  • During Overwatch (solo queue), some guy was all pissy, saying that everyone on our team was throwing, and generally being a jerk. He gets fed up, and says ,“fine, since you all suck, I’m just gonna sit in spawn”. And he does. So now, we were 5v6 (OW 1).

    But the minute he stops participating, we start winning. And we cap the point. And we start capping the next one too. And I just start laughing and tell him how he must be so bad that he was actually making us worse by participating. He quietly start playing again, but he was so toxic, that I kept teasing him while he waffled for non existent explanations.

    He never stopped being a jerk, but I had a really good, memorable match.

    Puzzles - it’s all just peaceful puzzles, like overly elaborate contraptions to open doors or unlock new areas. There are no enemies or time pressure. When it was released, there was no way to look stuff up to solve them, so it was really captivating.
    Try really hard not to google the solutions, since solving them by yourself is really satisfying.

    Edit: Can’t really think of a modern equivalent, or I would buy it. If you “rage quit”, there’s something wrong with you - it’s way too mellow for that. You might want to take a break and come back, but you’re not gonna be hurling controllers.

    And it’s kind of pseudo 3D - like from each position, you can click forward, and look around from a new vantage point, but you don’t seamlessly navigate a 3d space like a modern game.
