Oh, it's better to read the user agreement, there are such horrors there... Access to your PC at any time when you are connected to the network without problems...

Didn't know that the offended wine moms of America got linked this post, sad that as an adult you can't control your feelings when someone makes jokes on a video game

By the way, what kind of editors do you use to create these memes? I don’t want to trust online editors or anything corporate. I hope you understand.

Use Krita

Okay, thanks then I'll watch tutorials like in the good old days. :3

Unpopular opinion but games with community-driven multiplier (i.e. people hosting their own servers) is infinitely better than matchmaking multiplayer running on the dev/publisher's servers if only for the sole reason that players have a choice of what kinds of communities they want to build and what things other players should be allowed to do instead of being forced into a sterilized commercial monoculture. I should be able to say "KYS KYS" in game if the people I'm playing with are okay with it.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 30 minutes ago

So unpopular...

[-] LwL@lemmy.world 9 points 3 hours ago

That and it's easier to make genuine connections with regulars. Nowadays for that you have to go out of your way to join a community discord or similar because nearly all multiplayer games are built to play with your existing friends.

i miss the days of shit talking in COD lobbies for hours. so funny hearing people cry about my perfect grenade throws ruining their killstreaks

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 2 points 53 minutes ago

Classic pre-game lobbies

[-] Vincentmario@feddit.uk 10 points 3 hours ago

All I said was gg 5 times

[-] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 14 points 4 hours ago

On a side note I shouldn't be getting comm banned for swearing on a game that's not only rated M but also has swearing in the game.

[-] _AutumnMoon_ 10 points 6 hours ago

completely unfair ban, they said it three times the rule only had it twice, how could they have know?

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 16 points 9 hours ago

I miss when we’d get French players on Xbox Live voice chat and playfully abuse in other in our own languages (I know enough French of that sort).

[-] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 15 points 7 hours ago

I used to love getting foreigners who've only learned English for weapons/vehicles that don't translate for some reason and swear words.

You'd get "eusbdheu sjot8fb skxbfh LE SNIPER RIFLE eudbdisn fjfbdbdju kshdbdbr LE ROCKET LAUNCHER fidndjdb skejfb behdhcui SHIT BASTARD FUCK BASTARD FUCK FUCK BASTARD SHIT"

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago

I so miss þe playful abuse between strangers in game via voice. Nostalgia for a certain time this world may never feel again, expressed on a platform that is so anti casual-confrontation most won't understand or enjoy that time.

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 10 hours ago

Just play EA games. You can say anything.

Fuck EA.

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 53 minutes ago

Blizzard game chat is horrid lol

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

I’ve had voice chat disabled since forever. I will not listen to the tools I play against. Racist and political trolls along with just general assholery. Not worth it. The only time VoIP is worth it these days is of you’re playing with a known group that polices its chat.

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 4 points 8 hours ago

Sis, yeah, fuck EA. EA not spending money on caring one way or the other checks out.

[-] belastend@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 14 hours ago

If a low stakes game makes you so furious that you wish for someone to die, you should not be allowed to play these games.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 12 points 12 hours ago

Agreed, they need to improve their skills enough to make it happen instead of merely passively hoping that the world improves itself.

[-] ZkhqrD5o@lemmy.world 96 points 21 hours ago

I will never understand why the hell people tilt so hard for an online game. Aren't free time activities supposed to be fun?

[-] zeca@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

'Fun' and 'chill' are not the same concept. Fan things can be irritating, can make you excited and go through various emotions.

[-] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Gamers aren't well adjusted people

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 5 hours ago
[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 6 points 8 hours ago

It’s the same as parents going full tilt against the ref of a kids league soccer match.

Personally speaking, I think it's addiction to the game. I played the game Enlisted for a few years and became a veteran player. It irritated me so much when I got inexperienced players on my team and I was carrying. I insulted my team mates in the chat a fair few times out of frustration. It just wasn't enjoyable at all, yet I kept booting the game up every day.

Competitive online games really affect my mood, they make me so angry and I can't help it. It's unhealthy when a video game is actually ruining your day.

I just stick to singleplayer games now.

[-] brown_guy45@lemmy.zip 39 points 20 hours ago

Offline games are mostly chill

But online games, even though people play it for fun but after sometime it gets too frustrating when you don't get the kills

That's why I left playing online shooting games, those made me more angry

[-] kautau@lemmy.world 15 points 19 hours ago

It’s funny too because it totally depends on the game and how it’s monetized and set up as well. I had some of the most fun in games in my life playing quick play in the original overwatch with my buddies, even though I almost exclusively prefer offline single player open world games.

My skill increased dramatically with our constant playing, I switched between DPS, tank, heals and really learned the roster. Not that far off from playing N64 super smash with those same friends in college and switching to a new character when you felt like you had learned one pretty well.

I would get annoyed at losing, but it was whatever, I wasn’t trying to rank in competitive mode. I work hard enough in life and work, I’m not playing the game to work harder.

That being said, unless someone was a Smurf or hacking, I never got super mad at other players for simply being better than me, usually the characters felt pretty balanced and if we lost it was because of bad teamwork or lower skill. All characters were available to everyone, the only monetary value was skins.

Then I played overwatch 2, and immediately there were battle pass characters locked behind paywalls or engagement, and those characters were seriously unbalanced. The game was “free to play” and “pay to win” right off the bat and I haven’t touched it again, even though I put countless hours into the first game. And that sour taste I have now makes it so I refuse to play any game with a battle pass.

Back when I still played ranked in online games, I always felt like if I didn't have Don't Stop Me Now by Queen playing in the back of my head... I just wasn't in the right mood to play.

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Reminds me of that time when it felt like having Epix Sax Guy playing in the background helped out with Hearthstone RNG.

'Kys' simply means 'kisses' in Danish. I refuse to read it as any other meaning.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 43 points 19 hours ago

"Gentlemen, you can't kiss in here! This is a war game!"

[-] essell@lemmy.world 11 points 17 hours ago

Boy have I got some news to share about what goes on during wars!

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 12 points 18 hours ago

I know how to French kiss, but not Danish kiss. Thanks for teaching me, stranger.

[-] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 8 points 17 hours ago

Danish kiss is when you squirt cheese or fruit into their mouth beforehand

I never will buy an online game for 60 bucks.

[-] Grostleton@lemmy.dbzer0.com 84 points 22 hours ago

True, $70+ is becoming the new standard...

Only if you want the peasant option, the RealGamer™ edition starts at 100 plus dlc.
