Plagued Consoomers / Consoomer Culture - Because if it has a recogniseable brand on it, I’d buy it!

What was their point? Everything run Doom.
At this rate, I'd call that whole collection gluttony; as somebody with a game collection of my own, I can never understand what people get from having massive game collections if they won't even play many of those games at least once! Same thing can be said Steam libraries and game hoarders.
Many games on the Switch are either shovelware or remakes of older Nintendo games (especially from the Wii U era) marked up.

Ever since Palworld, I've noticed this trend of consoomers seeing a successful rival product (or even a perceived rival), and then running to tell on them to billion dollar corporation's legal team.
There was Palworld, obviously.
There was that guy pretending to be a Nintendo lawyer to get a bunch of Garry's mod content removed.
And today I saw someone hoping Bungie sues The First Descendant for the crime of having ability icons that look kind of similar, citing this tweet.

that tweet is a shit example, hes showing the similarities and getting in response "yeah we did copy someone eles work"
i dont know what either of those things are but it does look copied to me and that just seems uncreative and stupid and worth pointing out if you care about the topic at hand
this thread went from discussing consumerism, to gay ironyposting "why even care about anything bro? why demand any level of quality from anything ever? just accept poo, just take it on the chin" whats next, dont criticize a brand just consume their product?

Yes, but that's what I saw Destiny randoms citing as the smoking gun to cry and hoping Destiny/Bungie legal shuts down the game.
They are the icons to show various buffs and abilities.
The problem is such icons are fairly generic and there are even stock ones online.

The hand with something coming out it icon is practically a gaming staple.
Here is one from bioshock.
And it even has three bolts coming out of it like one of the examples in the post. Someone call up Ken Levine so he can sue Bungie for copyright.

This thread's posts are striking and often horrifying because they convey terror about how imbalanced your life can become if you pour it all into one thing, but compunded by growing inequality and cost disease. A house went costing a thousand times as much as a bit of plastic junk to ten or fifty thousand times so your acquisitiveness and neglect can become just that much more visible.

>i dont know why people get so mad and jealous over someones game collection
First of all, who would be jealous of this? Half of this is probably shovelware meant for 6 year olds. And while gaming is a decent enough hobby, even an avid player could only play 1/10th of this properly at most, so yeah people are justified in being critical of buying a pile of plastic just to let it rot in a shelf. Hope the modern slaves mining the metals for the tech was worth it.
It's like the male version of a shein haul, or the cringy geek version of collecting cars you never drive and rot in a garage.
Being a chronic gamer is not a great hobby, but still miles better than consooming for the sake of consooming. Like really, what even is the fun in just looking up products online and then buying them, already knowing you're not actually going to use it? This shit isnt even vintage/retro yet and it doesn't look appealing either.
At least some nerds do cool stuff like leaning blacksmithing or making mead.

Maybe this belongs more under gaming or sports, but this thread came to mind after seeing this headline:

People who buy the newest sports game (Fifa, Madden, NBA 2K, etc.) are consoomers , the games are nearly identical to the previous year with an updated roster with the gambling addiction that comes with opening packs for the online function (ultimate team). As well the games have no resell valve so you are losing money if you buy it brand new.

Most of the people who only play sportsball games have brown skin and a low IQ so I don't think they exactly care about stuff like 'fun' in games or even resell value lol
They usually play these games on the latest game console as a status symbol because to them a $500 PS5 bought with fentanyl money is like having a Rolls Royce
