I used to play Starcraft some 10-odd years ago and I kind of like LOL, League of Legends, because they're kinda similar in some ways. More technical but similar playing styles and they also have many more characters to take on, roles, powers and what-nots.
Instead of being limited to Protoss (my favorite - teehee), Zerg (ugly creatures, will never play them) and Terran (boring ostracized human soldiers), they have a lot of more options. I am jealous.
I mean, look at this.
I WOULD indulge in either games if I had the time to, actually, but the fact is that...I don't. And I don't think my laptop is capable of handling the game, anyway.
But my kids play LOL and I do get updates from them, from time to time, albeit I overhear them talking about it in the car (to each other, not with me) or playing it in their rooms so, I know a little about it, so, when I heard that the Selangor Cyber Games 2017 is going to be held at Paradigm Mall, a short distance from home, I had to pen it down for a trip there.
It's far more professional than one would have thought about game-playing, really. It's serious business considering the fact that the top teams are actually sponsored and paid to play the games in regional and International games. In...tri...guing....
If Instagraming, Youtubing and Tweeting can be a profession, I don't see why gaming can't. This could be the future, guys. =)
Imagine playing games for a living. That would be like a dream come true for all those kids with a computer and smartphone out there.
I mean, like, why not, right? What better way to promote computers, mouse, keyboards, headsets, laptops, internet service, monitors, etc, than to pay a bunch of people to play the games and promote the stuff?
Intriguing world we live in,
