            The original purpose of play behavior is self improvement. Games offer a save environment to train for real situations. Thats why u get a dopamine reward. If there was no evolutionary benefit to play you wouldn't naturally like it.

            Entertainment merely hijacked the existing routine with mindless achievement chasing to maximize addiction to milk you.

You are in for a rude awaking and before things blow up in your face out of sheer ignorance, let me fill you in on a tiny secret:

                "Modern Westernized Women" have lost their minds due to a lack of moral direction. 90% of them are damaged goods in more ways than one, but the primary culprit is "College" and social media.

                The feminist propaganda worked wonders, removing it would do wonders for future generations. Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y and Gen Z are fucked and there's nothing we can do about it and that part is true, sure. However, there are some cases where a father or brother or boyfriend or husband can mitigate or prevent the damage and yes, it would be a pain in the ass, but it's worth it.

        Why are women like this?

        Are you new? This has been done several times with different profiles and women always answer positively, even if the guy behind the profile is unfunny as fuck, aggressive, creepy, or straight up insulting they'll still want to meet them to get dicked.
        The overwhelming majority of women using dating apps only match with the top 5-10% of men and don't care how much of a piece of shit they are.

        "women" no its a subset of retards. Just like not everyone is a gacha moron. You looking at outliers by nature of prefiltering women with dating sites. The good ones you wanna fuck arent on those platforms.

      I love playing with my friends, playing against randoms is something I have no interest in, as I'm not particularly competitive, so it takes me a lot of time getting to know someone before I can enjoy trying to beat them. The simple fact that someone is willing to go on the internet and compete automatically proves they're not the sort of people I want to play against. There's nothing wrong with those people, I just play differently.

      Because if you play like a giant tryhard gay, your friends won't play with you. There's no such limitation online.

      "Competitive" vidya are only fun for manchildren. Kids and normal adults just want to jump in and play. Nintendo has zero incentive to pander to pedophiles who spend 12 hours grinding the same game every day (ie, the type of people to engage in online fighting game multiplayer). Especially since you can just look at the sad state of regular fighting games as a perfect example of what happens when you DO cater to people who think grinding an online fighting game is a good way to spend your limited time on earth.

    Thats not the point.
    The point is its easy to give up in matchmaking centric games because ultimately you are playing on your own against the world.
    There is no social contract, effectively you are just playing against a bot that is better than you and often taunts you sometimes in offensive personal ways that wouldnt be allowed without some form of reprimand.

    Matchmaking is a cold soulless experience.
    Its no surprise that the generations raised on it dont even bother socializing in game.

    You completely missed the point.
    What makes multiplayer games less fun is playing with complete strangers who you will never meet again. When you're playing with friends and family, you're bonding. When you're playing with randoms, no one has any incentive to care about anyone else, and so no one does, creating an apathetic if not hostile atmosphere depending on the level of anonymity.

    fps games solved this so long ago with custom servers and having groups who get together to play so you had a wide variety of player skills you will never get that with 1 on 1 fighting games and trying to force the two together will just end in frustrated noobs who drop the game after enough loses and especially so when the playerbase dwindles to the players who are just good at the game.

    I have a friend who had strict parents, they had video games but it was a reward and they couldn't borrow games. His brother went to university, kid was exceptional intelligent and instead of video games the kid elected to get books because their reward-allowence system gave like 30 books for 1 video game. I remember all this because that brother went to university and for the first time got to play games, and his first game was smash bros.

    Fast forward, this kid is like a community legend, but he never completed university, he lives on welfare and is a huge disappointment to the whole family, my friend included.

    That's not the problem at all. The problem is everyone knows every game inside out now, and if you don't keep up on the meta you can't even stand a chance of winning. That's not the fault of online gaming, just the fault of the internet. Brood War was more fun when everyone wasn't following the same build guides, fighting games were more fun when everyone wasn't using the same 1-3 broken/OP characters, and FPS games were more fun when people used whatever weapon they liked best instead of the 1-3 weapons that were shown to be more DPS/lethal than the rest.
    There was always that guy who would dominate, but there would still be a wide range of skill levels and different strategies and ideas at work. Now everyone just plays follow the leader, and trying to have fun with the game instead of just doing the same thing as everyone else is a good way to get kicked out of a game. Add in zoomers deciding to treat nearly every online game as an Among Us clone, and online gaming has become the least fun way to play any game.

    it's not fun with friends either. nothing is less fun than watching other people play smash.
    but go to any vaguely nerdy event, college club, etc, and some fucking imbecile will think it's a great idea to have smash set up so that the 2 people who're good at it can spend an eternity bouncing off one another while everyone else is knocked out immediately because it turns out most people who go to the anime club social spend their time watching anime, not playing smash!

    this reads like i'm mad i suck at smash, but i'm so much more autistic than that: i'm mad because it's bad event planning. i can get better at smash easily, but nothing i do is going to stop people picking a bad game for the kind of people they're going to have at their events.

          It is, though. Rounds don't last that long, so you can cycle in three of the waiters every 5-10 minutes and even while waiting you can make casual conversation with whoever is in this random group of losers or watch how the better people play if you're not that into them. The only way I can see it going poorly is if you get tourneyfags who try to disallow items and fun courses and who are too autistic to know to intentionally play in a silly way after a few victories to keep from hogging.

    honestly, I hate competitive games, not because I was always losing but because as a kid none of my friends wanted to play against me because I always would win to the point where it ruined friendships.

    Like These days I suck ass at games since I stopped 'playing to win' like 13+ years ago but back in the day none of my friends would play shit like advance wars against me because 8 times out of 10 I was the one obviously winning through the whole match, in FPS games like the 1st halo I would win that often that I would be constantly be accused of 'screencheating' just because I had the better aim along with decent gun and map knowledge.

    like I remember one time my friend let me try some tetris knockoff game he had for his DS and I accidentally blew the sky out of his highscore that he was proud of that hard that he banned me from trying the games other modes/highscores and was never able to beat the score I set

      One thing I don't understand in the fgc is how people don't have the fucking ability to adjust their play to their opponent. If I fight against someone on my level sure it's frame trap optimization time, but whenever I fight against a casual I just go for simple punishes and beginner combos so he can catch on and get familiar with what he should do.

    I like Sakurai but his takes about competitive/casual dynamics are just plain incorrect. He's proven wrong by the simple fact that I and tons of other dumbass kids loved playing Melee without knowing a single thing about waveflipping or dashwobbling and what not. Taking a heavy handed approach to deliberately dumbing down mechanics in an attempt to make games accessible ironically has the opposite effect by only alienating the players who want to explore those deeper mechanics. Little Billy doesn't care if those mechanics are there or not, he just thinks "haha, funny kirby hit pikachu haha" Besides, even at the absolute scrubbiest level of like any game, the better player will win more often than not. While I really do have a lot of respect for Sakurai and believe he's done a lot of good, it makes me so mad how wrong he is about this one critical point.

      Melee wasn't online. Brawl and onwards were. Within about a year of Brawl's release, the online play was exclusively Final Destination with only Meta Knight or Snake, and they would do nothing but camp either edge or sit awkwardly in the middle. Of course, Melee would have been even worse.
