I wish eSport had that sort of appeal here T_T
I never thought to hear a government official speak about gaming in a respectable fashion.

Sweden, Denmark and Norway has somewhat of a good relation with e-sport, almost like South Korea. Dreamhack, e-sport schools in denmark, norwegian prime minister visiting Norways biggest LAN festival etc etc.

E-sport is spreading. It's biggest in SK, but believe me, in the closest 10 years it will probably bloom out in the entire western world.

Looks like the edited version finally got "T" rating in Korea.

Black blood, no smoking, no swearing in cinematic. Looks like lots of adult koreans are considering buying the english version.

I seriously can't get why so many people dub this a "clever play". What's so clever about it? Rating boards exist solely as a censorship control valve which is uses to satisfy financial interests. No, they are not for your kids to grow kind and uncorrupt, they serve only one purpose - dirty marketing, the same goes for copyright agencies and any other censorship agency. What's clever about using a tool in the way it's meant to be used?

Distribution of SC in Korea is handled by Hanbitsoft, not Kespa, no? Anyway, Blizzard should take legal action against this. Let the fuckers rot.
