God Confirm
We're all from Earthrealm. If not, cool pic brah.
it's a crime on this site to be anything less than 110% american
Not only unpopular.. but completely incorrect in my eyes.
I mean everyone know they make GOT it s pretty easy to see what kind of channel they are from there
I didn't know HBO did Game of Thrones though. I've never seen it.
) which shows dramas, news, sport, comedy, reality, soaps etc.
Okay. We'll see then next year. However, with Twitch being the primary medium for ALL FGC majors, minors, and weeklies, you can bet they hurt the ESPN2 viewership number. Personally, if we see the viewership and tournament attendance rise next year, you can definitely say, "told you so, Daemantalo, you fkin idiot," and I'll have to hold that like A-List Johnny Cage pressure. Till then, I really believe that Twitch and maybe another channel as opposed to ESPN2 is the better option for both making money and bringing attention to the scene.
I asked the same question earlier, those numbers on an event that was watched ALONGSIDE twitch, on primetime tv, on a Sunday, on a PAID tv sports channel, without any promo if any? Those are almost fudgin majestic numbers if you ask me!
i think these people forget where the FGC was 5 or 10 years ago. That or it's a salty ill conceived shot at SF. I'm leaning towards the second.
No one is taking a salty shot at SFV though. The thing is, if your scene is going to be represented via a TV channel that requires cable to have and caters to a demographic that hates video games and praises athletes, you better be damn sure the production and matches are diverse and hype. When you've got people on social media talking shit about your game because they wanted to watch something else related to sports, then yeah, it's bad publicity, regardless of what game you're playing.
look dont you DARE ask fuckin questions next time mateI didn't know HBO did Game of Thrones though. I've never seen it.
And not necessarily. It could be a TV show that just plays dramas. Or it could be like ITV over here in England (which of course if you haven't heard of that is completely and utterly ridiculous
Tbh I never really thought about it anyway, cos I'm not interested in american TV channels
Lesson learned. lol
MK got like 700k
mk had some advantages that SF did not. Pretty sure it wasn't on multiple platforms and actually had Americans competing. Not to mention it actually had some marketing and Promotions. Also pretty sure cw is a free channel not pay cable.
there's no such thing as bad publicity. Controversy isn't inherently bad when you have a product that has such a strong niche. The people who complain about video games are NEVER going to watch/be a part of the community. It's classic low risk/high reward, the FGC can't possibly lose members from it, all we can do is gain them.
Okay. I see your point of view. I understand your rationale. I personally just wouldn't want MK being dragged through Twitter because we tried to branch out into a field we had no idea about, come to find out that it may or may not backfire on us in terms of viewership or tournament attendance for next year.
i dunno, we'll have to wait and see. I just feel like for every one person that sends out a tweet about this thing they're never going to want to be a part of there's some other random dude finding out that we exist.
Seeing how he did last season... no offense taken
