My solution is to avoid online games like the plague. It works
My solution is to ignore the assholes and enjoy my game.
This doesn’t work in the games I play
For example: Mordhau Theres always like one or two guys who played it 8 hours a day from day 1 and stomp my whole team. All I can do is make it hard for them, but it typically changes the whole round to be bad and sweaty instead of fun
So what kind of genres do you play then in singleplayer? Which games?
It’s a shame a few popular online games ruin that image for a majority of awesome communities though. I have a few favorite online games and the communities in them are amazing, even made friends and good memories in them.
I can’t remember what it was called, but I basically stopped playing some casual “marbles playing capture the flag” web-based game because the competitive players were toxic. I’m like, okay Braylen, I just popped in because something reminded me I like CTF games. I do not have the maps memorized or the twitch of a bored teenager. Fuckin’ chill, please.
Not online games but I’ve experienced this in other ways.
used to play in a ‘beer-in-hand’ kickball league. The game is played where you have to have always be holding a cup of beer (or water) while you are playing the game. It’s silly and fun and most people don’t take it seriously. Yet every season there was one team full of over achieving type A personalities that took it WAYYYYYY to seriously. Yelling at the refs if they feel they didn’t get a call right, yelling at the other team if they didn’t get the score right, being overall very aggressive. I swear they thought this was the Olympic tryouts or something.
No one liked playing that team, actually they were one of the main reasons that our group of friends stopped all together.
I’ve been on both sides of this picture at different times in my life.
Mute and block FTW. Cant play RB6 siege without it.
I was quite shocked when I started to play (again). The community there is … different
Why I had to stop playing with my brother
