Are you the one that can't stand losing to another player? Fighting, fps, RTS, speed-run whatever
Just got to be the better than your rivals.

I love fighting games and stuff like UT, but I've learned to be more leaned back about that kind of thing, if I let it get to me it stops being fun.

One-sided losses really don't teach me anything other than that it's a bad idea to even try if I'm not top tier from day 1.

I'm pretty competitive. Not too crazily but its satisfying to be on the upper echelons. I know I don't have the time or money to climb to the absolute top without screwing up my life so I stop there, but its satisfying to be actually good at video games. It also fucking sucks to lose obviously.

The feeling of being impotent against these people when i play the game makes me wish i had never touched it, because now i know i will never be the best without losing my soul.

I try to win but if I don't it's not a big deal, I just try to learn and adapt if possible, I never try to make the other person have a bad time or feel bad for losing themselves. The ultimate goal is to have fun passing time and testing skill with other people in a fair and sports-like manner. Respect the game, the players, and most of all the technique.

I have very little experience with real fighting games so it's entirely possible if I'm way off the mark. But yeah, it's pretty neat if the player genuinely likes the character they play but then it seems way too easy to use it to shield your ego if you're bad or just mediocre. If you lose you can go "well I lost because I played a bad character" but if you win you have twice the opportunity to gloat even if you were playing against a bad player because you were playing with a bad character. It just seems like the mindset can get very cancerous very easily.

I play for fun and I hate competitiveness. While this sounds like it excludes skill from the equation - it doesn't.
If the enemy player isn't on par with me (be it because he is too bad or too good) it's not fun. If getting better requires learning stale meta and then repeating it over and over until it's muscle memory then I don't do that either. If another party insists on setting up a stage with arbitrary rules that would define a winner, instead of just playing the game indefinitely, then I either refuse or smack the shit out of them depending on how confident I feel.
Winning in competitions does nothing for me and the ones that could bring something, like money, require skill that takes an unimaginable amount of dedication that I don't hold for any game I've played. Same thing applies to speedruns, it's just not fun to continue playing games that you've lost interest in, even if you are trying to show that you are the best.

Never minded winning or losing, and back when I had friends, I'd play multiplayer stuff with them, but nowadays, I haven't had any interest. Every multiplayer community that I've seen, at least, screeches constantly about how this should be nerfed and that should be buffed, and once that happens, then something else needs to be buffed and nerfed. It just seems like people who are really into multiplayer are never happy. Even something more casual, like Splatoon, all I hear is about how X stage is bad and Y weapon is overpowered. It's a damn shame.

I don't play TF2 competitively because the competitive community (6v6 atleast) seems to be the most no-fun subcommunity in all of tf2, but i mostly dominate pubs so that i usually don't play as good as i could. Most of the time i meet a 'pro' scout that runs around meatshotting everyone, at those times i'll be a happy lad because i finally met someone who's going to be a threat in 1v1 confrontations, and so i always go for them first if i meet one. For those who don't play TF2, 1v1 confrontations are always dominated by Soldiers, Scouts and demomen, those 3 are powerhouse offense classes with each of them having a good balance of firepower flexibility and movement.
Either way i long for a pub match where all of the players are above-average players, most of the time the players are goddamn retarded they fell for the same trick 3 times.
