Are some aoe 3 players sociopaths?

Post by Zhanson10 »

I find people who play this game who boggle my mind. Piroshiki is an example, playing 20k games as spain, doing the same strat each time. I can't imagine how that guy could maintain that without being bored sick of the game. Theres this guy wenwen who has played 4k games and does the same thing each game, and hes only pr 13. Howwwwwwwww. And then theres other whackjobs like greatscythe who only plays 1v1 as german on Great plains, day in and day out. Like I see him hosting that same game title every time, at any hour of the day. Are some people who play aoe 3 just a little crazy, or is it just me?

piroshiki先生 interacts a lot with his viewers when he streams, actually.

There are players who simply enjoy doing the same thing every time. If it works, why not?

I guess sometime they do it to perfect their strategy, however many of them don't improve. Don't forget HoHiHoHi and Duck_Daniels :P

It would make more sense I think if they improved/learnt from their mistakes, at least more quickly. Piro for example despite 20k games still has relatively poor micro for his level, however I think he has improved if you look at old recs vs modern ones.

Judging by your OP, I doubt you really know what the word means. Regardless, it appears that some are indeed.

A to me seemingly more wide-spread disorder in the community is inferiority – or shall I say Napoleon – complex.

Do you really understand the meaning of the word? Like truly comprehend it's deep meaning and the rich history of the word? Are you human or are you dancer?

Yeah, its quite smart actually. No decent players join on amazonia so its a decent why to get a noob to join withoutbhaving to kick tons of players.

TIL Sociopath = not getting bored from doing the same strategy over and over again.

haha I played greatsythe , 1vs1 unrated gp plays german. It must get boring doing the same strat all the time, but each to their own. I have only played 68 rated sup games and used a whole bunch of civs and strats, which I think has helped me improve .

anyway i think that the main problem aoe players have is Dissociative identity disorder ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociat ... y_disorder ) and not sociopathy .. people with 5 to 12-13 accounts should go to be checked imo :p
