    Now I know who they are and they are awesome.

    I think it's kind of a weird thing to give an award for. It would be like giving athlete of the year to someone because they won worlds strongest man.... and the weight lifters who broke records and gymnasts who won gold medals would just be like... "wut?"

    Games aren't all equal.

    Except in this case he's kind of also on top in those categories too iirc.

    I don't... think he plays DOTA or Overwatch or Tekken or any number of other things? They're all very different games.

    Just saying, he plays a few of one type of game. Lots of other games, the umbrella of "all esports" is a really weird award. Sort of like if we did it with soccer, american football, rugby, baseball and basketball and just picked one guy because "he's good".

    Should probably break up the category.

    To be fair most of the kids watching this had to ask their parents who those guys were.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    Dauntless "For those who don't want to buy Monster Hunter World a superior version of this game."
    To be fair, nobody expected World and especially on PC.

    They thought they had a market cornered that Capcom didn't but they just savagely fucking uppercutted them without mercy.

    Yeah as soon as Capcom announced MHW PC I felt so bad for Dauntless, cause like it is good. . . but not Monster Hunter.
    Yeah, I think the pitch for Dauntless was Monster Hunter for the west and PC.

    And then World along comes along with that same intent (popularize in the west and on PC) and damn, its been awhile since I felt so bad for a dev..

    They must have started sweating buckets after that E3. Their chances of becoming a success probably weren't huge before that but I definitely think it hurt them.

    Tbh I'm prolly gonna go back to Dauntless because MHW feels like it has just way too much OCD gathering for my tastes. If Dauntles stays as a faster paced MHW with less crafting then I think it'll maintain an audience of people who just want to smash shit.

    I'm embarrassed for them. Atlas wont do well.

    It’s the theme song for one is the player characters in the new Devil May Cry game. It’s very much buttrock with weird-but-cool lyrics.

    I dunno. Ark is CRAZY POPULAR and it has done very well for them.

    This sounds like Ark x1000.

    I'm kinda excited.

    Ark was first to market, there have been a ton of follow up games with more features and interesting environments that don't seem to be doing well at all.

    I hope it does okay, I just think that trend is on the way out.

    After all the bad things I heard about the direction Ark went I can't fathom why anyone would give them money for a new game.

    They spend 10 minutes on music videos and pre-rendered trailers and announcements.

    Then like 20 seconds on actual game categories with a straw poll popup and a guy speed-talking through it.

    Edit: aaaand mute.

    It's a sad day when a new Bioware RPG just makes me nervous instead of excited.

    Which games are those? Because I super want to buy them. But I haven't seen much beating Ark on that front.

    What is this I don't even.
