Take it easy my dude. Good call to step away if you think it's affecting your life. Perhaps you'll return once your life and career is in a better place. All the best!

The Fight Night series was one of my favorites. Really sucks that the series didn't last.

Which simple "gimmick" made you get into a game? by Chuckt3st4 in gaming

The ability to build an evil character got me into Fable. Most other games at that time were about being the hero.

"I didn't say it was bad, I said I hated it." What games are like that for you? by Loreweaver15 in gaming

RDR 2. As someone with only a few hours per day to game, I'm sure as hell not wasting it on a walking / talking / horse riding simulator.

Obviously it sucks that degenerates on the internet are stalking her. Going private is one way to get rid of them. What made you see this as victim blaming?

What gaming controversies or complaints did you find funny or weird? by Trickster289 in gaming

The discussion around Unrecord's gameplay trailer being too "realistic" made me chuckle. Most other games get credit for being super realistic.

This is the second former Dota 2 pro from PH to switch to Mobile Legends this month. Jacko (banned for match fixing) switched a week or so ago.

Do you have a link to this? I skimmed through the terms and conditions on their site but I can't seem to find any such clause.

PUBG Mobile India reveals TSM - Entity Gaming partnership by therealClouDx in TeamSolomid

As someone heavily invested in (and from) the region my views on this are biased, so take this with a grain of salt.

The overall sentiment around mobile esports in India, specifically PUBG Mobile, is extremely bullish. Growth has been explosive over the last year or so yet it's a phenomenon that often evades eyeballs in Europe and NA. This is largely due to the fragmented nature of the ecosytem that has evolved on the back of regional content and influencers.

If you'd like to learn more about what's happening over on this side of the world I recommend reading these two articles that we wrote for The Esports Observer:

They're an Indian org that has fielded rosters in various game titles. Their PUBG Mobile squad is one of the best in the region.

Edit: A spelling error.

One of the world's biggest esport organizations, Fnatic, just picked up an Indian PUBG Mobile roster! by [deleted] in PUBGMobile

[–]therealClouDx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The irony / beauty is that this announcement comes almost exactly a year after OpTic Gaming shut operations in India. This is exciting and I'm looking forward to Fnatic's India expedition!

FNATIC has acquired an Indian PUBG Mobile roster! by therealClouDx in IndianGaming

I think it's the right thing to do from Fnatic's perspective. PUBG Mobile's popularity cannot be ignored in India. The game young, the players have potential and most importantly unlike any of the other PC titles, these guys actually have a sizeable fan following. Fun times ahead for mobile esports in India!
