If you play a multiplayer game, and lose, who is the author of your defeat? (self.asklemmy)

Is it the other players, because they beat you?

Is it you, because you chose to play the game?

Is it the game manufacturer?

I mean it also depends on the gamemodes you play?

Kind of the reason I preferred playing Free for All over Team Deathmatch on Call of Duty, because if I lost, all I had to blame was myself and not the amoebas on my team giving the other team free points by only doing 360s off the crane for the whole game.

Also might be why I fell out of love with Battlefield after BF1, The game itself was great (wish I could still play it on Linux...) but you could tell there were a lot of new comers to the franchise who just ignored all the objective and teamplay aspects. I still find decent squad play on BF4 & 3 to this day.
