Cozy gaming is just better

[PGen98]

I got so sick of "serious" gamers taking every game like it's life or death and if you're not an amazing teammate or opponent then you're worth being scolded relentlessly and mocked for being a "noob" and terrible and not knowing how to game. It's just so unnecessary. It's gaming. It's supposed to be fun.

That's why I don't play the latest CoD or the latest sports games in online modes, I don't play fortnite or Apex or whatever else. I play games for fun, I play games with story modes, games with single player modes or casual online modes. Games where I can relax and just play. If I zone out a bit because I'm just gaming, fantastic!! That means I'm having fun. Palia has been one of my more intense obsessions of late, and it's got such a welcoming, cooperative community as you work to gather resources and complete quests. It's fantastic. I love it. It's the definition of what an online casual cozy game should be.

Real gaming is better than "competitive" gaming.

Yes, absolutely. There is nothing worse than spawning in an online game and getting headshot over and over again. It just ruins the experience completely.

100% this. There's nothing worse than going up against someone that plays the game night and day and is so "good" at it they know every inch of every map and you just...can't do anything.

I think the same in FIFA, etc.

People play in ability classes well below their ability for the ‘easy’ win - which just spoils the experience for those of that aren’t as … good.

Totally agreed, it's worthless. I'm a casual gamer these days, and yeah, I admit I used to be more serious in my younger days, far too serious. But now I game because I love gaming. I don't want to play people that spend all day everyday playing the game I'm trying to have a quick bit of fun in. I want to play people who are like me, trying to have some fun.
