    I mean as a fighting game player with a real life, I can tell you that I play exactly zero matches of ranked online and am much happier for it

      I tend to agree with most of the other commenters in this thread - PvP games are just not for me anymore. I used to like them, but now it’s almost anxiety-inducing. I avoid them mostly, or if I do play I will dabble in the most casual of modes available to me and I’ll flee at the first sign of sweaty gamerbros or toxic attitudes.

      I much prefer solo or co-op games where the only opponent is an AI. There’s less pressure to perform well and as a result I can relax and have fun rather than stress about not letting my team down or getting humiliated and verbally abused by my opponents (and sometimes teammates, depending on the game).

        I suggest against the storm and ball x pit as well as blue Prince for the games I’ve been enjoying immensely lately
