Don't understand people who play super competitively with no cash involved. Unless your fun is derived solely from winning.
I understand where you're coming from, I don't enjoy playing seriously competitive. It seems like a massive chore, all you're doing is learning the patterns / animations etc and then doing the same thing repeatedly. Seems kind of boring imo, and like actual work.
I much prefer single player and being able to play things at my own pace in a way, and not having the pace of the game dictated to me.
However some people are just mentally competitive. It's what they enjoy and that's fair enough, but it's definitely not for everyone.
Another thing I don't understand is people who just play one (or one series) game, I enjoy different types of games depending on my mood and stuff.
Could not imagine playing 40 matches of fifa in a weekend or whatever it is. That is a chore to me, because it forces you to play so much to get the best prizes, don't necessarily reward you for being the best as such, rewards you for living your life on FIFA.
