Gamers are human. We’re not meant to be perfect or in full control of our emotions so getting overtly angry, sad or happy with a game is a given. However, there may come a time (or two) where we just can’t help but lie, even if it’s to ourselves. Here are 15 lies that gamers tell themselves.

“This Mechanic is Bullsh*t!”

We’ve all failed that one sneaking portion in Hitman or screwed up a riposte in Dark Souls. It’s natural to get frustrated over these things but once you roll out “This game’s mechanics are bullsh*t!”, you’re just making excuses. Maybe the mechanics don’t work for you. Maybe you don’t know how to use them in a particular situation or maybe you keep repeating a certain a mistake. And hey, maybe you’re just bad and need to improve. It happens to all of us.
