Confessions of a gamer

A lot of times when I read the comments under a YouTube video I can't help but notice that some people say that the rage in the video is fake. He or she is only doing it for likes and/or subscribers. But is that really true? Can you fake rage? Well you can fake rage but when you're really pissed off then that is something you'll recognize, because people that scream bloody murder at every set back are more drama queens than actual ragers! Raging is easy? If you don't hold back then it can be easy. There is often that voice in your head or that feeling inside that tells you to not lose your temper, to stay cool and not get angry. For some people this can be enough to keep them from losing their shit and then there are people that just completely ignore that voice and go mad with anger when they have a setback. When I really want to win in a multiplayer match or make progress in single player I get annoyed much easier, because there is more at stake and when you lose ...

I know this sounds weird but it's actually a good thing because now the developers can put more time into the game and hopefully get all the bugs and glitches out. Hopefully this gives us, the players, a good game that is a lot of fun to play! But it's still rough because I was really looking forward to play Red Dead Redemption 2... Delaying a game is a good thing? If you've ever played a game that was rushed, for example a movie game that had to come out at the same time the movie came out, or played a game that is just full of bugs and glitches then you know how frustrating these games can be. I would rather wait another year and have a good game in my hands than get the game on the original release date and have a broken piece of shit game. It's a disappointment but one that you'll get over eventually, it's not like Red Dead Redemption is the only interesting game that's coming out this year and you could also think of saving some money on one game an...

When you record a video you sometimes say things that aren't really nice and there are even times you say things aren't accepted. So it's up to you to decide if you want to keep that in the video or not. The safe choice is to just cut it out or bleep yourself but there are people that like to keeps things raw and just keep everything in it. This does raise a question... Can you say something bad or not in your videos? I think YouTube can be incredibly childish about certain things and certain games are also very lame about certain words. For example when I wanted to name my group in Injustice 2 Daemons from Hell the game just refused that because apparently hell is a bad word. I don't know if this is just an American thing, Americans are really weird about these things, or if people around the word think it's a bad word. The strangest thing is that it's fine to kill people in a game, sometimes with extreme executions and even the moments where you can go on ...

Have you ever played Overwatch? No? Then you probably don't know how lame some people are and how stupid a game can be. For example trying to get those 'free' loot boxes can be such a frustrating and annoying experience, no matter how experienced you go into arcade mode you always come out as a broken and annoyed gamer. What's wrong with arcade in Overwatch? You could say what isn't wrong with the arcade game mode in Overwatch. I play arcade for one simple reason, earn the three loot boxes with a total of nine wins and get the hell out! Except winning nine matches can be a real frustrating experience when everytime you play a match you get people in your team that pick useless characters or character combinations. Yes I'm talking about Hanzo, Genji and Widowmaker combination or the all support combination (Mercy, Ana, Zenyatta, Symmetra and Lucio). Maybe against a terrible team you might win but against any team that just plays the objective and isn't fu...

I was really excited about this game, not only because of the idea (play as Jason and hunt down the counselors or as one of the counselors try to survive while you're being hunted by Jason) in this game but also because of the videos I saw on YouTube. The game looks like a lot of fun and so when I finally bought it this weekend I was in for a nasty surprise, it doesn't work! What's wrong with the game? From my experience matchmaking in the game on the Xbox One is completely broken. I don't know if it's the same for Playstation 4 and pc gamers. When you click on quickplay for a match you can wait for twenty minutes and still not get into a match, yes I actually waited that long just to see if I would get a match eventually. But the connectivity with this game is also very unstable. On Sunday I could barely get connected with the game server, which meant I couldn't even get into the main menu. The only time I actually got into a match it was laggy and event...

Are you ever too old for Lego movies, well maybe for some Lego movies but not for the Lego Batman movie! This is the type of movie that isn't just fun to watch, it's hilarious! A movie that doesn't take itself too serious and isn't afraid to do some crazy things, but at the same time keep the story and characters interesting. Not bad for a Lego movie, I'd say some movies could learn a thing or two from this movie! Best Batman is Lego Batman? There have been a lot of actors that played the role of Batman and most of them weren't even bad, yes  that even includes the weird movies Batman Forever and Batman & Robin, but you have to admit that Will Arnett is an amazing Batman. Ok he just does the voice but he does it well! Eventhough his Batman is a bit of a dick he does have his charm and in this movie Batman discovers that things can be better and that he can be a better person. Of course that doesn't mean he learns this right away, no that goes through...

I hate multiplayer achievements, they require not just your skill but also the right situation provided by other people. Of course other people aren't going to give you that achievement, I definitely don't expect nor want them to do that, but there are also people that make certain you can't get a certain achievement. These people are going to be you biggest enemy if you want to get multiplayer achievements and there's very little you can do about that. Why do some people try to hinder you from getting an achievement? I don't think people always try to be an asshole, sometimes you just bump into eachother and that will then usually end badly for one of the two. It's also your job to defeat other people online, ok maybe not your job but other people on your team will expect you to do that. But there are also people that will go out of their way just to make certain that you don't get a certain achievement. I discovered this when playing as Sombra in Overw...
