The one thing that always drove me to keep playing when I had more time was the sweet nectar of being part of a high-performing team. When everything clicked together and you knew that you could rely on your teammates during the ebbs and flows across lanes.
I miss those days.
- csours 6y agoYes, I switched teams at work to be on a high-performing team. All the high performing people left the team for one reason or another. I still felt like there were interesting problems to solve, but my outlook became rather depressed for a while. I don't know whether I should have stayed around after the high-performers left.
- otoburb 6y agoThe next best thing I miss from online team games was training newbies and seeing them perform at a high level (over time). The conversion rate was very low (20-25%), but if I'm being honest that made the reward all the sweeter. However, I appreciate and understand that work place dynamics are the real world where external factors can play outsized roles and "performance" is often much harder to measure directly.
