I just don't like hyper competitive games. I don't have time to get frustrated.
I like single player games where I have the option to change things I don't like via mods or console commands.
Like competitive games, but I don't like overly competitive people. At the end of the day, win or lose, it's still a video game and it should be fun. Competitive games with friends who understand that and don't get tilted can be great fun, even when you're on a losing streak.
I don't mind competitive games, just not the crazy competitive ones. TF2 is a great example - fun, casual, PvP. Tarkov is probably my least favorite - hyper competitive, huge losses if you die, big incentive to cheat.
It's a shame that Tarkov is what it is, because I love shooters and it's probably the best of them, mechanics wise.
Just dropping in, in case you haven't heard about it: Single player Tarkov exists, and is very fun! It obviously won't have the same reactions and interactions as humans, but they're emulated pretty damn well with some additional mods.
Yup, I've played it plenty! I even tried setting up a server with Project Fika but for some reason I couldn't get it going.
