My brother said our game nights are too competitive and it got me thinking

Honestly, we were setting up for our usual Saturday game of Terraforming Mars last week and he just said, 'Can we play something without a score this time?' Ngl, I always thought the whole point was to win. He said he missed just hanging out and talking, not just calculating moves. It hit different because he's usually the most competitive one. Has anyone else had a group shift from hardcore strategy to more casual nights?

He said that? The most competitive one?

Board games turn people into monsters. It's the mix of luck and skill that makes losing feel personal. That's why families get so intense about them.

My brother called me the most competitive person he knows last week. Honestly, I just really hate losing at board games.
