Gamer Rage is a special kind of rage, gone in like 30 seconds and very confusing to anyone that hasn't experienced it before
But it is hilarious to watch

Also Charlie: "YOU CALM DOWN. IT WAS A MIS-INPUT"
Haha that video never fails to make me laugh
*IT WAS A MISINPUT, CALM DOWN! YOU CALM THE F--- DOWN!*
It wasnt really gamer rage it was more planned, like he knew he was going to say that. Gamer rage is blabbering out random words and making sentences while you go, but Charlie formally said what needed to be said. No voice cracks, only raising his voice to be actually noticed.

"the addictiveness of games is not the rewards, but rather the denial of rewards" I 100% agree with this, I find myself wanting to play game after game when I'm doing bad or not progressing because I want the gratification of doing good. Ill keep losing and getting more and more angry but I still wanna keep playing just to have that one good game. Its easy to stop playing when you're winning, but once your start losing you fall off the high horse and do everything in your power to get back on it.
That’s literally the way gambling makes you an addict lmao
Dudes really like hobbies that make them enraged

You just contradicted yourself by refuting the same quote you just used.
You keep playing because you seek the win, the reward. As you so well put it.
You stop playing because you won, meaning you got the reward you were looking for.

I knew someone online who expressed his rage by blowing wildly into a harmonica. It was the funniest shit ever seeing him die then hearing harmonica noise blasting over the mic and it made everyone laugh and not take everything so seriously
that's honestly so damn hilarious. glad that dude found a way to distract his rage and divert it somewhere else lol
I should buy one. It would make me laugh which would make me less angry.
Dayum that's wholesome. Much better than shouting, throwing shit, hitting shit
Oh shit I thought I was the only one who did that
Bro I wish that was my friend, I’d be ducking dead 🤣
"The same I thing do with my 2 year old" was a huge revelation for me unironically. When someone's getting upset and baby raging, you can't reason with them like an adult, you have to literally baby them out of it lmao

@@sLeeeTo Same lol, it's a good thing though. I forgot the name, but we used to have "tests" after we learned how to read in kindergarten, basically how *well* we can read and how much words we know.

How fast you can do it means how fast your brain works.
You can train your brain this way really well too.
Gamer rage is real phenomenon, was playing Yu-Gi-Oh once and instead of yelling “Fuck you” I yelled “Fuck me”. Had to sit down and rethink life at that moment. Middle school was a wild time.
This is me everytime my opponent play swordsoul.
I do that too🤣🤣
In your defense, losing at Yu-Gi-Oh is brutally soul-crushing with how ruthless and annoying the game can function. I'm guilty of causing that as well, being a Mikanko player, which is basically "stop hitting yourself" in archetype form.
My opponent everytime I play Drytron Herald turbo
Honestly, it still amazes me after years of CSGO and DOTA2 events, you never see this, but COD, YuGiOh and some other titles its just 100% tilted babyrage gamer.

Everyone experiences "gamer rage" in some form but experiencing it alone is one of the most isolating feelings I've ever known. It comes and goes so quickly but can give off a really long lasting and poor impression.
It is there instantly and it disappears in like 2 seconds, it is such an quick emotion that you often don't even have time to smash your keyboard.
bro when you feel so mad that you don't even raise your hand or slam shit, and you just sit there with a blank ass expression for a solid minute, that's gotta be the most just "man." moments in life bro :/
Not everyone experiences “gamer rage”. Not everyone is invested or cares. It’s just games. Don’t try to lump people into your own twisted gamer mentality.

I’ve never commented on your videos before but i have to on this one. I’m a 60 year old female gamer and my first system was atari ( that i still have and it works). Over the years i’ve had about every system and a couple of gaming computers. I got my son into gaming and my grandsons. My son turned into a rage player and moved back home when i had cancer. Imagine being sound asleep and hearing that. Sometimes i feel like smacking him upside the head for almost giving me a heart attack. I don’t understand getting that mad. Granted I never really got into cod or fortnite or first shooter games but i play to relax not to raise my blood pressure or give myself an aneurysm. My grandsons now in their teens are starting to rage as well.
He is probly escaping reality while playing games. Talk to him about it, not in a mad way. But as an interest. Like u want to know why he wants to win so bad.
And maybe introduce him to Jordan Peterson. Every man needs him
@@ResonNL Holy shit, no. Jordan Peterson is a one-way ticket to the alt-right incel pipeline.
@Banned Again Although i don’t understand why he likes to play games that make him so mad, I would rather have him take out his frustrations playing. Other than the games he’s chill and well liked, never gets in fights and is a successful salesman in his field. I’m glad he isn’t out drinking and fighting in bars. Thank You for replying and i hope i never have to go through the cancer again as well. Gaming helped me get through the hospital stay and operation. The nurses thought it was hilarious that i had my 3ds and games. Thanks again.
@@ResonNL not Jordan Peterson 💀
Coolest grandma ever
I played at a CSGO LAN a few weeks ago and the shit talking was wild, everyone was really friendly when they were not playing but when we got into the server, friendships were ended lol. Another thing is that it's the hype of playing with your teammates in person and discouraging your opponents because the LAN centers are REALLY loud.
It's like the pre-game intimidation rituals in professional field sports. Just given how little physical energy is being exerted by gamers it just gives them more than enough mental resources to trash talk their opposition whilst playing the game.
Can't really be done in normal play in normal field sports due to the complete physical disadvantage it would put you at. + In videogames there's no referee to act as a fulcrum for everyone's rage as the games code itself is the only and best referee, completely unbiased and almost always universally agreed fair.
Still though gamer rage/trash talk either makes you an insufferable or inspirational player, though... in almost all average cases it makes the player downright insufferable.
Once after winning a 3 VS 3 game in Age of Mythology I told an angry guy "it's just a game" and everyone raged at me including my team mates.
Deserved tbh
“The phrase “it’s just a game” is such a weak mindset. You are ok with what happened, losing, imperfection of a craft. When you stop getting angry after losing, you’ve lost twice. There’s always something to learn, and always room for improvement, never settle.”

Whenever I rage, I almost immediately laugh at myself right after, because it’s so silly at what I’m allowing to make me so damn frustrated when I look at what’s really going on. The rage is just an initial reaction before I process what’s happening. Maybe it’s like that for others too?
Not 'gamer's rage', but this one time Sonic didn't fill my Yellow cake batter milkshake all the way, and for some reason it set me off. Was crying, screaming, and also laughing at the same time. I got over it once I let it all out, but I was concerned as to why a milkshake from Sonic, of all things, got me that upset.
@@500sensationalsalads5 cool story bro
@@ball8313 Thanks
I know this is a little late, but for context to my previous comment, I had been going to job interview after job interview, running errands for my mom, etc. Places like McDonald's kept getting my orders wrong back to back. I was trying to be as cool as possible, but the Sonic shake was my last straw.
What I'm tryna say is "raging" is not a bad thing all over. Sometimes we have moments that bring out the more "carnal" side of us and it's okay. I let it all out, and felt better afterwards. If I had that reaction everytime then that would be a different story lol
I do the same. Doesn't happen that often but only my friends hear it, and I laugh and say something like 'wow I got mad' so they know i'm not crazy
I've noticed that people tend to get angry when they are embarrassed. It's like they need to justify why they did something stupid.
This is why, to a certain extent, road rage is usually initiated by the person who drives badly or dangerously; they know they messed up and are embarrassed by it. So not liking the feel that they've made themselves look like a fool, they try to blame someone else.
In gaming, they invest so much emotional energy in the game that if - like in any - something goes wrong then they overreact. They then become embarrassed they've overreacted by something so trivial so they overreact more and so on.
Disagree about road rage. From my experiences, most people are oblivious to their piss poor driving and are unaware that they are breaking the law/s or simply don't care that they are endangering their lives and the lives of everyone around them. So many people are just extremely selfish, in a hurry and think their time is more important than anyone elses.
@@juggmkj I agree, road rages are normally the people who get cut off and such by the poor drivers.
I know gamer rage can be hilarious and entertaining to watch, but some people take it too far. I've had friends who throw games, rage quit, or even let it affect personal relationships and it suddenly becomes the dumbest, stupidest, most immature shit. I think you can read a lot into someone's character by how much they are affected by a trivial event in a make believe virtual world.
agreed. I had a couple of relationships ruined because Ive had old friends who were gamers take out their rage indirectly at me, knowing im extremely sensitive to loud noises, especially banging. I would tell them multiple times to not do that around me, and instead they just say i don't understand how gaming works💀💀....lol
I knew one like this. My stepbrother once got so angry for losing at WII SPORTS that he took a boot and smashed the TV with it. Luckily it was at his house so he didn't damage my stuff. Kid was a psycho.
I used to get super mad and just end up so bent out of shape, do stupid shit, but I realized that I have limited free time alive on Earth, and if I'm spending it angry at something I choose to do in my free time I'm only hurting myself. It wasn't a cure, I still get mad (Why hello there, Elden Ring, how ya doin?), but I don't just slam my head into the same wall and risk giving myself a stroke. I put the controller down and do something else.
@@VSPhotfries I was the same, addicted to a moba and played frequently with a friend who constantly raged at other players and it came to a point where I'm like... this is embarrassing and 0 fun. Like how immature is it to rage at players who are still in like elementary school. So I just stopped playing so frequently and when I do, never serious about it.
Much happier and spend my free time doing much healthier hobbies!
The only friend I play online with gets mad at everything. He doesn't scream but gets mad and wants to stop playing just because we lose twice in a row and it's really annoying
What gamer rage taught me:
It's cheaper to buy a new keyboard than to find all those popped out keys
Ur white bro 😹🫵🏽
its cheaper to not break your keyboard
@YeaMan not even near the level of Skynut.
@YeaMan “paige”
Weird thing is, ive always been a pillow puncher. Breaking my setup seems stupid, even in the heat of a gamer rage. So I just release it on a nearby pillow, don't have any issues
My tennis coach used to tell me that however hard you hit the ball at the wall during training, however hard it will bounce back at you. So if you decides to rage quit at the wall because you had a bad day, be ready for the probability that the ball bounced back at a certain angle and smash your face in, making you even angrier.

Once I raged hard enough I actually burst out laughing at myself. I think I said something like "Why the fuck don't I just shove this controller up my ass and do some kegels? I'd probably have better luck.... fuck meeeee" or close to that. I had to stop and laugh a bit.
Lmao
Yeah that also happens to me, sometimes you rage so hard that you go full kira laugh mode
We’re you smoking on dat tree

@@zWolfrostOld I get so pissed off at a game sometimes and then I realize how ridiculous I sound and laugh at myself.
There was one time I was fighting a boss and after a while I stopped screaming actual words and just started screaming gibberish and then I got to a point where I started uncontrollably laughing like a f*cking psychopath. I’m a little concerned for my mental health looking back on that to be honest.
I had my experiences with gamer rage with my randoms yelling at me post game in League. I was a completely brand new player to League who wanted to get into what was the trend at my high school back then. It didn't even take one game for me to get on the receiving end of a gamer rage and it was a really rude one at that - he was so ignorant and kept shouting profanities at me and the only thing I could do was let him say what he could say (I stopped emphasizing gaming as a part of my life way back in 2014 and I didn't want a pointless argument with a stranger over a game). I did reply to him respectfully by saying that "it's just a casual game why are you so upset and I'm new to this game so I would like to some pointers." I don't know how this upset him to the point that it brought on a bigger rage I will not discuss here but it got to the point where I had to block him and days later delete League entirely after knowing this is a common theme within a certain demographic.
You just dodged a bullet
Glad you blocked him, I've heard of people getting killed over things like this. Thank god it isn't common
Am 21 and still hadn't played games like that hehe, thinking as well that people on are like screeching bitter lost manchildren over a game, Jesus help these

This hits me hard because a few years ago I had the worst internet ever. I would constantly lag no matter what time of day it was. I participated in this low-key Halo tourney because I enjoyed this particular game-mode, but on a causal level. When it came down to having to actually play well the game had other plans for me and I yelled into my mic so often that looking back at it now I’m so embarrassed because that’s not who I am. I am currently back to having terrible internet and I haven’t touched my PC in months.
As a little kid I would cry uncontrollably whenever my Sims died. Not because I cared about the sim, but because I was scared of the grim Reaper and his scary tune. Does that count as gamer rage?
No, that’s reasonable. I feel like it’s only legitimately ‘gamer rage’ past the age of 8 or 10. Otherwise it’s just a kid being a kid
No, it’s not rage.
This is Gamer fear. Also I finally found someone else who was afraid of the Sims Reaper, lmao
That's just fear
Nah thats gamer doom
As someone who suffers from gamer rage, I try my best to make my anger as goofy as possible because I would rather my friends laugh at my pain than be uncomfortable. Them having a good time makes me feel better, the joy comes back around.
I also mostly play single player sand boxes for my own sanity-
I just scream whatever insult is most applicable to the person nearest to me, which is usually twink because I CANT STAY AWAY FROM THEM HELP
i will never play getting over it. never. i cant AFFORD to
Play a game because you enjoy it. Not to be good at it

I haven’t seen the whole video yet so forgive me if this is talked about but I really wanted to share:
In college one of my capstone classes was “the Psychology of passion” and in that class we talked about how some peoples passion can be detrimental to their mental health because they become “obsessive passions”, in which the person associates their personality and their “self” with the passion. I think this is a huge reason why gamer rage occurs, because most of these people are, as you said, good at the game, and it’s often all they do, this puts it on track to become an obsessive passion, and they associate their “self” with the game AND their PERFORMANCE in it. Which is why some people blow up at such seemingly little things, because to them, it’s damaging their self-image
There’s a LOT more to it but that’s the synopsis have a great day everyone and don’t forget the breathe :)
TLDR:
People get so into the game they associate it with their image of their “self”, and thus poor performance or being out-played damages their “self-image” so they react in an aggressive way
People can avoid this by many things but a HUGE help is to have other hobbies, so all of your time and self-image isn’t condensed into one passion. Ok I’m done now everyone have a great day!
This is fascinating thank you for sharing.
Not sure about this only bc my boyfriend used to be D1 in League but stopped playing a long while ago. Now he only gets on at my behest for ARURF or for ARAM. He gets that *gamer rage* and flames teammates for being bad at the game (even though half the time I’m the one doing ass, but he’d never tell me that) or just the game in general for bad balancing. Honestly I hate seeing him get angry and I feel bad for the ppl who he yells at, he’s never like that any other time. But I think Dr. K is right, that it’s the denial of a win he believed he should’ve gotten. He knows he’s good at the game and he barely plays now. I never get angry bc I’m just bad at the game and im not competitive over video games, I play for fun or for events.
Reminds me of wingsofredemption
Same with your job!! I work as a cook in the very high end restaurant scene and some cooks make it their entire identity and get so destroyed by a bad night
@@koltm1338 yes! Precisely! It certainly isn’t limited to video games it’s with any passion you may have! Happens with athletes and artists all the time as well! Hopefully those cooks are able to realize their amazing and one bad night isn’t going to ruin them!
i observed the same in fps games as Dr. K, he explains the team psyche dynamic so nice. I love when the team spirit takes over in a game where there was full blown frustration from one or more players. nudge it the right way and you can turn the minds and the entire match towards positivity and success.
wont help in all cases but hell its like real life magic seeing the team spirit change the entire experience and results.
the product placement in the end which so perfectly timed ! We could see Charlie's expression. He really felt how not awkward it was right xD ?
I had a roommate in college that raged while playing League. I can still feel how scared and viscerally stressed my gf and I would get with how loud he would yell and smash his keyboard. It was most definitely not fun experiencing it irl. I couldn't believe his keyboard didn't break. And this guy was around 24 at the time.
You should tell him to stfu and touch some grass if he's abusing his keyboard over a game

@@Ascension721 best thing to do is just to practice forgiveness. being overly angry about things that are totally out of your control is normal but very unhealthy as well. you have to learn to practice some level of acceptance and go "well, I did my part, and Im proud for my accomplishment even if RNG or someone else failed us"

There are some games that go against that sort of game design like puzzle games. With puzzle games they don't have any sense of being denied the reward. Any time you get close to solving the puzzle but not quite getting it, it's more a sense of progress. There isn't really any sense of losing.
With Dark Souls you may make progress but you will die in the process & then you have to start again. So that's more of a sense of being denied the reward.
I think it's why Battle Royale games blew up in popularity, especially Warzone. If you play CoD multiplayer if you play the regular game modes like team deathmatch a team win doesn't really matter since you get so many of them. But you now have this new game mode where the best people are winning around 50% but a large majority of the player base wins less than 10% of the time. So that rush of excitement when you get to the end of the game and you are trying to win and you either blow it, get killed in some "sweaty" way, or you win can give you a very wide range of emotions.
seeing my kids play fortnite and roblox have shown me that gamer rage is a natural instinct. you know you’re getting old when you grow out of it
kid breaking their ipad cause they got 2 stars on fashion famous 💀
Was playing Mortal Kombat 11 with my younger cousins, absolutely wrecking them even while only blind random-ing character selection.
The absolute SEETHING rage that they showed was mind boggling from someone who has gotten angry at game mechanics and various online multiplayer games, but not once has a game ever taken me all the way to the point of frothing at the mouth in an episode pure unadulterated rage.
I'm in my mid-forties. I don't get mad when playing games, I get disappointed. I lost two and a half days dying to Malenia and the loudest I ever got was "what the fuck?"
It’s only prominent when you play competitive games. Especially those like Leauge of legends
The time comes when a father needs to tell his son "it's time to be a man son".
As someone who went to all of these cod lans...these clips are all toward the end with 1 or 2 setups. Walk in there during prime time when 8-12 setups are running games. Absolute madness
During OG destiny era, every time I was killed by thorn (super OP weapon for those who don’t know) I became beyond infuriated. But due to the fact it was the dominant weapon at the time, I legit just built an incredible tolerance to gamer raging after hours and hours of dying to the damn thing.
I think being supportive works for a few reasons:
>even if you lost, you feel like the team pulled together and gave it a good effort
>when someone else is calm in a stressful situation, you feel like things are under control or at least you're okay as long as they're okay
>helping your team when you can takes some of the burden off them, even if you're not doing a ton to help them then it at least relieves some of the psychological burden
I think extreme gamer rage is encouraged by the climate of ultra competitive multiplayer games that has been cultivated over the last decade or so. We need more games with healthy communities centered around social gameplay. People will still be toxic of course but we need games that don’t encourage toxicity or even make players feel isolated from the community.
I wouldn’t say it’s encouraged because that would imply that it’s a desired thing by the community/concept as a whole. What I would say is that it can make environments and scenarios that are /conducive/ to more frequent instances of gamer rage, which is similar but doesn’t place any intent on anyone. I know there are exceptions like that where Charlie was talking about the cod leagues of yore that would encourage trash talking, but that hardly speaks for gaming competitions as a whole.
I think it really depends on the type of game. I've gotten into playing a lot of strategy lately (mainly Stellaris) and even though the games can get really competitive, it's always in good fun. I just finished a 13 person mp game that took four hours, and one of the other players was giving me tips and advice on how to make my economy better while he was actively committing genocide on my population.
Competition and toxicity is mutually exclusive.
Where there is competition, there will always be toxicity. Any type of scarcity in games will create a harsh environment for the players.
Idk, I love competitive environments and seeing the passion (including the rage) on display. As long as players let it bleed into life post game, it’s all good
It all comes down to people not dealing with the lack of control they are experiencing. Whether that be from being in a team of people who don't listen or from you making a mistake and trying to then remedy the mistake, with everything going down hill regardless of how well you think you are doing. When you are calm and in control, everything flows. When you are agitated or uncomfortable, you are facing something unexpected and you've lost control. Being agitated is one of the first steps to learning. Most people don't see it as learning and instead, take the first emotion that arises, which is always anger and use it as an escape. The same concept applies to almost every instance in life.
And then some people are legit just toxic which is usually determined by outside influences. Lack of control just fuels that fire.
The thrill is in the hunt, not the kill. It's not some hidden secret that humans enjoy the journey of hunting rather than the reward. Hence the denial of the reward being addictive.

I was having a bad day on Mahjong Soul today and I'm from a German speaking part of Italy and it was probably the first time people on Discord heard me rage in German today. I am still confused why I raged in German because I grew up in an English speaking school and was born in England. Literally never happened before but only German came to my mind, and I've never spoken it so cleanly in my life.

>German

Fascinating watch, haven't gotten through the whole video yet but I had to comment.
I used to have gamer-rage, but I've been in recovery and sober about 5 years now. 😊 There is definitely a lot of shame and embarrassment that comes with gamer-rage, especially if witnessed by your significant other. Would recommend anyone that experiences gamer-rage to seek help with it, life is significantly better after those rages are gone.
Gamer rage is easily my most watched content on UA-cam in the recent years. There's just something about watching people lose their shit over a video game that tickles my funny bone SO hard xD
i love to laugh at and mock the angry gamers while blissfully ignoring all the times i've wanted to smash a chair into the wall out of anger due to being unable to dodge an attack
I used to rage a lot at games, and looking back I realized that it was because I wanted so desperately to win so I could prove to myself and others that I was good.
I knew that raging didn't make me feel any better and sure it was funny to some of the friends I played with, but it ended up being more annoying and bad to my mental health than simply being some kind of thing I could use to blow off some steam.
It is possible to stop raging at games but it comes as form of practice with yourself in admitting defeat and accepting that there is always room to grow.
I feel bad for the people who had to endure my countless fits for nothing and for the people who still do rage, and although it is funny to watch, I still hate how it's just something that not all people can help and that it ruins more than it builds.
I remember being 13-16 and we had this one friend that would rage at every game you played, to the point where he would try to fight you if you beat him, or mid way through the game he’d start hitting you or throwing your controller across the room, I look at it now and feel bad the poor soul was probably filled with sm rage 24/7
I broke up with my boyfriend because he would rage constantly and I was full of trauma and couldn't handle it, any game even fun games if he was losing he would rage and one thing about me is I can't take anger very well (bit better now but still frightens me from my mother as a child) and he knew this but never even tried to change, lied about changing and he made me get bad mental health so I decided to break it off for good.
I’ve had my moments but that first guy really went back in time before puberty to unleash the most powerful rage I’ve seen, only second to those who break their monitors or systems. Then he came back.
When talking about talent vs learned skill, I'd say to some degree, that some form of legitimate talent needs to be at play. Natural talent with hand coordination, natural talent for hand/eye coordination, natural talent for learning the skills needed in-game, etc, etc. There has to be some form of natural talent involved. Ideally, I'd say there's a balance of skill and talent. The more equal the balance, the better
Getting older and learning to take breaks or switch games when frustrated made a huge difference for me.
I think a big part is regaining a feeling of control by choosing to do something other than bang your head against a wall in or out of the game.
yeah, but there has to be a way to get out that anger. I know how it feels to keep that all in and then have an outburst, it isn't healthy.
Why get angry at all I never did lmao
@@Driven215 yeah same you just have to be or learn to be a stoic Chad. even if i do get frustrated i keep in my head, joke about it, and know i just have stay cool and calculated if i actually want to play well. if anything those moments only get my heart racing, gets me more focused, and i even get a little rush and ego check out of it lol. it's all about that stoicism grindset, no better power in the game of life than power over your mind.
Charlie made a good point. You always get angry from losing to the things you know you can do better than the average at. What a reflective moment for me 💀A hard pill to swallow for most people; there will always be someone who can do something better than you
That’s so true lol, when I was little and playing Mario kart Wii, I lost in 50CC, didn’t even know what drifting was, but I never got mad. But now when I play Mario kart 8 deluxe ok at least… ok but I’ll get tilted from one green shell, maybe just not screaming.
I usually dont have a mic when playing because its just rage but one game, oh man. Everyone started arguing we were losing all lanes and i was just sitting back listening until one of them very angrily yelled "you tell me what to do then" and the guy yelled back some build changes and the tone slowly changed to civil and they all started working together and pretended they werent just yelling insults 30seconds ago and we came back and won and its one of the most special gaming moments ive ever experienced.
This is the goal I’ve been reaching for in my streams kill rage with kindness and humour, great thought process
Gotta say I love the sweet cadence LTG delivers his gamer rage.
Ur white bro 😹🫵🏽
@YeaMan Bro you can’t even spell page. Forget you and your music
Yeah LTG's rage is an art in and of itself
LTG took gamer range and crafted it into an artform. He literally gained my respect with his anime villain arc XD he found out why people memed him, molded it into his strongest asset, and redeemed himself through comedy gold. Respect lmao
"THIS DUDE DID A 10-HIT COMBO! THIS DUDE'S DOING STRINGS!"
Myself and a friend of mine used to do a bit of raging in fps games (not full on screaming but still a bit bad), now instead when we die to some bs we give the party chat our best pleasure moan. It's genuinely hard to be angry and moan like that at the same time + it makes people laugh
I dont know if replacing being angry with being uncomfortable is a good trade off
@@Connor_Kirkpatrick haven't received a complaint about it in years and tbh if you're that soft that a moan effects you.....life ain't gon be fun
Every time I join my friends Xbox parties I always let out a FAT moan, like really jarringly awkward. My friends die laughing and they’re like “here’s the village idiot” it’s a good laugh and I enjoy just hearing them cackle at it
*gets stabbed and dies*
“mmmmm”
Do you sometimes add phrases to words, cuz….that would be hilarious
I remember my friends and I were raging so hard (it was a sweaty close game) 😂 of black ops 2 and we just starting dying of laughter from how mad we were. It was beautiful.
Man ive always had headaches, last 2 years they got worse. So I finally figured out a game I was playing was making me stress out to a point it would take my headache and send it to the moon. I cut the game completely out and I've not had a single one of those debilitating headaches. Greatest decision I ever made with my mental health was cutting it and not looking back
Cool.

2:43 I don't know what's so funny about him saying the "parents made him" line" but it just set me off laughing
i witnessed a good one today in TF2, in the lobby that we were in there were a bunch of people spamming voicelines and using soundboards in voicechat and this one guy, who i assume doesnt know how to mute people, was getting agitated by it and requested that they would please stop. but because they were gamers they proceeded to ignore him and for like the next couple of rounds we heard nothing from him. but eventually he cracked and in the middle of a round he just started screaming and cursing them out and begging them to stop (which they didnt). me and my friends didnt hear anything from him for the rest of the session but it was very entertaining
Sounds to me like you were playing in bot lobbies, they just spam obnoxious YT videos the whole time
Something I've found from just playing games myself and with others usually people rage when their in like a party chat and stuff with others then by their self
A lot of this was interesting especially since a lot of my friends rage and to be honest sometimes I get mad at them rage because of them
I remember one time at a swim meet a fellow team mate (wouldn't call him a friend but we didn't dislike each other or anything) got disqualified, it was a very specific technicality so they had to get the ref involved, and when they announced it he slapped the water super hard and screamed 'F***CK' and got in so much trouble 😂
As someone who used to rage quite frequently as a teenager and still on rare occasion now as a adult I can confidently say if you rage at a game to the point your causing damage to yourself or things around you, that has nothing to do with games that you having a lack of control over your emotions. Its a temporary burst of emotions that you were unable to fight back with logic such as weighing the cost of the item your about to destroy.
I'm glad I was able to dial back my emotions as I got older. It saved me money and it genuinely made my life alot simpler and easier both in and out of video games. Plus I've noticed I enjoyed games more when I try my best and I am satisfied with the outcome no matter win or lose.
I'm not a raging person in general, I never break things, the times I'm yelling are really rare, like maybe once a year because I've had a DC just when I was about to kill 2, or something, but I do rage quit a lot when the frustration is getting too much and I'm about to become unfriendly. I'm not playing in small teams though, so whether or not I'm playing doesn't make that much of a difference.
Yea I'm 20 now but even like 4-6 years ago I was punching walls, throwing remotes, yelling at the top of my lungs, yelling at the people sitting next to me for no reason. At the age of 17 I just came to my senses and was like man being this mad isn't worth it especially when real life has way more stakes. My friend has ended friendships and relationships over games and that's when you know it's bad.
Hell even nowadays I'll yell, I yelled at Madden the other day 😂. but that's the max it'll get at. I haven't broke a remote intentionally since 2018.

Gamer rage is hilarious especially in fighting games catching someone slipping or lose to chip damage is amazing 🤣
Damn do I hate losing in fighting games. The hardest part is knowing that I know what to do but I just dropped the punish or didn’t do the thing I needed to do.
I think any 1v1 game tends to get a lot more rage. It’s more personal between two individuals…so yea seeing someone get chipped to death for the whole game then get up and scream until his lungs fall out of their mouth is much more satisfying than a team arguing amongst themselves
I'm a girl with a really girlie voice and years ago I was once playing a game called COD with a group of boys and girls and one of them started calling me slurs and threatened to r@pe and murder me once he breaks into my house because I told him "calm down its just a game, it's not that serious" while he was raging over another guy in our team for "not playing good"
But after he threatened me literally everyone just started screaming at him to stfu but that made him even more angry and he went on a really long rant over r@ping everyone's moms and sisters and even dog like WTF. SMH. We had to mute him out.
What's interesting is if you read the book how to win friends and influence people, (very good book, you should read it it will change your life) it says on how people naturally want to be right and if you tell them otherwise, they dig in their heels, so instead of saying that you can give them options, or give them reasons on why it's good without being condescending, you be understanding from their situation and show genuine appreciation for them, and they won't rage
I like how Charlie couldn't really say that he wouldn't be all about bullying 5 year olds at chess full time lol
Competitive gaming might actually be interesting if they were still allowed to rage and scream at each other. Dunno when that became taboo it used to be a big draw.
But if the raging was the big draw then it could become a thing like the WWE

As someone who played Pavlov Shack Beta (Pavlov VR on oculus quest) competitively, I understand every bit of rage in both pubs and comp matches. Comp matches are almost always chill, especially compared to the pub matches where everyone is a 2012 call of duty player talking about people mothers and whatnot. I've learned to not rage at games unless it breaks, or unless my teammates aren't doing anything, killing each other, sabotaging the team, helping the other team, unless the entire game is fine with just fucking around like going knives only in a vr fps shooter
If you haven’t already you should make a tier list of all the best gamer rage moments or known people who’ve done it
it's embedded in our genes because you can't spell gamer without rage
