如今,由于信息能够以如此快的速度传递,某些短语被大量使用和使用,以至于它们有时会获得与最初使用的完全不同的含义。
您可能已经在互联网上看到或听到过这样一个缩写,尤其是在游戏中,是“GG”。
“GG”是什么意思?它代表“好游戏”,并且自多人竞技游戏(gaming)出现以来就一直存在。它从一开始就以类似于运动员使用它的方式被使用,作为对你的队友的尊重的标志,即使他们来自对面的球队。
当然,在游戏场景中,这句话变成了GG的缩写,随着时间的推移,它的含义也有了不同的内涵。
GG的起源(The Beginnings of GG)
LAN或局域网游戏的时代是多人游戏场景刚刚起步的时候。这段时间,这种玩法非常新颖,接触的人并不多。
与他人一起玩游戏通常意味着您认识的朋友,而不是世界各地的某个人。正因为如此,玩家更有动力表现出对他人的尊重。
然而,迟早(Sooner),在线多人游戏(gaming)注定会变成更多的东西。像雷神之锤(Quake)和星际争霸(Starcraft)这样的游戏也是如此,后者以真正开始使用 GG 一词而闻名。随着此类游戏越来越流行,当游戏中出现失败时,GG 的使用开始成为标准。
这个词的使用很快变得普遍,以至于几乎每个玩网络游戏的人都知道它代表什么。但就像大多数流行的东西一样,有些人开始滥用或扭曲它的含义。
GG是如何开始被进攻性使用的(How GG Began To Be Used Offensively)
归根结底,游戏玩家具有竞争力。如果你不想赢得尽可能多的人性, 为什么还要连续几个小时(hours on end)坐在电脑上试图在特定游戏中表现出色?
当在线多人游戏开始达到这种竞争水平时,游戏聊天中的琐碎程度也随之增加。即使在早期,一些玩家也不喜欢使用 GG 来结束游戏。对他们来说,这更像是一种嘲讽,而不是一种尊重。
有些人在比赛开始时就开始使用GG,表示他们已经知道自己会赢。其他人会在比赛结束时讽刺地用它来告诉他们的对手胜利太容易了。起初是一句良好的体育精神,后来变成了球员们说的让对手振作起来的词。
随着时间的推移,随着GG这个新含义的开始,这个缩写开始成为主流,人们开始讽刺地使用它,不仅在游戏中,而且在现实生活中。它开始在互联网圈子中被用作一个笑话,当事情变得如此可怕以至于你只能对造成它的任何事情说 GG 时。
如今,GG 很少在其原始上下文中使用,更多的是作为一个笑话。但是,通常情况下,很明显可以判断某人是在真诚地使用它还是在取笑。
GG的其他用途(Other Uses Of GG)
从缩写GG中衍生出一些其他的,主要是为了强调这句话的讽刺或居高临下的性质。许多人(Many)会在对手失败后使用这些术语或它们的组合来真正打出一拳。
GG EZ
这意味着“好比赛,轻松”,用于告诉对方球队这场比赛没有挑战。它几乎总是被用作对其他团队的侮辱,但也可能在您自己的团队中用于祝贺自己。但如果它真的被不尊重地使用,人们可能会在最后添加“LOL”,或者“大声笑”来表达重点。
GG无重(GG No Re)
“好比赛,没有复赛”是一个特别令人发指的短语。这通常意味着游戏非常简单,您甚至不想与对手重赛。如上所述,有些人还将它与 EZ 结合使用。
GGWP
这个比较温和,意思是“好游戏,玩得好”。但是,如果游戏特别容易获胜,它也可以在某些情况下讽刺地使用。如果你将它与上面的其他缩写一起使用,讽刺实际上是有形的。
使用或不使用GG(To Use Or Not To Use GG)
因此,说了这么多,您可能想知道是否应该在玩游戏(games)或其他时自己使用GG。实际上,这实际上取决于您使用它的上下文。
如果你是在赛后说这句话,并且想表达尊重,大多数时候其他玩家不会对 GG 的单一用法嗤之以鼻。但是,如果您在比赛开始前或以居高临下的方式说出来,您可能应该为一些反弹做好准备。
然而,大多数时候,人们会将其理解为玩笑,不会真正生气。所以,最终,何时以及如何使用 GG 取决于您。如果你确实想让你的对手有点生气,那么,现在你知道该怎么做了。
What Does GG Mean In Gaming, Chat, And More
These dayѕ, wіth the ability for information to be passed arоund at such a qυick rate, cеrtain phrases get picked up and used so much that they sometimes gain an entіrely different meaning than they were originally used for.
Such an abbreviation you may have seen or heard being used around the internet, and especially in gaming, is “GG.”
What does “GG” mean? It stands for “good game” and really has been around since multiplayer competitive gaming has. It’s been used from its inception in a way similar to how athletes use it, as a sign of respect to your fellow players, even if they’re from the opposite team.
Of course, in the gaming scene, this phrase became abbreviated to GG and over time, its meaning has taken on differing connotations.
The Beginnings of GG
The days of LAN, or local-area-network gaming, was when the multiplayer gaming scene was just getting started. During this time, this type of gameplay was extremely new, and not many people had access to it.
Playing a game with others usually meant just friends you knew personally, not someone all the way across the world. Because of that, players had much more of an incentive to show respect to others.
Sooner or later, though, online multiplayer gaming was destined to turn into something more. And it did so with games like Quake and Starcraft, the latter of which is known for really starting the use of the term GG. As games like these grew more and more popular, the use of GG started to become standard when an in-game defeat occurred.
Usage of the term soon grew to become widespread, so much so that nearly everyone who played online games knew what it stood for. But just like most things that get popular, there are people out there who started to misuse or twist its meaning.
How GG Began To Be Used Offensively
When it comes down to it, gamers are competitive. Why else would you sit on your computer for hours on end trying to get good at a specific game, if you didn’t want to win as much as humanly possible?
When online multiplayer gaming started to get to this level of competitiveness, the amount of pettiness in game chats also grew. Even early on, some players disliked the use of GG to end a game. To them, it felt more like a taunt than a sign of respect.
Some people began to use GG at the beginning of a game, indicating that they already knew they were going to win. Others would use it sarcastically at the end of the game, to tell their opponents the win was too easy. What at first was a phrase of good sportsmanship became something players said to get a rise out of opponents.
Over time, as this new meaning of GG started to take hold, the abbreviation was launched into the mainstream and people started to use it sarcastically not only in-game, but in real life. It began to be used in internet circles as a joke when something goes so horribly wrong that you can only say GG to whatever caused it.
Nowadays, GG is rarely used in its original context, and more often as a joke. Usually, though, it’s pretty obvious to tell if someone is using it sincerely or to poke fun.
Other Uses Of GG
Out of the abbreviation GG grew a few others, mostly to emphasize the sarcastic or condescending nature of the remark. Many will use these terms or a combination of them to really pack a punch after an opponent’s defeat.
GG EZ
This means “good game, easy” and is used to tell the opposing team that the match was no challenge. It’s almost always used as an insult to the other team, but may also be used within your own team to congratulate yourselves. But if it’s really being used disrespectfully, one might add “LOL” at the end, or “laugh out loud” to get the point across.
GG No Re
“Good game, no rematch” is an especially heinous phrase to use. It most often means the game was so easy you don’t even want to have a rematch with your opponent. Some also combine it with EZ, as above.
GGWP
This one is quite a bit milder, meaning “good game, well played.” However, it can also be used sarcastically in certain contexts if a game had an especially easy win. And if you use it with the other abbreviations above, the sarcasm will practically be tangible.
To Use Or Not To Use GG
So with all this being said, you might be wondering whether or not you should use GG yourself when playing games or otherwise. In all actuality, it really depends on the context you’re using it in.
If you’re saying it after a game and you want to show respect, most of the time other players won’t bat an eye at the singular use of GG. But if you say it before a game has started, or in a condescending way, you should probably prepare for some backlash.
Most of the time, though, people will understand its usage as a joke and won’t truly get angry. So, in the end, it’s up to you when and how you want to use GG. And if you do want to make your opponents a little peeved, well, now you know how.
