Story goes like this: there are a few people i hang out with. One of them is trying to get others to play dota (competitive moba) and we all enjoy it.
One day while in chat they don't respond to me and i leave. Next day all of them ignore me exept one guy, and then he goes "Hey, you were a cunt and talking about some shit not related to the game, why the fuck would you do that?"
It was a casual game and i just tried to talk normaly while playing okay too. So i didn't make us lose the game, in fact, we didn't lose a single time.
I fucking hate all of the games with highly competitive envoirment. Those games turn semi-normal human beings into a lazy shit who developes a superiority complex and an addiction to feed it.
Knobody will support me and i don't fucking care. I just want this shit to be out of me.
Thanks for the blogpost dude, great read. Do you have twitter so we don't miss any future updates?
Isaac Peterson
I hate dota cause you start to play again after not playing for 1.5 years and just lose 6 games in a row and remember why I quit
Jason Jenkins
Good. Shitters stay out
Sebastian Thompson
I just had nobody to talk to. Getting shit from random people by posting my life problems sounds like fun
Xavier Allen
As much as I hate Dota, that's not the game's fault. That's the people who play it who have nothing better to their lives and push all their autism into the game, pretending it's the most important thing ever. Your friends suck, get new ones.
Carson Roberts
It sucks since the same was with overwatch, and there is only some much people i can lose to a shitty game

Logan Johnson
You won't belive it but i lost my reddit account. Also people here are more deverse and getting supported here feels like it is fucking miracle and makes you happy whatever the situation.

Daniel Flores

Maybe they just want to play the game instead of hearing you talk about whatever faggot anime you're watching. Grow up.
Christopher Thompson
I ran out of them. This happened about two times before already.
Ryder Rivera
Maybe you just really invested into a bunch of strings of code beating up each other so you don't need to socialize. Grow up.
Jace Campbell
Stay away from the competitive scene. It just brings out the worst humanity has to offer. Being able to abide by arbitrary rules set by arbitrary numbers in silly meaningless competitions should not be something people take so damn seriously. Ever.
Asher James
It is sad since so many people get sucked into it and i lose them. I understand how shit competitive videogaming is. People around me don't.
Andrew Taylor
Lol what
Says the person who's own friends don't want to deal with him. Don't talk to me, kid.
Brody Gray
Sounds more like you had shitty "friends"
Wyatt Gray

Matthew Flores
what exactly were you talking about because I get the sense you're not giving us the full picture, I find it hard to believe all your friends all of a sudden ditched you just because you talked about random shit in chat

Stop playing these shitty games and play fighters. You will make friends that last WAY longer if they aren't scrubs. They can take the trash talk and love it. Just don't play with brasils exclusively.

We are playing a casual game. Our dialouge: Me: Hey guys.. so what have you been up to lately? 1: hmm.. nothing 2: uhm. Me: did you read any literachure in the recent times? 2: not really 1: /silences his mic, i didn't notice/ Me: do you guys did anything other then you know, playing dota? 2: i can't remeber anything actually Me: okay.. Then we sit for the rest of the game and next time i see them log in the same time we usually play one of them won't reply.
Michael Nelson
>Me: do you guys did anything other then you know, playing dota?
wow, you sound like a faggot. i don't blame them.

Zachary Allen
OP based on what they said it sounds like you were in the wrong. >"Hey, you were a cunt and talking about some shit not related to the game, why the fuck would you do that?" what did you say to drive them away?
Aaron Cox
you're THAT guy. You're that one person that your friends know but wish they didn't. Every time you get online they audibly sigh and get mad because they didn't pretend to go offline in time to dodge you. You're just going to have to accept this role as annoying kid, or change your personality, or get new friends
I can't repeat it word-to-word. I just rember asking a forced qustion at the end because i was really annoyed by silence for about 6 mins straight.
It was something like "Did you do anything at all?" Or some shit with the same idea.
Christopher Hughes
I sometimes wonder how people can be so completely and wholly lacking in self awareness.
Elijah Evans
>make shit friends >they act like shit >wooooow fuck You just fucking suck at choosing who to hang out with. How the fuck is Dota or any other game at fault?
Camden Wood
We played deep rock galactic and had a blast. Everyone. It happened since they started activly playing dota.
Also i have some friends who don't play video games at all, and they are okay.
Adrian Gutierrez
Sounds like you had a passive aggressive attitude about the whole thing, sometimes people just wanna play a game and not talk to your autistic ass. For real though you're probably really awkward and they just don't want to talk to you period. Don't feel bad or blame them, just try to notice what you were doing when people start to avoid talking to you.
Justin Hughes
It is not exatly dota. It is any competitive videogame, since it makes people turn into potatoes and take a bunch of scripted interactions seriously. Dota is a great game as long as you don't dive deep into being a cybersport pro.
Brayden Johnson
I can't actually disagree with you. Maybe you are right.
Hunter Johnson
I just could never bring myself to care about competitive stuff anyway, at least not if it's linked to actual work. Of course it's nice playing some VS battle against some friends in a beat 'em up or something, but I get bored quickly doing the same shit again and again and in case of actual MMO stuff people always become fanatics who are busy 99% of their free time playing the same fucking game and considerin everything related with it as ultra serious business. I guess I am just too antisocial for that. In the end, competing is just another social trait. I rather play 20 different single player games in the meantime.
Jose Price
ergh I dunno, your questions seem oddly formal for a group of friends but not necceseraly weird or anything, they seem quite eager to avoid you though
Aaron Brooks
Not him and I agree with you but not talking with him anymore it also some bitch move some nine year old would do. I hate passive aggressiveness, but I also hate soreheads with a passion.

Michael Martin
Sure they acted like dicks but I feel like you're in the wrong here. You tried to force a conversation out of absolutely no subject at all, nobody likes that, specially when they have their mind currently on something else. Had you anything to talk at all I'm sure they wouldn't act like that. Do you even have anything in common with your friends? Are they actually your friends, like, how long do you know them? Them avoiding you feels like they were never really your friends(and really fucking childish) or this isn't the first or second time you act like that. I don't know, maybe get checked for aspergers with a professional. From your posts and your story you feel way too awkward for a normal person, even when knowing english isn't your first language.
Jose White
DOTA is fucking cancer, especially OG DOTA. I played OG DOTA since nearly the beginning and no other community is as vile and autistic as them. It's baffling how bad it gets. Every game that is lost there will always be someone on the team looking for a scapegoat to pin his own poor performance on. There was no voice chat in DOTA but you could still hear people reeeeeeing over text chat.
Lincoln Green
team-based pvp games are trash the only good competitive games are the ones where you have full control
Brandon Kelly
>I feel like you're in the wrong here They ignored him like a group of middle school girls because he tried to start a conversation. On what planet is this an appropriate response. They could have just said "Hey man focus on the game" and not treated it like some middle school drama.
Zachary Robinson
Your friends sound like cunts but I'd like to hear their side of the story
Chase Garcia
Based. Competitive gaming is cancer. I play purely for fun and fucking clown on these faggots because my mind isn't held back by the desire to win. It's fucking insane how people actually get mad at this shit.
Jackson Gutierrez
You sound like a little bitch.
Jayden Torres
Calm down fag.
Jose Edwards
OP is a fucking retard if he cant tell that he is playing in tryhard party or casual party. Me and my friends allways clown around in games and play whatever we want. But I have friends that take party games very seriously, I simply dont play with them
Camden Phillips
epic thread
Brody Lopez
Yeah, but I know a few people with assburgers and OPs posts do give me that kind of vibe. If he has a history of this, like how sure he seems to be that all competitive games make people act like that with him (happened with different group of friends?), could be people being fed up with his social awkwardness. Sure they're being fucking retarded, but even when I'm no tryhard I can't say I don't understand.
But that's just me being an armchair doctor, really, I don't know. Maybe I'm being retarded as well.

Remember this one guys calling me a casual gamer despite spending more time playing games than any other activity and acualy playing genres and games that most casuals cant handle like Megaman X from games and Stylish action etc usually on hard because unlike him i am not spending half my life playing a single game like him and then pretending i am good enough to go pro and then making excuses as to why i am not going pro.
Unless you acualy want to go pro one day there is literally no reason to be hyper competitive in a game. In fact only value i see in game ranks is the game matching me whit opponents more of my level. This is why i stooped at platinum in SFV anything beyond that is just not fun for mee seeing as its mostly try hards and i enjoy playing all the characters even the ones i suck at.
>playing genres and games that most casuals cant handle like Megaman
I mean I could say the same thing about most casuals can't handle black cocks in their ass. No but seriously everyone knows any game with a ranking system represents a learning curve, games use a chess algorithm.
Imagine if Megaman X had leaderboards for how quickly done etc highly ranked Overwatch,Dota, CSGO players at some ranked threshold will beat you every time.
This will always come closer to the truth them most games with any kind of matchmaking system or leader board. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not it's going to be in all games soon, it's inevitable with the technology we have.
