If anyone watched the later parts of Quakecon, thinking it was an esports event, they would decide to never have anything to do with esports or video-games ever again. It is precisely the type of scene that drives away investors, as well as anyone with a shred of dignity. Perhaps the lowest moment, was when they convinced some of the missing-chromosome audience members to literally suck balls for prizes. One of them was something like a 12 year-old girl, which is borderline statutory rape. Regardless, it exposes the degrading mentality of id software, that they treat their audience as people who basically suck testicles for prizes.
Once again, it is made clear, that if esports and pro-gaming will work, id software is not the company to make it happen. The players did well, the faceit team did well, but as usual since 1999, id software did shit and left all the quality work to the community. It is perhaps overdue, that the community ceases to volunteer its superior services to id software, and demands either a share in the profits, or a split from participating with id software activities and products.
P.S.: If you're a Nazi, fuck you. You should be banned from this community. If anyone here honestly thinks that permitting Nazi's and their anti-semitic murder speech is helping esports, pro-gaming or this specific community, then you must be mentally challenged.
