Ey. If you'd like to see more from me on a regular basis, check out my twitter @theRazbuten, and also follow me on me on Twitch for streams or whatever: www.twitch.tv/razbuten In general, I just wanna say that I hope you're all staying safe in this scary and weird time. One silver-lining that has come from this is that now my wife (more locally known as the Lady I Live With) is working from home, so we will have a little more time to record stuff for this series, and she will even be able to drop in for some streams every once and awhile. I've got a lot of big ideas for the series and channel as a whole, and I look forward to being able to share them with you all over the next few months. As always feel free to leave your recommendations for games you'd like us to cover in this series. Have a good one, and see you soon. Edit: I changed the thumbnail because I didn't really like how it looked on YT (the bright colors from that Fortnite picture didn't really mesh well with the color scheme I like to use for Gaming For A Non-Gamer, and while I think it looks fine in Photoshop, when things are shrunk down and compressed on YT, it looks less fine). I know most of you don't care, probably, but just in case you were like "what the fuck? why did the thumbnail change?" this is why. I am weird. Sorry.
You should go back to R6S with your wife. The newcomer playlist should let her become a litte bit more familiar with the game. Don't try during a free weekend though, because there are smurfs everywhere.
The amazing thing about league players is that you can be sitting at 1/10/0 and still find a way to think everyone else screwed you over. We’ve all done it.
@@Tobascodagama You are correct. MOBA's as a genre naturally lead people towards being assholes (if someone told me to make a game designed to make people as toxic as possible while still being addictive enough for them to play it'd look extremely similar to a MOBA), and as we all know, the more people involved in something the more assholes there are. LoL became the biggest MOBA by far, so it only makes sense that it has the worst playerbase.
I'd love a video of this where SHE got to pick the games herself based on the cover, the story, mechanics, whatever. A literal free-for-all. Any genre, literally anything goes.
@@darksky7507 Yes, yes, yes! As someone who also doesn't have much background in gaming, my and my person who is a gamer have been doing alot of him playing things and me trying to follow along and occasionally help make in-game decisions that he follows playing. I'm increasingly helping him pick the stories, so getting some input about what it's like at a minimal skill level to just kindatry to pick and play stuff from someone so similar to me would be facinating.
@@ToastyStuff all jokes aside that would honestly be pretty interesting, the game overwhelmes new players with 50,000 calls from people all telling them to buy different shit they can’t afford yet and doesn’t do a particularly brilliant job of telling new players how they can go about making money, which to be honest there aren’t that many great ways of doing it apart from the treasure hunts which can be quite hard for new players who probably don’t know all the locations in the pictures, and some don’t even have pictures, you just have to find random stuff around the map that isn’t marked in any way, it teaches the basic controls and a few core mechanics like driving and after that you’re on your own, maybe the story mode would be better at teaching her how to play and then she could try online after she felt comfortable with the controls and basic idea of the game
Lol is for math nerds. It’s barely a game. My calculator could do better than I could with advanced strategy. Playing lol is like rubbing your brain on a grindstone, rather than using it in the intended way.
It was one of the most heartbreaking things I have heard. I say it all the time, but when I say it, it's in anger or even determination. When I heard it here, it was in utter despair.
She has no idea what soul shattering actually is. Razbuten whatever you do, do not let her play Bloodborne unless you want her to remain the same person she is now.
@@enisserifi926 you do realize that as of the end of the 2020 season, plat 4 and up makes up the top 20% of LoL ranked players? Diamond 1 and up makes the top 3%. I don't understand why everyone thinks these are low on the ladder lol
@@JayInDecent the community is so fucking toxic, you can carry the team getting most of the kills pushing the objectives, but if you can't 1v5 the enemy team, miss a ping or sone other minor mistake, you're literally Hitler or worse. Even if you only play against bots you still get shit. No one will help teach how to play and if you are on you teams bad side which is easy to do, they will spite you till your teams defeat.
@@fitmotheyap that's legit what every single one of us says let's be real league attracts a certain type of creatures and turns normal people into the said certain type of creatures we are hard coded to be toxic dicks with fast reaction time and split second decision making (ivern mains are excluded)
@@iLLya_ eh i actually rarely flame unless it's my friends since i know they can play good but keep feeding like shit and not farming undertower when there is hard counters
That was the funniest shit. You know he didnt want to break her heart there :D But honestly its the games fault for matching her with people who are good at the game already.
Multiplayer is honestly the most intimidating space in any game. I think that’s why most of us prefer solo play or multiplayer that has no big effect on others beside you as a solo player. That’s probably why Among Us and Fall Guys got so popular
@@louiskonerding7502 - I’ve been gaming for 30 years. Even though online shit talking FPS are the most popular, it doesn’t describe every gamer. I like games that use team work and make me think. I’m not a bad FPS player but I get bored very quickly. I’d rather play survival games with my friends than the alternative. Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
@@jamesweston4089 Where did that line about cocaine come from? And i was just saying that online games are just in general the most popular. I didnt say anything about how one is better than the other. Both options are valid its just a thing of preference
@@louiskonerding7502 - The cocaine line comes from what you’d need to excel at 1st person shooters online. That or a mountain of energy drinks. I wasn’t commenting back at you, more like agreeing with the people who aren’t playing games competitively.
@@adjmonkey i have met alot of amazing people in LoL. You guys only think of thr negative but forget thr positives. LoL is byfar thr most played game in the world by a huge margin so ofc it will have more toxic people...also more awesome players.
I have to say, I appreciate your wife being willing to keep doing these experiements, even though the odds of her enjoying a game seem low a majority of the time.
I'm a casual MOBA player, I've played Dota a long time ago and play Mobile Legends. I don't have my own pc so I played on mobile. I started playing both to join in on friends. I started playing as ranged characters in both games but eventually I got used to playing tank because nobody picks tank when I play solo. I started playing LoL, I've played only a handful of games because I don't have my own computer to play it on. I enjoyed playing a Garen and got an S+ rating (Don't really know what that means), I didn't even know that he was a tank when I picked him. The thing is, I wanna try playing as other characters but I know I'm going to be pretty bad on how to use them.
Zytran L which is why there are 2 things you should do - always play atleast 3-5 games (or more, depends on the character) against bots to get a feeling for the character, understand their abilities and so on. The other one is muting every other player out there and to play without allchat (you can take it off in the settings). Because in League, you will have atleast 1 smurf every game, i.e, a player, that has played the game a lot and is leveling up a new account. They, most likely, will be toxic to new players, like yourself. And it sucks, I really hate, what the community has become, but it is what it is.
@@CarlDeer The main reason I can't practice against bots that often is I only play 2 to 3 games per session, and those sessions can have weeks to months in gap because I can't play at home. (Even longer now because of the current situation) Until I have my own pc, I don't think that's going to change. Maybe next time, I'll try a different hero. Got any suggestions on champions with roles people don't normally pick when playing solo.
"There are 3 lanes for players to go down and only 5 people on a team, so everyone is going to be fairly spread out...due to her being solo queued...she assumed her teammates were doing nothing, and therefore hated them" This has to be the best summary of League solo queue I've heard in a long time, even at higher levels.
For a first time player? Yeah, without outside help or watching other people player you won't really understand league tactics or possibly even roles when you first play.
@@MelaLabelle No, for any player. It's super common for teammates to flame each other thinking they are doing nothing, when in reality it's a big map with a lot of moving parts, and most people are usually doing something. The key here is that players are usually not on the same page. Players' actions are based on a difference of opinion, rather than a right vs wrong, and most don't see that.
@@curo. The thing is I've been from bronze to Diamond and everyone who does better in one game will act better than everyone else but when they do badly they always keep quiet or blame something. The reason people do this from bottom to high level of play is that they don't understand the game enough or they don't care enough just to focus on themselves and get better
@@steelths1781 I think what League and GTA multiplayer players can both understand, it's easier to hate there team when the helicopter they crashed is half way across the country and you didn't see all the rockets being shot at them.
@@play4cake671 I know, it's just on league you can see everything that's happening really easily and it's more about understand what is the right thing to do in each situation
@@willowsinclaire I had friends introduce me to league. Although we were playing beginner/intermediate bots, we had lots of fun. That's how I got hooked. So basically, play with friends first then once you sell your soul to the game, you can stop playing with them
@@PhillipAmthor it not noob fantasy. Difficulty setting is good for everyone if you are good sure go on hardmode but if you are bad you can still enjoy the game by playing no easymode. It not player fault to not be good. people have different life not everyone have time to investing in a game. Do you know why RTS was not that popular anymore and why Nintendo game was so popular because everyone can enjoy Nintendo game but not RTS.
jukrin mongkhol dude, you can’t change difficulty in a online game, so if you don’t like not having control of the difficulty, play a single player game, also it was a meme
This brings a tear to my eye. Thinking about me teaching my sister how to play Minecraft and rocket league. She now enjoys playing with me so much she won’t leave me alone. Sharing games with those you love is truly the best experience I’ve ever had and this video perfectly reflects that.
It really is one of the best feelings ever. My friends and I aren't able to play some games together cause they don't have the same console or they wouldn't be able to run it without their laptop blowing up lol. That's why when we find something we can play together it's a great moment. I remember when Pokemon Unite came out we would play so much. It was so much fun playing together and even when it got competitve at times, and we were losing, it was a great experience cause we'd be laughing while watching each other run away or get knocked out. Playing with friends really takes the stress off games like that and it really turns into a fond memory
i actully was playing dota 2 with bots but my brother never told me they were bots i accidently quit the game clicking a random button and when i reopened the game and i couldn't re-enter i felt like i let the whole team down i asked my brother and he didn't want to response so i deduced that i did and cried for over an hour just to hear him talking to his friend and asking how many games vs bots should he play before unlocking pvp to play together
@@carterpaulette66When League was still in Beta I reluctantly leveled to level 13 because hey "It'll get better when I get to level 30 because I'll be able to group up with my friends" I've revisited it a few years ago because friends wanted to play with me but never got much further than that. I was already exposed to the toxicity of the MOBA genre due to the prevalence of DOTA in Warcraft 3 but League brought it to a whole other level.
Yeah mobas are like no joke the most complicated shit ever like if u were to explain it all to a person it would look like that fram of charlie from always sunny in philadelphia with the conspiracy shit
@@maskett653 Yeah i remember a youtuber called Bricky took the piss out of it in a video where he was like in CSGO you shoot the other person and in League U kill these small guys to get gold or u dont to freeze the wave then u use the wave to push towers or set up for neutral objectives that van give u a giant advantage with gold u buy items which u get a lot stronger from but u also gain exp... and so on ol
LoL is a nightmare, but try the old MW2 lobbies, the only thing that keeps LoL toxicity from being out of hands is the fact that it doesn't have a voice chat for random teammates
I'm pretty experienced in most games I play online and STILL feel this in the back of my mind when playing. I can only imagine how bad that feeling is for someone with a larger experience gap to overcome.
The point about worrying about letting your team down really resonated, that exact thought has deterred me from playing so many games. It's really good to know other people have the same concern
@@GameFuMaster nah knowing how to use your keyboard correctly doesn't mean you know how to play the game,... I'm at best a gold 4 player with Nautilus and only Nautilus,at least last season didn't play much ranked beside the 10 games you gotta do for knowing where you should start. So with most of the other champs it's mid tier silver or low silver cause I don't have a feeling/good intuition for them. Adding thatI still don't know how to : set wards perfectly/where it's unneacessery, wave manipulation, roaming I suck at roaming and so I've never tried roaming, over extending 1-5 times too often leading to loose the game ect. There are a lot of micro and macro stuff one has to approach to consider themself okayish/not completly trash. Than I would say one knows how to play the game/has a vague or good understanding of the game.
@@chong_jos_ Well it's easy to see and call out the obviously stupid mistakes, the mistakes which Happen on a Micro lvl are far more difficult. And the Higher the lvl is the more Micro/macro mistakes there are to solve. Like Nobody in silver and Gold says : I lost because I missed one Minion Worth of experience and when you Go to high elo and pros they be like : He lost 2 - 3 Minions that lane is over/already won. So yeah
12:30 man, seeing her have this kind of reaction and genuine explosive joy from her after seeing so much of her failure and dissapointment, and even doubt in herself... it made me cry in happiness for her.
@@Gee-xb7rt Ok, watch our matches. I play with friends very frequently. I have all chat off, we win some, we lose some, we get tilted, we get pumped. But no shitstorms, we do that between matches, in the bathroom.
Well, that is the LoL player stereotype... Sadly, I constantly feel the unbearable "did I let everyone down" in that game too and just quit before even playing my first ranked game as I really hate the aspect that I can just straight up ruin the enjoyment for everyone if I play worse than the others in the match.
@@lollllloro You really shouldn't care how you perform on casual matches. The whole point of playing a match that isn't ranked it to practice and improve. It takes a lot of time to get the hang of the game - anyone who tells you League is an "easy to learn, hard to master" game never got around learning the kits and intereactions of 150 characters, I assure you.
@@Doppelier I agree to some degree. But it's no surprise this person feels that way. Not only is it 100% possible to make a match for the rest of your team an unenjoyable 15 minutes to an HOUR, most will let you know when they're unhappy with you. The most common mentality is to take the game super seriously, not play around with. Many people who play casual matches just doesn't like the ranked system or they're fine-tuning their skills on something they're not as used to. I wish people would have more opportunities to try out things that are simply fun. The only gamemode that is forgiving enough to let you do this tends to be ARAM. But often times players just make a new account so they've got an excuse even if they make their team lose. Those are my advice, and to mute everyone... or simply don't play this game. But changing your own attitude towards yourself could surely help too. Everyone makes mistakes and as long as you're trying you shouldn't blame yourself so hard that you see yourself as a failure, just because you fail sometimes.
As a support player I am frustrated because support is a great role if your team appreciates it but boy I can't even begin to count the amount of matches where we had a team of some fancy class and got rekt because I was the only one that understood that a game with roles should fulfil these roles.
@@dionrodman8829 When there are so many people on a team and noone feels the need to pick a support class, that's a comfortable way to carry a team from the back. It's also good when you are a subtle ego type of guy. Sure, your DPS is high enough to whipe out the whole enemy team under the right circumstances but you live and die because of my guiding hand. Support has a powerful place because if a game is good, it makes the difference between an ok team and a great team. It's the same thing that is fun about playing "commander" in all party based game modes. You are the back bone, the foundation; your buffs and heals are what keeps the frontline on the offensive until the foe is whipped out. And the thing is, once you have played a few rounds where you wanted to play offensively as a damage dealer and reckt everything only to slowly bleed out because your whole damn team had the same plan as you but not the understanding to back it up; you have to make a choice. Do I trust one of those good for nothing fools to play what's essentially the game changer OR simply pick my favorite support who can be offensively as well and allow my team to win. I think picking support to me is a reaction to avoid frustration because people tend to pick a class and then be hellbent only playing that class until the end of times and with noone every picking support, that leaves us with the only choice of either quit playing because the morons forgot to take any kind of items to prolong their sorry existence again or be the better man and just pick support which is also why I stopped playing most multiplayer titles alone. When you basically play the same character all the time, it becomes apparent very quickly that support is the most ungrateful positon in a team.
@@krichntaco7482 cmon, an really inexperient player on a dark souls enviorment wouldnt really use embers or humanity so there wouldnt really be a multiplayer, and dark souls multplayer is very dynamic if you think about it but its very limited, you cant even play a full coop from the start to end for example because ghosts stop on bosses and all that
When I played Overwatch, as an inexperienced FPS-er, I really liked playing Roadhog because his health is so high that I basically didn't need to worry about it and could focus on the rest of the game. That and his hook-shoot combo was very easy to grasp. Within a single session, I was already figuring out strategies and setting records on my friend's account for staying on the objective.
I was also good at Mercy, but I didn't really enjoy her. I didn't really find alternating between two buttons all that fulfilling. I hear people who play her like getting big resurrection combos and that's where the fun is, but idk I'm not really a healer type.
I'm not a multiplayer gamer, but I did play Overwatch a LOT as Lucio! I liked feeling helpful as a healer, and not having to worry about my own health because of how he heals made me feel confident enough to get the rare kill!
I’m a support player and I still care more about getting kills than supporting. I literally care only about my allies when they’re friends or bcs they have more do’s than I.
@@ivanleung8042 I feel good playing Lux because I stun and I let jungler or some other dude take the kill. On the other hand, I don't get too many kills and I'm sad.
I felt so bad for her when she said those things like "I'll just lose more" and "can i play an easier level?". Like it was heartbreaking because we've all been there but she's so new!
@@KP_Uravity Yeah and? Saying "I'll just lose more" is a poor attitude going into literally anything. I get why she said that, I probably would have too. But that doesn't really make it any better
As someone who had played LoL for 10 years, slightly longer than half of my life and having introduced multiple people to the game whom I subsequently taught the mechanics I can say it takes months to even begin to understand the game for most experienced gamers. I cant imagine how it goes for sb who has almost not played any games
I like to imagine you coming into the living room with a notepad and a labcoat and glasses:"It's study time." Then you boot all the consoles and computer and the lady you live with's like wide-eyed:"Oh no!"
It would be interesting to see your wife's reaction to cooperative online games like FFXIV. Competitiveness often makes people more aggressive and the whole environment of a game tough to stay in.
It is. Its frustrating if you're a filthy try hard like myself, but ultimately its really cool to see their reactions. I did the same thing with the lady I live with
@@desire9308 Oh gosh the freezing up. Mine really likes League and when something happens she completely forgets about moving, skills, and acts like a intro bot. Its painful, but her genuine reaction to things I've been desensitized to, things that I expect at this point but shes fascinated by, reminds me why I love video games myself.
@@FrenchysPlaysTV same here she mainly plays league or wild rift to be exact because I play league a lot. I remember her first reaction was just “this looks complicated asf are you sure this is the right game”
That cheer after her rocket league goal was some of the most wholesome stuff I've seen in gaming. THATS why we dedicate so much time to them. That's what we want.
They've added so many features exclusive to new players nowadays, the amount of in game currency and characters they unlock is pretty insane. Also the new tutorials are way way better than the old ones. I would say it is a lot more welcoming now than it used to be.
Shadow not only that, the bots have had their AI improved a lot, so now playing against bots is also not as stupidly boring and helps new players more. The community is toxic af though.
I love this series so much! My bf being a true gamer and me being a relatively new gamer, there are quite a few things that he doesn't understand why I don't get -- and sometimes I don't know how to explain, but you manage to verbalise a lot of my feelings and my troubles when I play games. Also it's nice to see I'm not the only one struggling :')
I hope I'm not being condescending when I say 12:34 is the most adorable thing I've ever seen (or, heard in this case) That kind of thing makes me understand why so many people love being teachers or parents. Watching someone improve at something under your guidance is one of the most rewarding feelings imaginable
There is no need to be scared of letting people down. The best professionals in the world sometimes fail & let their team down. But unfortunately, people arent always aware of that and will often shove your mistakes down your throat. And that is why its better to play with your real life friends.
And that's why I only ever play ranked on games I am 10000% confident in. I didn't play R6 ranked for the first two years I had the game for, and to this day I only play comp CS if I know my team will only have my friends.
"The more time a player spends being bored, frustrated or confused, the less likely they are to enjoy the game" tell that to the Escape from Tarkov community
I just want to throw some praise to the real MVP in this video: The lady you live with. For her to agree to and endure your experiments with her at the cost of her sanity, unknowingly being thrown into one of the worst meatgrinders in gaming to provide you with data for a 17 min video is admirable. This goes to you, Lady you live with; Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
"She was worried none of them wanted to play with her." Don't worry after playing decades of video games I still have that feeling too. You're not going to get rid of that if you're that type of person. This is not just for new players.
Not with that attitude! Although I can't speak from first hand experience, but I have a friend who is newer to video games than me, and I was there when he was plainly "new" at video games(even though that was 5 years ago). I played with him all of the games in this video, plus Siege and Apex, and I remember often hearing he doesn't want to play anymore because he's feeling like shit for "keeping us down", particularly in Rocket League and Apex. And we kept telling him we don't care - as long as he's trying his best. And it took repeating that probably at least twice a week for like three years, and now I don't remember the last time I heard him say something like that. On top of that, in the games we did keep playing regularly together, he is slowly but visibly catching up in skill level. You could argue cause vs effect here ofc, but I'd say he stopped blaming himself and THEN got good, rather than the other way around! :)
I’ve been playing MMOs for at least a decade now. I have never played a ranked game, let alone draft picks, just because it’s felt like such a foreign concept and I didn’t want to upset real people for messing up their gaming experience.
I feel that all the time too, even sometimes in games like dark souls when summoning a phantom lol, im afraid im gonna do something really stupid that will piss them off even though ill never meet them again
The weird thing about tutorials is how people fluent in the "language" of video games seem to hate them, but these videos prove they are a necessity to stop, or at least diminish, gatekeeping. Like, the FF7 demo had what I would consider to be really obtrusive tutorials that were walls of text, but someone who just picked up FF7 cause they thought it looked cool might actually really need and appreciate them. Good on you to point this out as explicitly as you do!
I wish there were different skill floors to tutorials. Like sometimes it's frustrating because I already can figure out how to do shit but then I will miss important info that was later in the tutorial.
@@LylWren Too me it usually feels like the tutorials are always targeted towards the dumbest or maybe youngest player, and you feel like an idiot instead of beeing proud you learned a skill.
The lack of skill is not gatekeeping. People who didn't play the game should read tutorial, that is an obvious fact. People who hate tutorials - hate mandatory ones, and i agree with Razbuten here, that they should NOT be mandatory, but heavily advised to new players.
@@just0sex0fever I agree that tutorials shouldn't be mandatory, but there are often toxic people in (voice) chat who complain about new players, and that I would call gatekeeping.
@@wowanothercookie Toxicity is toxicity, and it's always bad of course. But just wanting to play with players of your level isn't necessarily bad, and it also isn't the fault of those new players. It's the fault of the matchmaking, but the anger just kind of gets retargeted towards them, unfortunately. Not trying to negate your comment, just clarifying a bit
i literally never play video games and when my friend made me play one, it was just a lot of her yelling “press ____ button” and me yelling back “i don’t know where that one is!” so i feel these videos.
I never had a console, so every time I play on a friend's console it goes as following: -Press R2 *Starts pressing random buttons* - No that's L2, that's R1, THAT ONE IS X! oh my god just press this one! *Friend presses R2 for me* Also, aim. I do NOT know how to aim with a controller. Even if I'm in a FPS I'd rather punch my way through. Which apparently makes him nervous since it's "dangerous to let a zombie approach you" f that.
People tend to forget that. They play for hours to "get good". Make a game into a job. A game can be hard to master but it should always be easy to learn and that's something I find extremley frustrating. If I have to watch 10 hours of tutorials to understand fortites building AND practice it without playing the game, it ruins the fun because it isn't fun
Something I'm glad you touched on was how other game modes aren't just stepping stones to the "real game". For many players, those modes are the destination. Every time a developer shares statistics for how much each game mode is played, I'm shocked by how few players even touch PvP. For example, it's only about 10 - 20% of RTS players.
Me, a learning programmer: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN The whole plan is to not only get players to join that know how to play, but also to build a player base of people who don't really know how to game. This is one of the better ways to learn how those who don't game would operate in this situation. I absolutely love this series.
"Get out of here Lacy, you're fat!" *Dying of surprise and laughter* "That was- *gasp* that was so mean!" I remember when I too was surprised at people talkin trash at others on the internet for seemingly no reason.
I remember when I was in college, I was slightly taken aback when I heard the N bomb for the first time. I hadn't heard it since I was 11 years old and really angry at everyone all the time (to my defense, I had been in a group home surrounded by wannabe Crips for 6 years at that point). Anyway, it was jarring. I forget what game it was; it was a long time ago.
3:00 that would also mean they have to remake the tutorial every time they change the roles or rework a hero, I honestly feel like tutorial is one of the hardest part to make right in a video game
True, but with how much information there is to learn in Overwatch, it's sad that they don't at least have a "how to play" tutorial for each game mode (control, payload, 2CP), as well as a basic tutorial for each hero. It took me over a year from when my friends convinced me to buy Overwatch to actually start playing the game on a regular basis because I felt overwhelmed and lost. And this is the experience of someone who has not only played video games since childhood (admittedly mostly single player games), but who also had friends willing to show me how to play. Imagine the perspective of someone who has to go in completely blind.
yeah, but I think that they should put in the effort. bad tutorials just ruined so many gaming experiences for me, and i've been gaming since i was 4 years old
As someone with several disability who loved video games, I really love the series as it makes feel less alone. I always struggle with other gamers take for granted they just get. So thank you for this.
Reminds me, I know of this guy who plays League with his whole body, he's stuck on a bed. Uses multiple equipment to make all the commands work. For other people, a Penta is a one-off happy needle thing. For my eyes and his, it must have felt like a trip of adrenaline, a ride to the sky.
LunarSkyWolf7 It more physical for me that I do not have reflexes for quick reactions to a game. Or hand eye coordination to play certain games. Which is why telling me to “Get Good is meaningless advise as it physically impossible to play certain games.
lol, I play ffxiv a little too much because its Japanese and if you are a toxic pos they have no qualms kicking your butt out. Everyone behaves because they have to.
I know a lot of people who are getting into gaming for the first time because they saw people talking about ACNH and thinking it looked good - I think it would be interesting to see her approach games that have a really wide player base and what you think about how they garner such a large playerbase.
Her reaction to when she made that goal in rocket League was fantastic. Makes me think about how I miss these kind of moment when I sucked at everything. That's when you get the highest moment in gaming imo. Once you're good you either do good or suck. When you're bad, you're either doing okay or extraordinary. Dang.
I'd be lying if I didn't cry from laughing at how fucking shit some of my bronze/silver RL games were. Now the games where I get that much enjoyment out of are few in between at C2. It's a cycle of tilt-take a break - be a musty for 2 games - tilt - rinse and repeat
Yeah kinda this way; I don't feel any satisfaction from playing games anymore because it's just things I've seen a thousand times and when I underperform according to my standards, it becomes unbearable rage and it feels like I shamed my family and dishonored them lmao. I got into more serious competition eventually because I simply get no emotion from gaming anymore (except for games with stories, which is mostly what I play nowaday).
I just wanted to give a heartfelt thank you to, "The Lady you Live with" because she is taking a huge hit to the ego by letting us all see this. The main reason I want to thank her though, is this series may very well encourage a lot more beginners to try out games. Girls or otherwise. So, thank you very much for your sacrifice Lady who lives with Razbuten.
"a huge hit to her ego" I mean if you're not invested in gaming & care about it, it probably doesn't affect your ego at all. I'm not particularly interested in art and also bad, still I wouldn't care at all showing others how bad I am, bc it's not important to me to be good at it. So gamers & non-gamers egos are differently affected by showing the world their skill at gamig
Watching this series just solidified the importance of who you enjoy playing with. Speaking from past experience, I used to think I’m hot-garbage at fps games because I didn’t do well in a couple matches with friends, and I held onto that truth for 5 years. Until my new (and current) friends came a long and urge me to play some fps with them, I was reluctant at first but eventually gave in. Turn out I am average at best, and actually quite enjoy clicking heads. The friends I had just didn’t care enough about my experience and put me against high level opponents (I found this out shortly after the session ended, but didn’t care enough to actually pursue).
I love how she hated LoL and didn't even get to knowing how much she should hate the community, it's one of those games you hate more the more you play
Matt Bas-Vi I feel like LoL is just a game most people play and immediately dislike or like. I’m used to playing FPS shooters or rpg’s so the weird moving system (to me) and the abilities just felt awkward and stupid. The same exact thing probably happens to her after she played games in which movement was based on WASD, not mouse clicking
@@personperson8563 Nah, in this case not knowing what's happening and all you have to learn is influential, but the main issue is the community, I've played since season 2 and barely touch it nowadays, and it's all because of that.
I like RTS games (Battle for Middle Earth, Age Of Empires and Total War games mostly) but I hate microing a single character so for my MOBA fix I play Smite and used to play Awesomenauts a lot before it died.
I feel like where online games really shine is playing with people you know. Even if you're not good, you're having a good time together. The feeling that you're ruining the game for everyone also goes away when you're talking to them online and hear that you're all simply having fun.
Yeah I agree with this, that's why it's so hard to maintain enthusiasm for a game when you don't have any friends to play with (anymore, in some cases)
I definitely agree, with one caveat. Mobas actively punish you for losing, and makes you sit through it. Dota is extremely daunting for new players for that reason, not even the mentor system can salvage those problems.
Very true, me and my gf play some lol nowadays, she introduced it to me, okay?! But, when we do play together, sometimes we just don't care if we win or not, we just have fun spending time with each other
@@tamara293 depends on your mindset. Make friends with people who are okay with everyone trolling for the shits and gigs, and league can be so fun just like any other game Will forever remember the day my Akali jg ended in a snowball because I had a yuumi mid
Ey. If you'd like to see more from me on a regular basis, check out my twitter @theRazbuten, and also follow me on me on Twitch for streams or whatever: www.twitch.tv/razbuten
In general, I just wanna say that I hope you're all staying safe in this scary and weird time. One silver-lining that has come from this is that now my wife (more locally known as the Lady I Live With) is working from home, so we will have a little more time to record stuff for this series, and she will even be able to drop in for some streams every once and awhile. I've got a lot of big ideas for the series and channel as a whole, and I look forward to being able to share them with you all over the next few months. As always feel free to leave your recommendations for games you'd like us to cover in this series. Have a good one, and see you soon.
Edit: I changed the thumbnail because I didn't really like how it looked on YT (the bright colors from that Fortnite picture didn't really mesh well with the color scheme I like to use for Gaming For A Non-Gamer, and while I think it looks fine in Photoshop, when things are shrunk down and compressed on YT, it looks less fine). I know most of you don't care, probably, but just in case you were like "what the fuck? why did the thumbnail change?" this is why. I am weird. Sorry.

You should go back to R6S with your wife. The newcomer playlist should let her become a litte bit more familiar with the game. Don't try during a free weekend though, because there are smurfs everywhere.

The amazing thing about league players is that you can be sitting at 1/10/0 and still find a way to think everyone else screwed you over. We’ve all done it.

Wow incredible, even a totally new player will hate their teammates as much as an experienced player in League of Legends.
League truely is the most toxic game ever made LMAOOOO
the chosen one
Was LoL specifically designed to make you hate your teammates or was it a happy accident?
I didn't in the beginning. I knew I was really bad. But when I got better then worse players started to irk me with their decisions or lack of.
It really wasn't that hard to figure out. XD

Maybe she has a really good future as a pro player of LoL.
She was CSing pretty well is that one clip where she was Bot with 2 others.
It's fascinating, because it points to a way that LoL's toxicity is a natural outcome of its design, not *just* a feature of the community.
@@Tobascodagama Oh yes human beings have zero agency and its all games fault.
@@Tobascodagama You are correct. MOBA's as a genre naturally lead people towards being assholes (if someone told me to make a game designed to make people as toxic as possible while still being addictive enough for them to play it'd look extremely similar to a MOBA), and as we all know, the more people involved in something the more assholes there are. LoL became the biggest MOBA by far, so it only makes sense that it has the worst playerbase.
I'd love a video of this where SHE got to pick the games herself based on the cover, the story, mechanics, whatever. A literal free-for-all. Any genre, literally anything goes.
I also would like to see her play some point and click games with rich story, my girlfriend loves to play that.
yess
@@darksky7507 Yes, yes, yes! As someone who also doesn't have much background in gaming, my and my person who is a gamer have been doing alot of him playing things and me trying to follow along and occasionally help make in-game decisions that he follows playing. I'm increasingly helping him pick the stories, so getting some input about what it's like at a minimal skill level to just kindatry to pick and play stuff from someone so similar to me would be facinating.
Yeah, I wonder what would happen if she picked gta online... **missile lock on noise**
@@ToastyStuff all jokes aside that would honestly be pretty interesting, the game overwhelmes new players with 50,000 calls from people all telling them to buy different shit they can’t afford yet and doesn’t do a particularly brilliant job of telling new players how they can go about making money, which to be honest there aren’t that many great ways of doing it apart from the treasure hunts which can be quite hard for new players who probably don’t know all the locations in the pictures, and some don’t even have pictures, you just have to find random stuff around the map that isn’t marked in any way, it teaches the basic controls and a few core mechanics like driving and after that you’re on your own, maybe the story mode would be better at teaching her how to play and then she could try online after she felt comfortable with the controls and basic idea of the game
"And because I'm a bad person..."

@Caio Morozini that would be too hard its not even real, league is so much easier

Lol is for math nerds. It’s barely a game. My calculator could do better than I could with advanced strategy. Playing lol is like rubbing your brain on a grindstone, rather than using it in the intended way.

It was one of the most heartbreaking things I have heard. I say it all the time, but when I say it, it's in anger or even determination. When I heard it here, it was in utter despair.
I read this comment while she said that

I'm a casual MOBA player, I've played Dota a long time ago and play Mobile Legends. I don't have my own pc so I played on mobile.
I started playing both to join in on friends. I started playing as ranged characters in both games but eventually I got used to playing tank because nobody picks tank when I play solo.
I started playing LoL, I've played only a handful of games because I don't have my own computer to play it on. I enjoyed playing a Garen and got an S+ rating (Don't really know what that means), I didn't even know that he was a tank when I picked him.
The thing is, I wanna try playing as other characters but I know I'm going to be pretty bad on how to use them.
Zytran L which is why there are 2 things you should do - always play atleast 3-5 games (or more, depends on the character) against bots to get a feeling for the character, understand their abilities and so on. The other one is muting every other player out there and to play without allchat (you can take it off in the settings). Because in League, you will have atleast 1 smurf every game, i.e, a player, that has played the game a lot and is leveling up a new account. They, most likely, will be toxic to new players, like yourself. And it sucks, I really hate, what the community has become, but it is what it is.
@@CarlDeer The main reason I can't practice against bots that often is I only play 2 to 3 games per session, and those sessions can have weeks to months in gap because I can't play at home. (Even longer now because of the current situation)
Until I have my own pc, I don't think that's going to change.
Maybe next time, I'll try a different hero. Got any suggestions on champions with roles people don't normally pick when playing solo.

This has to be the best summary of League solo queue I've heard in a long time, even at higher levels.
For a first time player? Yeah, without outside help or watching other people player you won't really understand league tactics or possibly even roles when you first play.
@@MelaLabelle No, for any player. It's super common for teammates to flame each other thinking they are doing nothing, when in reality it's a big map with a lot of moving parts, and most people are usually doing something. The key here is that players are usually not on the same page. Players' actions are based on a difference of opinion, rather than a right vs wrong, and most don't see that.
@@curo. The thing is I've been from bronze to Diamond and everyone who does better in one game will act better than everyone else but when they do badly they always keep quiet or blame something. The reason people do this from bottom to high level of play is that they don't understand the game enough or they don't care enough just to focus on themselves and get better

It really is one of the best feelings ever. My friends and I aren't able to play some games together cause they don't have the same console or they wouldn't be able to run it without their laptop blowing up lol. That's why when we find something we can play together it's a great moment. I remember when Pokemon Unite came out we would play so much. It was so much fun playing together and even when it got competitve at times, and we were losing, it was a great experience cause we'd be laughing while watching each other run away or get knocked out. Playing with friends really takes the stress off games like that and it really turns into a fond memory

Not only is it 100% possible to make a match for the rest of your team an unenjoyable 15 minutes to an HOUR, most will let you know when they're unhappy with you. The most common mentality is to take the game super seriously, not play around with. Many people who play casual matches just doesn't like the ranked system or they're fine-tuning their skills on something they're not as used to.
I wish people would have more opportunities to try out things that are simply fun. The only gamemode that is forgiving enough to let you do this tends to be ARAM. But often times players just make a new account so they've got an excuse even if they make their team lose. Those are my advice, and to mute everyone... or simply don't play this game. But changing your own attitude towards yourself could surely help too. Everyone makes mistakes and as long as you're trying you shouldn't blame yourself so hard that you see yourself as a failure, just because you fail sometimes.
"Did I let everyone down?" A.K.A. every support player invested in their role. Poor lady you live with
As a supp main in almost every game, this is me
As a support player I am frustrated because support is a great role if your team appreciates it but boy I can't even begin to count the amount of matches where we had a team of some fancy class and got rekt because I was the only one that understood that a game with roles should fulfil these roles.
The real question is: why do we keep playing support if all we do is give ourselves immense anxiety?
@@dionrodman8829 for me its that feeling u get when the adc says good job, thanks, or u did good. Its like high for me.
@@dionrodman8829
When there are so many people on a team and noone feels the need to pick a support class, that's a comfortable way to carry a team from the back.
It's also good when you are a subtle ego type of guy. Sure, your DPS is high enough to whipe out the whole enemy team under the right circumstances but you live and die because of my guiding hand. Support has a powerful place because if a game is good, it makes the difference between an ok team and a great team.
It's the same thing that is fun about playing "commander" in all party based game modes.
You are the back bone, the foundation; your buffs and heals are what keeps the frontline on the offensive until the foe is whipped out. And the thing is, once you have played a few rounds where you wanted to play offensively as a damage dealer and reckt everything only to slowly bleed out because your whole damn team had the same plan as you but not the understanding to back it up; you have to make a choice. Do I trust one of those good for nothing fools to play what's essentially the game changer OR simply pick my favorite support who can be offensively as well and allow my team to win. I think picking support to me is a reaction to avoid frustration because people tend to pick a class and then be hellbent only playing that class until the end of times and with noone every picking support, that leaves us with the only choice of either quit playing because the morons forgot to take any kind of items to prolong their sorry existence again or be the better man and just pick support which is also why I stopped playing most multiplayer titles alone. When you basically play the same character all the time, it becomes apparent very quickly that support is the most ungrateful positon in a team.

When I played Overwatch, as an inexperienced FPS-er, I really liked playing Roadhog because his health is so high that I basically didn't need to worry about it and could focus on the rest of the game. That and his hook-shoot combo was very easy to grasp. Within a single session, I was already figuring out strategies and setting records on my friend's account for staying on the objective.
I was also good at Mercy, but I didn't really enjoy her. I didn't really find alternating between two buttons all that fulfilling. I hear people who play her like getting big resurrection combos and that's where the fun is, but idk I'm not really a healer type.

Don't worry after playing decades of video games I still have that feeling too. You're not going to get rid of that if you're that type of person. This is not just for new players.
Not with that attitude!
Although I can't speak from first hand experience, but I have a friend who is newer to video games than me, and I was there when he was plainly "new" at video games(even though that was 5 years ago). I played with him all of the games in this video, plus Siege and Apex, and I remember often hearing he doesn't want to play anymore because he's feeling like shit for "keeping us down", particularly in Rocket League and Apex. And we kept telling him we don't care - as long as he's trying his best. And it took repeating that probably at least twice a week for like three years, and now I don't remember the last time I heard him say something like that. On top of that, in the games we did keep playing regularly together, he is slowly but visibly catching up in skill level. You could argue cause vs effect here ofc, but I'd say he stopped blaming himself and THEN got good, rather than the other way around! :)
I’ve been playing MMOs for at least a decade now. I have never played a ranked game, let alone draft picks, just because it’s felt like such a foreign concept and I didn’t want to upset real people for messing up their gaming experience.
I feel that all the time too, even sometimes in games like dark souls when summoning a phantom lol, im afraid im gonna do something really stupid that will piss them off even though ill never meet them again

@@alexridley4419 MMOs migth actually be a nicer choice since they aren't as competitive. Theres more PvE content, and the like.

The weird thing about tutorials is how people fluent in the "language" of video games seem to hate them, but these videos prove they are a necessity to stop, or at least diminish, gatekeeping. Like, the FF7 demo had what I would consider to be really obtrusive tutorials that were walls of text, but someone who just picked up FF7 cause they thought it looked cool might actually really need and appreciate them. Good on you to point this out as explicitly as you do!
I wish there were different skill floors to tutorials. Like sometimes it's frustrating because I already can figure out how to do shit but then I will miss important info that was later in the tutorial.
@@LylWren Too me it usually feels like the tutorials are always targeted towards the dumbest or maybe youngest player, and you feel like an idiot instead of beeing proud you learned a skill.
The lack of skill is not gatekeeping. People who didn't play the game should read tutorial, that is an obvious fact. People who hate tutorials - hate mandatory ones, and i agree with Razbuten here, that they should NOT be mandatory, but heavily advised to new players.
@@just0sex0fever I agree that tutorials shouldn't be mandatory, but there are often toxic people in (voice) chat who complain about new players, and that I would call gatekeeping.
@@wowanothercookie Toxicity is toxicity, and it's always bad of course. But just wanting to play with players of your level isn't necessarily bad, and it also isn't the fault of those new players. It's the fault of the matchmaking, but the anger just kind of gets retargeted towards them, unfortunately. Not trying to negate your comment, just clarifying a bit
i literally never play video games and when my friend made me play one, it was just a lot of her yelling “press ____ button” and me yelling back “i don’t know where that one is!” so i feel these videos.
I never had a console, so every time I play on a friend's console it goes as following:
-Press R2
*Starts pressing random buttons*
- No that's L2, that's R1, THAT ONE IS X! oh my god just press this one!
*Friend presses R2 for me*
Also, aim.
I do NOT know how to aim with a controller. Even if I'm in a FPS I'd rather punch my way through. Which apparently makes him nervous since it's "dangerous to let a zombie approach you" f that.

It's so wholesome seeing her so happy about a rocket league goal
This is what gaming is about
I felt that. I bought rocket league like last week and in four days I learned to get fairly competent and rocket league makes scoring feel good
People tend to forget that. They play for hours to "get good". Make a game into a job. A game can be hard to master but it should always be easy to learn and that's something I find extremley frustrating. If I have to watch 10 hours of tutorials to understand fortites building AND practice it without playing the game, it ruins the fun because it isn't fun
Something I'm glad you touched on was how other game modes aren't just stepping stones to the "real game". For many players, those modes are the destination.
Every time a developer shares statistics for how much each game mode is played, I'm shocked by how few players even touch PvP. For example, it's only about 10 - 20% of RTS players.

3:00 that would also mean they have to remake the tutorial every time they change the roles or rework a hero, I honestly feel like tutorial is one of the hardest part to make right in a video game
True, but with how much information there is to learn in Overwatch, it's sad that they don't at least have a "how to play" tutorial for each game mode (control, payload, 2CP), as well as a basic tutorial for each hero. It took me over a year from when my friends convinced me to buy Overwatch to actually start playing the game on a regular basis because I felt overwhelmed and lost. And this is the experience of someone who has not only played video games since childhood (admittedly mostly single player games), but who also had friends willing to show me how to play. Imagine the perspective of someone who has to go in completely blind.

Her reaction to when she made that goal in rocket League was fantastic. Makes me think about how I miss these kind of moment when I sucked at everything. That's when you get the highest moment in gaming imo. Once you're good you either do good or suck. When you're bad, you're either doing okay or extraordinary. Dang.
I'd be lying if I didn't cry from laughing at how fucking shit some of my bronze/silver RL games were. Now the games where I get that much enjoyment out of are few in between at C2. It's a cycle of tilt-take a break - be a musty for 2 games - tilt - rinse and repeat
Yeah kinda this way; I don't feel any satisfaction from playing games anymore because it's just things I've seen a thousand times and when I underperform according to my standards, it becomes unbearable rage and it feels like I shamed my family and dishonored them lmao. I got into more serious competition eventually because I simply get no emotion from gaming anymore (except for games with stories, which is mostly what I play nowaday).

Watching this series just solidified the importance of who you enjoy playing with. Speaking from past experience, I used to think I’m hot-garbage at fps games because I didn’t do well in a couple matches with friends, and I held onto that truth for 5 years. Until my new (and current) friends came a long and urge me to play some fps with them, I was reluctant at first but eventually gave in. Turn out I am average at best, and actually quite enjoy clicking heads. The friends I had just didn’t care enough about my experience and put me against high level opponents (I found this out shortly after the session ended, but didn’t care enough to actually pursue).
