>multiplayer game
>top players are not the smartest but simply the ones with the most hours played
Is there a name for lame games like that?
Are there any games that are actually about skill and not just the number of hours you put in?
And no, sweetie, being "good" because you put 10k hours in is not skill. Sorry.

Fighting games.

>>737584293
fighting games are just about played time, nothing else
they're just about muscle memory, even more than FPS games
no brain, just monkey reflexes

I know chess and go players with hundreds if not thousands of games played and they are still dogshit. So probably start there.

Problem is chess is what you are looking for but its the exactly the same...

Anyone who says fighting games is way dumber than they want to admit to themselves

So nothing like intrinsic skill or talent actually exists.
It's all just about who is the biggest loser with the highest time wasted on the thing.
So being good in gayming is inherently cringe.
It always means you just spent huge heaps of time on a given game. And that can never be seen as something cool.
Sad.

This is why RNG combat is based and gamers are fucking retarded

What the fuck do you think skill is?

horsey can't go that many fields out without some logistic piece bringing it more hay
this is unrealistic

Talent exists but it can't make up for a lack of professional-level time investment in anything.

take the average walmart greeter and the average FAANG programmer
wipe their memories
put them in front of a computer with internet access for 5 years

which one do you think is gonna be a better programmer after those 5 years?

But what if it takes 10k hours to learn it all?
War Thunder aerial battles, you have to be both smart and spend thousands of hours learning and understanding what is happening. I have shit aim but 10 KD with all sorts of planes.

talent is just how good your brain is built for specific task
it CAN absolutely crush huge amount of time related advantage other people can have in a field
it's a huge multiplier
the "just work hard and keep at it" is a widespread brainlet cope of the lower class untalented unwashed masses, pretty much just a form of class-wide damage control

>it CAN absolutely crush huge amount of time related advantage other people can have in a field
Only if it's paired with a huge amount of time investment and practice. No professional is getting beat by some talented retard that never practiced a day in his life.
