I'd let someone win so I don't look like a try hard or to make them feel happy, nothing wrong with losing but that doesn't mean winning isn't fun.

  • Okay, why is playing to win (being a tryhard) so taboo in gaming? The online arenas are the only place that exists, where trying your best is frowned upon. It needs to stop. And don't use the "it's just a game" argument, because online gaming can be just as competitive as varsity sports or anything else of the sort.

  • Because it implies that you spend too much time there and that it's a problem/addiction.

  • Whoever correlates that to trying your hardest obviously isn't very bright.

  • Trying your hardest isn't actually what a try hard is. I've got a question, how do you get better at stuff?

  • A try hard is someone who uses the best gear possible to win. Simple,. You just do. For Destiny PvP, you practice, improve your aim, learn how to position yourself on the map, among other things. Anyone can improve. It just takes willpower.

  • It doesn't take will power it takes time. A try hard is classified in my book and most people's book of someone who does something for the sake of winning without caring about the entrainment fact.

  • It takes both. To take the time to improve, you need willpower.
