Well that sucks

When solo queuing competitive matches you always run the risk of getting some shitty teammates. Sometimes you get the person without a mic who can’t communicate or sometimes it’s the person who just doesn’t listen and does their own thing. Sometimes it can be a toxic player who thinks everyone else on the team sucks or sometimes you can just end with a troll who griefs your team.

Props to @sty1e for sticking with it until the end though. Unfortunately I’ve been in those shoes too:

Minimalism in XCOM 2

Among my favourite things in gaming is that some titles have truly great artistic style. Some games even have such distinct styles that you can simply look at a screenshot and instantly know which game series it’s from. Games like Borderlands, Don’t Starve, or Minecraft are a few that come to mind as instantly recognizable. I’ve recently been playing through XCOM 2, and while I find the gameplay graphics to not be overly unique, I do think the minimalist loading screens are a great touch and would make great desktop wallpapers. So here they are if you’d like to use them:

And my personal favourite:
