I mostly play fighting games nowadays and I think people can learn a lot about mental self-improvement by playing them online. Namely:

• The main one for me: how to accept losses and learn from them. Losing/making mistakes is not the end of the world but an opportunity to learn from, grow and get better. Losing gives you experience if only on what not to do in a given situation
• Not expecting short-term improvement and that you’ll get better at something overnight. Be patient, understand and accept that on some days you’ll be at the top of your game and on others you can’t even think straight. Think in medium-to-long term
• Sometimes losing/making a lot of mistakes will get you mad. And that’s okay. Take a breather if you can.
• Not comparing yourself to others and let yourself get discouraged. Everyone has their own rhythm. Maybe you’ll need to work harder than others on some things. But that’s just how it is sometimes. Keep at it and you’ll eventually see improvements.

First of all, thank you for doing these, more original content is always welcome and appreciated! I really like your writing style and that the subjects you cover are just things you find interesting, whether they’re related or not. Like you said, it’s more of a old gaming blog style, which is cool.

I also played the shit out of Abuse back in the day but never finished it, so thanks for the excuse to give it another go. Although I did find the 15 fps limit added to the charm of the game, so to speak. But I’ll try this new version.
