@Spingebill I never played Destiny, but after looking it up, yeah. I can't imagine a persistent world ever becoming an e-sport, even if there are PvP parts to the game. Those are the types of games that you immerse yourself, not to compete, especially on a professional level.

Spingebill (spingebill@poa.st)'s status on Sunday, 14-Apr-2024 03:20:23 JST Spingebill @xianc78 I lean toward esports niggers for one particular reason:
Destiny 2 is not an esport, and it can never be one. Despite that, they rearranged the entirety of PvP to make room for a ranked competitive mode, despite the fact that a sweaty high-stakes mode specifically designed for D2 already existed in the game and fulfilled its niche. They also added the Airborne Effectiveness changes to "make it more competitive," which took a once-fast PvP experience and made it slow and boring, which thankfully they eventually walked back. All to appeal to esports niggers who barely even play the game because there cannot be an esports scene.
oh yeah and also the Saltagreppo incident where after he won his third Day 1 Raid Race, he decided to play backseat dev and call for a nerf of a strong (PvE) weapon and Bungie listened to him.
