Currently working on a piece regarding just how much the Saudis have paid publishers, developers, pro gamers and streamers. here's a little nugget:
one top Twitch streamer made more $ in two hours of 'work' than a years worth of Chorus dark money influencer funds for all its creators combined

Just to make everyone feel worse about everything there's a world where Amazon sells Twitch to the Saudis which is a rumor thats already gone around and Microsoft eventually dumps gaming in favor of chasing AI, also leading to being sold to the kingdom. So think of it like these are the good times

spoke to Telegraph: the Saudi investment in gaming/esports is more impactful and worrisome than their investments elsewhere. if EA was told to focus on guns and football it wouldn't be too surprising

many of us have been sounding the alarm of Saudi control over gaming for years now. as I spoke to the NY Times they can pretty much keep this going forever so you better get used to the annual Riyadh Comedy Festival sponsored by EWC, EA, and slave labor

My mistake I meant 2025
it is 2035. 90% of all video game companies are owned by Saudi Arabia and Tencent. you must upload your passport and social security number to access the Steam forums. the FBI has custom roles to oversee all Discord servers. GTA 6 and Bloodborne PC have yet to be released

in the early days of Twitter and Reddit I put a lot of effort into onboarding the entire esports industry into both platforms with some pretty good success. now maybe I should have been leading by example but I was really hoping it would happen organically and it just hasn't
95% of esports twitter doesn't want to make the minimal effort of copying and pasting tweets to a 2nd platform, and then pops up a couple times a year to say "dang it sure is quiet here" so ... 🤷
