Being better at grinding to the max level and repeat the same patterns all the time? Good for them, but it's what I call an easy win. Can you really be proud of your win? Do they even realize that when it takes less than 2-3 minutes to complete an online match with no trouble at all, it's just not fun anymore? Unless those people are sadists... (And that's what they are if you ask me.) Also, that Chess example is a bit extreme. Sure, they shouldn't take it easy on you since you're a beginner, but beginners will get better at one point and adapt to the different play styles. Then, the pattern I just said above is going to repeat itself. That's exactly it, it takes time to get to the top of your game and realize everything you can exploit in the game, but once you do, isn't it redundant? It's not fun when you start and lose all the time, it's not more fun when you're good because there's no challenge anymore. |
It takes time to become good at anything. Some people have fun spending that time to get everyone ultra-powerful, some don't. It's rather ignorant of you to assume your standard of "what is fun for me" applies to others.
If you don't want to spend the time maxing your characters then you should just accept that you will lose to people who do. They put more time and effort into the game and they win more often. It's exactly how things should work.
