I donât understand drinking games. If youâre goal is to just get as drunk as possible as fast possible, arenât there easier ways to do that? Alternatively, if youâre just trying to have a good time with friends and be (relatively) responsible about it, couldnât you play other, better games than, I donât knowâŠwhiskey slap?
I still like this video, though, because I think the rule it proposes hones in on the perfect part of Mario Kart 8 to focus on if youâre indulging in the arbitrary silliness of a drinking game. Just having people chug a beer when they lose or something would be sort of missing the point. Drifting (or power-sliding) is something that the majority of Mario Kart players know how to do. But itâs still hard to do well, which means that it would actually inject some legitimate competition into the thing.
But, again, this gets back to why drinking games make zero sense: do you really want to be the guy whoâs so good at Mario Kart that heâs left sober after all his friends are rolling around on the ground?
