    But where is “Damn, I just suck at this game?” You know how some people are utterly amazing at games? That’s not me. At all.

      I used to be good at games.

      And then I got older, and now I have a job, and a family, and don’t take Ritalin recreationally.

      I can’t keep up with the teenagers who spend 6 hours after school everyday playing, and that’s okay. I just play games that cater more to my time.

      Last time I played call of duty I just alt-F4d and refunded after some guy kept zooming around the map and mowing me down with some busted SMG. Those games just aren’t for me anymore.

    I hate it especially when it happens on my offline single player game, that’s definitely why I’m getting my ass handed to me by these 4 heavily armed bandits.

      then it comes down to a framerate drop and bullshit (and if you’re playing a non-you character, you can also blame them personally eg. “Link what the fuck are you doing?”)

      I’ve tried using the discord on three different occasions, it never panned out. I’ve honestly had better luck just adding randos after having a really solid game and noticing they know how to play the role and character they choose.
