    Google is thinking about getting into gaming, big time

    How does esports affect how you play games at all? Esport is only a segment of gaming.. it's the most competitive gaming. There is "Gaming" as a whole and then there is "Esports" which is a bullet within the Gaming category... You can still "game" for fun... I think the marketing is just fine...

    Google is thinking about getting into gaming, big time

    Which is why you need a big company like Google that doesn't care about the titles, but has the vision to transform everything. Once the infrastructure is setup you'll see input devices connect to your television with NFR/Bluetooth/whatever and that's all you need. Then you just need the games...

    Google is thinking about getting into gaming, big time

    There is a gaming revolution on the horizon. So much money in the industry and it's only going to grow. But I agree that Google shouldn't get into actual titled Games, they have the pockets to transform the industry, if they have the vision. Esports is on the verge of exploding, but everything...

    The most recent balance changes are real nice. I find it less important to have dual shotguns now. I really like the dual pistols.. SMG is a good choice now too. I'm going Tact+SMG or Tact+Pistols as my main close combat weaponry. Of course double Tact/Heavy/Pump are still good too, but so...

    I don't do twitch chat either, but there's a big difference between an engaging streamer and someone that just plays games. Even if not participating in chat, you can feel more engaged when they are talking to chat. For fortnite I like sypherpk he is very good and consistently does...

    There are 100s/1000s of GOOD players that stream, but do not get as much of an audience because they have no shtick or just a very bland personality in general. You do have the choice to watch those streams still, they are there... But don't be surprised that players that interact with their...

    Yes I love gaming, will always play games, and I don't need or want help. Yes I think about games during other activities/work/etc. I'm definitely not a gaming addict. Almost any "passion" a person has would be considered an addiction if this was the case. Addicted to Work, Sports, Hobbies...

    Reading that press release is so infuriating: They insult their playerbase by trying to sell Crate & Key system as anything but RNG highway robbery. Just milking the same system every other recent game uses. Now they add the Event Pass, which I can't blame them, but at least admit they see...

    As a company, yes, they should make more games... They've built a big world, ashame it goes to waste in a MOBA... look at warcraft and how it turned into an MMO and a card game... and assets used in other games (HoTS). As for LoL itself.. its not dying anytime soon. And the infrastructure...

    Seems like a more fun meta that relies on player skill and less about champ select. Personally I think it's a better and healthier change, as long as they keep it this way.

    League Of Legends

    I disagree. FN is insanely fun to watch. Mainly because Build Battles are semi-predictable and make things much CLOSER. Unlike PUBG where everything is long range gun fights/snipes/etc. FN has close-quarter action a vast majority of the time, which makes it a very viewer-friendly game.

    yes the esport scene is still growing for sure, even OW still has a strong competitive league, the viewership seems to always tune in during OWL but then the game is like 20th on twitch when there are no tournaments. I watched the VODs of the TSM games at least. Big issue LoL would face in...

    I played the shit out of League, and I'd probably still play if time allowed, but the long games just don't work. So now I'm doing FortNite, which has been fun as hell and games rarely ever go past 20 mins (for wins)... Getting killed early means games probably average around 7-10 mins. I love...

    -- goto gun is always shotgun off the bat, and as your skill improves you want 2 shotguns mid-game (swap between them in fights, alternate shots, quicker firing). Shotgun is the king of close encounters, which early-mid is all about. Late game you typically want shotgun (Heavy > tactical >...

    Yep, LOL is still popular but isn't #1. I also think it's about time they make a new game. League of Legends Battle Royale ! Seriously though, a LoL 2 would probably bring back a lot of interest. Even if it's still the same top-down gameplay. But they'd need to find a way to add some...
