I dont think you have had a good backseat gaming experience if thats how most of your sessions have gone. And if they seemed to lose the drive I wouldnt push them, sometimes they preferred to backseat game to me instead.

I think Im good at helping people learn to play games at a slow pace, as a patient teacher should be. Every game I have backseat gamed with someone included a interest in already playing that game. Never trying to drop something too difficult into the hands of an amateur.

And that's why I said it depends, because some people can do it and some can't. Nothing wrong with not being able to, not everyone is a teacher sort of person.

Yeah they probably haven't gone well, I think they mean well. I get that it can be easy to get frustrated. But it does really sour the whole thing. When you're trying your best and getting griped at just makes ya feel stupid, well makes me feel stupid. And like the person is mad at me. And like I don't want to do the thing anymore. Just usually ended with someone really pissed off and me feeling like crap.

I've more seen people pushing people to game that they don't like than experienced that one fortunately. I've had games suggested that really weren't in my wheelhouse, but nothing pushed too hard. I have chosen to try new games that I wasn't sure about, which was fine. But then when people get annoyed at me not being good it's like... I warned you, I really did.
