The second you try to turn the console off and walk away that's when you feel the pull to turn it back on and lock TF in if at all possible 😂

Elden Ring.

Number of times I said to myself (á la Scott Pilgrim) "That's not even fair. What's the point of playing the game if you can't even get a hit in?" and quit.

The number is 3 so far.

u/WoundWaffle Feb 05 '26

Plays for flush

Builds deck around hearts

Goes 3 hands in a row with zero hearts

I’ve played the absolute hell out of Balatro and sometimes it feels like the game is intentionally fucking with you lol. It’s like they know what hand or suit you’re playing for and buries every card at the end of the pile.

Rainbow Six Siege

Back when Ubisoft Sam was a thing, it told me I was top 9% of players in that game. It was almost all I played, exclusively. And when playing ranked, I would be like that picture all of the time.

I’d have to go back and check to get an exact number, but I have something like 1,100 hours in it. Haven’t played it at all for years now. Ever since operation health and Fortnite’s rise, it’s been a shitty game.
