RPGs are more fun when you play them badly
Original: RPGs are simply better when you're an idiot I just can't relate to these capable heroes. https://www. pcgamer.com/games/
A PC Gamer feature argues that role-playing games are more enjoyable when the player character is incompetent, with the writer saying they cannot relate to consistently capable heroes. The piece has struck a chord with gamers who enjoy bumbling through quests, making poor dialogue choices and failing upward, and it is prompting discussion about how flaw and failure create funnier, more memorable stories in RPGs.
Why now: Gamers are debating the piece's contrarian take that incompetent characters make role-playing games more enjoyable.
