I know gamer rage can be hilarious and entertaining to watch, but some people take it too far. I've had friends who throw games, rage quit, or even let it affect personal relationships and it suddenly becomes the dumbest, stupidest, most immature shit. I think you can read a lot into someone's character by how much they are affected by a trivial event in a make believe virtual world.

My tennis coach used to tell me that however hard you hit the ball at the wall during training, however hard it will bounce back at you. So if you decides to rage quit at the wall because you had a bad day, be ready for the probability that the ball bounced back at a certain angle and smash your face in, making you even angrier.

I haven’t seen the whole video yet so forgive me if this is talked about but I really wanted to share: In college one of my capstone classes was “the Psychology of passion” and in that class we talked about how some peoples passion can be detrimental to their mental health because they become “obsessive passions”, in which the person associates their personality and their “self” with the passion. I think this is a huge reason why gamer rage occurs, because most of these people are, as you said, good at the game, and it’s often all they do, this puts it on track to become an obsessive passion, and they associate their “self” with the game AND their PERFORMANCE in it. Which is why some people blow up at such seemingly little things, because to them, it’s damaging their self-image There’s a LOT more to it but that’s the synopsis have a great day everyone and don’t forget the breathe :) TLDR: People get so into the game they associate it with their image of their “self”, and thus poor performance or being out-played damages their “self-image” so they react in an aggressive way People can avoid this by many things but a HUGE help is to have other hobbies, so all of your time and self-image isn’t condensed into one passion. Ok I’m done now everyone have a great day!

Not sure about this only bc my boyfriend used to be D1 in League but stopped playing a long while ago. Now he only gets on at my behest for ARURF or for ARAM. He gets that *gamer rage* and flames teammates for being bad at the game (even though half the time I’m the one doing ass, but he’d never tell me that) or just the game in general for bad balancing. Honestly I hate seeing him get angry and I feel bad for the ppl who he yells at, he’s never like that any other time. But I think Dr. K is right, that it’s the denial of a win he believed he should’ve gotten. He knows he’s good at the game and he barely plays now. I never get angry bc I’m just bad at the game and im not competitive over video games, I play for fun or for events.

I was trying to be as cool as possible, but the Sonic shake was my last straw. What I'm tryna say is "raging" is not a bad thing all over. Sometimes we have moments that bring out the more "carnal" side of us and it's okay. I let it all out, and felt better afterwards. If I had that reaction everytime then that would be a different story lol

I had my experiences with gamer rage with my randoms yelling at me post game in League. I was a completely brand new player to League who wanted to get into what was the trend at my high school back then. It didn't even take one game for me to get on the receiving end of a gamer rage and it was a really rude one at that - he was so ignorant and kept shouting profanities at me and the only thing I could do was let him say what he could say (I stopped emphasizing gaming as a part of my life way back in 2014 and I didn't want a pointless argument with a stranger over a game). I did reply to him respectfully by saying that "it's just a casual game why are you so upset and I'm new to this game so I would like to some pointers." I don't know how this upset him to the point that it brought on a bigger rage I will not discuss here but it got to the point where I had to block him and days later delete League entirely after knowing this is a common theme within a certain demographic.

I used to rage a lot at games, and looking back I realized that it was because I wanted so desperately to win so I could prove to myself and others that I was good. I knew that raging didn't make me feel any better and sure it was funny to some of the friends I played with, but it ended up being more annoying and bad to my mental health than simply being some kind of thing I could use to blow off some steam. It is possible to stop raging at games but it comes as form of practice with yourself in admitting defeat and accepting that there is always room to grow. I feel bad for the people who had to endure my countless fits for nothing and for the people who still do rage, and although it is funny to watch, I still hate how it's just something that not all people can help and that it ruins more than it builds.

The thing about being given the reward and denied the reward makes a lot of sense. There are some games that go against that sort of game design like puzzle games. With puzzle games they don't have any sense of being denied the reward. Any time you get close to solving the puzzle but not quite getting it, it's more a sense of progress. There isn't really any sense of losing. With Dark Souls you may make progress but you will die in the process & then you have to start again. So that's more of a sense of being denied the reward.

I think it's why Battle Royale games blew up in popularity, especially Warzone. If you play CoD multiplayer if you play the regular game modes like team deathmatch a team win doesn't really matter since you get so many of them. But you now have this new game mode where the best people are winning around 50% but a large majority of the player base wins less than 10% of the time. So that rush of excitement when you get to the end of the game and you are trying to win and you either blow it, get killed in some "sweaty" way, or you win can give you a very wide range of emotions.

I participated in this low-key Halo tourney because I enjoyed this particular game-mode, but on a causal level. When it came down to having to actually play well the game had other plans for me and I yelled into my mic so often that looking back at it now I’m so embarrassed because that’s not who I am. I am currently back to having terrible internet and I haven’t touched my PC in months.

I think extreme gamer rage is encouraged by the climate of ultra competitive multiplayer games that has been cultivated over the last decade or so. We need more games with healthy communities centered around social gameplay. People will still be toxic of course but we need games that don’t encourage toxicity or even make players feel isolated from the community.
@Taima
@Taima 2 жыл бұрын
I wouldn’t say it’s encouraged because that would imply that it’s a desired thing by the community/concept as a whole. What I would say is that it can make environments and scenarios that are /conducive/ to more frequent instances of gamer rage, which is similar but doesn’t place any intent on anyone. I know there are exceptions like that where Charlie was talking about the cod leagues of yore that would encourage trash talking, but that hardly speaks for gaming competitions as a whole.

As someone who used to rage quite frequently as a teenager and still on rare occasion now as a adult I can confidently say if you rage at a game to the point your causing damage to yourself or things around you, that has nothing to do with games that you having a lack of control over your emotions. Its a temporary burst of emotions that you were unable to fight back with logic such as weighing the cost of the item your about to destroy. I'm glad I was able to dial back my emotions as I got older. It saved me money and it genuinely made my life alot simpler and easier both in and out of video games. Plus I've noticed I enjoyed games more when I try my best and I am satisfied with the outcome no matter win or lose.

My sister never played cod with me after our first match. The other kids in the neighborhood;when we would play they would literally fucking scream and curse at me because they never killed me once. I found it all comical, but they just didn't have the mindset for controls for that game like I did, AND that's why I don't play any first person shooters anymore, Except battlefield, because they have good bullet drop. You have to aim like 2 inches up every town away, then you have to calculate wind. Every once in awhile I get someone messaging me talking trash because I killed them from across the 3 town battlefield with iron sights.

It all comes down to people not dealing with the lack of control they are experiencing. Whether that be from being in a team of people who don't listen or from you making a mistake and trying to then remedy the mistake, with everything going down hill regardless of how well you think you are doing. When you are calm and in control, everything flows. When you are agitated or uncomfortable, you are facing something unexpected and you've lost control. Being agitated is one of the first steps to learning. Most people don't see it as learning and instead, take the first emotion that arises, which is always anger and use it as an escape. The same concept applies to almost every instance in life. And then some people are legit just toxic which is usually determined by outside influences. Lack of control just fuels that fire. The thrill is in the hunt, not the kill. It's not some hidden secret that humans enjoy the journey of hunting rather than the reward. Hence the denial of the reward being addictive.

When you lose that aspect in an online game you get frustrated. It's why I only play online games with friends or just not at all so I can feel like as a team we're doing something. Normally prevents tilt. This is coming from someone who just graduated with a masters in Game Design/Development too, it was one of the first lessons we were taught about the mentality of gamers.

It's the reason fast learners have such a good time playing games and why online games are hard is because enemies are real players with thoughts and are going to be erratic. Whereas AI is very predictable, it's why you'll see speedrunners get mad at RNG but not when they get killed my an enemy in souls games. Randomness and unpredictability makes games difficult and upsetting because your control is gone, but predictability and ease of play do the exact opposite. That's why I use walkthroughs or watch a game get played before I play it so I know how to prepare for stuff. Or why I get meta knowledge of a game so I can know how encounters should play out.

I think one reason gamer rage gets so intense is because video games are something that you're able to manipulate the outcome of. If you're watching a horror movie and you think "don't go into the shed the killer is there" and they go into the shed, you'll just think "wow that was a dumb decision" and move on. If you're playing a team game and you know someone is waiting behind a corner, and tell your team, but one of your teammates turn that corner and gets killed, then that snowballs to you guys losing the round, that was something where you did everything in your power to make the outcome favor you, but an outside influence (the teammate turning the corner you told them an enemy was at) prevented you from the outcome you wanted, despite the fact you had done everything in your power to prevent it from happening. It's something I see a lot in MMOs. Some people can't stand raiding in MMOs, and they tend to give the exact reason of "it's not fun when you do everything perfectly but the entire raid team dies because one person messing up." Games are a special type of medium where you have direct influence over the outcome of a story/fight/match, and getting something that isn't your desired outcome due to something you can't control, in a medium where you always have control over the outcome, is probably a big factor in gamer rage. Plus, there's probably some subconscious stuff going on where the fact that video games are something you're inherently meant to have full control of will give someone a larger ego than they normally have, which is probably where you see people screaming at each other about "you're trash" and whatnot.

I had a hella good run and i was basically doing pubs at high diamond and running lobbies like no problem. Thing is i didn’t make a single buck. I was 14 dominating lobbies and doing donation go4s as a “no mic player” bcuz of esl rules, and obviously i was thought of as trash literally just they’re best throwaway, they had even moved my branch from golf to fox because i was running with 4 diamonds being a high plat 1 finally having a team to play with, not solo dealing with people and enemies. So ego pushed me out of their team eventually, and the day i hit my first j i got kicked.

What's interesting is if you read the book how to win friends and influence people, (very good book, you should read it it will change your life) it says on how people naturally want to be right and if you tell them otherwise, they dig in their heels, so instead of saying that you can give them options, or give them reasons on why it's good without being condescending, you be understanding from their situation and show genuine appreciation for them, and they won't rage

I stopped raging at games a while ago. Actually, the only time I ever raged during a game was when I was emulating Super Mario World on my brother's laptop. I couldn't beat one of those "Cool, Tubular, etc" levels and I slammed my fist on the keyboard. Somehow, that fucked up a part of the display. My family was pretty poor, so we couldn't just buy another laptop so easily. I felt so bad I stopped playing for like 2 weeks. Now, if a game is too frustrating I move on to something else. Entertainment shouldn't be stressful.

i used to vent by cursing a lot but when i switched to just turning the game off immediately after a defeat and putting on any video on youtube to distract myself it helped a lot more. the game still left a bad taste in my mouth but it didn't last as long anymore

Doctor K's depiction of the tier 3 pub star actually hits so close to home. I was one of those players in LoL (have since quit since last season) but man does it really fucking suck giving it your all and just BARELY not making it. He was right on the spot. I had to give everything to get as high as I did and all that just to face the most insurmountable wall I have ever seen in my entire life. He's spot on with his take.

Positivity 100% helps, i often try and keep the peace on my team cuz if people start fighting were almost 100% likely to loose cuz were fighting each other, not the enemy. Also negativity alwase leads to negativity. If you act negatively that will carry into the next game therefore "blinding you with rage" somewhat therefore, even if you might want to smash the controller, sometimes it's better to take a deep breath and focus on the positives.

I have the same mindset. Raging or getting toxic is pretty pointless and it increases our chances to lose if everyone on our team starts freaking out. We are only sabotaging ourselves if we let negativity take over instead of focusing on taking objectives and do what we can to win. It's very rare that I rage these days. I only rage when my team is so bad a literal monkey could play better than them. There's no way to win such a match anyway so 100% we are gonna lose anyway. But also when I get such a team I wonder how it's even possible to be so bad at a video game. I wasn't even that bad when I was a newbie to said game so it shouldn't be possible that I got a whole team that plays like they have severe brain damage... But it happens once in a while and that's when I start to question reality like "WTF is going on am I in a simulation???" LoL needs to display peoples ages in their profiles or something cuz if I start raging at a 12 year old I would feel bad. But I have seen people my age (28) play like they have brain damage so I'm not too sure age has anything to do with skill... To some degree I can understand if someone under 15 plays worse cuz their brain isn't as developed and their english skills are not as good either.

Gamer rage is like a special kind of comedy and yet state of regret. It's like you're throwing a controller at something expensive and having a reality check play in your mind seconds after doing it, but realizing it's funny playing the recording back and not ruining you completely the next day you see it uploaded. It's like a "I hate throwing things at things I have to replace, but laughing at how ridiculous i acted" moment.

My brothers became super verbally abusive when it came to gamer rage. Especially the brother who was a d*ck to me growing up. If the game lagged, it was the sibling's fault for watching. If the character died? Again, the sibling's fault. For me, I eventually just stopped watching and started playing games for myself. I was pretty good at Diablo 1 and 2, but never got into Starcraft.

My kill count from my teenage years is 3 GameCube controllers(try hard melee player who’s crap at melee), 2 game boy advance SPs (pretty sure it was banjo and kazooie pilot academy…) 1 Nintendo DS (probably some Pokémon bullshit) a PSP (monster hunter freedom unite to this day can boil my piss in the arctic) and a 3DS. I’m thankfully much more patient and reserved since I left my teen years but I was a raging menace for years lol

The most common rage I see from people I'm around is not rage against other people, because we don't often play competitive games. It's rage against purposely poor game design meant to curb the players against the ai that they couldn't bother to make intelligent enough to play against. Or, in some cases, games that aren't _purposely_ made poorly, but willingly. Ignoring major flaws and instead pushing out more buggy content. And that shit I can agree with, even if I get more annoyed by them than the game itself.

I can get being upset at a game, that’s part of the experience. I’ve had quite a few heated one-sided discussions with Elden Ring myself. But I just can’t see myself, as an adult, getting this enraged and toxic over a game. When I was a stupid 13 year old, sure, but as a grown man? There’s no excuse for behaving like this. If you do this, you are literally mentally a child, and you need to wake the fuck up.

Gamer Rage taught me the word "Asshat". It was a clip of a kid calling in to a help line over his Counterstike game and his laggy connection that resulted in him missing kills, he breaks down crying _"They don't die! I click on they DON'T DIE!!! 😭"_ . I found it in 2005 and then never encountered it again.

Not videogames, but with paintball, I joined a team in college. I am now joining a team in the MSXL. You gain skill much faster when you are able to have formal practices, proper coaching, running drills, and really analyze and work on your skills and especially teamwork. As an individual, i am not that good. When i play as part of a team, we work together as a unit. We know each others strengths and weaknesses. We know how to work together. Playing recreational can only get your so far in terms of skill level.
