Competitive gaming takes away all the fun. I think the stress and frustration do not compensate the wins.
You play to relax but gets stress 90% of the time You dedicate an absurd of time to it like in a sport, but it has no benefits to health. You have a limited amount of time in your day to experience different things but then you get dragged to the same 3 button mashing over and over.
Obviously, it is not for me. So, again, don't take it seriously. Maybe someone can answer and give some good counter points that may convince me that it is worth it.
I use a separate computer for games. Multiple for different games. Just because they have egregious amount of access to stuff like the hardware profile and the ability to run anything with full privileges doesn't mean I want to also have phone number nonsense on top of that.
