When I was 10, I would have given a finger and all my valuables to have Final Fantasy VII in "HD"
Now that I am 31, and have about $70k in savings, you couldn't pay me to play that abortion.
Why is time so cruel, lads?

I have 1/4 of that money in savings but I live in a third world shithole where the salary is probably also 1/4 of what we get for doing the same job so I don't feel that bad.
I only have 1% of that money but I live in one of the most expensive countries, in its most expensive and crowded region.
Still feeling good, no fear of being poor, I eat well and live nice and just got a 144hz monitor.
I got a 144hz monitor, but I'm still feeling poor.
>I eat well and live nice
I'm not American, I can live like a free person with a small salary. No debt at all, even though I have only 700€ on my account I literally have more money than most Americans.
That monitor is way too dark.
>why is time so cruel?
It changes. You refused to move on and while you pity the younger gen you are also jealous of them enjoying the low quality stuff. They have it worse, much worse, but they don't know that, they never will. You are also bitter because you are aware how bad the things are now, and remember that your younger self had a lot better vision of the future. The thing is you are not alone with this, the bad stuff is, that this is not your country anymore. You wanted flying cars, and you get a good reminder why can't you have that either the very moment you look at an article about video games.
>You refused to move on
projection?
I have a job and a wife, I barely play videogames anymore.
If anything the OP posts is saying I moved on
Shame since it's surprisingly good.
I'm 29 but I've only got 10k in savings not counting the 401k and HSA. But I'm saving for a house so that'll disappear real soon. I'm worried that when the time comes I won't be able to bear clearing it out
then why did you make this tread?
to express my sadness at the monkey paw
I wish I had 7k in savings.
If you truly had moved on, you wouldn't care and thus wouldn't have made this thread.
remember that whores and psychologist both charge by the hour
What is this place
podshares in California
a bed is 1200$ a month
it aint cruel, your just a cunt
>a bed is 1200$ a month
Sounds like hell. What motivates people to live in these conditions rather than move to somewhere where the prices are less ridiculous? Pride?
>rather than move to somewhere where the prices are less ridiculous?
california transport/roads are ridicolously bad
you would need 3 hours to get to and to leave the silicon valley
basically you'd be out from 5 am to 22 (10pm)
Damn. It sounds exactly like the corporate wage slaves that lived in company megacomplexes in Shadowrun. Except it's IRL.
situation is so bad that Elon Musk proposed an undeground vacuum train going at 500 mph and californians thought it'd be doable and a great solution
user, I understand what you are trying to do here. Your life sucks dicks more than your highschool sweethart in the back alley for 1oz of coke. You are not alone with this, you are not unique. You come to the seal clubbing organization for a virtual headpats. I get it, but the problem is you start to rub it under other's nose how much better do you have it than others while trying to get pity points. There is a high chance you are larping too, but just stop this ok. You already made a piece of shit out of yourself, but it's ok, a lot of other anons do this same exact shit all the time, you are not the first.
At this point it's better to copypaste this post I typed and don't forget to select a good wojak with glasses. Maybe you can salvage yourself with it, but at the end you'll still be a pathetic piece of shit. I should have posted a smug anime girl with this, but you don't deserve that.
>plug in my dusty ps1
>mfw the controllers are not working
it's not fair bros.. i just wanted to play Crash bandicoot again
nigga just unscrew the shell and wipe the button contacts with a cotton swab soaked in isopropyl alcohol. there's a 95% chance that it's just dirty inside
I'm 36 and the same as you.
FFVII was so formative to me that I ended up learning Japanese.
But I enjoyed the remake.
Nothing can stay the same forever.
You're not impressed by the charlatan that can play the Pirates of the Caribbean theme out of tempo on the street anymore. The game being familiar isn't enough.
Personally I'm tired of Japanese games now in general and anime. No more high school teens with magic, acquiring power armor or the 7th sequel/remake using game play from the 90s, whilst browsing through half a dozen menus to use an item with sentai ranger movement gestures and autistic dialogue.
Same but I'm 33. I loved the remake, played the OG FF7 when I was a kid.
>WC3
>not WC2
