Re: Should I quit playing online multiplayers?
If I may speak for all my toxic brethren who’ll likely pounce here:
@jokool_aid, DON’T let anyone tell you how to live your life. Alot of ppl, me included dislike it when a game puts us with seemingly braindead or bad ppl who’re supposed to be at least decent if they’re in same lobbies as us (screw you Apex xD). We msg, call out, heck some berate or go on a tantrum against that sucky person... (and then you have those scumbagsofpiecesofdogdoodoo who’ll take it further and threaten, throw racial slurs and such) just as an exhaust for that game.
That said, only you can decide what you like. If you like multiplayer, keep playing it even if you’re bad. Most games have good matchmaking in place (kind of impossible now for BRs due to the number of variables) so that lower skilled go against lower skilled so that it’s even playing field. Don’t let anyone take out the joy you experience while playing it. Like you said, you rage, smash stuff, heck you probably try doing backflips knowing you’ll fail cause you just need to fume out that excess energy. That means your passionate about it. If you didn’t care about losing/winning, mp games and so on you wouldn’t do those things. You can get frustrated, that’s natural. Venting is a way of dealing with it. It’s the same as ppl working out when they’re mad or ppl going to seek professional help to talk things out. Everybody needs a way to offload problems.
Everyone has a ceiling. Maybe yours isn’t that high but don’t worry about it. You can even say beforehand that you’re not very good in mp matches...
I am guilty of calling ppl noobs or stupid too (usually I’m well contained to not go further than that)... mic is muted but I unmute just to say those stuff cuz I know if I say it unmuted I’ll still have the urge to be bad... sometimes I throw controller... usually against pillow... sometimes not...
But the takeaway is, no matter if you suck at something, as long as you enjoy it, even if it frustrates you, keep going. Cause if we all stop doing things we like, what else is there left... <— damnit sounded so poetic in my head with sad music XD.
