Would you stop playing video games forever for $500K ?

[XSGames]

Would you? 🤔

[AlmightyDunkle]

More time to devote myself to running TTRPG's! Seems like a good compromise!

halve a mil?
yes.

You conditions did not lock me out of other forms of etertainment like movies books puzzlemagazines, boardgames...

and with 500k I can afford a harp and lessons and a english yewbow and lessons..

and still have enough for a house and anothermaster degree.

I like games but Halve a mil opens doors to things Id like more.

[Icosa!]

probably

Absolutely!

I already kind of did. I hate modern media, especially American stuff. I already stopped listening to modern music and watching modern movies and TV shows. And I think the only game Ive played that's post 2016 is Doom Eternal.

But if you asked me to stop playing video games that are pre-2015 no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way in hell.

Tldr version: "new bad, old good"

Adapt or perish.

"I already stopped listening to modern movies and music" is always a hilarious take, just admit you barely try to find things you enjoy and only look on the surface level of what's considered popular. There is a plethora of incredible media and music in our current age; you're too far up your own rear end however that you refuse to look for it.

it's more convenient to access old quality because of survivorship bias: everything low-quality is filtered by being forgotten so only the gems remain

you have to swim through the filth to find anything of worth in modern media

Survivorship bias is a good point, every 'age' will have terrible music/movies/games and such.

Swimming through the filth gets easier the more you swim. And finding a gem leads to another!

What safeguards are in place to actually stop me playing games once I take the $500k?

Booting up a game causes immediate testicular torsion.

They can take your computer and consoles and phone and give you one computer and phone that cannot run any games 🤷‍♀️

And that is only the less invasive option 🤔

[Grendalcat]

Is that before or after taxes?
