Anger makes you weak, unfocused, less patient, and more prone to making impulsive mistakes.

Being tired ruins your focus, a ruined focus ruins your reactions.
Getting mad at the game only makes it all even worse, sleeping on it and coming back with a fresh mind makes everything way easier.

I have to get angry first for victory to feel any good or meaningful. anyone else?
>>
>>738416287
Anger makes you play worse, it literally affects your brain, which also learns while you sleep. This is quite literally how I learned fighting games. It's also how you learn anything.

Your brain solidifies what you learned that day or some shit I dunno I'm not a brain scientist. But it does feel like there's some sort of defragmenting process that happens overnight.

If I win by trial and error it isn't real win. I want to actually learn it.

I'm not, it was just the first game over I got and it was late at night and I was playing a long time. I never really managed my item rings or anything because the game is generally easy. Slept on it, next play I sorted my item rings and got through it. It was notable because I remember Jenova from the SNES rom back in the day and that was the first hard boss back then too, but it's usually a just one of those "hey player pay attention to the game or get deservedly wrecked" encounters.

I'm still mad that the only reason very hard Armstrong is such a motherfucker is because nobody upgrades Sam's sword
if you get even a few upgrades the fight is fucking easy

I remember my younger brother playing his first JRPG and he got filtered by a hard middle game boss. He didnt know about changing and equipping gear until I noticed he was still wearing his starter shit and showed him how. I was actually suprised he got that far without it.

WHY is this. Someone give me the science or religious concepts that explain this. I got stuck for 9 hours on a boss that I almost clutched first try

>>738422370
>go in confident
>gets shaken after first loss
>do worse in subsequent attempts

learn to control your emotions

>>738422370
Zero expectations, no fear, excited at the new challenge. All things that make it easier to focus and get in the zone.
