, which has only happened once, and all it got out of him was a few curse words, which is beyond rare. His reactions are so subdued that it's hard to tell if he feels anything, you have to know him for a while to understand what he's feeling.
I've actually had to tell him how conversation works, and he's getting better at it, but when we started he didn't know how to converse, interrupted all the time and obsessively talked about nintendo games, but I think that was because he didn't have much else to talk about and was nervous. Now he's better and a little less scatterbrained, but that's because I reigned him in hard and acted like a pseudo-father by catching his mistakes at work and in conversation and making sure he heard me. I had a breakthrough when he sold his console and regretted it and he actually respects my opinions and words now because it was like the 3rd time I predicted what he'd feel like afterwords and that's when he actually started listening. I think his family was very uninvolved in his life and frankly didn't give a shit about him. It's a shame, because he's once of the nicest people I know.
Though this means I have unironically met the closest thing to an actual Nintendrone. This isn't a joke either, he's actually like this, it's actually kind of sad. All people like him really need is for someone to care. He has a girlfriend somehow, so I think that helped.

Few people start that shit after 25, and there's not enough data to make a conclusion on 25 and up because no study can just up and have a guy doing weed, and the data surrounding weed is tainted in that you have to actually get an addict who's been on weed to focus on the fucking subject. Weed's dangerous to the smoker. Shit's fucking horrible. And it's not like it makes you feel better, it just makes you feel less. Pretty much every drug dulls sensations like that or fucks you out of your mind enough that any feeling you had never mattered. Drugs are pushed by the media because there's money in it especially on a high money social class level, and most of your perceptions about drugs and even gay sex come from entertainment media while loads of details that make it not worth it are omitted.

Because he had asked pretty much everyone to buy something to play with him and he always just stopped playing whatever it was he just bought. People had caught on to him and just made fun of him for it whenever he did it. So one day everyone just took the piss at him, including me, it's like it was meant to happen because it just snowballed.
He's generally weird so we just naturally ganged up on him and implied he had a Mario fetish, and that was the second time he actually cursed. "It's way fuckin better then those shitty bitch anime games" under his breath or something, since nothing was really coming out we played fighting games online. Not much, but still. I apologized to him and let him know we're his friends anyway, and naturally he's an easy forgiver so no real harm was done, but I told him why that happened in the first place. He actually needed it, because it shook him out of that pattern of picking up and dropping games, and now he actually plays games with others more often. No one actually hates the guy, it's near impossible to.
tl;dr some people need to be bullied once in a while.

I think your friend is pretty much a textbook schizotypal. That means he´s just a harmless weirdo who has odd thinking, speech and a severely reduced affect. I´m glad to hear that he´s doing better and that he has someone who cares for him. You sound like a good friend to be honest.

This. If he likes story games, show him Deus Ex, Morrowind, and Metal Gear Solid. From there you can ease him into System Shock, Ultima VII, and Resident Evil, and now you've given him a good basis of games with less hand-holding and more exploration.
Alternatively, get him hooked on JRPGs with Ni No Kuni or FF7 and go deeper into the genre from there.

The retard always chose the worst food, the worst games, the worst places to go to party or celebrate something, the worst and ugliest girls. After years of not hearing from my friend about the retard, i found out that currently, the retard is married to a literal prostitute, and is engaged in militant communist activities.

At the CC I went to some years back, there was a PS3 set up in the student lounge for people to use, and occasionally there would be some people playing less-than-normalfag-interest games on it. Multiplayer, even. One of the guys that shared some classes I was taking and sat nearby was also a weeb. He was pretty decent, but didn't know a thing about obscuring his power level. Though he wasn't the only one in those classes that had that problem, and I'd take him wanting to talk Fire Emblem, Vocaloid, or various anime during downtime any day, over the class furry yaoi landwhale fujoshit trying to brag about her new custom fursuit and how she'd roped her boyfriend and son into going to the next yiffcon or whatever to anyone that was in proximity. Anyhow, point I'm making is that I'd wager that there are at least going to be some people there that share your interests, but if they're wise to keeping their power level in check, chances are you'll have to go out of the way to find them. Though, in the case of Final Fantasy, that's at least pretty normalfag tier as far as JRPGs go. Probably much easier to find other people in the wild that like it than others deeper in the genre.
Still, it's much easier to find people of like interest when you have a bigger sea to trawl from. That's why the internet's a good place to find others interested in more niche topics compared to just people in your local area. Personally I get most of my interactions, and have for over a decade, from anonymous imageboards. If it's that hard for you to even find someone interested in Final Fantasy around where you are, you might as well resign yourself to internet discussion.

If you want to help him, help get his car sorted through a reliable mechanic, or help get it replaced with something much easier to maintain if it's a fucking lemon. I drive a police interceptor because it was cheap, the replacement parts are (largely) cheap, and the work is mostly easy to do, because everything isn't jammed into two cubic feet under the hood. People always do stupid shit like buy new, or uncommon cars when they're broke, then go even more broke having to pay $500 to fix a busted water pump, or $1200 to deal with fixing the suspension.
People who are depressed because of real life problems cannot be shaken out of it by talking with other people. It takes real change to have any effect, if it's not already too late to do anything. Distraction is the first step. Doing things as often as possible that aren't your horrible job, or dealing with your shitbag family, or whatever else makes you want to go on a starvation and sleep diet.

I had a friend who has a vita and plays the worst type of weeb VN garbage along with whatever as long as its anime
It would be ok if he had standards for games. I don't care if its weeb or not, but he would play shit if it had an anime design.
He would exclusively watch shoujo anime for the romance too.
I told him just go fuck some bitch on tindr then drop her after the fuck if hes that needed but his waifu-ism was getting creepy after he played Persona 5. his waifu was Futaba and he would get figurines, mousepads, dakis, you name it. Pretty sure he faps to her and shit.
I don't mind that he has a waifu, but holy fuck get some fucking taste. Futaba is shit.

His more impulsive moments is directly because of drug abuse, impulse control being crippled is a common thing from that. In fact I'd say he is still addicted to something but he isn't telling you. His low energy drive and slowness to getting angry is because he feels dissociated with everything around him most likely because he's still day dreaming whatever suits his fancy pretty much all the time, he's literally coasting through life at the bar minimum to get by while his head is in the clouds.
As for why he's weird it could be that he's a mongrel, or worse he's emotionally damaged and he's simply not aware of it.

In defense of your retard friend, The Surge isn't that bad it has good level design and weighty combat but the characters are dull and the setting uninteresting until the second half & Warframe is enjoyable.
And with regards to DMC4, look I've spent more time on that game and DMC3 than I care to admit and while I feel proud of my cuhrayzeeness I know that none of the DMC games, except for the new one, are easy to pick up, let alone become good at. That said his comparison with GoW4 is simply retarded.

Unless you've made some kind of promise to them - you don't owe them anything. If they are different people now the best you can do is to be as objective as possible while answering these questions: "Will you be content with yourself in the future and not feel guilt for your actions in the present if everything fails miserably?" and "Do you want to worsen life of everyone around you to have a shot at fixing the future?"

I'm just going to throw this out into the thread, since I think there's enough posts about this kind of stuff that it'd be fine.
How exactly do I come to grips with being alone? I know how to make fair-weather friends, and I know how to make good friendships, but as far as meeting people I feel completely isolated and shit out of luck. My tastes are pretty easy to digest, too. My work reflects it, and I know it's the case because the reception I've always gotten to it is genuine excitement at the art style.
The biggest problem I have is just, I can't really relate to most people. I've been struggling to accept that, but it's undeniable that I fundamentally don't, for most people.
I should clarify that I have tried going to meetups, talking to weeb classmates, and the sorts, but the kinds of people there also just leave me feeling further isolated. It was a bad sample, that much I'll recognize, but every single person there had their life in complete disorder, and couldn't relate to me at all.

My brother moved in with his friends and eventually moved out because they expected him to actually clean up his messes instead of just letting it spread like it did when he lived with our mom. His mess back then was horrifying.
>pile of used kleenex on the floor at the foot of his bed, almost as tall as the best

>every surface in the living room he could use for storage was covered in his old junk food garbage. chairs, tables, desks, etc.
Descriptions don't do it justice. I remember, before I moved out, I went on a two week long vacation. I did dishes the day before I left, and when I came back the sink was overflowing with dishes, mostly his, and many were moldy. He just gave me a smug, shit-eating grin and said "Dishes need to be done". Knew as soon as he moved in with his friends it would end badly for him. Me, I'm messy too, but it's organized chaos. The mess doesn't spread and I know where things within it are.

I've fantasize about it a lot over the years. He's one of those annoying twats who "likes to banter" but gets angry the moment you do it back. Shoot his mouth off all day but if you shoot back he just yells and starts swinging. I could rant about him all day. For a while as kids, we had a tv in my room. The rule was "you can't kick your brother out because it's his tv too". So he would come in at 6 am on the weekend, jump onto the bed (he still doesn't know how to sit down normally, it's a miracle he doesn't break more chairs with the way he sits), usually on my legs, and play games with the volume cranked up while he screamed at them. When he got grounded, part of which was no tv, he would do the same thing but without the games. I still wasn't allowed to kick him out, even though he had no reason to be in my room because he couldn't use the tv. He's the type of faggot who hears a raunchy joke, then loudly retells it in a crowded restaurant and blames the person he heard it from.

It's how the world is for anyone that isn't middle-aged and rolling in cash. Either lower your standards or keep moving on and don't look back. You're probably better off doing the latter in the long run because making friends who don't have at least some of their shit sorted isn't worth it.

Story goes he got into an accident in his Dad's car (chinese driver backed into him reversing out of a parking spot so not his fault but he literally could have dodged it by letting go of the brakes and rolling forward) which made his Dad pretty pissed and wouldn't let him use the car. Thing is his family has another shared car he's meant to be allowed to use but never does which made me suspicious. I had already helped him get back into the driver's seat after he complained about being too scared to go out driving after a near accident but all I'm hearing is how he's making his Dad do all his driving for him lately. People like that will only use your ability to get things done to compensate for their lack of will to improve themselves and in the end it's only up to you if you want to keep that kind of company around.

I was in the same boat as you for a while, but eventually I snapped out of it when the friend I was trying to help, went behind my back and started blaming me for his own shortcomings. Saying I was convincing him to do something he didn't want to, or trying to get him to "give up on his dream," but the thing is the guy absolutely hates and agonizes over this thing he's doing. And he outright admitted to me he still largely does it entirely because it gets him attention, and it's what he thinks other people want from him.
At that point I told him to fuck off, and stopped talking to him, and started to realize how people won't change unless they want to. Case and point, your friend. I'm at the point now where I've gotten comfortable enough being communicative with people I know, that if someone's doing something bullshit, I'll tell them, and likewise they'll tell me. I'll also explain what's on my mind, even if I think it's wrong, but when I do think it's wrong I preface with a statement that I think it's wrong. Etc.
Basically if you can't just state what's on your mind, with someone, and what they're doing. Either for fear of a furious response, being too immature to handle the criticism, or being unable to understand what you're saying? They're not worth talking to. At all. That's not to say you're "better" than them, it's just if you think about it for a second it's completely pointless, and you can spend your time talking to better people. Or, as detrimental as it is, even being alone/lonely is still better than being with someone just using you.
So yeah, that's a big chunk of why I'm alone/lonely. Especially in the romantic department, given how hard it is to find a guy who can carry a conversation, and has his life as together as mine, let alone a girl.

I can only speak from experience on the matter:
I never feel lonely unless I start socialize with people, which is kinda ironic. Not including a select few people I grew up with, though. This is especially true for girls because the majority of them are just so fucking normal it's like talking to a cardboard cutout. I didn't really start to curb it for good until I let my passion for what I cared about /agdg/ dictate my life. I suppose it's like a light at the top of this pit of despair I'm climbing out of, that maybe I'll find my own niche crowd. Working towards something is a good way to deal with how shit things are now.
You where kinda vague about what your work is, but I assume artstyle means you're a painter/illustrator/etc. I'd just go as far as you can with this, if it's what you want to do. And by what I mean by want to do, is if you think it's your calling in life. Maybe going to art galleries and events in real life to show off what you've made, so at least you can attract people who have the same interests as you.

I grew up with them and they live right near by. Plus his brother always helped me fix up my car when I needed help (he was a mechanic).

He was always kind of a fat asshole, but Trump who he calls Orange Hitler getting elected broke him completely. I can barely tolerate speaking casually for a few mins with the guy now.
As for my friend liking DoW3? Nothing new with him. He has shit taste in vidya He also LOVES SupCom 2, Minecraft, Warframe, and Diablo 3. I can get him to try better shit, but he will always retreat back to his cancer games after a week or two once he finds an excuse to stop playing whatever I suggested.

My pet theory is that it does this, and what makes it different is that it makes you okay with being bored, and that's where the real harm comes in. Boredom is the thing that pushes a person to go find something interesting, whether it's learning or building or engaging in an activity or whathaveyou. When you get comfortable with wherever you are, you either settle into it and enjoy it like the aboriginals did in Australia or you get bored and find something else to fix/make/improve.
Boredom built dams and put a man on the moon. Weed builds self-loathing and put worthless sacks of flesh on the couch.

It bothers me because she really likes Zelda games and I know she'll fall in love with it once she actually plays it. She's not very good at vidya though, and I think that stops her from branching out more. She couldn't be Iudex Gundyr.

Most of the people I know play League, PUBG/Fortnite, or gay f2p games like War Thunder. Of the friends willing to play decent games, one of them is often too busy, two of them won't touch strategy games (which are my favourite), and another 3 are super loners who won't even tell me when they're online. Those 3 will at least do LANs so I'll give them that.
My busy friend is by far the one who aligns with my interests best, so him not being able to game much hurts the most. Our biggest games are Doom, Helldivers, Supreme Commander, Dawn of War, Sword of the Stars, Insurgency, and recently we've been trying Stellaris (though as of my first few hours, I feel like Stellaris might be kind of shitty as a multiplayer game).
My LAN friends have been playing Pulsar: Lost Colony with me, and we're all getting Monster Hunter World on PC (assuming the port is good), so I can't even say they're bad.

It has Denuvo, and if that alone isn't enough for you to disregard it, based on the system requirements shown it's probably not very well optimized, especially compared to most MT Frameworks games. The recommended specs say you'll need a GTX1060 to run it at 30fps 1080p on high. For comparison, Nioh gets 60fps at 1080p with a GTX1060. Nioh isn't MT Frameworks, but it's the most recent game comparable to World to get a port from PS4 to PC that I can think of. RE7, a fairly recent MT Frameworks game, lists the same hardware recommendations as World but for 60fps instead of 30fps.

If it really made you happy you wouldn't be arguing about your right to shit taste with internet strangers. You know, deep down, you don't like what you do with yourself. You know eating at McDonald's is bad and bad for you, you know choosing to own a tiny house instead of simply living frugally within a mansion would be stupid, and you know you're too much of a fat slob to ever change. Stop lying to yourself.
Taste isn't personal preference. Taste is one's ability to measure the objective qualities of art (such as form, texture, line, shape, colour, depth in paintings) and recognize how well they do or do not execute the artist's vision. Citizen Kane is still the best movie ever made in the American canon because it uses the techniques of cinematography, mise-en-scene, shot composition, and so on better than any other film before or since. It's boring as sin to sit through, but everyone who considers himself a film buff should sit through it at least once for just that reason.
Your AAA garbage games are just that: garbage. They don't challenge you, they don't ask you to do anything you haven't done before, and they will never surprise you. You're an animal, cultivated by Jews and marketers to salivate when they ring a bell; you ought to be ashamed of yourself because you have given up what little spark of enjoyment a man could ever hope to gain from playing video games or experiencing any work of fiction - being challenged and surprised by new ideas or appreciating craftsmanship. You are an Ikea Human (read this, you might learn something: http://archive.is/MQgQe).
You're also apparently stupid and slow enough to consider BUYING anything made by EA, and eight fucking years behind on Battlefield: Bad Company 2's DLC. /v/ isn't a place for people like you and I sincerely hope you leave and never come back; this kind of self-pitying sad sack behaviour is disgusting in the same way a sow being rutted in her own filth is disgusting.

>If you're looking for an interesting conversation from a woman
I'm expecting them to disappoint me, it's more I'm uncompromising on my standards. I meet them, so anyone I spend time with should be able to adhere to basic standards of human decency, and conversational skills. Especially given I'm rather poor at them, particularly among friends, where if I get prompted on a topic I like, (or prompt myself) I end up monologueing for potentially over an hour.
But above that, I'm still able to just talk to, and be open with, anything that's bothering me. Like, here's an example
>sharing idea of something with a friend
>he points out flaws in it
>unlike most times, I don't immediately reflect and see where he's coming from
>end up calling him a wet blanket, since he can't articulate why he's being critical of the idea
>the next day realize the mistake I made, and apologize
>he accepts it, apologizes too (IIRC), and we move on back to what we were talking about.
Or on "engaging," earlier today, we talked for an hour about the sounds of video game OSTs, and how they can radically impact the tone.
And I'm aware most women won't ever be able to do that. Which is why I'm alone, and not hooking up with girls that I could get with, given the odds of the relationship being miserable. So yeah, I refuse to "settle," despite what others will say about that mentality.
>>15153472
No yeah, I know exactly what you mean. It's a webcomic.
My comic is basically my "calling" in life, it's acted as my anchor, and it's helped me tremendously. I'm willing to post it here, if anyone's curious. At the risk of changing the impression of anyone who can connect the dots, or recognizes it, it's no stretch to say it's literally stopped me from killing myself, on numerous occasions.
Having a "personal project" really does help keep us grounded, but in turn it's ironically alienating, as it's rare to find someone who shares in that drive. Which in turn has me curious what your stuff is. If it'd assuage any unease at sharing it, I'll post mine, if you post yours.

It's called "End Game Was Taken." Search that up, and you'll find it. If you want the elevator pitch:
>DnD "Guild Questing," with Shonen manga magic, in NYC
Mildly longer plot synopsis is:
>guy accidentally encounters one of the monsters, that roam the city
>survives an encounter that should have killed him
>unintentionally gets saved by the green bitch in these
>She notices he survived, sees potential in him
>offers him up "Hey kid, you wanna make some serious money?"
>from there, he starts working for them, as her apprentice, supposedly with her goal being he one day makes her King of Excaliburgh (the city)
And from there I play a lot of tropes of "shonen" straight, but also subvert them. And given the glacial pace I've had to release pages at, lately, I've taken to packing the panels with smaller stuff that contextualizes the world. Like Max (the MC) being confused when Sally (green bitch) whips out some big bulky cordless phone receiver. Which contextualizes that the world here is at 80s tech.
Or how Max is clearly at least 21, given the very first thing we see him do is get toasted long into the night, at a bar.
But even that bar later provides context for other stuff, which I'll spare you on the details of.
Point is, I care a lot about this project, and I'm working on it every day, practicing my generic artistic skills on the side, to better draw said comic, and it's acted as the anchor to my life. And said feelings for it have been infectious, to basically everyone I share it with. The art style in particular seems to grab people, given I've deliberately expanded upon incorporating my influences (Jet Set Radio, Madworld, "Character Action" vidya, Sonic, etc). But in subtler ways. Like, look at Max's hair, the three prongs are deliberate, and should be familiar.

I'm sure it'll be piratable when it's eventually released on PC. From what my MH addict friend and the people in the threads have said, it's very different (and piss easy by virtue of that) but could have been much worse given how much changed. The general attitude seems to be "this is nothing like the MH I'm used to, but I want to keep playing it." Then again, they're MH players so they probably have addictive personalities to begin with.

I was under the assumption it'd be easier as it's becoming more casualised now. Well, I'll pirate it first and buy it if my friends want to buy it too I guess.
I hope there's a way to mod the shit out of the game and return it to its original difficulty

Thanks man, this kind of reaction is a huge chunk of why I even do this.
>… how did you get started? Any tips to the disenfranchised anons on this website?
Hm. That's kind of a loaded question, to be honest, but I talked with one of my friends, who's yet to start the project he really wants to, (but is actually making progress on doing so), about this, and I think I have a better idea.
To put it simply? As disappointingly "common sense" or "dadpill" as this'll sound,
>"Sort your life out."
Let's break it down a bit. From saying
>tfw you're just a writefag
I can tell a few things, and some of them are positive. So let's start with those.
First thing I'll say is that you've written anything at all, that alone is progress towards what you want to do. The second is that you've got the mind to write, ie "you're creative enough to create fictional worlds, and tell stories from them." Which is something most people don't even have, or haven't trained up the ability to. You also have a desire to accomplish something with these ideas, despite how you refer to, presumably, yourself as "disenfranchised." There's also the fact that you're seeking out advice from someone who's doing what you're trying to do, which is again, smart.
I could go on, but you get the idea.
But as many positive aspects as there are, let's examine the negatives. You're clearly insecure over your material, given how you only think of yourself as "just a writefag" displaying a lack of confidence in worthiness of anything above a self depreciating term. You're also obviously not doing it is what you want to, and that could be for a ton of reasons. But what's probably failed to click in your life, is that as long as you have the desire, and intelligence, to, you can "problem solve" every issue that's holding you back.
If I had to guess, just in vague terms and ideas, I think you're likely just afraid of failure, and so you don't start anything up. Because if you weren't afraid of failure, you'd understand that failure is a good thing. Success rarely teaches you anything, but failure leaves you aware of your own shortcomings. Let me explain.
Whether or not you looked up my comic, it's good to put this into perspective.
Look at the drastic difference, in my ability to draw my MC, and how appealingly I can draw, as well as just the raw skill, like how much he aligns with perspective, when things are drawn deliberately flat or adhere to the silhouette, line quality, line weight, etc. Always remember that anyone you look up to, or admire, always had to start out being shit. The only difference is they kept going, and used failure as a learning device.
So at the end of the day, I can't really do much for you beyond tell you "it's up to you."
But at the same time, isn't that at least a bit reassuring? Like, think about it for a second. You are responsible for this, meaning you can change this. As daunting as it is, if you work on it, it's like anything else we work on. It becomes inevitable, as long as you keep a serious effort going.
So yeah, sort your life out, figure out whatever it is that's holding you back (because frankly I can only guess, and the further into what you wrote I read, the more likely I am to be off base), and if you keep a strong goal in mind, your life will fall into place. If you don't, well you'll end up like the "bad future" of Luffy, here. And I don't want to see that happen to you, either.

Basically before the age of 25, the frontal cortex hasn't fully developed in the brain. I don't know the numbers but heavy usage before this age can can really stunt growth in this area of the brain. After 25 it's pretty much fine I'd guess,outside of doing literal fuck tons of it

I'm just going to ignore this and continue to be happy. You don't know me, though thank's for clearing up taste not being personal preference. I just like what i like, sure, some things may be shit but i would never call somebody out for liking something i don't.
And i don't care about EA's bullshit now as i don't own those games that they shill on. The only EA game i own is Battlefield 4 for my PS3. I only have a PS3 so i am excluded from a ton of gaming issues today. I like what i play genuinley, despite you pathetically trying to think for me and telling me what i can and cannot enjoy. And yes, i don't want to live in a huge mansion. I would actually prefer to live in a comfy little hamlet than a huge house with a million bedrooms and bathrooms. I'm in the bottom 10 percent of gamers on /v/. I don't align/fit in with almost everything that you guys talk about because i simply don't give a flying fuck about today's games. I don't care about anything other than what i play. I don't like challenge by the way, i prefer easy mode, gliding through a game without effort. There is a reason why i love getting hacked on my various cod games becuase i didn't have to earn anything, i got it all handed to me by a nice modder. I'm not like many,many people who crave challenge. I want my games to hold my hand and lead me to a fat reward and praise for doing nothing. But apparently you can't grasp that i am different from you and i like odd things, so go fuck off.
>>15182553
No, i won't call them out becuase i like to be respectful of what other people like. I guess i'm too nice to say something like that.
Look, i like what i like, you like what you like. But don't try to force me stop liking what i like, becuase you will never succeed. So, if you like some game i don't, can i say you have bad taste or is that your personal pref- nevermind. I'm going to stick with what i belive. All the other 7.5 billion humans on this planet can tell me that i have bad taste and i still would be happy with the games i play.

On its own is pretty much the best ARPG i've played on my ps4.
I spent the most amount of time in that game too compared to all of my other console games only 240+ hours
As a MH game it fucks up on some no brainer things but it still has the basic formula down so its just as addicting as the previous games.
The people who are mad about MHW being successful can suck capcom's little nip dick.

Obviously i don't like what they are doing…look, i would call them out but personal preference is personal preference. If it's not directley harming me then by all means, do you. Just don't force me be a part of what you like. That's the whole point behind all my posts so far. It's ok if you think what i enjoy/play is not good or bad, and i'm totally fine with you voicing your opinion. I can also say i like certain things over others and if i choose to only play a select dozen or so games, let me. There is no point in telling me i can't play those games as i will still play them anyways.
But as long as we can somewhat get along, things should be ok. Sure, if somebody is doing something i really don't like i will call them out for it (kind of going back on what i said previously) but i'm not going to linger on it if they aren't really affecting me. A good example of this is that my friend really likes corn and i hate corn. Whenever he tells me he is eating corn, i tell him corn is disgusting, but i never have or will say he has bad taste, as that's just what he likes. There is a line of course where i put my foot down and tell somebody they are not right but that is reasonably rare for me to cross that point of going from "That's just what you enjoy." to "You are horrible and what you like is shit."
So yes, i have my limits on what i will tolerate, but do not force me to drop what i like and play what you like becuase you don't like what i play or enjoy. It's like telling me to stop eating hummus, i will never stop no matter how much you tell me to stop. So, i hope this post was respectful and well-worded enough to end any possible confusion or arguments about what i play, enjoy and do with my life. Have a good day/ night.

Anon, it's okay to like something that's objectively shit, as long as you're willing to acknowledge as much. I like a bunch of poorly written anime because I'm a sucker for sentimentality and people will always give me shit for it. I have a rhyme to the reason, and I accept it. It's the nature of imageboard culture.

Sorry for not replying more promptly. I didn't expect such a thorough/serious response; I appreciate you going to the trouble of telling me all that, even if it does just amount to "get a grip." I admit I wasn't entirely serious in the questions I asked you, which is probably my experience in journalism.
Don't get me wrong, though, because I do know I want something more out of my life than just being a wage slave and paying taxes until I die. We all do, but I think my latent autism and misanthropy have made me less happy with the prospects of devoting all my time and energy to a woman and children.
I suppose my main problem is not knowing whether or not I'd ever see anything meaningful from devoting all that time and effort to writing and creating. I know you've been doing it for your own sake (and I definitely need to work on that), but being a published novelist is a very different process from running a webcomic. I'd have to self-publish through Amazon or some other vanity press unless someone at a real publisher loved the book, which is extremely unlikely given how gynocentric the industry is in North America.
Again, I'm not meaning to sound self-pitying, but that really worries me, you know? I like writing, but I can't get over the anxiety of doing all that work to make something and having it be stillborn because distributors don't like it.
These days I'm busy enough with school, but I'll remember this thread and I'll read your comic in the meantime. Thank you, anon.

Like the other anon said, the only difference between you and the people you admire is one became good at what they do to the point that people no longer mind how bad they were in the beginning. Nothing else is going to help you get over your fear of failure besides getting your feet wet with failure. If you're certain you don't want to experience failure with whatever you're doing you have to question whether or not whatever you're doing is meant for you in the long run. Once you've considered whatever you're doing to not be worth your time anymore you have to move on and find that thing you care about enough to want to stick to it through the thick and thin.
If you really like what you're doing then you just have to keep trying and there's no other way about it. Success is only a bonus in the grand scheme of things and is not always the best judgement of merit.
