Beyond the Summit is closing. Sad day for esports. I'm sure we all remember BTS events fondly or some of their casting team.

GoDz/LD were some of the most genuine people I've interacted with in the dota 2 space. I always hoped they would be around forever

yeah im not sad about bts dying

back when it was only jd and bts, bts took a ton of tournaments and used really shitty 2$ casters all the time and never ever casted with their proper casters. they pretended it was to """""discover new talent"""""" but in the end it was just always the same shitty ass barely comprehensible trash casters game after game.

to me theyre the tortelini of broadcast studios, felt like the original ppl lost interest in dota long long time ago but dota was where they have had success so

Oh shit, hey Unleashing, heya Bluemoon (I feel like I've seen you playing a lot of PoE? I was playing a lot of PoE for a while).

A life update for me is: I quit my fancy job at the end of last year after grinding pretty hard for ~7 years and am taking a year or two to relax and maybe eventually try to make a game. Chilling in New York with no responsibilities turns out to be pretty fun!

That's great! Do you (still) climb a lot these days?

I wonder, does NY feel any different being able to choose when and where to go, compared to how it felt working like 12h/day?

I've just started climbing again after taking a bit off! I've got a lot more time to do it . It's a little funny that just cause of like, getting around, I'm not doing as many different things in a day as I might have expected, so far the city doesn't feel that different but I am definitely spending a lot more time doing things I want to do. Also it's only been a few weeks so like, we'll see in another six months.

I'll definitely let this thread know if I end up making any game stuff worth looking at :D

Bluemoon / Emu totally here you there - agree that PoE is well suited to *totally* immersing yourself for a bit but with the ability to step away pretty easily. I spent the first 2 weeks of the year basically just playing PoE till I got sick of it lol.

That's great! NY must have a great many places to choose from.

I hope you find some good rest and are reconnecting with all the possibilities a city like that offers.
Hoping to get to that with Berlin myself at some point in time. Maybe this summer will work or the next, we'll see!

lol ted is a huge hater

I dunno, I associate the early years of BTS with the tail end of DIY-feeling capital-E ESPORTS stuff, where there was a ton of enthusiasm for ESPORTS but not nearly as much professionalism as it feels like (to me at least, but tbh I barely pay attention now vs being super wrapped up in things things way back when) there is now. It's hard for me to not feel pretty nostalgic for that era! Also the BTS summit tournaments were good.

fwiw, from the vine, the interest waned because of working with valve. of course, their interest turned to smash which also was even more financially unwise but hey i guess they loved it.

When I got home from work yesterday and tuned into the stream, they had a slide with the starting times open. Aster-GG was planned to start at 10am (local time). So I checked what time it is now ... ah, 11.30 am! And the game hasn't started yet.
Man I could rant for a long time about this shit...

The delays and pauses are kinda out of control this major, coupled with audio issues. Kinda s hitshow, but the games are good at least.

Not really tbh! I kind of blanket assume that any game I beat is like 3+ years old anymore. Like I finally played thru Outer Wilds DLC last month, and the base game of that is already coming around to 3 years old. Doesn't feel like it, but here we are!
