@k1ng_h4nkY@AN1MOCS2 It’s completely fair to see and complain about everything getting monetized, but unfortunately we do just live in an esports world without insane VC funding + Saudi money drying up. If you want the events to happen with a crowd they need to make their money somehow unfortunately
@Jungle_CS Definitely a bit of rose-tinted glasses, but I think a big part is that it was more like esports, it was more "genuine" content and less actively clickbaiting/clipbaiting, etc. People played/streamed because they loved it (and made them a tiny bit of $(at least compared to now))
Watching them dominate and beat Astralis at ESL NY 2019 was one of the best LAN experiences I have had, hopefully everyone at the org lands on their feet soon enough 🫡
