When will the MOBA and Esports bubble pop? Is there any

not in this decade

>>378356759
thanks mr.skeltal

>>378356759
Pray the esports bubble doesn't pop ever. The moment it goes games will be filled with microtransaction p2w garbages just like mobile

>>378356759

They're also the reason there's still a handful of gaming internet cafes afloat.

So you're saying that the bubble already pop? Because that's already here.

>>378356759
It will pop when the big guys go into a massive deficit due to unforeseen consequences. You see when anamolous materials are statistically non-zero, they will eventually appear in the next episode, just like 3 follows 2 never ever

when people stop buying the new league of niggers skin for 5 dollars.

Twitch is the biggest game on the PC, as long this is the case esport will be a thing.

You realize esports have been a things since the late 90's right?

fuck off retard

Bubbles are only proven to be bubbles afterwards. Literally anything that expands and bursts can be called bubbles or balloons or whatever. Economics is a dumb man's passtime

>>378359791
i had a friend like that. he grew several inches in a short amount of time and became a gangly spook until senior year when he started putting on muscle mass

>>378360305
You're the one who doesn't understand what a bubble is. Games like Quake 3, unreal Tournament, CS, Painkiller and Brood War were all massively popular and had tournaments where participants could earmn large amounts of money. Esports won't "pop" as long as competitive games exist.

>>378356759

As much as I hate to admit it, I do wish to return to the Star Craft, Halo 2 MLG, and fightin games. Overwatch is garbage and needs to be replaced with a non-shit version of Quake

>League of Niggers

Come on now. You can be more original than that.

The only thing that can replace them is something even worse.

Hello Plebbit

Thanks mr skeltal

>>378361826

You're just proving them right about you.

>>378356759
I don't know, but the sooner it does, the better.

That's like asking when will the sports bubble pop. People like watching other people do shit, there's really no difference between watching football and LoL.

>>378362089
>>378362041
Well not entirely since the issue raised was with a terribly trite, silly name used which kind of indicates he wqs right to assume you're 14. Your swift response to claim reddit or call him a nigger again only supports this. But keep being a boring unoriginal cunt it's sure to make the board discussion better.

You're not helping your case at all you know
>>>r/4chan

as long as sports are alive so will esports.
esports are essentially a sport that you can effortlessly play and if you suck you can just pay $500 to get "convenience" items to improve your gameplay.

esports is a modern day cult. if you attempt to get people to admit they play esports for epeen they start yelling at you crying about "hurr its like sports fuck off why do you watch sports"

the "HURR WHY YOU WATCH SPORTS" insult is throw around no matter who you are, I'm a computer science student who does not care about monkeys throwing around a ball yet if I don't accept esports as my lord and savior the esports fans will see me as a chad because in their minds there are only "LE Gamer geeks" and "le chad geek hater" with no inbetween.

The bubble will never die, riot should be worth a lot more than they are currently, there is no way i in hell these fanatics will ever stop playing the game after sinking in so much time.

I have 50 games played on LoL when i played back in 2010, my friends who never quit the game have 10,000+ each

>>378356759
Probably whenever the American """""""football""""""" bubble pops.

Oh wait

Are you the guy that just keeps saying nigger with no real context?
I could understand if LoL was associated heavily with blacks, had a large black playerbase or Riot was owned by a black guy, but C'mon man.

some are predicting this, but looking at the math, it is quite possible to reach 100k in that time period looking back at our growth since 2000.

Name 5 esports that do this

5 more years

>>378363663
this is why i hate bullies this poor kid probably just wants to live his life in peace knowing that he is not destined to live long.
He wants to live out the remaining years he has enjoying the only entertainment he can compete in before he goes back to the eternal nether from which we came.
You people are nothing more than bullies


Did you like my attempt to make [insert mmo here] a new advertising phrase?
Now all the self hating retards with too much money will come crawling to feel bad about themselves and pay you money to make their life feel slightly less shit for a few minutes.

Its like tumblr but for straight men who need to feel superior to someone without actually knowing or doing anything useful.

>>378364071
Thats easy, just google "MOBA" and 95% of the results will "do this"

But you didn't actually say anything. If you want people to refute your argument, maybe you should come up with an argument first.

I don't understand. Why would you not want eSports to become popular?

If eSports takes off in America than gaming can be respected like someone who plays chess.

>>378356759
when the marketing bubble pops?

>>378365743
>those feet
>girl
Your not fooling me anon

>>378366312
Gaming becoming more "respected" and mainstream has done nothing but make games worse.

>>378367573
fyi people who only do "respectable" and "popular" things tend to have a low IQ.
people who have a low IQ tend to be easier to scam

There is no bubble, unless you're talking about shit like HotS or Overwatch which already died off anyway I'm pretty sure

>>378361209
are you denying theres lots of money in esports?

>>378367947
Not him but by "respectable" you mean conformism?

>>378366312
Gaming can be respected without the wannabe superstars running the medium.

>>378357776
Most of the big esports are free to play grinding simulators already.

>>378366312
The more popular something becomes, the more likely it is to compromise its quality by pandering to a large audience.

>>378368934
Video games have already become that in the AAA department.
