What’s the dumbest reason you rage-quit a game?
Okay, be honest with me here…

We’ve all had that one moment where a game broke us. Not a tough boss, not a 200 IQ puzzle — nope. Just something dumb.

For me, it was in Dark Souls. I wasn’t even fighting a boss — I fell off a tiny staircase because I mis-timed a roll… after carrying 30,000 souls. Uninstalled instantly. Came back two days later like nothing happened. 😂 (obv on my other account)

So tell me:
👉 What’s the most ridiculous reason you rage-quit?
👉 Bonus points if it wasn’t even the game’s fault!
ahh and the historic Getting over it :eaglegag:

Let’s hear those salty but funny tales — and maybe we’ll all feel a little better about our own gamer moments.

Pretty much this^.

If I find a game boringly tedious I may eventually put it down and not pick it back up but yeah I don't think I have ever rage quit a game before.

Metaphor Refantazio, I missed an optional event and got very annoyed.



I am unsure if I just lost patience or have no desire to commit so much time towards a super long JRPG, but I am not replaying the whole game just to see everything it has to offer. At times I question how I even played through Persona 5 Royal multiple times on PS4 and yet I cannot bring myself to finish it once on PC.
About 90% of all games I have played :steammocking:

Usually it is something stupid getting killed unexpectedly.
Mordheim put me in a bad mood with a new character to join my medieval gang and he got clobbered massively and result was he died and so i huffed!

Mordheim is currently my favourite game I am playing alongside Caravaneer2 and world of guns.

F1 game in online game.

Clown rams me multiple times. No penalty.

I dodge ramming attempt by going slightly off-track. I get penalty.

Uninstalled and never looked back.
Metro Exodus. Game took my weapons away for 'story reasons' and gave me a sh*tty crossbow to use instead. Still haven't gone back.

Play cho-han in yakuza game.
Get high 12 games in a row. 3 million yen wasted.

Then I rage at every thug on the street.
Dragon age inquisiton, wont give spoilers but the ''twist'' at the end made me so mad i uninstalled the game and got done with the saga right then and there.

Multiplayer game just one, wasnt rage just dissapointment, it was hunt showdown.

Heard a gunfight in the distance, as a solo player went there to probably get shot and die but instead i saw a duo jumping while shooting and of course missing every shot, after seeing up close how that game became more and more like fortnite i said nah alt f4 and uninstalled that ♥♥♥♥.

Couldn't do a trick in Skate back in 2007
Rocket League is the only game that can make me slightly rage. The problem is my teammates are most of the time way below my rank and skill level. Their playstyle is so confusing I just get a bit angry because their tactics make no sense to me.

No reason at all. Games are a challenge and I don't do 'rage-quitting'
Pathfinder: Kingmaker. I started a couple different characters to get an idea of how the game played. Got out of the first act and established the kingdom. Felt pretty okay about it. Had a party that could actually handle some stuff here and there, so I went exploring.

Because I hadn't been saving the game regularly, I ended up with an autosave featuring my party stuck in a random encounter with a stone giant or something. I just didn't have anything equipped that could do meaningful damage to its armor or resistances. The map for the encounter was too small for me to hide and get into stealth to escape. Even though my party could outrun the thing in circles around the map, I couldn't "run away" in game terms. It just made me so mad. WHAT DO YOU MEAN I CAN'T RUN AWAY THE STUPID THING IS TOO SLOW TO CATCH ME JUST LET ME GO BACK DOWN THE DAMN ROAD.

Anyway, I uninstalled. I was not willing to replay however many hours it had been since my last save. Only paid like $3 for it, so whatever.
