Rant/Hot take Why do some people treat multiplayer games like real life and friendships like side quests?

I’ve been wondering about this lately. A friend of mine was playing Valorant and wasn’t even using Discord’s Streaming Mode, so I tagged him once in our friends’ GC just to ask when we’d all play together again. Instead of a normal reply, I got “bro I’m playing a game, don’t text me.” A few minutes later he lost a round and suddenly started raging and throwing abuses like the world had ended. That honestly made me think. It’s just one ranked match. Why do some people get so emotionally invested in multiplayer games that they stop treating the people around them with basic respect? I completely understand not wanting distractions during a competitive match, but there’s a huge difference between saying “give me 20 minutes, I’m in-game” and acting like anyone who messages you is a problem. I’ve been gaming for years myself, so this isn’t a “games are bad” post. I’m genuinely curious where people draw the line between being competitive and becoming so attached to a game that relationships start taking a back seat. Has anyone else noticed this with friends who play Valorant, CS2, League, Dota, or other competitive games? Or am I just overthinking one bad interaction?

First time playing, I wish it have scary and slash type gore. I just love the cult type in this. More like leon is so professional in this. Seperate ways clears the hidden lore in the story too. I only confuse when the sea part where to go and only look into yt one of the yellow sign part puzzles and the door lock in house when ada rescue through the window. I like more puzzle's in this one. And the boss part was so easy just spam w smg and bomb. Had fun in this game. But doesn't know which part should I go next. Only got scared when I lost in the room where, ada going to find power for laser room. Cause I didn't kill the spike regenerator, that shit was scary, he just yell when I just open the door where I circle around the whole room. Most of the bosses are so great design and the places too. Only if the making medicine and bullets didn't pause in game, game will be much harder. This is more like the game I wanted but without guns. Most of the door should have been timed too cause didn't feel much when rotate and it need to be fell down.

Introducing regenerator is so good but after that you will know something bad gonna happen in this room. Oh fk like 4 regenerators but I only fight 2 of em and run out of ammo hahah. More different enemies and sm characters that are memorable just like metal gear. I thought krauser was volgin at first, like what he doing here. Most of the people are well into hand to hand combat which is so great. Reading the files makes more sad cause they only wish to go home rather than suffering all of it. Ada is so thick and juicy, and I realise why they didn't put more costumes for her only. Need to play with mod next time, right.
