Topic: Do you RAGE at game losses?

As a kid yeah/teenager yeah. Nowadays I just call myself dumb for messing up and analyze what I could have done to avoid defeat and try again or rest for a while if I feel too annoyed. When I find a game unfair which is on rare occasions I try to think of something to cheese through it, search for information or worst case scenario, leave the game at that point.

It really depends. I get mad at things I know are my fault, and I wish I could have done better. But don’t really “rage” but take breaks when needed.

define rage

no I do not. Failure is learning incarnate.

The last time I got utterly furious at a game, it was "Sonic Unleashed" on PS3; it took me TWO HOURS to beat Eggmanland, and I surprisingly defeated Egg Dragoon without losing a life.

Now, Dark Gaia...yikes. I have never been able to beat this guy, and I've had Sonic's stats all maxed out. I've had someone taunt me over that on another site. Not cool.

It's a little embarrassing to admit but when I was a competitive Smash fan I definitely used to rage a lot lol. I think I even recall throwing my controller a few times 😅 (nothing broke thankfully). I haven't played any games competitively in years at this point and it has been much more enjoyable that way IMO.

I know someone who repeatedly broke several PS controllers.

I try to refrain from playing games that will make me rage (I avoided Dark Souls, for instance, owing to its ill repute in that respect), but my "rage" evidently manifests a lot more stoically than certain others.

Though Pokémon Shuffle is probably the last game to make me utter all sorts of vulgarities that would spur my beloved grandmother to perform an exorcism on me.

Rage might be a bit strong, but certainly the penultimate boss in Blasphemous 2 (Eviterno?) was the cause of some pretty sever profanity being uttered.

B2 is generally a bit on the easy side (compared to B1 anyway) but that penultimate boss was unbelievable. First phase was pretty simple, and then second phase I was getting obliterated in seconds.... with little-to-zero time to analyse the movesets and look for openings. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets nerfed in a patch down the line.
