Gamers who win with consistency are kinda pathetic. Period.
I respect or look-up to gamers who can beat me at whatever.
I respect the gamer unless he acts like a d-bag when he wins.
I respect the gamer unless his/her personality is off or demonstrates obsession.
I play for escapism. I don't care who wins, loses, or competes.
I generally like to be good enough at every game to not be called a noob.
There are a ton of games where it's really, really hard to learn without failing hard for a long time.
pooping bbl
Personally I have a really hard time with pretty much every game when I first pick it up. Like, I'm borderline retarded. For example, I had probably a ~.6 k/d ratio in both Halo 2 and CoD4 for the first month or so when I started playing those. At some point though there's a breakthrough and I finally "get it."
I don't think I overthink it nearly as much as any of the options here.
on Fast track Status
I have no patience for anyone better than me at a videogame.
That being said. I try to ignore it all as much as I can. I'm totally the escapism player.
But I am just about the most bitter, angry, uncontrollable mother fucker there is when I get on a bad losing streak to an asshole of a player.

As long as they aren't douchebags, skills skill and there's always going to be someone better than you.
Wouldn't it be nice if you were the best though?
I always want to be the best at any given game I play, get all the achievements, have the best scores and times, collect everything, but I know that 99% of the time it's not going to happen, especially if the game is online.
Hell, I rememeber thinking I was AWESOME at Blazing Star with my score of 2,445,xxx.
Then I saw the score attack thread for it and I was reminded of how much I actually SUCK at video games.
And sure, I'd love to beat Through the Fire and The Flames on expert, but I doubt it will ever happen, and watching the videos of people do it just makes me sad. I did however beat it on Hard yesterday, that was a very proud moment for me.
Sure, but if you've done your best, isn't that enough?
