Am I so unlucky or is this game such a waste of time?
Just a quick rant:
I know how to lose, and I can accept a fair defeat (I am a chess player). But playing this game online? It feels like a total waste of time. I completely get the appeal of playing on a real board by the beach with a friend, just having fun. But the online experience is just awful.
I’m not claiming to be the absolute best player out there. But seriously, either Backgammon Galaxy is rigged (which I doubt, since everyone says it’s fair), or the game itself is just fundamentally flawed. It feels like my opponents magically roll the perfect dice every single time. In my last game, they rolled a 3-1, followed by a 6-6, and then a 2-2 back-to-back, while I was stuck with ridiculous rolls like 2-1.
Look, I get that the thrill is supposed to come from playing the hand that fate deals you. But honestly, I’d much rather play poker than deal with this ridiculous game.
