Yes, it is just that question. Obvious or not, do you know why? :) You've been playing this probably for 20 years more or less. What keeps you playing? Or coming back for more? Memories? The competitive aspect? Gameplay & customization? Perhaps the company of good friends? Something else? Go ahead, share :)

I voted "Other reason" because all the above are all equally important and can't sacrifice the other 2 lol.

Hmm, because of this post, I feel that this type of topic is not needed.

Right in time Kradie, when there are maybe 10 ppl left who still play hits game, and 50% of them are moles players..
You should ask "why DONT you play Worms Armageddon" instead, that would be much more interesting question and I want see ppl comments

Excellent question! This can be the topic! Good thinking Mr Kin!

Or rather "why you used to play Worms Armageddon?" ;)

nostalgia + other reason (=i use it as drinking game)

I still play W:A because it is the best game ever made, period.
There's so many ways to play the game and so many skills and competencies to be developed. The game itself never gets boring... what gets boring is playing with randoms who don't know what they're doing. As long as you have skilled and cool people to play with, W:A never gets old.
I have a ton of games and nothing has the addictiveness and replay value of W:A. I have Fortnite, Rocket League, PubG, etc... all of the crap that people think is great these days and none of it was able to keep my attention for more than a week.
-
W:A was the pinnacle of online gaming.
-
Yeah skunk said it well, except I wouldn't waste my money on PubG or Fortnite, I really enjoyed Rocket League to but found it far too easy to get good and got bored quickly as well because I couldn't find anyone with likewise potential to learn with and other players were just idiots...
Only game I am excited for is Monster Hunter World, big fan of the series :)
Last game I got excited for was a major disappointment, Zelda BotW, I got hooked to it for about 20 hours, then suddenly became incredibly bored with the grinding, repetitive Beasts etc, the combat system was awesome, the artwork stunning, but it still wasn't unique enough, they could have made the beasts all individually themed like the temples in OoT :(
Yeah I still play my N64 tbh, any game with potential these days imo is ruined with DLC, p2w etc...
-
Not hard to answer. It's best game ever made. Amount of fun and skill grinding is out of this world.
Ppl who play 20+ years still struggle to get good in some schemes. There's just too many of different tactics and gameplays to learn and master.

It really does feel like I'm going after you but it's stronger than me to not react on these kind of statements.
You aren't good in Rocket League and it's everything but easy to get really good at it.
That game is more "easy to learn, hard to master" than W:A.
There's bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, champion, grand champion rank. Each of the rank have 3 separate levels, and each of separate level have 5 divisions.
There's bunch of TUS members that plays/played it. Few of them I'm familiar with: HHC, Husky, xSniperx, Triad, Xrayez, Marian, Peja, Zexorz, Doben... Each of them probably have 200+ hrs.
I assure you - not one of them will say it's easy to get good. And probably none will say they are actually good.

I beg to disagree
I am in Champ 1 after almost 900 hrs and I still feel like a complete noob. Believe me, there's so many things to learn about this game
To the topic at hand: WA was pretty much the only good multiplayer game I could play on my ancient laptop lol
P.S: It's 4 divisions, Sensei

RL is easy to get worse at, now that is true. ;D

Your signature says Diamond and Platinum though.
Btw, I am with Komo on this one though, playing a lot does not mean you will get good at it, you can have ten times the amount of games and still be worse than someone that is trying to be good. Let's take a look at World of Tanks which I play when there are events.
https://www.blitzstars.com/player/eu/Qnubis
I only have like 4k games in this game which is approx. 350 hours according to Steam. I have reached the status of Unicum, which is better than 99,9% of the players on the server. Above that rank is only super unicum which is better than 99,99% of players. Which I am not too far off. (It starts around 2900 WN8) Now if you compare this to someone that has played 10 times the amount of games like this guy:
https://www.blitzstars.com/player/eu/jonty_2014
He has played SOOOO many more games than me, yet he is worse because he is a worse gamer over-all. I strongly believe that everyone has a hidden potential in gaming and no matter how much you play you will plateau. In any game I wanted to become good at I have managed to do that at a very high level. I think Csongi has like 1,7k hours in CS:GO and I had like 250 yet I was able to keep up with him mechanically in terms of aiming etc. I just didn't have map knowledge because I rarely play. So for example if you say Peja didn't manage to reach rank xy after z hours. I am not surprised. If Mablak played RL for 1k hours and wasn't at top level I would believe it is hard.

Yeah, Anubis gets it.
Honestly Sensei, I feel like I have an ability you don't.
I can master almost anything I am interested in faster than most people can when I put my mind to it, this is simply because i'm fiercly competitive and ridiculously curious/addicted to things I enjoy, utterly fascinated!
I've played games religiously since I was a toddler, i've spent most of my life playing games and have VERY good understanding of how to adapt to any gaming enviroment/physics engine.
The controls for Rocket League are simple, and also similar to other games i've played, it's not rocket science, it's easy, all it takes is passion and practise, creativity and good reactions.
Also, the fact you even think the way you do, holds you back, you need confidence and self belief, you don't seem to have it, I do.
I can look failure in the face and accept it, learn from it, adapt and improve.
I look at you playing and honestly think you are an average player, you don't take the game anywhere near as serious as I take gaming in general, I have a good sense for finding talent/potential and you lack enough passion/dedication/seriousness to become a great player at the highest level.
I've already lost interest for Rocket League because of my experience, and I don't think I could ever get the interest back because i've already moved onto new games/experiences.
What Anubis said about map knowledge etc, knowing the layout is very crucial to most games as well.
I'm not trying to be cheeky or belittle you, it's just my perspective of things from experience.
-
Having fun is the fundamental reason I played for many years, and the reason I still read these forums.
-
Rocket league is simple, I dont know what depth there is. Drive your car and shoot goals. I played 15 mins, its cool, but nothing groundbreaking.
-
Anubis... One thing it is to make a result in something and give up.
But to not achieve anything at all and say: "This is too easy, I'm bored" , is something completely different.
https://clips.twitch.tv/LightWealthyPigYouWHY - this is komo.
https://clips.twitch.tv/DrabTransparentKimchiRedCoat - this is what you'd call a good rocket league player.
Before sharing that crap "i have abbility, i'm awesome.. all of you are underneath me when it comes to everything i put my hands onto" - do something to prove it. Otherwise, I'll just be around to burst that bubble you live in.
That goes for every egotripper I stumble upon. Don't take it personally.
-

I didn't say I was specifically good in everything xD (it's just standard 2s and 3s I do decent at and I keep alternating between Diamond 3 and Champ 1 :<, and yes I'm a terrible 1s player xd)
-
Sensei I have potential but still need practise lmao.
I never said I was good anyway just I could be.

Well, it depends how many hours he had at that point. If that clip is from the first 20 hours or something I wouldn't see that as proof he sucks, just him being new. I have no idea about this whole RL endeavor of you and Komo and I only "brag" about games I am genuinely good at. You won't see me telling you I would master RL in a couple hours since I would not enjoy the game and thus not become passionate about it. I really dislike football, I did not even watch the World Cup at all. Seems like I didn't miss much anyway when I look at the German performance, but hey, a german CS:GO team managed to go to the finals and got 2nd place in Cologne ESL One. :D
-
Well to be honest, I have 88 hours of Rocket League, but most of that was leaving the game running, maybe 20-40 hours is actual playtime, and that clip was fairly early on, not to mention the fact it's harder to improve faster when you are playing with noobs.
If I could sit with the best in the world, if they were patient enough, I would bet my life I could be as good as them within a year, possibly even better, but that would only even work if we all got along as friends and had a similar sense of humour and values in life too.
Unfortunately this is something you will never understand Sensei, ever it seems.

Lemme just give a call to Kronovi
Would you like a fine cocktail as well during your training sessions? :P

Just some ice cold Irn Bru will do Marian thanks :)

No Irn Bru, just no....
Nasty stuff!

Still confused why people in scotland dont just drink scotch all the time, that's what I would be doing if i lived near the mccallan and lagavulin distilleries
-
Yeah, I don't like Whiskey, or Haggis...
But i'm a true Scotsman remember? :D
