Thanks for making another meaningful thread Arena. I have some things to say on the matter...
When I first started playing, I played MCSG like one is supposed to play survival. I would play to live long and relax. (Instead of just murdering people and stealing every possible tier two before anyone else can get to it, like most people do now) Back in the old days when there were just SG 1, SG 2, and SG 3, this is what I would always do, and I was always scared to get into a fight. I believe I played about 150-200 games without killing a single person, I had gotten in a few fights, but lost all of them.
Then one day while on Breeze I started fighting someone on top of some trees, and they ran down into the trees below. About ten seconds later it said "You have gained 5 points for killing ____." I was mystified... Later I realized they had probably died from fall damage. One day I met a teammate while playing on Breeze. He skipped corn, got one chest with a stone axe, then immediately began murdering people coming out of corn. That began a new era of MCSG for me, where I played to win. I played to kill people and I played aggressively. I worried about my statistics. I began watching better MCSGers on youtube, which made me come to a realization that I had always been at a severe disadvantage to other players because of my poor internet and computer. Nonetheless, my bounty went from 0.... to 50... to 150... capping off at around 300 before I quit for several months. I had 5 wins out of maybe 400 games when I quit. Of course I was better, but was it really worth it? I was having less fun.
As difficult as it is to understand, noobs who hardly know what they are doing are having fun. They get adrenaline pumping when the game is about to start, where as I sit there bored, waiting impatiently for the game to start. Back when I had played less than 100 games were the days when I had the most fun. And it wasn't necessarily because MCSG was better back then, but because I was carefree and made it better for myself. Nowadays I finally have more kills than deaths, which makes me a little sad, but that's how it is and there's no going back.
As for why people play MCSG for their favorite youtubers, I can't comprehend yet. I heard about MCSG from a friend.
I like what you said here Leo. I agree with this wholeheartedly. Some people just don't gcare at all about statistics, or even know what their statistics are. Some people are so easily entertained that they can play hundreds of games of MCSG, get close to no kills, and still have fun. This is me. (Used to be me)
