    Haha how weird and quirky! A game from 2013? No one’s ever played those before! You must be so special and unique! But not as special and unique as me, playing games from the 80s! Oh wait. There’s nothing special and unique about any of this.

        Encouraging people to be themselves and not determine their worth based on the age of the games they play? Yes. People are more than this. It’s sad as hell to put yourself down just because the game is old.

            They’re presenting themselves as something “different” from other gamers… How is that not presenting yourself as unique and special? It gives “I’m not like other girls” energy.

              Last I checked the meme is saying the accomplishments are less impressive than they may seem at first, and I’m not seeing “Im not as impressive as I first look” as being “special”.

                “Im not as impressive as I first look”

                It’s not impressive either way, so why are they bringing status into it whatsoever? Older games are not “less impressive” to play, and that mindset should not exist in the first place.

              You’re the only one here interpreting this that way. Like I can’t tell if you’re an actual human or if you’re a bot powered by ChatGPT that didn’t correctly process the content of the image.

      They probably posted it here specifically because they knew people would find it relatable, actually.

      I think it was more about the getting goals done in a game instead of real life, and the 10 years was tacked on because some people do like to keep up on the newer games.
