People have so much of their identity invested into this game that they're essentially incapable of admitting it's possible to just be bad at it.

Instead, we parade out justifications for how inefficient, low quality game-play is just an alternative playstyle and that it somehow doesn't impact their value as a player in a multiplayer game.

The wonderful thing about being bad or new is that it's totally temporary! Due to this games incredibly low skill floor, you can make massive improvements to your gameplay with very minimal effort. This game even offers an incredible abundance of people that are willing to help you improve.

Improvements are easy to make. Resources and people are available to help you make them. If, in the face of that, you still refuse to try to do better in the context of a cooperative activity..... What exactly does that say about someone?
