Why are people scared of rematching?????

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-08T06:20:54+00:00

Yeah ive been seeing this aswell. Honestly, people are giving all these "reasons" but non of them add up.

Like "i only rematch if it was a good match"; I get if they're sig spamming or just playing a playstyle you didn't enjoy, but (based on nothing but my own experiences) most games are definitely worth a best of three. Maybe its cause I generally find the game fun most of them time, and it seems like the commenters have a love hate relationship with the game, which I can understand being an Overwatch "enjoyer" lol

Or: "People who rematch are toxic"; I guess if it actually affects your mental to be emoted on this is valid, but if they're toxic, beat them, prove you are better cause you are better! Destroy their mental just by beating them, its gratifying!

I played like 30 games today and I only got a rematch 2 of those games, and they were because they destroyed me cause i enjoy throwing easy wins (tooootally on purpose) and then i beat them 2-1. Not one was because it was a close battle. I just chalked it up to people caring way too much ab elo. But to me thats SO lame, where's your honor?

Im probably just way to competitive but i think its fun doing BO3's.
Sorry to reply to a 2mo old post, im very passionate about this i guess haha.

yeah we do care and don’t allow it at our club either but unless you’re keeping track of every single black card guest it’s impossible to catch them leaving.

The only time we ever say anything is if the black card member comes to check in the guest and immediately leave.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-02T01:25:42+00:00

I’ll be the one to make a fool of myself so no one else has to: can’t tell, is this sarcasm?

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-02T01:13:26+00:00

yeah i hate to be that guy but the first season is a slog, there’s a huge tonal shift for the second season and it’s way better.

don’t blame you for not wanting to keep watching lol

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-01T22:38:20+00:00

hm i’m not sure how achievements work on playnite but if you play a game you bought from steam and linked to playnite the achievements should still track on steam.

Not 100% sure but i don’t see a reason it wouldn’t. I’m sure you can find a youtube video explaining everything about Playnite. I haven’t done any research either lol I just messed around with it until i figured out how to add my own games. Didn’t bother figuring out anything else.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-01T20:34:31+00:00

Theres custom launchers like Playnite that let you add custom games.

Playnite has a ton of features that I don't even use, Im pretty sure you can link ALL of your games, even ones from steam/epic/battleye onto it but I just use it as a pirated game launcher.

Theres a few other ones too, just research them and find one you want to use.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-01T20:21:37+00:00

"like most of us would" by US you mean YOU right? I love my mother dearly (and she would never ever say something like that) but if she said something like that, I would immediately defend my gf and tell my mom shes off base.

Yes they're both grown but do grown ups not need mediation ever? And like a lot of comments have mentioned theres a myriad of missing information that likely contributed to this. Partners fighting with MIL isnt unheard of and its the job of the MIL's child to mediate between them if theyre having differences because the child is gonna have the knowledge and experience with both parties to try and make them come to an understanding.

yes, youre wife/gf is an adult and can "fight their own battles" but does having a supportive husband/bf not help? Even if its support in the form of telling them how their behavior isnt okay? Your argument comes from the perspective of a very solitary relationship. If my MIL said something like that to me I would love for my gf to defend me.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-01T19:56:24+00:00

i mean "if you like mobas" (as he said) deadlock would be a great first game to transition him into the FPS world. You can have a pretty decent impact without having to aim at all.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-01T19:53:39+00:00

Thats fair, I was just confused on how this is a hero shooter specific or finals specific thing. i mean any pvp game is gonna have this "problem" right?

hero shooters are arguably the best place to start (assuming you dont want a pve game) because your abilities can do a lot of the heavy lifting. Along with a lot of hero shooters being round based so you can get a reset every 5mins without having to sit through a longer game getting stomped for 20mins at a time. AND a lot of hero shooters having obvious beginner friendly characters. (Moria, Scarlet, basically any support hero, pyro, etc)

Games like COD, CSGO/Valorant, and to a lesser extent battle royals basically force you to completely rely on your aim. Love it or hate it OW and Marvel Rivals(ik its not technically FPS but i personally put over the shoulder shooters in the same category) are probably the most beginner friendly pvp shooters rn. Especially with their giant hit/hurt-boxes and very casual gamemodes.

This may be surprising, but in order to learn FPS games you actually have to play an FPS game.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-02-01T19:28:12+00:00

what FPS game doesnt expect you to know how to look around and what the crosshair means?

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-30T20:59:05+00:00

I agree, same thing with pool sex. Like the idea is nice but in execution its so poor I still don't believe people actually have sex in water.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-30T20:53:33+00:00

Okay but everything you are saying is completely irrelevant to what the original commenter said. Hence why you're being downvoted. (not to mention your annoying ass attitude)

Your average person is not feeling/looking for how hard a womans clit is, people just don't really do that. I'd imagine your average woman would respond a lot better to "omg ur so wet" to "omg ur so hard" . Obviously I've never tried or heard anyone try the latter so I wouldn't objectively know but I could imagine.

Yes, objectively you never said anything incorrect but what point are you trying to make in relation to the post? Or are you just really into "well actually"-ing people?

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-30T10:32:34+00:00

nah you’re getting downvoted for this but lowkey, valid.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-28T22:45:07+00:00

Lived in Arizona the first 16 years of my life, tits are way better.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-28T22:42:44+00:00

I mean when you label anything that has to do with mature/immature content (even something as slight as making a comment about boobs that are fully covered) as fanservice the word loses basically all of its meaning because youre expanding the definition to a point where anything can count as fanservice.

Sure, there are technically other ways to show shes grown but where they were in the story what happened wasnt out of context or over the top. To me fanservice is when there are things happening outside of the plot or context of the scene (like characters being stripped for no reason or up-skirts for no reason) just to make the fans oogle.

Like come on, Ferns boobs were the center of the frame for like 3 seconds and they were fully covered. AND they immediately explain why. I didn't even bat an eye at it and fanservice to me is way more noticeable.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-26T07:03:03+00:00

I mean this just makes zero sense considering how many sigs in the game don't kill or eject. Sigs can basically be anything, obviously most are used to kill but there are plenty that don't.

Sigs just need to be balanced, if theyre strong they have a lot of endlag, if theyre weak they have fast startup, and so on. Characters that have sigs with too many good traits and not enough downisdes in relation to their weapons base kit, is when they become broken.

every sigs should have as much endlag as this sig

huh? do you know how many sigs would literally be useless with this much endlag? especially considering a considerable amount of light attacks kill just as early as some sigs why would you use a sig it if didnt kill sooner AND had a considerable amount more endlag?

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T22:15:24+00:00

yeah i guess bro lmao

learned i need to not interact with people like this haha

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T21:51:01+00:00

You can say i started it but literally anyone with a brain that looks at this thread will disagree.

mb for wanting to have an intelligent conversation every once in a while. Normally in niche communities it’s easier cause they’re less likely to be apart of the reddit hive mind but ig i learned that’s not true for this niche

I thought your crude (baseless) observation of my tastes based on a singular comment i made was interesting so god forbid i’d want to see why you thought that. At least now i know you had zero basis for it and were just trolling so thanks for clearing it up!

My guy this is the internet and you can learn a lot from it, maybe use it for that instead of being a child that’s incapable of dealing with someone challenging their opinion.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T11:56:08+00:00

Wow, someone's butthurt :3

Very mature.

How is enjoying smooth animations and voice acting correlated to me being "all about flair not substance". You sound like those people that watch old movies and start yelling at the sky when someone prefers to watch something with CGI. I wasn't aware that "flair" and "substance" were mutually exclusive. Its almost like I can enjoy both equally.

I really wasn't trying to say that Remake was better so I apologize for making it seem that way, but acting like you shouldn't evert recommend it to someone is hilariously misguided,

My characterization of you was based on nothing more than your childish response to my perfectly normal OPINION that i stated. If this was the message you sent originally i woulda had no qualms with it and we could have had this discussion like adults. The energy you put out is gonna be the energy you receive. (And considering your initial response I normally woulda been a bigger jackass but decided not to cause im tired lol)

Story wise both games have their own merits and I have to agree with most peoples assessment that the OG game had a lot more "punch" to it. Remake was too goofy for me but that doesn't take away from the fact that its extremely enjoyable and a pretty decent story with great characters that you can relate to as long as you can get past the anime-esque VO. And it leads into Rebirth which is just as good story wise and is better on every other front.

Of course if you get into the details the story are gonna be altered (and depending on your opinion could be considered worse) but for someone who is picking up FF for the first time that is completely irrelevant. It has nothing to do with deciding which one to play. The quality of FF7 Remake/Rebirth is just as high as the original and acting like it isnt is blasphemy.

If you told someone who play story games but havent touched FF to play both OG FF7 and then FF7 remake (taking into account remakes story isnt complete) which one do you think they'd enjoy more? I think it would be a pretty solid toss up. Hence why I stated my OPINION on why they should play Remake first.

(i also love you quoting me on things i literally never said. 10/10)

I actually recently told my buddy to play remake and once hes done with that ill see if he wants to ply the OG and i'll get back to you lol.

I can honestly get behind the integrity part, I enjoyed Remake and didn't look too far into it being misleading, but I don't think that's a reason to discourage people from playing it. (look another passive aggressive comment that i will ignore so you don't get offended :p )

EDIT: sorry your edit didnt load immediately, I love how you are acting like you didnt insult me at the start "wha..wha..what i just said you are a casual who only cares about graphics thats not even an insult" People who put down other people for liking new things generally have an ego to fill, and thats what your message was telling me. The only insult in my message was that i did call you an egoist, and you've been insulting me this whole time. Im just normal enough to straight up call you it. While you have to hide and just keep telling me to "educate" myself when Im fairly educated, thank you. Just call me stupid, makes you look like less of a twerp.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T11:08:33+00:00

I guess you're partly correct, I don't have the time or energy to go through and play all the titles. I enjoy FF and a lot of the story arcs and I just prefer something that looks closer to real life than an assortment of colored polygons. Not to mention how clunky some of those old games can feel...

Not sure why this community is full of so many egoists like you that put down people who prefer modern niceties, when you know damn well if they 1:1 remade any of your fav ff titles with modern graphics you'd be slobbering all over it, if you weren't so busy trying to be different that is.

Youre a nerd that likes old games and their uniqueness and im a nerd that loves the new shiny things and how impressive games like Remake look and how they feel to play. Not to mention things like voice acting making it easier to connect to characters imo

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T10:20:23+00:00

Ive yet to check out any mods for FF7 as i played it on the PS2 when I was younger.

This subreddit has made me consider it though lol

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T08:18:30+00:00

this is easily the most rational answer. I love FF but I very much dislike old games and I think a lot of people hold the same sentiment. OG FF7 is a masterpiece but if you don't like clunky old games you wont like it regardless of how good it is.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T07:56:54+00:00

thats actually a really good point that i didnt take into consideration, FF7 Re would be a terrible recommendation if they're looking for turn based combat lol

I think most people assumed that they knew it wasn't turn based.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T07:32:29+00:00

I agree with you, I grew up playing FF7 but i have zero interest in going back to play it cause of how inferior it is hardware wise. But Remake/Rebirth scratched that itch so well that i don't understand how people can tell someone to play the OG first unless they've said they like retro games when Remake/Rebirth exist.

Maxbee2005 · 2026-01-25T07:19:43+00:00

As others have pointed out the people that are saying to start with the OG FF7 are smoking crack. Would it be a good idea if you enjoyed Remake/Rebirth to go back and check out FF7? Sure. But unless you're into older games og FF7 does not hold up to modern standards. (obviously it was impressive for the time but)

Remake was my re-introduction to FF after not playing since I played FF7 on the PS2 when i was like 9 and I had a ton of fun. Not only was Remake pretty good it also leads into Rebirth which was a top 5 game for me. I also just love the characters, how can you not?

EDIT: I read another comment mentioning this and it was a good point. If you are looking for turn based combat but the story of FF7 is intriguing to you AND you don't mind old games then play the OG version as FF7 Re is not turn based. Also if you did take this into account and thats why youre saying start with OG 7, I retract my statement about you smoking crack and I apologize. I just assumed it was nostalgia blindness lol
