Play D&D because losing is just as much fun as losing?

Hah just as much fun as winning. Losing at D&D can involve all sorts of weird and creative things happening depending on your Dungeon Master. Often times you might not just die in a conflict.
Recently my character found a cursed necklace that guards against all but the strongest attacks and my bard is very excited and wearing it, feeling invincible. Little does he know, there’s a very powerful evil being who can hear all his thoughts, knows where he is at all times, and can compel him to do his bidding.
I’m pretty excited to see how the story develops, even if it eventually ends in my character’s horrible demise.

They played League for so long the word "Win" and its relatives "Winning" and "Victory" left their vocabulary. I'm surprised "fun" is still there!

D&D (Dungeons and Dragons) is usually fun when something unexpected happens, which is most of the time, win or lose.
Playing LoL (League of Legends) and other MOBAs (Multiple online battle arenas) and winning only results in fun sometimes and almost never results in fun when losing.
