>why did anyone ever defend building?
ego inflation. the time commitment you need to reach the skill floor for build mode is insane. you need hundreds of hours just getting muscle memory down to press the right buttons, and such huge commitment naturally inflates the players ego. thats why they seethe at zb and simple edit because it devalues the time they wasted in. i know because i play both modes and killing in build mode is way more satisfying but way more frustrating
