I hate battle royale games. Every time I play them i get anxious and nervous, I cant take it anymore

I have played Apex Legends since it came out and I have about 900h between both steam and origin (mostly played during covid).

Since I stopped playing this rage games I feel much better

I've also never liked BR games. Too often it felt like you run around for minutes, looting stuff and nothing happens.

Then you see somebody and kill them without them noticing you. Or.. you get killed the exact same way.

Or when playing with friends. Like Apex, you get into fights with other teams, which is cool, but then third party comes in and owns you from behind.

Then it's over and you've to do everything all over again, running around looting etc.

Or you decide to drop in places where many players drop too. Then you have stupid fist fights or pistole fights. If unlucky, queue again and do it all over again.

This is more annoying than anything else. I prefer joining a fair 5v5 fight on a map where I respawn and keep going. Or real TDM/DM.

I think BR games have too much of a luck factor attached to it compared to oldschool real FPS games like CS, UT, Quake and all that. And I think that exactly is rage inducing.

I completely agree with you. That's why I never managed to stick to BR games :/ Whereas with other genres of shooter games, I have no issue with. It's just sad for me to see a trend of shooter becoming more "Battle Royal-ee" (which from a business standpoint makes sense), because it's simply less games to play. Hopefully, there's still a lot out there !
