Perhaps only play multiplayer with friends rather than strangers? that can create a better environment for fun competition. People can be really annoyingly good at online games if they sink enough hours in and and as I get older I have less and less time so I just cant compete in battlefield or call of duty etc. So…
I have been struggling a lot the past months to just sit down and enjoy a game (mainly multiplayer games). I am that type of guy that wants to be better than everyone, i hate loosing and when i can't do what i expected of myself i get really angry and it ruins the experience. Now that i think about it, i have always been…
Have you considered not being a noob? :( Joke. I feel ya, it's one of the reasons I quit playing MOBAs a while back. I would never be quite good enough, and frustration spoiled the fun. Plus you have massive abuse in every single game from Russian kids and I wasn't gonna keep doing that to myself. Honestly, just step away.…
There are always going to be people in the world who are better at something than you. That doesn't mean you suck. I don't play competitive online games anymore for much the same reasons that were already mentioned, but when I did I was usually content to get a couple frags and have some fun. Getting a nice railgun hit or…
I used to play games competitively and I would have anger issues occasionally, Question why you want to be the best player and how to get there. One you know that set goals to achieve it. Your reward is when you have finished training for the day and you can feel good about it, There is not much fun involved on a case by…
I would use that competitive streak and refocus it on your art. :p There are artists right now who are practicing their art. They are taking extra online courses in their free time to expand their skills. They are going over all of those seemingly boring but oh so important art fundamentals, again and again. What are you…
I can't relate to not being able to enjoy video games because "I can't win" or whatever, in fact I'm the opposite, I didn't win in the best games of Apex Legends I had, I just felt like I was the most supportive, getting the most revives/respawns and generally supporting others. The most cringe Apex game I played was one…
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…
Youre the killer archetype player clearly. You play for dominance mainly and winning over other people and can't handle losing. Its a very common playertype. (Killer, Achiever, Socializer, Explorer, Trader) Most people are a mix of multiple types. The die hard killer archetypes care only about winning over others and…
shrike i think your archetype theory is pretty flawed. i can think of reasons to play that doesnt fit any of those, and they have poor names aswell. for example whats the difference between the killer and the achiever? surely the killer wants to ACHIEVE victory over other players? also did you just make this up? "Attitude…
