how do people keep playing video games when they know they suck and arent going to get better

[wollet2]

thankfully my genetics allowed me to be very competent player in league of legends

i dont even know what im doing and get d1 elo even with neuronal disease (used to be masters)

jfl at LS fanboys

 

[hebbewem]

They genrally get better

 

[Kroker]

Either they don't give a fuck and just play for fun or you can simply just find a another game that's all... I saw players on 1k level in LoL who play only normals and there is no keyboard player who plays Heimirdinger with 15M mastery points.

Tl:dr, Fuck LoL.

 

[wollet2]

They genrally get better

players got a bit better through time (mostly developing habbits and better macro) and some mechanics through constant spamming games but everyone did so it doesnt matter

yup their salvation is that they have a life outside the game. so they dont really care. but for no lifers that can only cope through video games like me it must be depressing. i still feel the genetic limits in my gameplay that dont allow me to go pro

True apart from going Pro, you can stream.

Rank 1 NA (GeneraSn1per) gets 1k per stream while Tyler1 ranging from 25/30/45k viewers, its your character/reactions really plays a huge role in your success.

How do people keep on living, working, socializing, etc. when they know their lives are shit and they ain't getting any better?

I'm playing U4 rn is it any good
And because most people have nothing to do lol

being d1 or silver 1 or master 250LP there is no diff
you wont get money, you wont get girls in 99% of situations, you wont get status in 99% of situations

real life is more complex than a video game, harder to persuade someone that its "over" for him etc

plus some of life is enjoyable even if youre not good at it, people got things to live for in most cases

its an obvious ego boost supposed to make you feel good as many things in life? high elo in video games is one of the best demonstrations of high brain power that exists

its just a quality ownership, who will value it is another thing

yes its an ego boost/validation/dopamine for your brain. I know what you are talking about since I peaked masters aswell. but its not a sustained dopamine boost, you are not actually learning any new skills, you do not have anything to show for it. If you play 100 games per season and get masters thats totally fine, but most ppl including me wasted wayy too much time on that game and started to equate their self worth with their elo. and "high elo in vdeo games is one of the best demonstrations of high brain power" is such a ridiculous thing to say. the main difference between good and bad players is the amount of time invested. bad players who play less can be just as smart as you but may choose to invest their time into something that actually yields benefits longterm, like getting well-paying job, physical fitness or social relations

not trying to attack your lifestyle (I dont even know it) but holding videogame elo in high regard is something that is mostly done by people that are invested heavily in them(like Iwas), once I quit and looked upon it as an outsider its obvious to me how ridiculous it is

it wears down with time like all good things especially if the rest of your life is shit. its just a good thing/cope to have depending on the person too

"you are not actually learning any new skills, you do not have anything to show for it."
but you already know a skill that 99.9% of playerbase of the most famous vg in the planet cant replicate. you have your rank and gameplay to show for it? most people cant replicate you in the slightest if youre actually high elo.

" and "high elo in vdeo games is one of the best demonstrations of high brain power" is such a ridiculous thing to say."
writing books, verbal mogging, speaking fast and smart, even excelling in stem (requires tons of knowledge which can make you think you can do it too, when a video game has no prerequisites and no learning) is not as a definite direct demonstration of high brain power as seeing chovy vod. i will never feel as mentally inferior seeing faggot ben shapiro talking vs seeing chinese rank 1 league vod. DIRECT GENETIC BRAIN POWER DEMONSTRATION AT ITS BEST TBH

" the main difference between good and bad players is the amount of time invested."
big no

bro with inceldom rising there are tons of permavirgins grinding 2k games a season and are stick stuck as piss. and there are players who play almost none and get high elo. beautiful high brain power demonstration

and im not saying i prefer high elo in videogame to real life girls and slaying. my life is finished and im forced to stay inside and play video games. i wish i had a real life and i was healthy, ideally id like to be good at the game too which is a side ego boost of high brain power

I agree, its a good cope. Like all copes it wont improve your life though.

Yes, you have your rank and your gameplay. You can impress people that play the game with those. Everybody else will look at you confused and pity you though. Dont overestimate the amount of people that play games/league. On the internet it may seem high, but reallife is different.

Yeah I disagree. 90% of league players dont even know all abilities/champions because they dont invest enough time. 90% of the 2k games stuck pisslow players have no actual motivation to improve, id argue that around half could actually improve if they bothered. (for example, lots of stucks play 3 different roles, change champion all the time etc. and other habits that prevent getting more game knowledge).
"when a video game has no prerequisites and no learning" ???? you need to know the abilities of like 100 meta champs to actually be able to play the game LMFAO. need to learn how to press buttons correctly (quite hard for casuals) and need tons of game knowledge to know kill thresholds and laning phases. (even a smart player will lose a matchup if he plays it for the first time). On the other hand chess, iq tests and writing require much less prerequisites.

you say big no, but its a statistical fact.

yes I wanted to have both for a while too. But I am too competitive/addictive personality. And therefore I am not compatible with that lifestyle. You are probably just defending league as "demonstration of high brainpower" because you think you will never achieve anything else, so you are invested hard in your cope. But I am sure if you stopped the "my life is finished" mentality you could be good in other areas of life too, you just have to try

it wont improve your life, its just a fun activity to grind and seeing you being better than most people and having the delusion in your brain that you can get better (99% of players even me at times have this and its not true). playing video games is just fun and being good at it is part of the fun. people waste their time and play vg fair

yup you wont impress everyone even the people that you will impress that play the game wont care after a while. its just self gratification knowing that youre good, its as much of a cope as excelling in academia (without the money part).
also brick skulled 8x6 ogre antivaxxer chad that hits his gf would prolly not excell in math neither reach challenger in league of legends, yet he doesnt even participate in the 2. top ranks in almost all high skill ceiling video games like dota2, csgo and league are definitely high brain power. and with a fun and direct / that leaves no doubts demonstration

i dont know the abilities of all champios and legit none of the cringe champs released the past 3 years. i just know through playing against them that lux has a cc and aoe damage slow and a shield etc. i dont even know what champs like viego, zoe, akshan do
im an adc jinx,draven,twitch player and got masters w 150 games last year. currently d3 got banned on d1 acc

how is it a statistical fact? i agree that a lot of the lower ranked players could possibly get a higher rank with enough motivation and playing more serious/grinding but i guarantee you that a 3 years 200games/year platinum player will never ever in his life even reach d2+. thats significant and genetic difference. there must be a more time spend-better rank correlaction but i bet you its very capped. you cant teach a 5 clicks per second player to click 8 clicks per second and be accurate in those and have good reaction times

"You are probably just defending league as "demonstration of high brainpower" because you think you will never achieve anything else, so you are invested hard in your cope. But I am sure if you stopped the "my life is finished" mentality you could be good in other areas of life too, you just have to try"

bro i legit have a disease and my life is finished, i just stay in and spam league on autopilot and wait til i die. its definitely a demonstration of high brainpower tho, atleast very high elo. like a said a fun one that leaves no doubts. if youre not delusional you see challenger chinese vod and simply cant see urself ever doing the same things they do.

academia is a superior cope because you get money and at least some respect, also feeling that you are becoming smarter is much more fulfilling. (for example when I played tons of league I was decent in school but nothing special, just passed. Now that I have more time to invest in studies I am the best in my class. that doesnt mean that I am genetically superior, it simply shows that I am ready to invest time/have more time to invest than others. time theory proven once again)
ofc the brain matters, but there are tons of other factor at play too. f.e. there are no female pros not just because they have lower iq, but also because they have less drive and less time.
you can prob manage on botlane cause in worst case you just farm and play teamfights well, mid/top you have to know matchup 100% or you get fucked, the stucks I mention get solod lvl 1 vs trundle, olaf, darius, gwen, fiora because they dont know the champ and after game they forget about it

saying that time is the biggest factor does not mean that it applies to every single player. it simply means that it has the highest correlation overall. the majority of players are unranked. the majority of ranked players just play till they get gold then spam normals because they simply dont care.

what disease? autism? ofc chinese challengers have innate talent and get groomed from 8 years old to go pro idk why one would be jealous though cause they stay little rice manlet insects with arthritis and 99% waste their entire youth to get abused on some academy team for no money and then are jobless once they are too old.

brain power is not just iq even if i believe theyre heavily correlated. reaction time, clicking accuracy and speed, mechanics is all brain power and btw about females. theyre probably not lower iq but ive spectated games of d2-d1 egirls playing ad and they move their champ like theyre disabled riding wheelchair, makes you wonder how did they get that high elo and if they possess other game knowledge that u dont know about lmao (or different playstyle because of female hormones lmao)
females on average definitely have worse mechanics, i dont know what leads to that

i agree that other roles require more game knowledge, the most being in jungle? also the game has gotten more mechanical favoured and fast over the years, champions like akshan, camille, gwen are played more in the top lane than maokai, nasus
i dont really know what happens in the middle of the pack but am sure that only a few can get to the very top mechanical wise in every role (d1+)

if all players grinded the same amount of games every year with the same seriousness a repeated same % would get high elo every year

no, autism is not a disease btw. i have an actual disease that destroyed my life
lol asians have genetic advantage over the western players atleast at this game, but you can find similar insane players in the west too just not as good

just say which disease dog

asians are better cause they dont mind training mechanics 16 hours a day, if the game were more strategical europe would be the best (asians cant come up with new stuff, just copy and improve)
