Why Esports is Growing Fast

Hardik Pandya I don’t know why I said this, but you get the point Becoming a professional gamer is as difficult as becoming a professional athlete You need skills, you need practice, you need patience Every guy is a Sachin Tendulkar in their lane But India has lakhs and crores of such lanes And as a result, lakhs and crores of Sachins too But that doesn’t mean than everyone plays for India Professional gamers become professional when they play When they practice playing the same game consistently for 50-60-
70 hours Develop small-small skills A lot of times as an audience we see that a 17 yr old won 3 million dollars in Fortnite worldcup And his fate has changed in a night But, every overnight success takes years in the making If you actually want to make a career in gaming And become a professional gamer Then you have to look at it as a profession and not a hobby We noticed the journey of many professional gamers And this trend is common everywhere Every journey has flow & that flow looks something like this Choice of games Community of gamers Tournaments Victories And Sponsorships It means only

scope in gaming Gaming is an interactive storytelling format And in this industry, a commercial artist has a lot of scope And I say commercial artist Because here, according to the game’s requirement you have to create the art We have collected a lot of resources about designer arts You can go through it in our YouTube video description And the third filed is ‘Back-end’ Just think, you are interested in gaming but you cannot play the game very well And you don’t even know the basics of Design Good news is that you

Like the games which promote gambling Just think, hardly some of us would have been to a casino But when the casino itself comes to your place Gets downloaded in a click and stays forever with you Then what will happen? Every person can become a gambler Gambling is a State subject in our country It means every state decides what is allowed and what’s not So we have to
become smart How to identify gambling related games? Just ask 3 questions to yourself 1. Is money involved in this game? 2. If you lose in this game, then is it because of a choice? Lets take a simple example, In Ludo, we decide which piece to move And things change according to that But we don’t make a choice in Snakes and Ladders So if an app makes you play a common game like Snakes and Ladders with money, then that is gambling as well 3. Do you improve with time and practice? Usually
you learn the rules of the game first Then you make mistakes And by doing those mistakes again you improve But, you never improve in gambling Because things are not based on your decisions The biggest problem is, these gaming companies collect data from you When do you play games, against whom do you win, against whom do you lose, how much do you bet and when do you stop playing All these
things are known by those gambling games And according to that they change your gaming experience So they do whatever it takes to make you a gambling addict PART 4: Conclusion Gaming is the future of interactive storytelling And the future is here In this future we have to be careful and take advantage of this opportunity as well And there are many areas in gaming, where Indians can shine We
can develop games like Raji In animation, we can work on games like GTA And in back-end, solve a lot of data related problems In its almost 200 billion dollar industry, there is a lot of scope for India And there is hope where there is scope If this video added some value to you then do share it with your friends And don’t forget to checkout SCALER Because it helps us and this channel a lot So click on the link in the
