For all you gaymers here, what do you guys think of E-sports as a whole?
I personally think it's dogshit. And it's negative as a whole imo. I can't watch E-sports I think it's the most boring shite you can watch. It's also taking something that was originally created as a hobby for people to have fun and relax and it's turning into this super competitive mess that makes people obsess over video games on an unhealthy level.
I remember the times when you could play a game with people and everyone had a good time. But now it's all gotta be high stakes and super serious. It just brings frustration, anger and general toxicity to something that was previously just about having some fun.
They want to turn video games into a sport but is that really what you want...looking at other sports and the kind of retards who obsess over them for the jews to profit from?
There's this constant screeching that video games need to be pushed into the mainstream and multiplayer games must be like sports and single player games must be like hollywood movies. This has been where the industry is moving and look at the results. Shit games. Toxic communities. Underage gambling schemes. False advertisements and scams. And so on.
As a gaymer, I agree with this sentiment. In addition to this, in many games that can be made competitive, there are countless "right" and "wrong" choices where there previously weren't. I.e., some characters in a fighting game are just naturally better than others due to balancing issues, so you gotta go with the high-tier characters. The way you customized your class/profession's talents or abilities or whatever the fuck? That's wrong, you can't optimize DPS with that build, all people who use that build are stupid and won't be invited to raids.
One that really got under my skin was when I was playing Rocket League; I thought all the cars just flying around hitting a giant soccer ball looked stupid to the point it was funny, so I started playing and made myself a Polish vehicle with a wings decal and a Polski flag. I liked the model I used for it as it looked elegant and could make use of that decal, but lo and behold, I learned from a friend that that model was one of the worst for competitive play and that I'd have a hard time with it. This was enormously frustrating to me, not only because I have a tendency to favor the worst or weakest things in games without realizing it and once again did that, but because it's to the point that even seemingly cosmetic changes like that make a difference, and if I wanted to figure that out for myself, I would've had to dedicate so much fucking time to trying to get good.
Fuck that.
It's all well and good to have a competitive nature to games; in many ways you need it. But to this level where people are dedicating hours upon hours to figuring out the exact science of which fucking car model can hit a big soccer ball easier in the air, how every single LoL champion fares against each other, or whatever else, all in the name of becoming one of the pro players who live together as a team in the big team house, where they continue to practice their game and refine this shit down to the gnat's ass...It reminds me of when I played WoW, which I got heavily invested in to an unhealthy point, and I never even approached their levels of obsession. I learned firsthand that it truly isn't anything
that enriching for you. I'm happier for having shed this behavior.
On the subject of this Katz character, I'm truly loving the media's attempts to portray him as a white man. A white supremacist man, at that. Pretty much every reaction I've seen to such is "Naaah, nah, that's a Jew, buddy. Definite Jew." Even the sleeping "anti-Nazi" Gentiles are putting the puzzle pieces together. Starting with the border pieces, of course, but eventually they'll fill it in to find a Star of David glaring right at them.
