I mean this genuinely despite how it may sound, but: are minor profile cosmetics particularly valued by players? I mean like titles, banners, icons, maybe even playmats or things like that.
Humans in general care a great deal about status - both having status and showing status. In real life, this can be through clothing, cars, homes, family, connections, the ability to get into "exclusive" places, and so on. In multiplayer games and online communities, it is just as important for players to be able to express their status. In one of the earliest sprite-based MMOGs I played, there were only a handful of different hair styles and no outfits, so players could only really express their individuality by wearing hats. As a result, the hat economy was enormous, with rich players often willing to spend ridiculous amounts of currency and time hunting for rare hats that provided no gameplay benefits other than visual distinction and status. If a player had a rare and hard-to-obtain hat, other players knew it.
Things like titles, banners, play mats, icons, hats, outfits, anything that allows players to show off and broadcast status can become status symbols as long as the community mutually agrees to use them as status symbols. If symbols are acquired by spending money, they usually carry less status because money is fungible, everyone has some amount of money and there's usually some social stigma associated with spending to get ahead in a game (here in the west, anyway). However, if the symbol requires a more difficult feat to achieve - high rank in pvp, getting a rare drop, killing a rare spawn, participating in a specific event, etc. - the status that the symbol conveys usually becomes greater. This holds true even for things that once cost money long ago, but now are just about having something that isn't obtainable anymore - the original World of Warcraft collector's edition exclusive pets are status symbols now due to their age and rarity, despite being primarily obtained via spending money.

Somehow I am simultaneously the best and the worst and slightly above average and not good enough all at once.
According to my brain anyway

This was like the third weird glitch thing that's happened while playing with my sister. All of our bedrolls were already rolled up after a long rest, and Astarion ( who I'm playing in the playthrough ) was laying like that on the ground. Everyone else was already up. It was so weird. My sister didn't even notice. 🤣
Bonus pics: My view and then my sister's. Astarion was invisible for me, but on her screen, he most definitely was not. 🤨🧐🤔

Top Tips for Competing in Multiplayer Games
Multiplayer games may be a standard feature today, but they are a relatively new creation. Just a couple of decades ago, being able to compete with or against someone else was a rarity and doing so online was nearly impossible. Instead, you’d buy a game, play the single-player mode, and that would be it. Once you’d completed it, you could re-run the levels, but there was nothing more you could…

Gaming
Gaming has been a significant part of my life since I first picked up a controller back in 1995 playing in those arcades. It’s not just a hobby; it’s a passion that has grown and evolved over the years. From card games like Yu-Gi-Oh to board games like Monopoly and Chess, and all the way to video gaming on platforms like Xbox and Nintendo, my journey through the world of gaming has been diverse and exhilarating.
I have fond memories of sitting around the table with friends, playing card games. Yu-Gi-Oh was a particular favourite of mine, not just for the strategy involved but also for the vibrant stories and characters. There’s something incredibly satisfying about building a deck and outsmarting your opponent, whether it's through cunning tactics or sheer luck. Those moments taught me valuable lessons in strategy, critical thinking, and friendly competition.
Then there are board games—classics like Monopoly and Chess. Monopoly brings out a mix of excitement and rivalry as you try to amass wealth and properties, while Chess is a battle of wits and foresight. Each game offers a unique experience that brings people together, encouraging laughter, tension, and sometimes heated discussions. The social aspect of gaming is something I treasure, as it builds connections and memories with family and friends.
When it comes to video games, my passion really exploded. Xbox and Nintendo have been my gateways to fantastic worlds and immersive storytelling. Whether I’m exploring vast open worlds, solving intricate puzzles, or engaging in competitive multiplayer matches, the excitement of gaming never fades. Titles that have come and gone over the years have left their mark on me, influencing my interests and sparking my imagination.
One of the reasons I believe gaming has such a lasting impact is its ability to transport us to different realms. It encourages creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork, while also providing an escape from reality. Each game presents new challenges and experiences that keep me coming back for more. I often think about how much I’ve learned through gaming—from strategic planning in complex scenarios to collaborating with friends online.
The phrase “GAMER4LIFE” resonates deeply with me. I know my journey in gaming is far from over. Whether I’m reliving nostalgic moments from the past or diving into new adventures, I embrace every opportunity to play. Gaming isn’t just a pastime; it’s a lifelong passion that continues to shape my experiences and friendships.
As I reflect on my journey, I’m excited about what the future holds. There are always new games to discover, stories to experience, and challenges to conquer. Here’s to many more years of gaming, connections, and adventures!
