Here I am, back from Australia. One thing you should know, if you plan on visiting Australia, is that within the first 30 seconds of arriving, you will hear the words 'yeah' and 'no' about 50,000 times. It is fun though saying the two words, when you do it with an Australian accent. Apparently, the Australian accent is achieved simply by emphasizing vowels. I did try kangaroo meat, and I have to say, it was delicious.
Oh well, back to work then.
Counter-Strike and Quake are two games with different strengths and weaknesses. Usually, their differences create antagonism. One game has lots of players, but the game itself is below professional quality. The other game has few players, but possesses professionalism. Instead of fighting each other, maybe these two groups should cooperate? If they make up for each others weaknesses, while retaining their strengths, it is possible a game could be created with the population and professionalism necessary to achieve professional success, in every way professional can be defined.
Or, we could keep fighting each other. Maybe we could make a game where the two groups fight each other in-game, instead of only on the forums? That might be more interesting. I'm not sure how it could work, technically speaking. One round of CS and one round of Quake? In video games, things not limited by reality, who knows what can be done. What I do know is, the world of esports is not necessarily profiting from the CS-Quake feud. We should either make feuding profitable, or stop feuding.
