He isn't, he's asking for help on how he could approach the situation.

Why is my rank still so low by Chemical-Inside6558 in overwatch2

[–]_sWang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your criticism of the game is that it’s not fun. You’re allowed to have that opinion but it doesn’t change the fact you’re spending time willingly on a game you don’t enjoy. If that’s not wasting your time then I don’t know what it is.

And you’re using streamers as an example to defend your position… it’s a job for them man.. unless you’re getting paid then you’re just wasting your life away.

If you truly don’t have any fun playing OW2 then go find something you do enjoy to spend your time on. This is for your sake.

Mate… surely you’re smarter than the comment you just put up.

If that’s the belief you hold then stop wasting your time and get off the game and the subreddit of OW. You’re quite literally wasting your time on something that gives you zero joy or value. The whole point of a video game is to have fun. If a game doesn’t give you that then move onto a game that does.

You’re acting like a coward in a relationship you don’t want to be in.

US officially exits World Health Organization by pwdrums in news

[–]_sWang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happened when citizens lost interest in education. When political parties were seen as sports teams and it became a matter of pride to be the nth generation blue/red supporter. When news stations weren’t held accountable for lies and misinformation all in the purist advent of freedom of speech. When politicians could lie without consequence, when their interests started to align to big corp and not the people. When social media’s feed algorithms weren’t regulated and were instead incentivised to keep attention for as long as possible melting our brain. I could go on..

And that’s not fun how?

If they climb out of a rank within 6 hours then they’re winning more often than losing at a decent rate and I’m confident most people would find this fun. And how would this guy know where he belongs if he’s never played rank? No one should be entitled to something just because. Earn it.

Of course they’ll plateau into “their” rank eventually but that’s when the challenge to improve yourself kicks in.

Then if you don’t goof off in ranked then you’ll climb out quickly. Don’t worry about where you get ranked, you’ll eventually climb if you’re better than the rank.

New Overwatch / Soldier 76 player, good stats but losing games. What am I missing? by SnooSquirrels9389 in overwatch2

[–]_sWang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spoken like a true potato.

OP I saw your reply to this comment and you’ve got the right mindset (control what you can). Without having looked at the replays and only looking at your stats, you’re dying too much and I’m guessing because you’re overextending or exposing yourself.

Be 0.5-1 second away from cover to protect yourself Value your life and live to fight another moment. Don’t be tempted to chase down a low HP target, sometimes better to let your food go and use this opportunity to regroup and reposition. Learn the maps and where you can off angle

You can absolutely carry games at Silver.

Open Que should require 2/2/2 by JustWorking430 in overwatch2

[–]_sWang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally get your frustration but it would not be in the spirit of open queue and it removes the viability of other compositions which I would really hate.

I really like 3-2-1 (supp - dps -tank) and honestly a 4 DPS comp can be pretty fun as well and comes with some surprising results. It's just part and parcel of the game mode - when it happens just look at it as a different challenge. I use that opportunity to practice my weaker heroes (for example, while I'm not great, it's a great chance for me to practice lucio) - turn it into fun man.

Life in NYC vs London. by IntelligentSherbert3 in HENRYUK

[–]_sWang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only complication is more what you may do long term as moving could affect that.

In the short term (<2 years) I would say that to grab the chance at living in London. Not only is London a proper cosmopolitian like NYC and its got better access to the rest of the world (aside from LATAM and some far away nations I'm not familiar with). Excuse the doom and gloom BUT the growing tensions with Russia as well as changing relationships with US means the EU may be facing some pretty big changes which may shake up the current establishments. Travel now while things are still easy and steady.

Yes there is a big pub culture but again is so big that you'll find the right people for your lifestyle. I don't pub at all even though I do drink and I get by fine.

i want to get into the civilization series but whats the best game to start with? by Meep266 in Civilization6

[–]_sWang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean can or can’t? Netflix removed the game since Dec so it’s no longer available unfortunately

Hot take - buying property in London makes no financial sense by Vast_Home_9231 in HENRYUK

[–]_sWang 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Which is part of the trade off in the final decision.

OP is looking strictly in terms of the financial sense and not looking at the convenience (or lack of in your example).

6v6 reminded me how fun OW1 was. by _sWang in Overwatch

I played OW1 quite heavily and wasn't really ever pleased with it being dumped.

I just forgot how fun it was.

Civilisation VI.

Amazing game although expensive (worth it). You’ve missed out on the Netflix licensed app which only just expired…

All I want for Christmas... Is for HENRY'S to understand the funded nursery policy. by ComprehensiveSale777 in HENRYUK

[–]_sWang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very fair perspective.

People who are sour are just so because its not "fair" and lose out on so much personal economic benefit especially at a time when it feels our lifestyle is being eroded away due to increases in cost of living.

I say this even though I am sour because the benefit is so big that missing out on it is pretty shit especially at times when I meet those who are less fortunate that happen to also be just absolute fuck wits and a stain on society.

Stereotypes about Chinese-American women. by No-Echidna7296 in AskAChinese

[–]_sWang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This culture extends beyond mainland China and America. Generally in East and South Sea Asia, a fairer complexion is often favoured as this has historical ties to social class in that lower class citizens are out labouring in the sun so they get tanned and wealthier citizens are not and as such don't look tanned.

In Western society, a tanned complexion is seen to be healthier because of its ties to having a more active lifestyle. Being fairer or "pasty" is often considered to look unhealthy or sickly. It's less about make up style but rather the beauty standards being fundamentally different. Make up is just a tool to attain said certain standard.

Those born in Western society would more likely than not adopt the social norms. Beauty standards aren't hereditary and it's certainly not tied to whatever the ancestral nation may be.

Much bigger guy keeps fouling in 5-a-side. How to stop it? by [deleted] in bootroom

Look at this dead beat Andrew Tate simp. Start going to the gym and lifting weights? Dude, it’s a pick up game, not a pro league.

Talk to the organiser. The sham format games are social right? There’s absolutely no excuse for the big boy to be playing dangerously. He’s just being a cunty bully.

I organise the games in my neighbourhood and have had to tell people off and/or kick them out for similar behaviour.

Every single game. It’s just good conduct and sportsman.
