This game is fun...when you're not trying.
Hard to fully explain, but I've been finding more enjoyment out of this game when I don't 'try' to win.
Not to say I am succeeding, far from it, but I've just been feeling less frustration all in all after removing all my gadgets, using default vehicles, and playing like an NPC.
Maybe I'm very salty after reaching Platinum then nosediving into Silver after an unlucky string of loosing streaks, but I've personally found online play more freeing after shutting off my brain and just shrugging at the luck dependant elements rather then getting frustrated...even if that means I'll peter down into Bronze eventually.
...maybe the next Legends Competition should just remove gadgets entirely next round. Haha.
Anyway...just wanted to get this out there and off my chest.
