wow Wheat why did you lose control that much man disappointing to see a man go that way. It's just sad.
I fully agree with you guys opinion and don't think Sc is dead in any way but you could have put it there on mature way and not utterly lose yourself and act like a small child.

One of the weirdest things in the episode was Incontrol not thinking the guys who pirate the games matter. Maybe I misunderstood his point, but that was what I gathered at least.

Of course they don't matter in the period where they're playing the pirated version of the game, but how can he not see the chain of events that happened to so many who started out by playing a pirated version of bw or wc3?





First of all, he must not remember the sales numbers of BW over its 10 years existence. That game doesn't need his concern and pity.

http://vgsales.wikia.com/wiki/Best_selling_Blizzard_games

Second he doesn't acknowledge that piracy means easy access and mainstream. That's why the trend is to give the client for free for games and be clever to charge the masses differently.

Thirdly he makes the false assumption that 100 pirated copies = 100 lost sold copies.

Incontlol, don't ruin your esports image. It's the only thing keeping you afloat.

Dear Mr. djWEAT, I watched your show last night (Inside the game) and I have to say I was quite disappointing. First of all if you are going to have a guest like Destiny on the show you AS A HOST should try to tone the discussion down and on a level that doesn't involve you or your guests screaming at each other. Second is what the fuck dude ? You saw the 2 EG guys high fiveing each other and still yell at Destiny for ragequtting on the show? Who is really the kid?

Anyways props to Painuser the only grown up on your show and congrats to you wheat on making another Avilo drama.


Last night was the first time I have watched a show hosted by DjWheat and needless to say I was v. disappointed. Your conduct quite frankly was far worse than Destiny, you bought him on the show as a guest to portray his viewpoints only to circlejerk with the EGidrA/incontrol.

As a host you made little to no attempts to have an organised conversation, the only person who had valid points was PainUser which you did not give him space to talk and when Destiny left you got up and screamed like a retarded kid trying to look gangster. It was so embarrassing I had to mute the stream for that 30 seconds. Really really shit to put it the least.

And PainUser is right, our scene is going to die if Blizzard doesn't intervene or we do something to make Blizzard intervene.

This reminds me of the avilo incident... but now it's destiny, same people raging (Idra/Inc + Guest)... this childish attitude that the EG duo is showing is what gets SC2 to not be much liked from people from "outside" the game, this elitist kiddo attitude.

Some things could have been better on the show, people got too emotional and a different approach (not let InControl rant for 15 minutes for humor, and then bring Destiny on the show for a serious discussion, it is either/or, there was no other way this could have gone down the way the show was structured).

It was disappointing considering that both sides actually had some fair arguments in the discussion, and a lot more could have come out of the discussion. Destiny had one really good point, the game quality is important to keep people interested. I am losing interest in tournaments really fast, and the main reason is that I get a deja vu every time I see a spine crawler wall go up in a PvZ. The game has become more and more boring to watch, and it does not have to be, at a point a couple of months ago there was more build variety, there was a chance in early, mid, and late game. But now there is one build for zerg to rule them all. Protoss has only a single coin flip build to counter, and terran has variety but is hugely unpopular outside of korea.

Now, I agree with Idra and InControl is that the community can play a big role in fixing this, and I think it can be fixed in the same way that Brood War was fixed, maps! Both the community and professionals should make a more active effort to create more interesting maps where more builds are viable, where race chances are equal, not somewhat equal, but purely equal. Maps that can bring interesting games in early, mid, and late game. I will start watching SC2 much more again if the game diversity returns (I think the expansion can help fix some of the unit issues, but the maps also need more diversity and we all know Blizzard is not great at creating maps).

Actually i think djwheat handled it as good as he could.
If i was the host and some kid came into my show, raging, shouting, always talking over others and cutting them off, i would have thrown him out of the call instantly.
Thats all destiny did. Rage, shout and cut off the others.

Destiny is incapable of having a serious discussion, his raging and shouting arent even the main issues.
Even after idra agreed with destiny that blizzard is doing a terrible job (that was idra´s stance since forever) destiny didnt stop herping about the same thing the whole time.
The discussion had no progress to it because destiny just didnt wanna listen to the other guys arguments at all.
In his eyes, he is right and they are wrong, thus he didnt listen to them and kept on interrupting them.

To make it even worse, destiny pulled the "im right and you are wrong, i plug in the last word and then ragequit, leaving you with no way to respond" card.
That card has "i am 10 years old" written all over it, and destiny pulled it.

Funny how painuser really was trying to make a point that they wouldnt reach the same viewer numbers as back in the beta.
He seriously thought for a second that the viewer numbers were greater during the beta.
Good thing wheat told him whats up on that one.

well maybe it was kind of insulting and sometimes heated discussions like this one can offend ppl wich are not even paticipating at it. so many haters here can´t handle some kind of mature ppl bashing each other!

Both sides had some valid arguments it´s kind of sad that neither of the sides could respect that.

Somthing is for sure insultig Incontroll isn´t correct at all!

Thank you!! Someone who apparently has more than 4 brain cells, quite depressing to keep reading the same retarded, doom prophecies which now run hand in hand with over-sensitive cry babies calling for the head of anyone who dares show a sibilance of personality ><

This episode made me very sad... this is not the way that sc2 should present itself. If you want a grown up conversation we need more people like painuser, qxc, nony ect. Having an outburst like that when someone leaves the conversation because he's seriously pissed about something is just sad.

Now all my hope rests on the new state of the game...

Thought they would've learn't from avilo not to let those types of people onto a show. Was really enjoying it until Destiny showed up, generally try to avoid people I don't like, but when they pop up randomly like that its just

Anyways nice job Incontrol / Idra / DJWheat / painuser, although don't always agree then can express their points without sounding annoying and avilo/destiny-like.

Here's my objective take on the situation:

Destiny is correct, to a point. The onus is in fact on Blizzard to improve their game. Chat channels, a better way for UMS maps to be played by casuals, unranked 1v1, whatever. The problem is that Blizzard not only knows that they need to fix all those things, they know that we know that they know they need to fix all those things. And they still don't do it. No amount of #saveHotS twitter bombs or whiny reddit threads are going to make blizzard do anything.

This is where iNcontoL, IdrA, and DJWheat come in. They know that this is the case. They also know that there are things they can do that have the potential to increase or at least hold steady the amount of people participating in SC2 as an eSport. So they do them. They aren't worried about what Blizzard is or is not doing. They know that it's pathetic for there to be "lag screens at Blizzcon", but they can't make those lag screens not happen. So they focus on other things, things that they can improve and change.

And that is the real difference between what Destiny was saying and what ITG was saying.

On another note, I think DJWheat's "explosion" after Destiny hung up was not only warranted, but completely the response I was expecting from him. Because let's be honest, it was a "pussy-ass cop-out" on Destiny's part. The entire argument devolved into something that was deliciously devoid of fluff, which is why I watch DJWheat's shows in the first place.
Like why do u use an oven instead of a fire? Coz its fucking better at cooking, that doesnt mean you want the shit to burn.

Wheat's analogy with American Idol/Breaking Bad was literally the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

its a good point, he just didnt get the opportunity to carry the analogy through because everything was getting all stupid. geoff mentioned the reasons, separately, earlier in the show. marketing people are not stupid, they do not just look at viewers and allot money to them proportionately, or put all of their money into whatever has the highest viewership. their goal is to sell products, pure exposure is good and with lol (and american idol) you get that purely because theres so many people watch. however if a big percentage of those people arent likely to buy your product whether you sponsor them or not, it's not really all that important how many people watch. lol has a younger audience, many of them are much more casual fans, they're less likely to have disposable income and less likely to buy a product purely because its attached to their game.

sc2 as an esport has proven its a sustainable, quality product. big companies have invested in it before and are apparently happy with the returns as they keep investing and more companies keep coming in. the fanbase is not going to disappear even if it rises and falls, and its a very dedicated, passionate fanbase.

so for the analogy, lol/american idol fans = 14 year old girls with no money, sc2/breaking bad fans = real people.


you forget that when ppl go to american idol, they pay tickets to go there, sponsors love sponsoring those events cause alot of ppl watch and I DO swear 14 yr old girls DO spend A shit load of money for shit they dont even need. IMO 14 yr old girls is a better market place because they spend on IMPULSE. real ppl must asset if they need it, if it would be good for them, etc etc.

to think a 14 yr old girl given her parents card goes on a fucking shopping spree (aka my sister) and my mother is a straight up conservative (who made me buy school supplies at the at of 14 because pencils dont grow out of tress bullshit)

-_-


LOL. Im loving the side story about pencils.

Anyways I think Destiny was right in his argument but should have just stayed calm and keep cool, this way he took his own credibility away a little.
Thumbs up for painuser he seems like a reasonable guy.
Wheat, Incontrol and Idra just act like highschool clique guys, totally embarassing for their age to gang up on one guy like that.
If you guys had a serious, calm discussion on the points destiny brought up, i would be interested to watch it, but I dont want to watch such a yellfest again.

cant believe people hate on idra and incontrol after the show.
they were clearly the ones with the better arguments and tried to dicuss the topic.
destiny just shouted his opinion over and over again and didnt even try to start a real conversation.
for gods sake, pls watch the show and dont post such dumb lies over and over again, its really annoying
