The show starts, 5 chubby super nerds guys stand there with their arms crossed trying to look serious. Some "e-sport coach'" zooms into view, with a bowl cut and a neckbeard. "Epic" orchestrated music plays in the background, the crowd chants, waving glow lights.
That's when I tune out. It's so embarrassing to watch I can't take it. There is an image problem with e-sports, they try too hard to make it cool and fancy rather than build it towards normal people. It's computer nerds playing games, not hardcore athletes, don't pretend they are.
Every time a presentation at E3 or whatever tries to cater to e-sports, it's always the worst thing to watch.
I am sure there are plenty of people here that watches it. I can understand it if you watch it for a game you play a lot, but if there is a game you don't play, do you find it enjoyable to follow just for entertainment?
