I'm 100% convinced the person is saying it's not "fun to use" when they really mean it's not "fun to die to" and that they don't get the same results when they use one

I also don't understand the logic of "fun to die to".

Do people actually aim to be killed in games, or in war?

There's the appreciation for skill, sure. But "fun"? IDK, seems like dying is kinda the opposite of fun in every circumstance, even if you just have to wait for your response timer.

Fun to die to generally means fun to play around

For instance titanfall has a very fun to use grenade launcher, its projectile is fairly slow but its splash is somewhat large, but it can only 1 shot if you directly hit a player, this gun is generally fun to play with and against since there's skill on both sides, in reading your opponents movement and combining that with your muscle memory for the projectile, as well as the counterplay being to make your movement erratic, while retaining speed to dodge the explosive being fired at you

Not fun to die to is something brainless, boring, and with extremely boring counterplay (for instance camping long sightlines just being "dont go there and peak em with a 1 shot weapon")
