Why do people that "have a life" suck so bad at video games?

"I have a life" is not an excuse. Just be honest with yourself and admit that. Stop blaming the wife, kids and job for your poor hand to eye coordination or problem solving skills. I absolutely suck at Madden. Have no patience with Dark Souls and I suck at Fifa. Its cool though, you wont find me actively playing those types of games let alone post on their forums about how my "life" is the reason I throw 30 interceptions in a game. Almost every great person in history had a wife, kids and a job. They accomplished great things under even greater stress. Why cant you stay positive in a crucible match? Because you suck at video games and dont want to admit it. Would you try out for your favorite Soccer team? Would you attempt to outdrive a formula 1 racer? Would you enter the olympics with the hopes of winning a medal? Not if you knew you sucked at it. Im not saying you cant play the game......just that you suck horribly at it. Stop using life as an excuse and just admit to yourself that you suck at video games. Its cool, its only a game designed for children over the age of 13. How much should that matter to someonenwith a life?

  • I've had a life for 54 years. A GREAT life. Beautiful wife for over 30 years now. Both daughters Suma Cum Laude graduates of major private universities. (one is a damn fine destiny player). At one time I was king nerd at the arcades, but now I accept the limitations of my gaming skills due to my age. Even though the reflexes have slowed a bit and the competitiveness has lost it's edge, I'd be hard pressed to find another Guardian that's having more fun.
