Tfw can only play games in single player because online mode gives me social anxiety

>tfw can only play games in single player because online mode gives me social anxiety

how do you guys do it? fucking normies

>social anxiety

No such thing.

It's called: Not running away from your problems. Fucking pick yourself up you loser.

I don't see how it can be social anxiety if it's a bunch of randos online. Maybe you're just broken

Don't feel bad, you're avoiding a lot of cancer.

I trashtalk to people, both chat and voice and I love every bit of it.
Ever heard "like wrestling pig in mid put - you're exhausted, dirty, angry and the pig actually enjoyed it"? I'm the pig. I'm bydlo. And I love being one in a game.

>social anxiety
No, it gives me a fear of being decimated/tormented. Which isn't even a fear at this point, it's the guaranteed results.

I never played online because my accent is horrible due to me never speaking English.

Good for you, multiplayer sucks. Play videogames to chill: either play with friends you get along with or just play alone. Playing with random people is cancer and you shouldn't contaminate your hobby with that.

Anxiety exists
Social situations exist.
Being anxious about social situations is a definite possibility and a I dare something even the most charismatic alpha bro has felt at some point.
Now Imagine these anxieties coalesce and become mental blocks where a person automatically stops them self from engaging in social situations out of the aforementioned anxiety. It exists, thank you for playing.

Not social anxiety, but i'm bad at games, so i refrain to single player. Also, i'm too poor to pay for PS+, and i don't want to support that scam. Finally, my laptop and my internet connection are shit, the only time i've tried online gaming was Arkham Origins, and i couldn't even move without the game keep crashing and shit.

here's how I do it
>spend a week psyching myself up to do it
>play 1 game
>realize that I'm shit, but that's ok, because I'm a scrub and the game has matched me against scrubs
>play worry free for the rest of my game time
just play 1 match user

How the fuck does anonymous interactions give you anxiety? I get being nervous at a party or job interview, but on the internet? How the fuck?

funny now i cant play non online games because i feel like im not getting "results" ie. experience, new gear,.. just beating algorythims and AI

i get anxiety knowing someone else is advancing more then me in a competitive environment

Stop being a wimp you fucking spineless loser

people are just as much machines as the computer you're using right now

wow sso mr. robot, but computers cant relay the rage i can feel though my gaming mouse when i know another person is on the other end

mute the game chat

Nice blog
Go back to Tumblr you diseased filth

honestly even when I was afraid I still did it

shout down on them, be crazy, nowadays you can bother randoms in a game 24/7 so get to it, buy the ticket, start to improve, harass those mafaks, bring down the neet filth, bring chaos, REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

just say those problems are lil bitches you are gonna fuck mentally, power thru!

I have social anxiety and I play online games
You don't have to talk to people, just play

Many of my friends are like this. Personally I'm the opposite, multiplayer games where you grind "results" feel like a treadmill designed to keep me there and make me buy something again and again, I don't like that. It's a cheap and easy way to hook people and keep milking them with minimal effort. I dislike it for the same reasons I dislike marketing I suppose.

I'll rather play a well crafted singleplayer experience anyday.

Thanks for the compliment on my post, I only get fap images from tumblr so I'll have to decline the second offer friend.

I do this too, especially when I fuck up a lot and feel kind of in everyone's way, which makes me never git gud

You're online NOW, faggotron

You have complete and total autism

Hey, I have autism and I have no problems playing online.

I get banned from pretty much everywhere because the stuff I enjoy seems to offend others, but I suppose it can't be helped. It's fun while it lasts.

just don't use a mic

Doesn't exist.

What you're describing isn't social anxiety, it's just being a beta faggot.

Thanks for not playing, cuck.

Get better by playing more.

>tfw prefer to browse Sup Forums than actually play games because it requires less effort

>hey get on mic user!

I like how you use a nice little classification to hide behind so you don't have to harden up and try to improve yourself.

This. Mental illness is a meme.

People you meet online aren't even real people. They're all puppets of a massive, socially-designed synthetic intelligence built to cultivate memes and affect the collective unconscious.

I used to feel this way when I played using my real name

>friend installed steam like 7 years ago
>set his name as simply "Liam"
>it's still Liam today

I didn't say I had it I said it exists.

Online games and social games are for women and faggots pretending to be woman, you lose nothing.

I don't play multiplayer anymore because it just feels like a pointless exercise at anger management. I like my games to have a logical beginning, middle, and end

plot twist: friend's name isn't Liam

Pop an ativan my man.
Or alternatively take a ritalin or adderall. It'll make you chatty and focused.
