As someone who always has a new alt every so often, i concur its fun to play on one! Yes when you're on an alt, you may be more prone to having a target on you, that said, i feel like it really freshens up the game, because noone can meta you as everyone else has mentioned. Plus its always fun learning who's behind an alt, and realizing normally you wouldn't have even allied them or talked with them in a non-alt game!

Alts are fun. Metas have a big role in this game and it's very nice to see a game with half confirmed players and half alts, and how the alts gather power over time.

I've never used an alt because I'm afraid I'll get meta'd early out of a game that I was looking forward to play

OMG WHAT YOU WERE KAZAMI AHHHHHHHHHH

I usually only play on alts nowadays. The game isn't fun when you're playing on your main and people either A) target you immediately, or B) assume you'll alliance with people because they're your friends outside of the game.

I agree with most of the above comments by others, I see no problem with playing on alts.

When I got locked out of KazamiYuuji and outed it, some ppl kinda guessed, but most were shocked.
I was using it when I was fcked off w/ everyone and wanted to socialise anyway - so it came with a genuine personality difference. It was all for fun and games. I still didn't really take the game seriously to win, as I never really do, but Idk. I don't think anyone can be mad about it either because the people who liked that account aren't people who would consider themselves my friends. Well, some of them. So it wasn't really meta at all.
It was hella fun though and I'm still enjoying playing on other random alts, trying to give them personality. This is a game, and games are supposed to be fun. If they aren't fun they're bad games (I'm looking at you League, you're a bad game cause ppl are always playing you for wins and getting mad, not playing for fun) and I found alts made me have more fun, at no real expense to anyone else.
I'm all for em man. Really help you reevaluate your standings with people too.
Idk what to really say but they're great and they open up a lot of fun ways to play the game to keep it interesting. And there's no downsides, unless you play with meta, but you shouldn't. Get into a game and making the same allies every game is a garbage way to play anyway. So you don't need to know who's an alt.

meta kinda ruins a lot of what happens in these games anyways

like if someone somewhat knows what they're doing on an unknown account its already assumed they're an alt, which kinda sucks too.

meta everywhere oh god

I just be myself completely on alts, but withdrawing specific information thats would out my main.

Its a great change up every once in a while. 95% of the time people never figure out it was me until they played with my alts often enough.

Even when I'm known to be an alt (almost every time) I still find being on another account helpful because it helps draw the line between between me as a person and me as a player. Though ideally when the game starts that distinction should be understood, sometimes that line is blurred. Going on an alt helps other players disassociate you (the competitor) from you (the friend).

If an alt is known to be an alt it can still have a purpose. It's a signal to other players not to take anything you do personally.

i think alts are fine as long as you yourself dont use meta.
no point in being an alt and just siding with the same players you did when you were on your main.
no point being an alt and targeting someone because you know they are good physically or because they are hc.

so i recon the better alias is the one that discards meta all together.

i still think Knife was the sab

I agree with everything HardCarry said. Plus I always feel like I have to switch up my grammar/ the way I talk when I play on an alt

People were legit surprised that you were the saboteur in that one vivor game bryce lol

Me on an alt: Wooh wow omg legend FKJDSHFKDSHFK carly rae jepsen invented music!!!!

Everyone at the end of the game when its revealed to be me:

i play on them sometimes but i'm bad at hiding it's me oops

I usually do pretty well when I play on my alt, Voice.

Also, I do think there's an advantage of playing on your main. Although you have more targets and people know how you play, you also will have more people ally you since more people know you. If you're a new player or an alt, you have to be a lot more proactive with allying other people and putting your name out there to be put into alliances.

I'm good with other people using them. I think it's pretty cool when others use secret alts and you find out that they're somebody who you never expected. They're a good way to play without meta; it's nice.

Personally, I don't like using alts because I don't know how to behave on an alt. I think being on an alt and pretending to be a new player is pretty cheap and if I just play normally, people always will know I'm an alt and it kind of ruins the purpose of it. I don't really know how to act as a result. I also like the challenge of going into a game playing as "HardCarry" because there's a target on my back from the beginning and it's nice to see if I am able to maneuver my way through despite that.

most if not all of the cons come from the fact that games weren't always anonymous or first time interactions between everyone to begin with. Had it always been like that there wouldn't even be a need for them. In the end they're just a nice occasional alternative compared to always playing where everyone knows you.

they're good

they're fun

they're fine

i like em

i use em
