    Time-wasting respawns/progress loss seems like a very blunt tool with which to motivate the player to keep playing.

    Tried playing a game of tennis with my friends. 0, 15, 30, 40, Point. Then if you’re two scores ahead the game resets. Wtf! Why did the game reset? I was 30-40 and now I’m back to 0? I should be allowed to keep my 30 into the next game.

    Now I’m being induced into playing more tennis! I hate this.

    And tennis has so few maps! Almost everywhere I go is concrete. Very luck to find a clay court anywhere. You need to buy the DLC to find grass, and only if you’re really lucky.

    Its repetitive. Its exhausting. The rules barely make sense. And the match-making is completely fucked. I’m either playing people I trounce or getting my ass handed to me almost every time I go to a court.

    I think I’m going to try and pick up chess instead. Does anyone know how I can upgrade my pawns to queens, though?
