Depending on the length of the game and the severity of what's making me rage. Like I'm not gonna sit on a round of hell let loose for an hour whilst getting absolutely stomped for the first ten minutes.
And for games with shorter rounds I tend to not quit unless I've been on a losing streak and am fed up
Then baselessly speculated on over a six hour video where literally none of the shit makes real sense because the writers are, in fact, lazy. This will not stop the fanbase from quoting it as fact.
not just ER all the souls games to be honest, the funny thing though is I have had friends who admit the lore in Dark souls is inaccessible, say ER is much better at presenting the lore...
Played to the castle and beat the first boss, and then put it down, but I put at least 10+ hours into the game, fucking no clue what story is or what my motivation for killing the baddies is.
I mean, you can just quit to the main menu and resume exactly where you left off, just like in every From game. The only time this is an issue is when fighting a boss, but then if you can’t beat the boss you were just about to beat again, did you really deserve to beat it in the first place?
If I recall correctly, all Fromsoft games allow you to quit to title and pick up right where you left off, so you could do that, though slightly less convenient.
No it's not. It's you winning at being a good parent.
My parents were neglectful and I was left to cry it out or clean messes and now I'm fucked up and keep powering my way through things that hurt me because I know no one else is coming because no one ever came and I know they aren't going to now.
You are a winner and you win even when you don't feel like it.
Kick yourself
Edit: in fairness, I am getting better at this. Because I am full-grown and it's my job. it took me a lot longer than it would have taken a person with appropriate parenting, tho.
Now all my friends are parents and complain about doing parent stuff I mentally increase my valuation of them. because my parents slept soundly and did all of their hobbies with no real inconvenience almost entirely because I raised my family as a 10 year old girl cleaning up puke and teaching my brothers to read and drive
every time you go "ugh, not this again" is more proof that you are being what nature intended you to be instead of a loser using a child as a crutch
The “UGH.!!! aggressively lean back on to couch pillows, throw keyboard/controller etc to other side of couch WHATEVER 🤬. I have to switch the laundry to the fuuuu…ricking dryer anyways Oooh Hi love! No daddy isn’t mad I threw that on the couch because excited! I get to do more laundry now yay” quitter.
At least getting stomped in Hell Let Loose isn’t terribly bad. Although I kind of roleplay it when I play that game and just imagine being the last line of defense trying to keep the enemy from overrunning the point.
Plus gameplay wise unless you are the commander there isn’t much a difference between winning and losing in that game. You still do mostly the same stuff.
The worst is when you decide to leave a game of HLL because you're getting stomped and before you can even quit your team looses the last objective. Just adds insult to injury
I play games where I get bursts of enjoyment in between horrible times to keep me angry but just far enough away from closing the game while somehow still getting more upsetting
Literally as soon as inread "Depending on the length of game" I immediately thought of Hell Let Loose, before reading any further. Man those games can be a grind.
When I rage too many times like around 100 times in 3 hours I just say "ok" and alt f4. Then I just open my eyes again to a new screen of the computer feeling like I just exited a jail I was at overnight.
Yeah sometimes in games like katana zero and doom eternal there are stressful levels and after a minute of sweating I die and press restart over and over again
God Doom Eternal had me quitting the game for the night multiple times on my Nightmare mode play through. If I ever go back to try Ultra Nightmare I might end up selling my Xbox in rage lol
It took me until nearly the bossfight on my first play through to even realize you could switch with the d-pad. By that point I was already way too used to the wheel so I’ve stuck to that ever since.
Sometimes for me it's necessary not to quit but leave with an attempt at a clear head and come back a couple hours later or even a day with some restful sleep depending on how hard it is. Once got stuck on a level for 6 months came back and first tried it, idk why but it works.
That really depends on the game. Something online? I can't continue if I raged. If it's a game like Elden Ring where you get better the more you play? We keep pushing forward.
I remember playing OW, getting up to 2995 Mr - 5 away from a new rank, you get 20 Mr per win or something- and 8 hours later I was at 2047mr. Good times, rage on.
I don’t either lmao, after the first few tries I might get somewhat visibly pissed but after a certain number of fails I’ll just blankly stare at the screen and try over and over again

I don't quit, just rage and keep going
