The /v/ meme refers to the culture and imagery originating from 4chan’s dedicated video games board. Known for its cynical, elitist, and often chaotic discourse, the board birthed various sub-memes, including the iconic 'v' logo character with a jagged, mischievous grin. Often used to critique the state of the gaming industry or mock 'casual' gamers, the /v/ persona represents the quintessential 'hardcore' gamer who ironically hates most modern games. Whether it's debating console wars or mourning the death of 'vidya,' the /v/ template is the ultimate tool for sharing aggressive, sarcastic, or niche gaming commentary across the internet.
