I think I found out how to be able to play modern stuff

[Xdqwerty Xdqwerty]

Since i'm a gamer I want to play the new stuff that people talk about, but unlike the rest of the internet i'm not a millionaire, and I have thought about it and found out that in order to be able to get modern hardware, I shouldnt get a job bc im too young and lazy, but rather i'd either die and reincarnate as someone rich, rob a bank, or even steal the hardware from the mall!!!
And yes, I know one of these involves death two out of three of these things are illegal, but still

Most of us are so below the poverty line, we are off the graph:

Considering how expensive hardware is now, you can see if you can find someone selling an older gaming PC or a used console on Facebook Marketplace. If you choose to go that route, just make sure you get pictures of the machine turning on properly and showing a picture on their monitor/TV. Also, make sure to meet at a public place like a coffee shop to be safe.

You can try eBay as well for consoles, though you'll more likely to find better deals on last gen hardware like the Switch or PS4. Thankfully games were still being released on PS4 and Switch until recently, so you'll more likely to be able to find those titles for cheaper.

I don't have money either, but that's no excuse for not being happy.I am poor, but I have money to buy modern games. But what's important is family.

Why bother with the modern stuff when a lot of it is just ideologically-charged ass?

There's quite literally decades worth of gaming archived between The Repo & Vimm's Vault..

what are you after exactly? want to play Latest games but no money? I can suggest watching gameplay walkthroughs, i've seen a few VR ones myself

 

[x_lodx_lod's icon]

O que você procura exatamente? Quer jogar os jogos mais recentes, mas não tem dinheiro? Posso sugerir que você assista a vídeos de gameplay.

I also watch gameplay videos and I have a lot of fun making theories.

 

[Dr.Kisaragi Dr.Kisaragi]

Sometimes I do wish to play modern rpgs like trails of cold steel 4 and Reverie or like Ys9 or 10

But my hunger of other console and retro still big some umm maybe in future decade where I can finally play.

Tell it to him.

Às vezes, tenho vontade de jogar RPGs modernos como Trails of Cold Steel 4 e Reverie, ou como Ys 9 ou 10.

Mas minha vontade de jogar outros consoles e jogos retrô ainda é grande, talvez em uma década futura, quando eu finalmente puder jogar.

You know, doctor, I agree with you. I've discovered so many games that I'm playing that next week I'm going to play on Comodoro 64.

Be careful, you may reincarnate in a isekai (?

Another good idea is to buy Laptops or tablets to take the installed components from them

Watching videos ≠ playing games

Sometimes you have to stick to what do you have until you finally get access to that thing you want for.

True I mean look at Sega Saturn, Master or like Pc Engine or Wonderswan
Psp snd Ds was a ton of hidden gem library

And of course the Pc World Ms-Dos Pc98 the 2000s pc that alone will give us a lifetime

Ps1 ps2 and ps3 alone have a baffet of good games for a long time

Remember just enjoy playing games no pressure of what generation are you playing as long you enjoy it that what matters.

Às vezes, você precisa se contentar com o que tem até finalmente conseguir acesso àquilo que deseja.

You're right.

I can suggest modding some old games you may have to make them feel like new releases. You know, like total conversion mods and the like

 

[x_lodx_lod's icon]

Posso sugerir que você modifique alguns jogos antigos que você tenha para que pareçam lançamentos recentes. Sabe, mods de conversão total e coisas do tipo.

I agree with you. There are several mods that make games realistic.

Mods obviously don't count
