How do you handle rage or anger quits? Have you ever broken a controller or a console? for me
When generally a video game goes too fast or too complex or, it makes me fatigue. I get angry and turn off the game console. I have broken a few controller a long time ago. I'm a loser when it comes to games, I usually get lost or don't know what to do in which is why I turn off so many games not even bothering to get off the first level
At first I usually cuss the game out or just have the basic frustration we all experience
. 9 times out of 10 a game won't push me beyond that. I usually just shut the game off. But some games are really captivating with their evil. Like Ninja Gaiden or Cuphead. But as the game's irradiating pain lingers through my veins as it's RNG spends hours ripping me off and violating me emotionally like some sick captor I develop this sense of stockholm syndrome. I try to pass the frustration and anger off with 3rd person comedy routines and I laugh at the game as if it's a joke or as if it's meant to be a joke but once it sets in that i'm imprisoned and the thing I so very hate has become my very vice I become afraid that I will never find a way to beat it or that it's just toying with me. I scream to the TV to fix the problems and I question life itself. I swear, I grunt angrily and I eventually cry which makes me madder and than I typically go off the handle with tears rolling down my cheeks, distain in my heart. I stand up to my captor (the game) and call it some obscene words that should not be repeated. I spit villainy at my TV screen and typically end up punching a pillow or DVD case until I become breathless and hurt my knuckles and I can no longer throw a punch which is when I collapse into the cushions and finish my cry.
Rarely games get me to that level. It's certainly not a common occurance. But maybe 3 times in my life have come a game that essentially game raped me. Being just truly abused by a sick game dev until you forget who you truly are or what world you are in. And when you end up beating the game you feel this sense of sadness that combines with your valor. You beat your captor but It's like the walls melting in your prison cell. You extinguished a living hell around you but the hell became you so a piece of you dies in the process. You mind became institutionalized and you just want nothing more for the pain to come back. It's the feeling of being sick and twisted and the whole time you can't understand why but you love the game regardless of what it put your through. You question weather you beat the game or did the game beat you. And it's at this moment you find your true identity and purpose in life. You long to be hurt again. The scars have become your soul. Sat, head in your palms. Rain pouring down your hair. Soaked shirt. Rain drops or tears on your cheeks? Only you know the truth. And THOSE games are the games that keep us up at night. Like an ex lover that called you fat and tried coaxing you into self harming but you miss them because they were the only friend you had. You have grown but that piece of you still exists and always will.
Than have come games that I just sold out of rage lol. Last year I posted NBA 2k18 on ebay for 40 dollars (55 at the time) and sold it within 1 hour to some UNlucky fellow. It's rare a game pushes me to sell it but if it does it's typically a broken, micro trans riddled piece of trash like 2k18

Lately when A game gets me mad I just take it out of the console and call it a day though. I get mad but typically a game either isn't good enough for me to troop it out and get mad enough or it's just a light amount of anger that I can ignore with some youtube.
