Why would you buy the exact same game 11 times?

I like how him lying in bed is just him opening the door but flipped lol

Edit: this was meant to be an independent comment, not a reply, but I guess it kind of fits in with both him and his games being a copy

Not only that, the drawing of her in the first and last panels are the same with a few changes, and the guy is the same in all three panels he is in, just with an extra arm drawn in the final one.

Lmao

My friend and I were just talking about how you need to proceed with caution with guys who play only FIFA or NBA4K. We call them male "candy crush" games.

Edit: I'm loving the updates. Add Madden and NHL to the list!

[-] andros_rex@lemmy.world 32 points 2 months ago

My ex bought FIFA/NBA every year as it came out like clock work. Set the game to the easiest possible settings, but complained about rubber banding and reset the quarter when he lost.

The one time I got him to do laundry, he threw away half of our socks. He didn’t want to find pairs. My fancy dress socks, my novelty socks - all in the trash when I get home from work.

Liking certain video games isn’t itself a red flag, it’s that mindless, video games as avoidance/wish fulfillment that’s concerning.

[-] Entropywins@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

You touch my merino wool socks we are fighting!!!

Boils my blood someone would just toss socks away like that...

Man, and I think I'm pathetic because I don't meal prep 2 weeks in advance and have my house sparkling clean and tidy all the time...

[-] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 18 points 2 months ago

The NHL games are like crack cocaine for Canadians.

[-] ObstreperousCanadian@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 months ago

Sorry, but the only sports games I play are racing games. So not all Canadians.

[-] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

Racing games is just hockey on a track following an imaginary pack on a track.

Checkmate Sth Rogen.

It's honesty pretty bleak to see companies like Electronic Arts and Activision consistently top the sales charts by releasing the same game every year.

Said this before on Reddit in the past, but there are lots of consumers who have no taste in video games whatsoever. They don't give a shit about anything but FIFA/Madden, Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto, and that is the reason why we have predatory shit like Ultimate Team and Shark Cards in $70 AAA titles.

We used to joke about people saying "I'm a gamer" when they meant Farmville, but if you just have each year's FIFA and CoD games then you're just as bad.

I talked to someone working at a game store (gamemania in the Netherlands). The stores also buy and sell second hand games. I commented on the amount of fifa games on the shelves and they told me the storage in the back just has massive stacks of every fifa game of the last 10 years or so. Apparently they will literally buy every functioning game you want to sell them.

The chain is also close to bankruptcy, probably not related. But it's a shame because I really do like walking through them and looking through the games they have. They actually have xbox360, wii and ps3 games on shelves.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 17 points 2 months ago

The UK's largest game store was just called Game, and these days you're lucky if they've got actual games in stock. It's mostly funko pops and other game related tat. The stores mostly seem located in the back of sports shops.

Physical games are in big trouble.

If he at least ALSO had some other, non-sports games, then she might have let it slide. But only FIFA is a definite red flag.

Why is she removing pants in panel 2 that she isn't wearing in panel 1?

[-] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 2 months ago
[-] Wolf314159@startrek.website 11 points 2 months ago

This is like a Far Side comic in that I'm sure it's actually funny, but I have no idea why.

[-] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 2 months ago

It's a Thai political reference. The guy in the middle picture is Suthep Thaugsuban, a Thai politician who lead anti-government protests and attempted to unseat their government in 2013. It's not in the linked article, but whistles were a major symbol of the protests.

@SSJMarx@lemm.ee tagging you in case you're interested.
