At least San Andreas is objectively great.
I legit cant understand how Fortnite is still a thing. Or Roblox for that matter.

They were in the right place at the right time.
Ironically, despite Fortnite being plenty successful just by ripping off Battle Royale games, Tim Sweeney is really jealous of Roblox because it was more popular than Fortnite during COVID lockdowns.
He's since tried to chase the success of it by overhauling Fortnite with non-violent game modes for younger and casual players; no one really cares and the typical shooter modes remain the most popular by a wide margin.

For more on how that's going: Fortnite Festival, the rhythm game mode, and Lego Fortnite, a Minecraft clone, each had their own battle pass equivalents you could only progress by playing their respective modes.
Very few people finished these compared to the normal battle pass, so they've made playing other modes like Battle Royale also count towards them, in the hopes you'll want to buy the music and Lego crap passes after finishing them without trying.
They also reduced the price of the music pass, and they're soon going to sell a bundle of all three passes. They're trying pretty hard to justify the continued existence of these non-shooter modes.
They just essentially killed Rocket Racing, the racing mode, by announcing it would no longer receive large-scale themed updates like all the other official modes do. It's a waiting game to see if other modes are similarly written off.

It seems increasingly that our culture venerates violent criminals, especially in video-games. The most popular entertainment property of all time (GTAV) is the story of 3 bank robbers who kill and steal all over southern california.

Violent criminals being venerated isn't new. 90 years ago, Bonnie & Clyde were the biggest celebrities in America.
 
Okay
I'm sorry
This is the best videogame character design, and I refuse to use any other skin.

Malcolm X, wasn't he Wewuz?

Damn niggers, you are hotep all ghe way down and we haven't gotten a single rap musical about Yakub yet. I am dissapointed in you.

malcom x was killed because he questioned the validity of farrakan's leadership after gaining a significant following and was basically on the road to making hotep shit a palatble thing to regular people. which might seem crazy but you gotta remember the crazy people won the hotep war. the five percent nation essentially did create a palatable version of the NOI belief system that in the vacuum of his death, but they're a fringe movement that would have stayed completely unknown to anybody if it wasn't for the wu tang clan. anyways the pan-african nigger esoterica that farrakhan was able to channel after killing malcom x really doesn't have anything to do with yakub and i dont think any of the modern hoteps really even give a shit about the yakub narrative, but it was foundational to the start of their entire movement so they still have to play lip service to it. they will only admit that is their beliefs when they're pressed on it because they know its retarded.

this whole enchilada is more or less the precursor to the religious belief management parts of the mkultra program. the founder, wallace muhammed, was very likely a federal agent which is why he had fabricated documentation and their investigation into him went nowhere. the feds were feeding bullshit beliefs to poor black in the hopes of creating a new nonsense folk religion to make them easier to control. (this is contemporary with them giving a bunch of black people syphilis just to see what happened so i dont think they had moral qualms with doing that) it obviously worked, which is why they were so easily taken advantage of by farrakhan and the nation of islam

I only know him as the weed man but adding extra context for people who do not know, the 'dogg' form is based off his old album art

I have no idea if he uses the 'dogg' form anymore though. It was funny seeing the covers on stores, art wise.
Don't know what the doberman form is based off of. Probably an original for Fortnite.

Juice Wrld; who will serve as the final weeks rapper of choice. He will also be a free skin given to you for playing the game either on the Nov 30th or Dec 1st. He OD'd about 3 or 4 years ago when the police performed a raid on his property and he decided to eat all his drugs. He was a Meta joke surrounding the original Season 2 way back when, so I kinda get it. But I'll legit have a dead nigger in my locker storage.

I thought he died of a seizure on the way to a plane

There is nothing wrong with video games as a hobby. Problem is that to zoomers, fortnite and other always online skinner box simulators are all that games can be. Add something like FNAF or Minecraft, GTA5 and maybe whatever their favorite streamer plays and that's their entire world. Back in the day, games were not only more meaningful and required more thought and input from the player, but they were also a gateway to other hobbies or communities. For example being big into RPGs could lead to you being more interested in classic tabletop roleplaying, and from there meeting more people to interact with IRL. I knew a guy who played a lot of racing games as a kid and that got him interested in sports cars later on in life. You just don't see that anymore these days, getting on a discord where you get groomed by some pedophile is about the whole extent these kids who are always glued to their phones or tablets will ever get from their games.

You use anecdotal evidence as opposed to how it can hijack your dopamine centers and makes learning other things more difficult since it's not as stimulating.

I grew up with games and I now consider them as a full "hobby" as a joke. Idk I'm very into self improvement not only for my sake but my kids and future grand kids. Learning all the heart locations in ocarina of time doesn't translate itself as a useful life skill no matter how you slice it.

Like what you like but two things, please use paragraph spacing and secondly you can't convince me otherwise and I mean that respectfully. I do lifting/my job field and games just are potato chips of things to do and I still play games, don't get it wrong. I just believe kids should learn long style life skills over wasting valuable time early on.

Cool story bro, nobody cares. Good for you that you've clearly better things to do with your free time, my post is still relevant. Better them playing video games than wasting their time on twitter or tik tok.

"Nobody cares" then fuck off and don't send me a shit stain paragraph and be rude as fuck. You can't even address how I'd rather kids learn practical shit and you are retarded enough to whip out tik tok. Same fucking thing.

As a minority Latinx who went to a public school, you were drilled by kids and students to NEVER do this as this was how you get your ass beat or even shot.

Look forward to 10 year old White boys doing this in broad daylight

this is how you look telling children not to do a dance associated with gangsters from the 70's as if that holds any relevance today asides from now being associated with fortnight

Oh, they'll be killed off pretty quick I think. That being said, it's sad that by far the best guitarhero style game we've gotten in years is a fucking alternate mode in Fortnite lmao

That's called "melbourne shuffle", also popular in hardstyle and hardbass raves. Don't fall for the kike psyops trying to make niggers look like they "have a culture".

Largely I don't think kids who have parents that love them should be exposed to video games to begin with. It largely hijacks their ability to build themselves up at a key point development wise for a dead end addiction.

Would you rather your kid be able to be productive and have kids someday or be able to impress people in a video game by being OG/sperging out like you'd see in CoD? I do play games myself yet I also do a full time job and lift weights so balance is more achievable after a point

The various addictions and maladaptive social practices that have come from people letting Ipads parent their kids is a symptom of a larger problem of atomization and managerialism, not the direct consequence of video games. You can get your kids interested in exercising or outdoor activities or church life or whatever have you but they will burn out on those things if they become chores (and if those things are their only downtime they will become chores) and don't carry weight outside of their respective spaces. Sure, not staying up all night every night playing generic shooter #umpteenth is probably going to help, but having a full time job and regularly exercising isn't how you achieve a fulfilling life, they're something that was considered part and parcel of one two generations ago.

Nowhere as much as it was in the 90s but still so.

Even back in the 90s they were just a bunch of irrelevant hoods inflated by news networks that needed some shit to fill airtime so they made it look like SERIOUS BUSINESS when in reality it was the literal bottom of the black demo still acting like 10yo retards at 30, plus guns. Unless you lived in the hood then you would never see these idiots. Kids at my school would do the blood sign as a joke all the time, there was zero respect towards these dumb ass gangstas, even the black kids thought they were losers but then again these kids were all middle class, getting an education like the rest of us and this was before the current year glorification of the worst of the worst of black culture. Now if you're black and not debasing yourself to "act black" you're an oreo and doing this gay-ass nigga dance is disrespectful.......towards gay-ass niggas who are low-life criminals and deserve nothing.

Didn't say that's all I have, I just don't prefer littering every part of my personal life. I do train my son in strength and mobility training. He's into building and I try to be consistent with my beliefs with him.

Nor was I saying that was the case. My point is that those things don't really do much to build someone up or bring fulfillment if they're done in the vacuum most people live in, they just become another form of escapism.
