    players optimize the fun out of games

    I feel this, and my solution was to play different games, not try to make the same handful of games more fun.

    That’s a huge reason why I don’t play MP anymore. To get good at MP, you need to play and train on the meta, and if I’m going to play something competitively, I want to get good at it. Whereas with SP, there’s no reason to play the meta if the devs made the game properly. I hate getting OP in SP games, so I avoid playing the meta because wrecking things without any effort just isn’t that fun for me.

    So if you find a game to not be much fun anymore and you’ve put in dozens (or hundreds) of hours, move on, there are plenty of other great games out there.
