Dean’s might be fun but gamers are
always bound to run into some problems
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
problems every gamer has faced before we
begin we publish new videos every day so
be sure to subscribe for more great
content for this list we’ll be looking
at the problems that we as gamers have
faced both in and out of games problems
that span a more broad and general group
we will be glossing over topics like
high difficulty though because that’s
kind of subjective number 10
toxic communities gaming has evolved
over the years we’ve managed to move
beyond the realms of our living rooms
and into the online world when the
internet became more mainstream games
took advantage of the changing landscape
and brought online multiplayer to
competitive games unfortunately not
having to see everyone face to face
brought an even greater rise to toxic
communities you’re an idiot I hate you
dick answer kill yourself from players
who blame everyone else for their
problems people who spam irritating
noises into their microphones that one
annoying camper griefers or just
straight-up dickheads these communities
sometimes make it difficult to enjoy the
games we love put this century down stop
going south number 9 parents Peyton says
recently I was looking through my
daughter’s phone and I found many
pictures of a cartoon skeleton with one
glowing blue eye and wearing a hoodie
we’ve all been there when we were
younger parents who don’t approve of our
gaming habits whether it was trying to
get to that last checkpoint playing late
into the night for not approving of the
game subject matter it felt like they
were one of the biggest walls between us
and our games
[Music]
if your parents were fine with you
playing video games there was of course
the issue of having them buying the
games for you and dictating what you
could and couldn’t play at least until
you could save up your allowance for
yourself but again that often meant
missing out on a lot of amazing titles
when you were young come on mom and dad
it’s the parents job I mean there’s no
doubt about it this game is rough and
it’s tough and it’s not meant for 13
year old kids no brait budget on the
other hand while getting games as a kid
was tough purchasing games as an adult
comes with its own set of real-life
obstacles you know the ones that your
parents kind of warned you about with
most games costing as much as a week’s
worth of groceries for some and consoles
in the hundreds of dollars it can be
quite difficult to manage our money
especially when we see our friends all
have that shiny new console being a PC
gamer can be even more trying with
upgrades reaching into the thousands in
terms of a full-on upgrade all in a
quest to get that sweet sweet 60
frames-per-second
number seven your favorite franchise
ruined every gamer has had a franchise
that gave new meaning to their favorite
hobby with some game series live
spanning years it can be quite difficult
to maintain that high standard that
bands have come to expect and there are
bound to be flops unfortunately those
flops can sometimes end up ruining our
perception of the entire franchise in
general what we may consider ruined can
obviously be subjective but it can be
very disheartening when a follow up to
one of your favorite games of all time
turns out to be nothing short of a
disaster
number 6 stereotyping as gaming has
evolved and changed so has the culture
in communities so when we see TV shows
movies or even other communities label
or depict us as the classic nerd
stereotype it could be kind of
frustrating
hello I am a nerd from the nerd brigade
here to nerd out on all your audio and
visual needs
Wow this isn’t the only label that
thrown at us it’s certainly one of the
most insulting and one of the most
common as gaming communities as a whole
are very diverse in nature it seems like
the term nerd is meant to label a
community that doesn’t adhere to popular
standards but with gaming fast becoming
one of the biggest forms of media it is
questionable as to why people still feel
the need for that label on the one hand
the Xbox one is a better camera but the
ps4 has a removable hard drive thoughts
I can’t feel my legs
number fine dying when you didn’t save
your progress
while the autosave and checkpoint
systems have been kind of a blessing
there was a time and depending on the
game there still is a time where saving
was completely manual or taken out of
your hands if you died then you have to
go back to where you last seed
sometimes though you get so immersed in
your game that you lose track of time
and forget to save your progress when
you die you’re reminded of your own
mistake and you could be crushed by
losing how much time you’ve played
sometimes it’s even several hours worth
just remember to always check up on your
saves especially before a boss fight
come on
[Music]
number four save file corrupted as if
losing some of your in-game time from
forgetting to save was bad enough try
losing all of your progress in one fell
swoop while not as common a safe file
corruption means in almost all cases
that you cannot return to the game from
that file
meaning all that time you spent has gone
forever it’s almost as bad as deleting a
save accidentally but corruption is
typically out of your control with
reasons ranging from unexpected power
outages to bugs or just the game being
stupid the result is always the same and
your time it’s just gone number three
time management hey speaking of time
even if we had enough money to spend on
all the games we wanted time will always
be an issue we still need to work our
jobs go to our classes deal with the
family or just get enough sleep and all
that can be a bit of a hassle if you’re
a major gamer man magic what huh
mattress setting aside enough time to
play your game can feel more like
scheduling an appointment rather than
just you know kicking back and having
fun while this problem tends to overlap
into several other problems on our list
it still stands out as it is troublesome
to all gamers maybe sometime we’ll be
able to finish the witcher 3
number two lag
another problem that is typically out of
your control
lying is extremely frustrating for
online gamers caused by the internet
slowing down either locally or
server-side it can create hiccups and
gameplay from your typical players
teleporting and running in place do your
shots not connecting with the enemy it
can make any online match basically
unplayable to make things worse if
you’re the only one lagging you appear
to everyone else as just kind of like a
bad player who for some reason is
standing still at the worst possible
time and is somehow a worse shot than a
stormtrooper number one broken console
scratched games a lot of smoke I don’t
know if you can see that that’s lame I
better put it out of sight exactly a lot
nothing breaks a gamers aren’t more than
their games being physically broken or
their game discs scratched replacing a
game can be expensive on its own but
replacing the system is what really
makes things hard spending hundreds or
thousands of dollars for a device to
play games on is costly and repairing it
or replacing it can add up fast with
many gamers using games as a means for
relaxation and escaping the stresses of
the real world being unable to play and
being out quite a bit of money is what
hits us where it hurts the most
