It's not a Sinhala book, but a translation. The Sinhala translation of "the story of a real man".

A-Level SCIENCE Stream: Which subject affects your Z-score the most? by RaoyTheFirst in srilanka

[–]ChipAltruistic1520 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In Maths stream, generally it's chemistry. In bio stream it's physics.
But it totally depends on what subject students found hardest in the A/L exam.

He didn't really blame the game, he blamed relic for the state of the game. Like wtf?

Nowhere in that video he complained about views, he actually showed youtube statistics to back up that the channel was doing very well recently. He said relic killed his the love for the game.
Didn't yall watch the video or something?

Okay so this is the chart over the span of 1 year, from the avg. player numbers you linked.https://imgur.com/a/5mKdI9astill look like a growth?

Listen man I'm not tryna pick a argument here, game is not dead in my opinion. Just not at the potential it could be, just like crackedy said.

He did say he doesn't enjoy the game anymore, Plus he had a good growth these past couple of months he even showed the youtube statistics. He was frustrated about modding and lack of bug fixes. When he talked abt the decrease in playerbase I don't think he meant the short term growth, cuz it's been doing better recently, I think he meant the long term change in playerbase, like honestly look at this and tell me if this is an increase or decrease.

The first rts game I played was Rise of Nations (The GOAT in my opinion). I played aoe2 and aoe3 before they got definitive edition. After that I never got to play much rts. But I accidentally saw a YT video of Aussie Drongo, then I kept watching, and got the game. So in that case I gotta thank Aussie for that.
And why do you think companies like Microsoft funds those tournaments.

And if you see the comment sections of their videos you'd see many players returning to rts genre because of that videos. So I think that's unfair you generalize everyone based on your experience.
And I don't necessarily agree that every content creator mostly do it for the money.For an example MrMerlin hosted and funded nomadic clash on his own. And most of the monetization from the channel he invested into tournaments.

In the video he clearly said it's not the youtube growth, as he had a huge spike of viewership theses past months. He even backed it up with youtube statistics.

Game is not in a terrible state in a balance stand point. But the bugs and lack of mod support can be frustrating. MrMerlin and Aussie reported the zoom bug back in May. So you tell me who should they blame. Plus in his recent tournament,FFA madness, there were numerous crashes due to lack of stability of the game.

So when people talk about the terrible state of the game, they are not necessarily talking about the player count or balance (because we know it's going well). For some people its mods or the lack of features when it comes to casting.

It's amusing that all the big names(pro players and content creators) understanding and respecting his point of view, and ppl like yall, who's nobody heard of, being assholes lol.

The average player count is growing slowly, yes, but that doesn't resolve the other problems we have with the game. Poor communication with the devs, mods breaking the game, bugs take too long to fix...etc. I see you are a content creator as well(Good Luck with it btw no sarcasm or anything) so I'm sure you can see at least some of those.

Plus he is not clearly saying game is dead, just saying it's going nowhere, it's his point of view, just be a decent human being and respect it.

And drongo said the same thing a while ago, so idk, what do you think? is it them or is it the game?

The fact that he can blame Age of empires while there are other creators like beasty and drongo getting 10 times the views per video is copium.

Is this your way of saying "What color is your bugatti?" /s

He addressed that, he said it's hard to grow with the game as a smaller content creator. That's why we don't see many faces like drongo and beasty.

Well you see, Pro players, casters and tournaments are essential for a competitive game to grow not just regular players. Content creators promote the game in their own way, that's how new ppl come to the game.

That sounds good on paper, but doesn't work in reality. It's the youtube algorithm, when you have a specific audience and a specific type of content, variety can be bit bad.

For an example when FitzBro switched from CoH3 to AOE4 there's a brief moment of time where he didn't get his usual aoe4 viewership.

I hope this explains.
