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".

How does the game being old make the accomplisments less impressive though?

I'll admit the age part isn't really necessary on it, I was just explaining how I was seeing it, if I had made the meme it wouldn't have been there.

My point exactly.

“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.
