This now is why I never bother with online gaming, after I’ve finished a long slog at work last thing can be bothered with is playing with a bunch of sweats and cheaters.. single story driven games are now my go to
Yeah imagine playing with bunch of them you will throw your PC into the road
@@darknova1552 yep 👍
Tru either that or mmorpgs that arent focused on player vs player
Casual gaming is dead because of Triple A companies shaft too much on multiplayer and streamers and MLG have open the floodgate of losers and Tryhards now casual gaming is Tryhard central and it's sad now multiplayer is so unplayable now time to go city skylines and indie games to have fun.
Gaming is dead a whole. AAA titles suck ass, everyone cheats on anything that has multiplayer and devs couldn't care less.
This mirrors my experience. Something has drastically changed in the last few years. I know dozens of gamers in RL and used to organize local LAN tournaments for more than 10 years (2005-2017) and I can tell you the average gamer around me is a normal human, with normal reaction time and okayish aim. Of all the people I know only 1 or 2 guys have better aim than me. But when I hop online the MAJORITY of people are insanely cracked, always ready for you and never miss. It's fishy as fuck.
There needs to be a case study on the psychology of cheaters in online games. Somehow they've twisted it enough in their minds to think that they are actually good at the game, thinking that even if they weren't using cheats and gaining an unfair advantage of their adversaries that they'd still be good
For me personally, the rise of MLG/Pro gaming had a damaging impact on the gaming sector. Games in general changed & a lot of games ditched the actual experience, especially for the casual gamer and here we are today where 90% of the player base are try hards.
I've always been a multiplayer guy when it comes to gaming but honestly this year and with the downfall of cod, I've just been playing random single-player games and been having a blast. As you said Si it's these greedy devs who don't want to make new games but just add DLC and more cosmetics for idiots to buy. Gaming is down bad these days 100%
just this year???
lol. wake up bro, it died in 2012
@@ac3d657I thought it was 2017 it's because of Fortnite
Yeah, I thought it was just me getting bored of games. But It's so dry right now, played multiplayer games for like 15 years It's so dead atm.. Even Overwatch 2 seems like a massive failure and I was looking forward to that :/ Good video cheers
The more I hear about Overwatch 2 the least interested I get.
I sit and sometimes think to myself am I just growing out of gaming, or is it just not the same anymore I don't wanna game, idk
It’s pretty much an insult to players who are trying to make something out it. We have nothing but influencers now promoting garbage and lying to children potentially. I mean when I was younger I didn’t care I just played the game with friends or by myself. They just want destruction to our favorite hobby and I would love to see a day where games are not played anymore just so everyone can be miserable right there’s nothing going on with these companies right in fucking up our hobbies right?
I will never cheat because there’s no point I want the feeling when I’m in the final 2 and my heart pumping and it’s me or him and the great feeling when I win.
Me too mate but they make that much money by using cheats to make it look like they are amazing
Precisely.
And that's also why clinical psychologists say there's an element of sociopathology or even psychopathology to this phenomenon. A lot of people believe they cannot achieve success in most things, and they resort to cheating; worse than that, many take pleasure in ruining the gameplay for others.
In essence, multiplayer gaming is doomed until ML starts catching cheaters. And most devs and studios are not willing to spend money in ML based anti-cheat systems.
Sbmm is the blame imo. If you're relatively decent every lobby/game will feel like mlg tournaments. As a 3.7 kd solo cod player it becomes unbearable some days. Blame the publishing studio i.e Activision and whoever else made fortnite and apex
I feel it bro, I have a 2.75 on warzone rebirth and it’s rough, every single lobby is unbearable, even if I am playing with a couple of lower skilled players the lobby’s will be ruthless all day every day, warzone is next to unplayable because of this.. it’s not fun at all and becomes more of a task to play than enjoy! Sbmm is a joke!
“You just want to stomp noobs” argument is soooo simple minded too, we just don’t want lobbies to be sweat fests 24/7 and get punished for being somewhat decent
I went 2 and 30 in a round and they put me in damn sweat fest on my next match. I just killed 2 players ffs
sbmm and a lack of functioning anti cheat, if the sweat lobbies dont get you to stop playing against cheaters will.
Mercenary team death match was a playlist in the older CoD games where EVERYONE was a solo player.
We need more games with this as a feature. It’s either i’m playing with a sweaty team, or i’m just gonna play co-op or single player.
Exactly right. 💯
I don't know if that's as high as 75%, but at the very least 30% of people cheat. And most streamers cheat
Curiously, Devs (Respawn and DICE) know this and internal memos show discussions in which they assume above 50% of people cheat. That simple. They will not acknowledge this publicly, but that's what they say behind close doors.
Titanfall 2, Apex Legends, Battlefield 1/V/4 and CoD Warzone are filled with cheaters.
I could deal with sweats all day but cheaters, man, those are like the bubonic plague….
ive always said this about these streamers, they literally run around as if they are playing dayz and you see someone every 20 minutes, they never ever get 3rd partied and never get shot in the back
Apex has sbmm but it’s no where near cod level lol. Cod is unplayable I can’t even get games of 6v6 with crossplay off cause the matchmaking is so strict
Video Gaming Has Failed To Be On A Compelling and Captivating Level For Years Now.
I agree that gaming (at the moment) is tailored towards the hardcores. I loved Apex when I started playing because I loved the characters, the environments, the graphics and, of course, the improvement curve is steep at first. But as a casual player I got quickly left behind by my hardcore friends who are way more committed to gaming than I am. Whenever I think about getting on now, I imagine myself looting for 10 minutes and then getting wiped out in the first gunfight I get into. I'll usually put in a single player game instead that lets me control the difficulty.
usually when I call out a prominent youtuber for suspicous gameplay people in the comments will chime in and help me to see what I missed. Recently I did that when I watched him one clip someone thru Thermite flames in Apex (you couldn't see anything on the screen) and I asked if it was aim assist (controller on PC) and how did he know that person was there? Crickets, no community interaction or comments on my statement. As for the SBMM Fortnite has really good matchmaking, they got it right, so why do Apex devs complain about how hard it is to get right? The cheating is out of hand in some games though. I feel Apex has the least amount overall than Warzone or PUBG. I play PUBG casual mode and almost always die to something I did wrong, bad positioning etc. If I play in regular pubs I always die from someone I've seen dominating the kill feed from some ridiculous angle or distance. I'll stop ranting but just want you to know you aren't the only one noticing the trend.
Thanks Stephen for your very well articulated comments. My thoughts exactly thanks for watching.
RUclips and twitch. Everyone wants to be a star.
Thanks to the massive influx of cheaters, smurfs and losers. I stepped back from gaming and went out and enjoyed my spring summer and fall. Not upset one bit. Don't think I'll ever come back to multiplayer gaming now.
Everyone is a God damned tournament wanna-be sweat fest.
They way I have fun is just use a Shotty and Claymores like Thunder. It's great when you rocket em and they get pissed.
I guess we gotta play cheese in order to even have an ounce of fun, it's sad state. 😭
I bought a PS5 just for Blackout, after half a year i soled the device again because of the cheating problem in Blackout. Solo's and Duo's in Blackout are unplayable because of the amount of teamers. Not to mention the amount of TTV sweats in Blackout, horrible. Combined that with cronus, modded controllers and strike packs it's fair to say console also has a huge cheating problem!!
I disagree with sweats and 90% of streamers are cheaters, the only reason you find so many sweats is due to skilled based matchmaking it's ruining casual gaming
Im so very close to uninstalling Fortnite for good. I uninstalled Warzone about 2 years ago and never looked back. I took a year off and heard FN had no-builds mode so I checked it out. Had fun for a bit until the SBMM started putting me in the sweat/cheat lobbies. Im pretty much done. Single player, campaign mode games only for me from now on. Maybe some PvE online but never ever PvP again.
This year I decided to sell my gaming PC and just keep my cheap laptop and find new hobbies I swear after "25" games just get stale af! best of luck to everyone stuck right now!
It’s dead becouse sbmm fast TTK and every one plays overpowered guns
3 stacks of high level players in a public match is always the biggest bs in my book. And i hate them.
That’s why I think console gaming should come away from cross platform.
@@charliebrydges doesn't matter, console cheaters use controller plug in cheating hardware called chronus and a couple other ones. Lots of console cheaters too.
See, I’ve heard sweats and tryhards say that they’re not ruining the experience
Well, you kinda are, but I don’t mean for the casuals
You’re taking it so seriously, to the point where when a casual wins, you get all angry and obnoxious, and just sour the victory for the casual, and if you beat the casual, you not only rub it in that you won, but in the end, the only sense of enjoyment you get, is from seeing the other person in pain, the win doesn’t make you feel any better
If you’re only playing to win, but the most you get out of that win is a small spark of joy, then it’s a sign you should stop playing for a while, because dude, you’re not even enjoying yourself
Playing games casually makes for a fun and enjoyable experience, playing 24/7 and only being in it for a win, that’s just gonna ruin you
You’re not ruining the game for just others, you’re ruining it for yourself
Get off the game, play casually
And if you’re just casually good, alright, I’ll get off your case
But you can TELL the difference between someone who’s casually good…and a fucking sweat lord
Casually good players first of all, treat others respectfully in games, sweats, meh, they just kinda ignore or act disrespectfully toward others
100% facts.
theres only two types of people that cheat only two and no others, you have sadists and the low iq. Sadists are doing it to make other people upset whereas the low iq actually get the same chemicals in their brain when winning as non cheaters do because of how low functioning their brains are.
I actually played with a couple pred players in a casual pub match. They were nice guys but I didnt have fun because it wasn't casual at all.
For 2024, I've decided to just tone down on buying new games due to greed. I somewhat do multiplayer like Roblox and Fortnite but I've been sticking to single player games for a while like Final Fantasy, LEGO Harry Potter, Pokémon, Cyberpunk, etcetera. Honestly gets me sad as a long time gamer, man.
Let’s also not forget the PC players who bring they’re MnK over to console which is also cheating.
Every time I see a higher level or rinking player "I just leave the game" because they make the game less fun and piss me off every fucking day, I'm not even relaxing and having fun
another problem with the industry, they don't wanna risk a flopped triple AAA game, but they refuse to make any other kind of games at the same time
to quote act man
the budget is either whatever could be found in the couch cushions or empty the bank account
Usually those cheaters are ex casual gamers. The sweats made them snap and i can’t really fault them
Cheaters and wanna be highlight streamers has made gaming impossible to enjoy - gaming is in the saddest state
A solid 60-80% of console players use chronus or xim apex. I would wager less than 30% of gamers even play a fair game anymore.
Glad I don't play that crap anymore. And watching someone else play lol no thanks. Good vid bud
Co-op Pve games are the future
I swear the only game series that has managed to stay the same in terms of sweats. Starcrafy, the only game where sweats actually want to teach you. I miss you GreaterRag, you taught me how to counter sweaty zergs with chat messages durring the game.
I've always enjoyed playing casual multi-player games like call of duty and battlefield and it's crazy how it use to be a casual fun game to chill out with after a long day of whatever and now it's sad it turns into a million dollar tournament sweat mode/try hard game that your life depends on it.
Late to the party but I agree. Pressure on streamers is so severe that everyone wants to do better. It's only those that been cheating and those that haven't been caught yet.
other than those first few points you made that sounded bitter and ridiculous you are right about the money thing i couldnt agree more with you on that
I’m not bitter but if you are a new viewer I can understand that initial perception
I've played fortnite for a while now and recently my lobbies were getting ridiculously difficult so i started joining up on my friend to get easier lobbies and we started to win a lot more games and I had so much more fun. its not cheating but im just saying you can literally join people who are not so good at the game and enjoy the game more.
Stopped playing Fortnite because of SBMM, first few weeks where nice after that it's over with the fun and one big sweat fest. Such a shame because the no build part is pretty good.
I was telling my friend this which he was like "maybe you're just getting old" then he began seeing it himself and is now fully convinced that yeah cross play console with console and jeep PC separate
it's not gonna change anything with shit like XIm and Cronus Max out there. I know Microsoft is cracking down on 3rd party devices on console. But I primarily play on PC and the game I play a lot CS2 is heavily filled with cheaters even in unranked lobbies you average 1-2 wallhackers a game.
whay really ruined gaming for me is pc sweats, as a console player, it cringes me to think all these people literally buy a pc just to get advantages and also i hate battle passes but apex is tje only battle royal that i will say is actually solid and btw i am not someone who ONLY plays free to play battle royals, i have 23 thousand gamerscore on xbox, which is really good and i play lots of games
Same as me pal
Thanks for the content Simon ❤️
No problem mate thanks for watching
I always wondered why a lot of streamers always have Moderate NAT settings on Warzone...
I have moderate NAT settings, trust me though I'm not dodgy 🤣 been trying for ages to get it to open
Well that's new. I would say that there has never been a better time to be a casual gamer when we have games that you can play even if you are blind.
ever since i switched to ear buds i hear everything trust me on this fancy headsets are not worth and you will never see a pro apex player really using one other than a select few like nick mercs
Another issue is we keep buying it and buying updates and skins. They won’t sell something if people don’t buy it. I went to extreme lengths and bought a ps2 socom 2 and play on private servers. There’s probably a community of about 100 people. About 15-60 people on per night. 50-60 on weekends 10-15 on weekdays
Always liked single player most unless I play with guys I know in real Life
Better be killed and hearing "I am Malenia Blade of Miquella" instead of being insulted by psychos
true
I think the biggest gripe that comes with online gaming is the players it has, it's not that they're sweaty players by any means its that they simply have more experience and hours underneath their belts than newer/casual players will ever accumulate. The meta, game plan, and strategies are all set in stone and have been established before you were born. Often times these players will not get up to play another game but will instead remain rather than have to learn to play another game and it may sound like I'm saying that out of spite or something but its the truth some people are just selfish, complacent, and frankly killjoys. Maybe that's not the only factor when it comes to performing good in matches, there's also a matter of learning and practicing the game's mechanics and etc. but many games today are simply too complex. The idea of a video game should be that its easy to pick up and play however that just hasn't been the case for many years now. Then with the advent of the internet its also been easy for players to cling onto builds, classes, and loadouts to win as more often and in general learn more about the game. And so the entry to an online game requires extensive hours of knowledge and practice underneath your belt and if you don't do your homework like everybody else guess who gets flamed or stomped from the get go. I'm no slouch or have been sleeping under a rock but that's just seems ludicrous to ask of a player especially a new one and no offensive I'd rather use my spare time to learn about other things. If anything the reason many games are this way now is because they've become a very lucrative business endeavor and they need lots of player engagement and retention and whatnot. Then the cherry on top of all that they ask you for 10-20 bucks for cosmetics, passes, and characters (even?), sorry but not sorry that isn't my cup of tea.
Yeah gaming has forever changed for me it's Crossplay I'm a vet on the PC mouse & keyboard and I feel like Crossplay ruined gaming and than there is 90% of the cheating streamers.
The best way to fix it is to play console with crossplay off. Dayz on console is pretty good. (Little bit janky but the game is fair.)
Awe the old spitty heavy ammo 😢
I love games to be hard and challenging. I would hate to be a top halo player, I would be so board. I’m average.
The solution for me is simple play single player games
I agree with the majority of the comments in the common section I can deal with sweaty players playing with sweaty players makes you a better player yourself over playing with hackers and cheaters is not it
Use personal ids solves the cheater problem forever
IM NOT MLG PRO AND I PLAY ON PC MY GUYS but it happens im sure their get banned some day
Me neither and i am also on PC, 0.86 K/D in trashzone is hardly a sweaty K/D. Stopped playing trashzone because of the toxic lobbies.
sad times indeed
From Day 1 of Battlefield V... I have been seeing multiple cheaters every single day I play in Asia servers which give me the best ping.
Started enjoying campaign games
every game i wanted to try has them, lots of them.. so i guess single player is the only way now? :D
Apex is a game you should play solo actually. If you play with a full squad of friends you get absolutely destroyed unless you are like top 10-20 percent of the playerbase. It doesnt matter if its ranked or pubs the sweatlevel is absolutely insane. I can only enjoy this game if I play alone and team up with two randoms in pubs. Its like the oposite to Warzone where the experience of teaming up with randoms is horrible and playing with friends is much more enjoyable.
I play vermintide 2 coop. Its fun. But. Many Player just go speedrun ego push fucking up all the tactical elements of the Game. They dont care for coop they play competitive and its more these days. People arent used to play with another only against each other. Me Me Me. Im the Best im the Fastest. Fuck that. What about fullfil your role in the Team in a Team based Game? No sure not. Sad
Go & play Battlefield V, there's 4-5 cheaters in every match.
Quality video Si, pure facts as always!
Check zemie 😂auto snap to enemy in air 🌚😭😭
They make more money from the Casuals, sbmm helps the super casuals
Dude, give Hell Let Loose a go. Its all I've played on PS5 for months now.
Yeah, it's why I bought a series console, PC is a broken platform for gaming.
I feel like you have no game sense and you think it's cheating
I think you have a low IQ.
@@Simonb1471 bruh you said 90% of streamers are cheaters 😂 I don't think you ever heard of in game knowledge after playing for over 2k hours
@@mistermomon9020 how much is 90% exactly? You think that's a big value?
@@NoovGuyMC 90% is a humongous number dumbass
Its the "meta" shit that gets me with gaming everyone has the same shitty loadouts and wants to go pro its so boring
I will continue to reverse boost to pwn the noobs
Isn't that just as worse than the cheaters ?
@@FreshPrincex4 not really cheaters get banned and reverse boosters dont because its in the game.
@@Isa-nm8xj but both involve ruining the experiences for new players
One involves literally changing the game
And the others just involves you constantly destroying inferior players who just want to chill and get settled in
@@FreshPrincex4 This is just how the game is, I understand what your are trying say but, I'm not cheating and when you talk about experience this is the best way to have a good experience without having to cheat and anyone can do this and are doing it.
What this also means you can join up with any of your friends regardless of how good you are and they are and enjoy the game with them.
Its not about destroying bad players because they would most likely get owned in a regular lobby as well.
People like you are exactly why i feel no remorse when cheating .
Lmao. I can tell just by watching you play that you literally think everybody is cheating. Holy shit 😂
Most people can tell the Cheaters now
Either you cheat yourself or you have the eyesight of Stevie Wonder
@@lv9084 or maybe sometimes it would do yourself some good to realize that you aren't God at the game and don't deserve to win every single fight you get into
Google needs to throttle searches relating to game cheats
Casuals ARE sweats and cheaters. Gamers treat their gaming non-casually. Casuals dont want to work to get better in games so they cheat or become sweats who do everything they can to get ahead except for actually learning to play better...
I feel you brother it's been really bad for two years at least every multiplayer game has mass cheaters and elo system is a joke for all game.
