>>738119951too distracted looking at miku
>>738119951Shut up migu
>>738119951I'm only 29, I still have time to get good
Don't need to be good at them to enjoy them
>>738119951>wasted whole life playing games>still shiti think that'd be good to put on my tombstone

>>738119951Where Rin
>>738119951I'm low IQ and even if I put effort into things I usually fail
>>738119951I am good at the video games!
The games are most enjoyable when I suck at them. Once I really get into it, it just feels like a chore.
>>738119951Modded openxcom extended.I love it, but ffs piratez mod feels like if you beat it on jack Sparrow, you could put it on a job application as a qualification.
>>738119951i play games with my dick in a woman that play them
>>738119951Bad genetics.
>>738119951I just suck at action, simple as
>>738120557I can beat piratez on jack sparrow ironman yet I earn minimum wage as a QA monkey in the game industry. Being good at games has almost no application in real world even in the gaming industry.
>>738120764What do you mean?
>>738119951I suck at everything
>>738119951I can’t relate. I’ve hit top 10 in multiple games across different genres. Most people just refuse to learn or admit their mistakes. Had a friend like that, blamed everyone but himself and never changed anything. That’s why most players stay bad.
>>738122629Do you suck at sucking dick?
>>738119951Miku would never say that.
>>738119951hey I've gotten pretty good at putting blocks down in minecraftsometimes I can even place two blocks if I really want
>>738119951I'm genuinely getting worse, feels like dementia or something
>>738122629sex with satania
>>738119951I'm old... It's too late for me...
>>738123119I've never done that before
>>738119951I very quickly become good at every game I play, the problem is that I peak in the top 1-2% and that's just not enough to break out into the pro scene and be a competitor anyone remembers.It's worse than being shit actually.
>>738120362The boy cries you a sweater of tears, and you kill him.
>>738125970proud of you
>>738121148...i feel really bad for saying that now dude. I apologize
>>738119951I don't care about getting good just for brownie points from others.Sure it's a coping mechanism, but it makes my life easier and more fulfilling.
I never had gamer friends growing up, but now in university I got a nice group of guys and gals who partake in the medium, and, lo and behold, I'm the best among them! Take that Hatsune Miku! I *am* good at gaming!
>>738119951"Practice makes perfect" Is not actually true.You can never be truly good at something you don't have inmate talent in.You can improve, obviously, but never reach a higher level.I used to be an instructor in Jujutsu, and I could tell from day one, if someone was going to actually get anywhere. Not a single time, in all my years, have someone surprised me. Not once. The ones that did well in competitions, or reached a higher belt grade, were without a single exception, someone that showed promise on their first day.
>>738127358Are you really a sorcerer?
>>738127358do you think it's more cruel to not tell someone a painful truth or tell them earlier that they don't have the potential
>>738127489I think you have to judge everyone on an individual basis. Some people are weak, and can't hear the truth. Even when they knows what it is.That being said, if anyone ever asked me directly, I would tell them the truth.It's can be fine to avoid telling someone, but lying aboiut their potential is always wrong.
>>738119951>he's been playing games for yearsdoing something for a long time doesn't mean that you actually practiced to improvea wagie that plays an hour or two after work can clock thousands of hours in some multiplayer MMO slop and still be dogshit at itmeanwhile a 13yo on adderall that's grinding the shit out of the game while being very competitive and always trying to improve is surely going to play betterthere's also the fact that unless you are in the 0.1% that earns money from gaming (e-sport professional players, don't count journos/reviewers because they don't even have to complete the game to shit out their worthless takes) video games are effectively useless, you will never get a medal or recognition for doing some retarded challenge or completing thousands of games on the hardest difficultyalso give a gamepad to some old person and see them struggle more than a little kid, you have just enough skills to adapt and learn any game to beat it, not necessarily to master it
>>738127358>You can never be truly good at something you don't have inmate talent in.Yeah but ultimately it's relative. You can't be in the top 0.1%, so what? Do you just give up and don't try and do anything unless it's guaranteed that you are going to become the best at it? People subconsciously know this because it's immediate to see if you are so far ahead than your peers at something, so everyone is kinda aware of their potential already (unless they live in delusions).You likely will never win an international math olympiad but you may win a math olympiad in your school/city/region/country if you try and for some people it's as gratifying and fulfilling because that in itself is a big achievement.
>>738128769I'm not saying it's pointless to do something unless you can become an elite. I am merely saying that just because you have done something for a long time, in this case, video games, that does not mean you will be any good at it.
>>738127029me too
