It's way better for SC2 than ogaming having it. It helps it grow. | ||

The Gaming Live caster casted with Ogaming Tv (you notice the name is pretty the same), but they have left to go to jeuxvideo.com's (known for his community of immature teenagers...). It's not about having a french stream or not, but Ogaming had made a lot of internationnal SC2 event : Ironsquid I, II, Nation wars I, II, a french tournament. Jeuxvideo.com has done... nothing for esport. If Ogaming fails, can't cast major event, lose money, they could stop doing SC2 event, and focus more on LOL. if ogaming PR didn't shit on the ESL they would've the WCS. sadly they can't even begin to have a half decent communication. | ||

They are the biggest gaming website in french, and they are willing to broadcast, produce and promote WCS. They have a huge audience, and they do not promote WCS on a secondary website, or a hidden section, they put it on the frontpage. They better ace this, it's another shot for SC2 to gain a lot of new viewers in France. Exactly. It's good for sc2 | ||

And all you read in this thread is people saying "NASL should have gotten it".Overall, It's a very good news. It's way better for SC2 than ogaming having it. It helps it grow. Thanks for the explanation. Sounds awesome. It's getting to be a bit of a running joke for me how every time there's news out of France, the French posters cry in unison that it's the worst news ever... and no one else has any idea what's going on and why it's bad. | ||

Kaoru from team acer and kere are behind this, and they worked with ogaming quite a lot. They are good friends, to the best of my knowledge. Plus ogaming has to realize too what it represents for SC2, and their upcoming tournament could use some spotlight. Some other casters may create drama, though. The french scene is a mess. | ||

If Ogaming are forced to cast on twitch, they can't cast without losing money of course they won't cast. It's like instead of being paid for working, you must pay for working. Ironsquid prod was way better than ESL prod. I've seen Ironsquid II on live, that was amazing. When you compared it to a WCS prod, WCS looks really poor. So i'm bit sad of this new, cause i think if this goes on there will be never Ironsquid III. I like a lot Makoz, haven't heard Tod casting in french a lot but Makoz/Tod seem to be a good duo caster, but the fact they leave Ogaming Tv for Jeuxvideos.com is sad. Jeuxvideos.com probably just want a webtv to promote their website, but they certainly won't make tournaments. | ||

But that guy is not 100 % reliable so nothing official. I think O'Gaming TV will be very professional. | ||

Basically, to explain the way I see (but maybe I'm wrong, no one has the big picture) it would be like if Day9 and his team wanted to cast WCS, are in negotiation with blizzard to get it for a long time and finally the stream goes to IGN/Gamester. I don't know what is behind the doors, what I know at some point the problem was that they wanted to use dailymotion instead of twitch because the production cost were higher than anything they could hope to earn from twitch (this is a particularity of France, where you get less money from twitch per viewers than anywhere else). Edit: But I'm unsure that was the only issue because it also looked like Millenium accepted to stream on twitch either and they didn't got it either. It is sad, for me who have followed them from the beginning and went to these awesome events the ogaming crew organized like both Ironsquid 1 and 2, and also for Millenium for the support they bring to starcraft (Millenium cup, stephano carrier... etc) to see getting, by the look of it, 'kinda fucked'. All I'm saying is that I am disappointed that those who put so much effort, so much passion and worked a lot to propose very good quality show are left behind from wcs. | ||

Considering they stream on twitch in France, I wonder how they except any ROI. Let see. It could be better though. If they asked Zerator or Anoss to cast, they could have asked money from them considering their "fame". EDIT : In addition, jeuxvideo.com (videogame.com in english) is already the first french web site about video games but one of the leasts about esport. I they want to compete Millenium or aAa on this topic, I must respect their courage. | ||
