Do you get gamer rage and how do you cope with it?
>>
>>737265648
I'm huwite and don't get angry at my own leisure hobby.
>>
I used to but then I grew up and realised it doesn't matter.
>>
>>737265648
Never broke anything but a lot of yelling fuck you cunt bitch motherfucker benchod bloody
>>
Where do you even buy such low quality "wood" furniture that can crumble to bits from getting hit by a game controller?
>>
I've never broken a single peripheral of mine

>>737265927
Ikea
>>
>>737265927
Presumably the same store you buy whatever walls are made of in the US
>>
>>737265927
Bangladesh. Next question
>>
>>737265648
>Do you get gamer rage
yeah
>how do you cope with it?
committing crime, rioting, violence, burning down buildings
>>
>>737265648
The only way you could reasonably get mad playing vidya is in competitive multiplayer. So just don't play that.
>>
>>737265648
Blame the developers DSP style
>>
>>737265648
I started doing it ironically in hon and it became a huge problem for me for a decade because it became a personality trait instead of an ironic bit.
but now I have ascended and I no longer get mad and I still play competitive games daily.
>>
>>737266159
What if that's the only thing I play and I don't have the focus and energy to try harder than my teammates and carry every single fucking game and not get mad when I still lose and waste 4 hours of my time because I can't play the game 15 hours a day and grind out a 55% win rate just to get out of fucking diamond rank
>>
>>737266453
>So just don't play that.

I never understood how people how people rage at a game to the point of destroying or damaging something. Is it just poor impulse control?
>>
no i think I'm too depressed to feel so strongly about videogames
>>
>>737266603
>Is it just poor impulse control?
It's usually caused by a deeper and unrelated issue like being a 32 year old virgin that lives with his mother and works at Wal Mart part time because full time is too stressful
>>
>>737265927
The more pertinent question is why the sides of the hole are pulled up around the controller if it was smashed down from above.
>>
>wood bursting outwards
>control "hit" inwards
So fake and gay image
>>
Sometimes when I'm feeling cantankerous I execute a pedophile
>>
>>737266895
Based, gotta kill all those trooner groomers
>>
>>737266845
>tries to pull it out
>wood bursts outward
>it's stuck
>decide to take a picture instead of fighting with it
wow
>>
>>737267127
How can it be stuck when the figure only decrease on diameter the closer to the outer handle?
Also zero scratches on the controller.
Double fake and gay on your part with those excuses

when the video game challenges me

break my keyboard in half then run outside and rape the nearest woman
>>
>>737267804
Heated gamer moment.
>>
Breaking shit is expensive. I just punch myself in the dick and blaspheme the Lord.
>>
Do you get angry playing with toys? Pathetic
>>
>>737266751
well need to call me out like that anon

>>737265807
This. I used to rage as a teenager and even in my early 20s but I don't anymore and haven't really raged since I was like 23 or 24. I might still yell FUCK but actually breaking your own shit is just retarded as fuck because you're going to have waste your money replacing it. Eventually you grow up realize how stupid you're actually being.
>>
>>737265648
I did when I was a kid, dont do it anymore cuz I'm an adult now and dont wanna break my shit just to waste money on another one
>>
>>737265648
Yes
I avoid those games
>>
>>737266845
If the initial impact was a swing, then the controller's handle would dig under the wood a bit as the hit ends.
>>
>>737268295
Holy shit that's the stupidest thing I've read all month
>>
>>737265648
>Do you get gamer rage
Yes
>how do you cope with it?
I simply live with the rage
>>
>>737265648
Boot up doom + russian overkill + moonman doom enemies, then load up NUTS
>>
>>737266603
It's a mix of poor impulse control as well as getting some level of relief from smashing something. I remember being a kid and Pokemon would piss me off to the point where I would stab the screen with scissors or I would go full autistic retard and and bite and scratch the screen with my teeth like a fucking retard. Obviously it damaged my screen but at the time of chimping out it made me feel better as if I was hurting the game itself...when I obviously wasn't. It's like when as a kid, we'd say out loud "I don't care if it loads, I don't even want to play this" as if somehow the PS1/PS2 could hear us and decide to magically read the disc this time.
>>
>>737265648
My property, my prerogative. Besides, getting mad every once in a while is fun. Better raging then stonefaced the entire time, and usually, if you're raging, it means you're tackling a challenge lesser men aren't up to. Never understood the NPCs clowning on ragers. Maybe they're just jealous they don't have souls and can't exhibit the same scale of emotions with something they claim to care about.

It's a mental illness.

The very first thing I do when someone starts bitching in-game is check the scoreboard. If they're some shitter that's halfway down (or more often at the fucking bottom) I just tell them to shut the fuck up, because they're clearly part of the problem they're crying about. It's oftentimes a trait of retarded underaged thirdworlders who think anyone gives a fuck about them seething about being a shitter. I'm not playing the game to deal with some favela macaco/jeetgroid/SEAmonkey kid's tantrum when I'm busy actually shooting the fucking enemies and topping the scoreboard.
>>
>>737265927
that's not wood
>>
Number one stay away from sports games because a ton of those kids are cheating in them and you're trying to play it straight

Stick to single player games there's a shit ton of good ones
>>
my gamer rage ruined few shitty mouses and controllers, all xbox controllers

the top layer is paper and the controller went down at an angle, 'hooking' into the surface with the handle and peeling the top layer back
>>
>>737265648
As soon as i start getting loud i stop playing the game
if this repeats i uninstall the game until i have matured enough to play it (this never happens and i just leave a bad review)
just happened with resident evil 2 remake a few days ago, now im playing the original and having a chill, good time
games never were supposed to be difficult

>rage
i feel nothing but perpetual satisfaction as i continue to not buy games
>>
IN all honesty i dont know how people can be so calm
I was screaming from the top of my lungs for minutes when playing ni oh 1, i took entire showers while discussing with myself what kind of bullshit this game was, i think i threw my gamepad against the wall around 4-5 times (based nanco, i bough another one this shit just doesnt break)
I think the entire ordeal shaved off months off oif my lifespan if not a year

>>737268040
I broke two controllers and a headset like this when I was 13.
I used to get rage so bad I had to leave my house until I cooled off and sometimes I wouldnt cool off for hours and just go right back to slamming shit. I was retarded.
I kicked the habit by 16 but very ocassionally I still get the urge to slam my mouse into my desk on really bad losses and important PC crashes.
Especially when premiere pro or fucking photoshop crashes in the middle of a session like fuck off I'm trying to do work motherfucker.
