We will begin by being serious. If you have anger and frustration problems playing video games, it is advisable to go to a professional who will teach you to channel negative feelings. Your close environment will appreciate it and it will probably be cheaper than broken objects. That said, this issue comes to the fore once again by the viral anger that a FIFA 22 streamer has shown live during a game broadcast. The reason? Losing a game and busting your Xbox controller in a fit of fury. A minute of silence for that lost command.
The streamer in question is the popular Castro1021, which has one million followers on Twitter and more than three million on Twitch. Its content focuses on FIFA and, more specifically, on the pay-to-win model of FIFA Ultimate Team. It is a fairly competitive game model, in which the teams with the best players will always have a large advantage over opponents who do not buy packs or FIFA Points.
However, despite this, there may be rivals of great qualities who, sometimes also fortunately, can knock down teams full of stars. Castro was not able to deal with it and accused the game of being broken as he turned his Xbox controller into a jumble of plastic, cables, and silicon. If we add the price of the broken controls to the base game and the packs, there is no doubt that FIFA 22 is quite expensive.
Sometimes the pressure of competitive play can make us angry. To know channeling that anger is important so that there is no avoidable damage. Breathing exercises, mental reflection, or even having a punching bag nearby can be key tools to be able to take advantage of the price of a new controller to buy other video games and expand our library of titles. In fact, there are a multitude of difficult games that, with a lot of resilience, are useful to work on our threshold of frustration.
