The game to get better at is the game you enjoy most, and what sites depends on the game.

This is spot on, though keep in mind that, depending on the game, you might play it so much you’ll grow to hate it. You’ll also find yourself looking at videos and guides on how to get better, effectively upping you from a casual

Small time or local competitions/tournaments are likely to only have one mr. motherfucker that will utterly destroy you. They tend to show up a lot more in fighting games, though some strategy games, like Starcraft 1/2, also have a significant number of them. If you want to avoid feeling humiliated, racing games (Gran Turismo, Forza, Project CARS) are the ones you’ll want to go for. Sports games (football, 'murican football, basketball) also have really damn good players, though it’s unlikely you’ll get humiliating losses in them after a bit of training.

As someone else mentioned, speedrunning is also an option, though it’s a lot less about direct confrontation and more about grinding the same game over and over. It’s also the easiest one to “get into”, especially if you aim at less known games. Events like AGDQ can hold head-to-head competition of 2 or more runners in the spot.

Keep in mind that some games need teamwork as much as individual skill - Marvel Rivals, Overwatch 2, League of Legends, etc.

Are you talking about MMO games, or anything with persistent worlds? Because anything that is match based doesn’t really need those kinds of dedicated servers to be revived.

The thing is that big companies killed P2P, DirectTCP from their games because that allowed pirates to play online, even if limited.

Some of the actual reasons people hate crypto are:

• extreme volatility
• many coins’ value can be easily manipulated by whales
• most stablecoins are probably one step away of crashing down like Terra Luna
• resource intensive - you can shout about proof of stake all you want, there are still gigawatts of energy being burned to “mint” bitcoin
• no protections because “code is law”, even when the code is flawed
• forking risk nearly every year
• the coins that aren’t as resource intensive, have fast transaction times and negligible fees, are unlikely to gain traction or receive widespread adoption
• you still have to go through the hoops of a heavily regulated exchange to get actual money from any crypto you have

No one pays in shares because no one accepts this and it’s annoying to do?

Sounds like crypto

volatility with crypto is annoying, but it will happen with a currency that works in every country, even fiat is volatile

True, but countries have means to keep money more or less stable. Most countries also have laws that are supposed to ensure big money owners don’t collude to play insider trading and pump’n dump every other week

Time for Brazil’s PIX to be exported around the world. That’s likely to be hard, as here it is a direct, bank agnostic account-to-account transfer without middlemen and without any tax, so it’d need cooperation between the involved countries.

How do you feel about Skyrim? I kinda want to recommend Morrowind via OpenMW, which should run fine on the Deck, but I guess both games would feel too much like DnD for you.

Undertale, if you haven’t played, might be fun.

You can also check out Trials of Mana, which is a remake of the SNES game and, unlike the remake of Secret of Mana, doesn’t seem to have any unpatched game breaking bugs. Other JRPGs that might be work checking out are the “Ys” and “Legend of Heroes” series, both should have plenty of games that play fine on the deck.

Lastly, Rune Factory, which is fantasy harvest moon (the farming sim that started it all, so to speak) with some light dungeon delving and leveling up.

Skyrim certainly plays better in first person, but you can change the camera to be 3rd person, slightly behind your character. The default kinda sucks and you’d be better off trying one of the camera mods. You’d also need a few mods to get a better experience overall, like SkyUI for better menus, and Unofficial Patch to fix fuckloads of bugs Bethesda never bothered to fix in 14 years

Or a fake limited time choice, as in, the character speaks as if they have to act or choose quickly! But if you don’t press anything, they’ll just stand there in a dramatic pose. Or go ahead and act as if you pressed the button anyway (Saints Row 3 had those)
