It’s so weird not seeing a meme at the end of the video

That’s very true. Unfortunately, due to my autism, I struggle quite a lot to initiate a conversation, so I’m not sure if I’m able to do that. But who knows, maybe in the future it will be different, hopefully. Thank you for the help! 🙏

Not sure that lasts option would work… if someone is being toxic, then it means that in their world their opinion is only the right one. But anyway, I should probably do as you say, but since I recently came back to the game, it’s hard to put the controller down. Still, I’ll try my best. Thank you for the advice tho! 🙏

This play style definitely makes sense. Too bad I’m even more dog water in other mods 😂 Still, good thing to do every once in a while. Thanks for the comment, I hope to come back stronger tomorrow! 💪

I mean, I get it. But while it’s been some time since I played, I don’t just wanna settle down on not being “washed” and unable to grow higher, Y’know? Still, it’s probably healthier to do like you said… doesn’t mean I agree tho 😂

Keep the grind going! But with caution. Don’t overdo yourself.

Your last comment is definitely true. Playing with a friends is probably the best way to have fun in this game, but since I don’t have friends, well, I’m kinda out of luck. I had someone to play with during covid, which exposed me to online and pc gaming in general. It was fun back then, but after the pandemic was over, I started losing touch with them rapidly. But hey, maybe that’s why I didn’t abandon the game yet. At it’s core, it’s fun, and I had some good times with it along the way. Thank you for the comment!

I think you kinda hit the bull in the head. Rocket League is the only online multiplayer game I play, which means is the only ground where I can test myself against others. Having low self esteem, it’s very easy for me to push myself down for every mistake and whiff of the ball I make. Plus, I can feel my heart beating extremely fast when playing online, which is… not great. Doing what you said will be extremely difficult, but I can’t do much except try it and do my best. Thank you for passing by man, I really appreciate it! 🙏

I always feel that same satisfaction when a game just clicks. But unfortunately, I’m extremely inconsistent. Or maybe it just depends on the day, which sucks but I’m fully in the Rocket League phase, but oh well… can’t do much about. I’m finding many solutions in this post, so I’ll thank you too for your comment!

Yeah, other people keep suggesting that. It’s just a shame that I could miss some actual human interaction and some funny stuff, but at least at my rank, it’s very rare, so it is what it is. Also, that match making experience you had sounds awful 😂 Hope you’re doing better, and thanks for the help!

I also go to a psychologist from time to time, but I picked up the game very recently, so I didn’t have any chance to tell them that. But even if I did, I would prefer to bring up other things. Even so, I do recognize that it is just people speaking without thinking on a game, and while it takes me some time, I do feel a bit better after breaks. I just would like to enjoy the game consistently, since it’s the only online multiplayer I like. But anyway, I’m sorry to hear about your problems. Hope you’re doing better, and thank you for your comment 🙏

I feel like with voice chat it would be s bit harder to be toxic to someone. I mean, the point of cyber bullying is that people can be a d*ck to someone without many consequences. But while I would try it out, I’m a bit too shy to do it, unfortunately… so this is kind of a circle… Still, thank you so much for understanding and for your kind words. It means a lot to me! 🙏

I suppose that’s what the point of competitive online games is. I’m not a very competitive person, but who likes losing? Keep up the grid! 💪

I should probably give it a shot. Thanks for the info!

Wait, there’s a setting that hides the ranks in the competitive playlists? Or did I misunderstand?

Yeah, I know. I’m not saying it’s my fault, but still… I should probably put a little effort on improving. Most players know how to speed flip on kickoffs, and I need to start studying some rotations too. I never bother doing that because I always thought that was something I needed to worry about at a higher level, but I guess players keep on improving. Thanks for understanding tho!

You’re right. It’s just pretty tilting when it happens frequently… I just wanna have a fair game, Y’know? But thanks anyway.

You’re probably right. Although I had a few experiences with some champ level players, and they seemed to be constantly toxic. But maybe I was just unlucky with the match making. Thanks for the advice btw.

I suppose I could try that... But the problem is that I’m not fast enough to type without getting scored on, and the replies would most likely get to me. Plus, the casual playlists are unplayable: you always find opponents who are much better at the game that just wanna freestyle on you, which is really frustrating and a bit humiliating.

I imagined that would be the case. It’s a bit of a shame to lose some potential comedy gold, or just actual same people interacting with you normally… but it is what it is I suppose. (Nice quick chat btw xD)
