It took away my free time.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Starcraft made me realize that life is just this ladder that if you cheese your way too the highest ranks you'll never be a consistent player.
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.

taught me the extent to which an activity like a sport/game could be taken and how noob I suddenly felt. also taught me to seriously shut the fuck up and listen when someone who has done something for a much longer time than me is talking.

after sc you try to see everything and measure everything by how extreme you can take it.

but the best thing it taught me is:

people who say they are good are normally very average.
people who say they are ok/not that good are usually really good.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

You're right. I now listen to others more, because i know that im only ok or not that good at everything.

starcraft taught me that most people are unskilled and unaware, and to be careful to not fall into that category myself. i suppose it's very difficult to understand and come to terms with the fact that even the simplest seeming things may have sick depth that 99% of the world will never begin to grasp. it is very, very easy to simply be above average at anything, but unimaginably harder to become truly good. everyone thinks they're 'good' at something - sometimes they are, more often than not their opinion of themselves is laughably inflated.

i have much less of an ego after starcraft, knowing that there is always someone better even if you give your all, someone better than that guy, someone wayyyyy better than that guy, etc. i handle winning and losing much more gracefully than before, and am more interested in learning the intricacies of and enjoying something rather than result grubbing. i tend to qualify my statements more and have no problem deferring to anyone who might be better until i know what i'm talking about.

also it's really fucked up my ability to pay attention to one thing at a time
