I wish I could enjoy competitive games

[Jason Voorhees]

I don't mean that in a pretentious way like yeah bro I wish I could enjoy video games bro. Touch grass bro. I genuinely wish I could enjoy competitive shooters in a healthy way. It's just that they don't sit well with me. I am all of nothing kind of person.

I am the kind of person who would put his heart and soul on the video game character to ensure that I am the best to ever do it while completely neglecting my family and friends in the process. There's no way for me to do it in a healthy way while some people can clock out of a bad match, shrug, and go have dinner with their family. I throw controllers at the wall and think about it the entire day when I get killed or something. I already have a long list of vices and expensive mistresses in the form of habits and this is not something I want to add to it. And have been able to keep it bay. That's why I stick to story games.

When you lose in a story game, you didn't get outplayed by a 14 year old toxic kid screaming into a microphone. You just encountered a game mechanic you haven't mastered yet so that removes the insult aspect for me.

- I played story games myself when I was younger - but now theres no point to it unless im trying to have common grounds with soemone else who plays games. Unfortunately the vast population of people that play video games arent the type of people i want to associate myself with

- Competitive video games should be a means to socialize whilst doing some other activity. The main point of videogames shouldnt be to escape, but to experience escapism with other people.

- I can only really compare it to drinking alone, whereby alcohol should be the vessel that allows you to have an enhanced social time - opposed to alcohol being the main attraction.

- I prefer to think about videogames as an addiction rather than anything else - and it should be managed like every other addiction. I actually gain nothing from it - but it heightens social settings.

lmk Jason - but my point is I shouldnt allow myself to escape anymore, its just a waste of time.

fr, i go there to enjoy but after few rounds i rage like my life depends on it

- "my team is dogshit, i did fine" fuck my life team games are cancer

I used to be heavy into competitive pvp games but now im sucked into games like dark souls, monster hunter and armored core where the game is forcing you to learn and interact with the game heavily with it being extremely enjoyable while learning the game, single player games just mog crazily especially with how much more of an art form they are and enjoying it is to engage with in all aspects
