      Of course they’re shit, they’re online competitive games.
      Shit is kind of their thing. It’s why all the tweene shit heads like them.

      You should try some different games made for grownups.

        today is shit compared to 90’s split screen at your friends house, or hot seat single player games as a group, in the same room. or walking to the arcade to check out top scores and compete with others IN PERSON

        sitting in a room by yourself clicking dopamine triggering feedback loops all day on a discord server with fellow addicts is a fucking LONERfest disguised as entertainment. these modern games are deisgned to extract as much profit as possible from the user and the user doesn’t even OWN the fucking game. how can you defend that? fucking shill?

        were living through a time. in person group video gaming will come back one day. we almost had it with pokemon go in 2016 but Niantic shat the bed
