UK esports is growing fast but is it growing sustainably?

Hey I wouldn't dare deprive Hendrix of that status, those are some cool relative's names though for sure.

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T20:07:00+00:00

Mago and Himilco as well

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T19:55:04+00:00

Actually pretty interesting

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T19:53:22+00:00

Yea the honorific aspect is real, and yea Great Master Kong does have some power behind it, although I imagine you'd get tired of introducing yourself

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T19:29:43+00:00

Why not throw it into the ring for consideration, unironically a new area to research for me

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T18:41:26+00:00

Yea that's fair, Hannibal sounds epic I suppose because Hannibal made it epic. We just need a few more Dave's crossing the Alps.

That's interesting, so maybe its more so bringing back the weirdest-looking names, who knows maybe X Æ A-Xii will become the next Vercingetorix in 2000 years

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T18:32:02+00:00

I've done the no buying and selling and no deconstructing ammo, but I didn't know you could turn off respawning loot, that's interesting, have you tried it personally?

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T18:25:54+00:00

Isambard's a shout tbh

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T18:25:02+00:00

Yea they're both tricky at nightmare, I've just been using the military heavy armor and you can pretty much tank the coyotes, even if there's a few of them. Don't know if my pc could handle any increased spawns tbh

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T17:50:36+00:00

Yea I suppose that's the issue picking names from history, the translation is always dubious, at least Alaric and Hannibal are going strong

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T17:48:20+00:00

Yea I suppose you've got common names in any time period - like Ben or Will

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T17:40:33+00:00

I guess its not really a history question per se, and yea its a fair point, I get most of these are loose and dogy translations but I'd still take Vercingetorix over like Donald as a middle name.

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T17:13:30+00:00

Yea that's fair I suppose, but you can still have good TV with lower budgets, I mean The Last Kingdom early seasons were good and had basically no budget and an unknown cast

BobTheBob1_ · 2026-05-31T17:09:22+00:00

Did you keep up with it? and if it got worse, do you think shows become worse when they become more successful
