I basically suck at Rocket League (can't get beyond Plat.III in any mode), but I still enjoy playing it daily.

Like you'll never be a big fish in a small pond. If you played as much as you currently do but could only play with people local to you, you'd be the best person you know at this thing. And that's a really good feeling. But you'll never get that feeling, because you should really be grinding past whatever plat 3 is in order to not suck.
The big fish eat all the small fish until the big fish are the only ones left.
I have a triple-digit-hour play time and I could barely get out of Bronze. I can't really explain why, but my brain just doesn't mesh with it, skill-wise. It's still a lot of fun though (otherwise I wouldn't have spent so long playing it!). In fact, being so bad at it somehow made it more enjoyable - it's not often I allow myself to be bad at something.
I'd rank myself as "unusually good" at Mario Kart, which is obviously a very different game, but it surprises me that I have such a wide skill gap between the two games.
