Are there any games you've spent hundreds or thousands of hours trying to get good at but you're still terrible? I'm about really to kill myself over this.

It isn't really the games fault. I'm depressed and dead and empty outside of the game which is definitely why it makes me as angry as it does. But you'd think after thousands of hours of playing I wouldn't be beaten by almost everyone I play against online. I'm seriously considering smashing my console because playing this game isn't helping my already poor state of mental health. It's making me feel much worse and I'm genuinely afraid to play because I know how depressed and angry it makes me feel but I don't have anything else to do so sometimes I give in, play it and then I feel like complete absolute shit afterwards. I feel like crying and I'm a 23 year old man. Why the fuck am I so much worse then everyone after all this time and effort. I don't fucking understand it. Why can't I just fucking improve. Even casuals are better than me and I've literally been practicing for three fucking years.

Make fun of me in this thread if you want. I already know I'm a complete fucking failure so you can't insult me in a way I'm not already aware of.

It's gotten to the point where I'd rather just stop playing forever at this point. I know I'm never going to get good and all this game is is a risk for me to have at home. Every time I play it it triggers this angry depressive episode. It never makes me feel good and it's never fun. I think I might actually throw out the console. I have a PC anyways so I only use the fucking console for this one game. It doesn't have any other use.

Last season of league I got to play 2 and now I'm basically stuck in silver. I feel like I play the game because I'm bored and my life is really empty so I fill most of the time, which means support, and I just play random shit. I can't rank up because I'm so bored of the game I literally never feel like playing an actual role with an actual champion and actually tryharding.

If I played less I would rank up but I literally force myself to play that game for at least six hours every single day because I have nothing else to do.

I could be good at overwatch but my doctor says I must keep my blood pressure low. So no caffeine or long game sessions. If I was back in my teens I could probably reach GM.

In Dark Souls I've exhausted all options others than Ornstein & Smough and the Tomb of the Giants. I can't even beat O&S with summoning and I've clipped through the floor too many times in TotG to trust it anymore

I have DSII and III in my backlog and I'm fighting every urge not to drop the game and move on to the next one early

the only key to getting good is literally just looking at what mistakes your making and thinking about why you took a certain action. until you reach a very high skill level getting good at vidya is 90% correcting your mistakes and not playing on autopilot and wondering why you lost

You function at a drastically reduced efficiency when you're depressed. You think slower, move slower, are less attentive.

You may very well suck at video games, but being depressed is main you suck even more. All you're doing by sinking more hours into it is worsening your depression and making you learn bad habits in the game and ingraining them into your brain.

You are literally making the situation worse on all fronts the more you refuse to face your depression by sinking hours into escapism.

Seek professional help. Or kill yourself. That's literally your only two options since you clearly cannot deal with it alone.

also i forgot to mention that it helps to have friends to play with, especially ones that are better than you. this might be hard for most of /v/ but it speeds the process of getting good greatly when you have someone to point out your mistakes and give you advice. this is how i got better at most vidya that i play. of course it was initially difficulty with so much dick in my mouth, i learned to overcome it be loosening my throat and just letting my friends do the work.

Get a real hobby. Practicing to be good at a fucking video game is the most cringe thing in the world. Stop wasting your life

It's funny because Paladins isn't even hard. I'd probably get my shit pushed in since I haven't played in like 2 months though. I only really played it for like 3 weeks before I was really good at it. It only requires you to play it a shit load, while also making sure you can play every champion type.

I've literally played a thousand hours and still play on Noble.

Woodworking, having sex, reading the back of cereal boxes, masturbating to primary colors, building cars (with legos), and exercising your calves until you can crush a can for starters. Nerd.
