I don't even want these games, I just want them to stop bugging me to buy them. We're never gunna play together. I'm gunna get bored and go back to playing some other shit game that they also think is shit.
There's no escape.

I'm convinced half the players only play it for the porn anyway. I mean, it's good, plenty of variations for many people; and I fap to it from time to time. I just don't think the gameplay is there and friends just play it cause their friends play it, and now I have to play it cause I bought it so I'm "obligated" to play it now or whatever. But I don't even want the games, I just want them to stop telling me to buy them so they'll get off my back.

I don't understand it either. It seems like everyone i know is incredibly frustrated by games like League and Overwatch but they go back every day. But what do i know, I suffer it with them just to feel some kind of social interaction for a short time.

I feel like it's just not worth it any more, we don't get to know each other better or even have any fun playing the game any more

This is why I will never "Get in voice chat."

It doesn't actually help your chances of succeeding to listen to someone bitch and moan in your ear the whole match.

There are buttons you can use to tell people to group up, what your ult status is, and if you need healing. What more do you need?

>>376648325
Overwatch is designed to be fun, but at the highest level of play extremely competitive and tailored for esports.
>>
>>376645827
The game has shit that is made to kill players in one hit. Add this in a competitive environment and you got yourself a recipe for anger. Its fun at first but that shit does last when people start to get serious about it.
>>
Just yesterday because I did crap one match, I got shit on by a group, next match I got matched up with them again and they turned everyone against me saying I suck balls and shouldn't be masters.

I said I was sorry
>>
>>376648671
why would i do that when the game is just not fun?

like remember playing voip shit with friends?
playing stuff like left 4 dead and having fun?
whereas overfags can download a completely different game and grind time in it just to unlock a skin in another game that they keep saying is shit
>>376649236
if its not fun, stop playing it, theres so many amazing video games out there (or other things to do in general if you are inclined)
>>
>>376645827
You're playing with shitty people OP. Most people that play it think they're the best, but they actually suck. Most my friends are the same, but I've got one friend I actually enjoy playing with. We're both decent players, but moreover we have fun with video games. We play different arcade modes mostly, but even when we play quick play we try to work as a team.
>>
>>376649865
It's absolutely insane how many people believe they should be higher ranked.
You know someone is a shitter when they blame their team rather than themselves.

I believe that's the difference between a decent player and a bad one.
>>
>>376650349
Sometimes it's fair to blame the team thought. I main Mercy so I literally can't carry. Plus there's times where the team just doesn't listen and goes 5 DPS.
But you're right, a lot of the time it's not just the team. Shit I got put in Silver rank since I didn't bother with season 3, and played Mercy in my placements. I'm only irritated cause it's gonna take longer to get a gold weapon, which is the only reason I play competitive.

Like a mobile game, they've simply been hooked. They've been grabbed by the simple game loop, bright colors and constant pats on the back and come back for more every time. Do they spend money on the skins?
>>
>>376651765
Nah, my friend loves Heroes of the Storm, and likes to play it competitively. He complains, yells, and whines constantly. He's bronze.

I shotcall, ping, communicate effectively, and am generally amicable in all games. I hover between Diamond 1/Low Master.

>Not dipping into TF2
I like Siege, but I like the movement of TF2 so much. Try it on a free weekend.
>>
>>376652335
i played shitton of TF1 and loved it but they ruined it with TF2, have shit maps and a dead playerbase and no working AC.
>>
>>376651975
The exact opposite happened to me. I kept trying to find a fun game to play with my friend, but every game he'd get bored of in a week or two. We went through Killing Floor 1/2, Borderlands 1/2, Dead Rising 2/OTR/3, Paragon, TF2, Rocket League, and more. But he won't play any of them, he pretty much exclusively plays Overwatch. And he's the most insufferable player. He'll get a lucky shot and laugh like the other play is terrible, unironically says "please be me" before every potg, and complains when it isn't him. Most people that play OW are fucking awful like this.

I do it to his face because it annoys me. Makes no difference to him.
>>
>>376645827
Two reasons, ow has a low skill ceiling and normalfags always think their good.

OW and mobas are the sors of games that breed this sort of 'im not the problem mentality' because of the heavy reliance on cooldowns. There are times where you'll have two griefers aka 4vs6 games where it doesnt matter how good you are. You could get headshots on mcree all day but the other team is full of shields and will focus you down because you are the only threat.

In other games like UT or even TF2 the margin of mediocre to great is large enough that the player can carry more of the weight from the team. In OW its so easy to counter anything that it takes a simple switch to get past it. Most characters gunplay are centered around essential abilities so that a character sitting their without them is a sitting duck.

Its why most people who play mobas will complain about their team more than gettin gud.
>>
Because these games are fucking slot machines, you will have a lot of bad matches to make the good one stand out and keep you keeping pressing those unlock loot boxes bottoms.
>>
>>376646367
This. I used to play OW with a group of friends and we stopped playing it within a couple of weeks. It's one of those things we did together because it was a group activity, but none of us seemed to actually enjoy it.
>>
>>376652924
people have been playing it for overwatch skins

>>376652924
getting more popular because the events get people to stay and stick around I hope it fucking dies just like the switch

Bronze is surprisingly... I don't want to say comfy, but it's nice because at least everyone is the same level of shit, so there's no real expectations and pretty much everyone is just having a good time. Nobody really rags on anyone else or complains about hero choice, at least not for the most part.

>genji is on me behind you guys
>guys genji
>die

This has happened to me a shit ton, and I'm GM. What really bothers me is that sometimes you shouldn't need VC to know there is an enemy on your backline. If you fucking hear genji and tracer noises behind you, and there isn't a genji or a tracer on your team, why the fuck aren't your turning around?

I join VC most of the time anyway, but I just immediately leave if the comms are useless and the team is just bitching nonstop. What's funny is that these idiots tell me to rejoin voice in the midst of their arguing.

I just can't grasp how anyone can be bronze in this game. This has to be the most casual game In existence,
There are heroes that skill cap after 1 hour and you can dominate for ever on them.

The game is casual at Grandmaster ranks in NA,

I started in silver and fell down there because I was solo queueing on a weekend (and was too stupid not to just stop playing once the losing streak kicked in). Couldn't climb out of the bronze sinkhole because I'm honestly not good enough to carry five people who all want to play attack snipers, so at this point I've just learned to live with it.
