I just don't like hyper competitive games. I don't have time to get frustrated.
I like single player games where I have the option to change things I don't like via mods or console commands.
Like competitive games, but I don't like overly competitive people. At the end of the day, win or lose, it's still a video game and it should be fun. Competitive games with friends who understand that and don't get tilted can be great fun, even when you're on a losing streak.
I wish competitive games did a better job not only matching people of similar skill, but similar personalities. I know it's just a bunch of pixels and numbers in a screen, why do you keep pairing me with these chuds that have no emotional maturity?
Some games have an option to search for a like-minded party type and it really should be a standard option.
I find that to be the main issue with SBMM. The lobby system, in my experience, creates a better sense of progression against your enemies. If you don't like who you're playing with, you join a new session. If you do like them, you can stay as long as you want.
