What was that one game you thought "y'know what? i think im gonna go pro. This is going to be my game. I can feel it!"?
You put in all the hours. Tried to get all the 'tech', min-maxing and gimmicky control movements/glitches down to try and compete with the autistic zoomers whos adderal fuelled fuege states completely destroyed you and killed your drive and sense of self worth.
Which game was it? and do you feel worse when people like DSP do well in them where you failed?
Or did you try to become a streamer at a certain game and never broke double digit viewers?[/spoilers]
Let it all out. Its okay, pap-paps here for you my sweet chillen.
WoW until WoD shat on every little thing I enjoyed about it. Never wanted anything out of it besides the gameplay and those moments of glory when I execute everything I learned correctly. I'd spend weeks mastering 1v1 fights, throwing myself into 1v2, 1v3, & 1v4+ situations in order to develop an uncanny intuition. Moreover I did that process for years since vanilla. I'm pretty sure I was the best arms warrior in that game at multiple points of time. Losing was way more fun than winning. I loved overcoming those problems I'd run into.
CS I just realized I didn't have any fun anymore so I stopped, seeing is it is un fun I can just do other things that are rewarding and fun. Like masturbation

Meanwhile Franz is still Fromsofts go to gaijin, loves streaming and talking about tea and shooting the shit with plague of gripes or pat and woolie.
Punished Marcus is the new Spoony.
Joseph Myers
Damn at one point I really envied this guy and thought he had it made. I was even telling my friends and family about his story.
David Clark
I used to like ENB but grew to hate him. The last time I opened some random twitch vod from him I recall closing it up instantly the second I heard him say something about how "adult virgins" hated the new all female ghostbusters
Austin Wilson
Turns out when the mask slips and they aren't behind the youtube editing wall lots of people turn out to be trash.
But at least Minh and Reggie grow increasingly more based as Woolies new Matt and Liam.
Ryder Bailey
I thought the daughter is still with him?
Cameron Russell
Sure you aren't thinking of Gaijinhunter after his wife left him for the woman she made him live in his 'cuckboard' with and dumped the hapa daughter on him?
Jack Garcia
no his alimony is with her
Aiden Morales
Anyone else noticed all those little turds with (insert name) gaming as their username on youtube? Seeing these faggots make me laugh because they are basically dragging the corpse of their flopped gaming channel around.
Wyatt Hernandez
First I thought I was, but I am pretty sure ENB is still with his daughter, too
Ayden Johnson
Man, this souls drought has been crazy. I used to eat up any video Vaati puts out but with no new lore and no date for a new game on the horizon I seriously don't give a shit about "70 facts that were scrapped in videos before". It just fell apart for me when it took him a month to get a Sekiro lore video out. I played the shit out of Sekiro but I'm not playing it a month after release. I'm thinking I'll unsubscribe from him and I'm starting to wonder if I'm seeing a similar situation to ENB play out. Hearing him plug his new merch in the same sentence he announced he just had a child felt pretty scummy.
o-one day my meme run of slender with facecam will get discovered and markiplier and pewds will be my best friends!
Levi Morris
Yet nobody fucking remembers him, while Vaati still makes content
Grayson Myers
>Steal theories off /vg/ and fextralife >Look through folder of stock footage you have of ingame characters walking slowly >Get your favourite royalty free sad piano music >Add some bass and revert to audacity >go full on georgio tsuokolos tier "but....perhaps..." none committal asspulling in a sad breathy voice.
You are now Vaati. Congraturations, you have proved the justice of our culture.

i almost matched the old world record for classic spelunky.
Joshua Wright
League of legends. I was as 'pro' as someone could get without living in california in the early 2010s. I was plat in s1, s2, diamond in s3, but I gave up. It simply wasn't feasible to keep playing 10+ hours a day when I wasn't getting anything out of it. The first couple years were fun because I played in the collegiate league and even made some money, but nothing more than a couple months rent which helped.
It started turning franchised and became impossible to set anything up so most people here just stopped playing, so I did too. I was also no longer as good as used to be since I hit 25 and started going downhill.
Zachary Butler
Yeah, I was pretty lazy about looking at lore back in the day. I put a lot more effort into combing the Megami Tensei wiki now.
Also >fextralife Man the way they put a twitch stream in the corner of every page they have to bump up their numbers is scummy. Twitch really doesn't give a shit do they.
Leo Hall
Be honest with me, as a league player did you also develop an anger problem?
Jackson Edwards
Twitch gets money from it since every potential new viewer is an ad roll.
Grayson Garcia
Still not as bad as the shit that went down over at Insane Difficulty before the owners breakdown.
Ryan Jackson
No, I was never an angry type and I think that's why I performed so well. I had an angry guy on my team in college and he was either the best or the worst player in the match, never just in the middle. That inconsistency was the reason we lost many matches. Now, that's not to say I didn't get frustrated, but I never raged or broke anything or screamed at people. Just not the type of person I am in relation to video games. I saw a dude get stabbed and shot over a local fgc thing and that spooked me out of that community, and taught me to control myself.
Kevin Rodriguez
I stopped cause I could be spending that time playing other games or getting better at other skills. And then I played other games and got better at other skills and I feel better about than having a high ranking in street fighter v or whatever I was playing.
Matthew Russell
that's what i thought too, his ex had the aborition and he found out about it so didn't he get his first child placed with him and she was free to go back to japan?
Connor Thompson
Pretty sure it was like that, at least this is how I understood it
Carson Diaz
FGC are second only to yugioh players in games ending in violence.
James Wilson
Who would willingly leave their child behind in Skookum Missuraah or wherever where she would always be treated like a parasite?
