    I never played it because the pitch I usually got was “people get SO MAD while playing this, it’s hilarious,” and I was already tired of le edgy asshole “U MAD LOL” era humor when LoL first started taking off anyway.

      Yeah literally. Everyone I know who got really into it has at some point, either quit the game for a while or permanently because of the effect it had on them, or I have seen/heard them scream at their computer to an embarrassing degree while playing. It never sounded fun, and the one time I played it as a bit (got some thrift store power glove style controller working and everyone wanted me to play because I was the last hold out) I was like why is this appealing?
