There was a bot bouncing around Twitch spamming links to sex sites for a while called Elena because every account it used had the same name followed by a random number string. At this point Elena is practically a meme for some streamers.

Lemme tell you, a never-ending barrage of self-deprecating remarks is not a good way to get chix to like you. It took me two years to figure that out.

I remembered why I took a long break from Town of Salem.

Every player is either racist, homophobic, or trolling. They all need a scapegoat every round to vent their frustrations. Mafia is stressful when everybody in the maf flames you for making a simple mistake, which happens every freaking time.
Mistakes, by the way, are seen as things only gay autistic SJW black Jewish women make, and therefore making one gets you nothing but anger.
Trying to have fun in Ranked gets you reported because screw me for joking around a bit, right?
And so much more!

I just need to stop playing it.
It's a fun game, mechanically. It's a great idea, and occasionally, it's really awesome! Getting into a good ranked match with a good mix between jokesters and competitive players is a joy!

But the community is one of the most toxic ones out there, and for a somewhat obscure browser game, that's saying something.
I have to report at least one player every round for either game throwing or harassment, and I am so sick of it.

So my progress in PUBG so far.

1st game: Got one kill with an AK in close quarters then died pretty quickly.
2nd game: Lasted most of the match and died in 7th place with one kill with a kar98
3rd game: Died really early on and somehow survived against a guy with a shotgun in a small room with no ammo, then got sniped a few minutes later
4th game: Died in 7th place again, but got six kills, so im quite proud of myself for this one. All of them with an AKM bar two which were with a silenced semi auto russian shot gun.

I like this game

And i got a sweet vintage white baseball cap from a loot box, so thats something to brighten my day up no problem.

I got this game called Defcon earlier today, and it's surprisingly morbid. Once one of your nukes hits a city, it's just a bright flash followed by the words, "Tokyo hit, 7.8m dead" or something like that. It's hard to explain, but I think it's the most unsettling games I've played in a very long time. When the game reaches DEFCON 1, you hear a klaxon, and then another klaxon for every single nuclear launch that blends into one noise depending on how many have been fired; that, along with the massive words saying "Launches detected" and a usual radiation symbol, combined with the quiet, dark ambient noise and music, and you have a fuckin' depressing game, at least for me.

Yeah, I've seen it on YouTube once. Although the Visuals are limited, the game is very uncomfortable, scary and disturbing. More disturbing than let's say a Mortal Kombat fatality. Maybe it's because deep inside you know there are millions of people dying, or that the earth is going to suffer from nuclear winter forever.

Exactly. Like, even though you know it's just a game and there are no real life consequence, it still hits you (or me anyway) that if it were real, you'd be ending entire families and all of their friends in the blink of an eye, and those people didn't deserve it. It's a game that asks "Do you like hurting people?" without saying a word.

I played defcon when i was younger, solid game, and yeah the effects of watching the nukes bombard the world with the ambient noise and low music was really well done.
