Monday Mail #8 - Nerd culture, playing games, and what makes a competitive game
371New T-shirt campaign: https://teespring.com/twitch/desteeny
Monday Mail is back!
Every week I'll be answering the top three questions as asked on my subreddit (see below) for the Monday video.
0:37 "Ormusn2o" asks: How do you feel about transformating of gaming/nerd culture into the mainstream? It used to be wild west, uncontroled by anyone except the people. Now companies are being bought by corporations, social media is a funnel for advertisement, nerd culture became something you want to be, not something you are. You do it because its cool, not because thast what you want to do.
I know you have been intrested in computers/games from very young age, how do you feel about those changes.
7:02 "Niaos" asks: Have you ever considered doing more playthroughs of games you really enjoyed during your childhood? I really liked your FF7 playthrough. I had a pretty good time going full nostalgia mode while watching you progress through game. It would be awesome to see you play classics/remakes like FFT and MGS.
8:11 "Trebane" asks: Do you believe there is a fundamental criteria for making a competitive game?
