Re: Can't have fun playing games anymore, everything becomes competitive.
zombie post incoming... competition is the premise of multiplayer gaming, and it doesn't really give much room for casual gamers. so i am not totally surprised if playing online games is stressful\repulsive for some people. i am more of a self determinist\perfectionist than a competitor, but it always annoys me when I come… -
