Ang Pag-unlad ng Online Gaming sa Pilipinas

Naging isang kultural na fenomeno sa Pilipinas ang online gaming, na nakapagtutuwa sa mga puso at isipan ng milyun-milyong Pilipino sa buong arkipelago. Habang tayo'y bumababa sa mundo ng online gaming sa bansa, malinaw na ito ay higit pa sa simpleng libangan; ito ay isang umuunlad na subkultura na nagbago sa mga taon.

Isang Umuunlad na E-Sports Scene

Isa sa mga pinakamarikit na bahagi ng online gaming sa Pilipinas ay ang umaasenso nito e-sports scene. Ang kompetitibong paglalaro ay nagbago mula sa pagiging isang espesyalisadong interes patungo sa pangunahing palabas. Hindi lamang mga Pilipino ang naglalaro ng mga laro kundi pati na rin ang pumapanood upang makita ang kanilang mga paboritong koponan at manlalaro na makipagtunggali sa pandaigdigang entablado.

Ang lokal na mga torneo at liga sa e-sports ay nakakuha ng malalaking popularidad, kung saan ang mga laro tulad ng Mobile Legends, JILIBET, at League of Legends ang nangunguna. Ang mga koponang e-sports ng bansa, tulad ng Bren Esports at TNC Predator, ay nagkaruon ng pandaigdigang pagkilala, nakikipagsabayan sa mga pinakamagagaling sa buong mundo.

Pag-usbong ng mga Gaming Influencers

Isa pang mahalagang bahagi ng larangan ng online gaming ay ang paglitaw ng mga gaming influencers at content creators. Binigyan sila ng mga plataporma tulad ng YouTube at Twitch na magluwal ng bagong uri ng mga manlalarong Pilipino na nagpapatawa at nagtuturo sa kanilang mga manonood sa pamamagitan ng live streams at mga video.

Hindi lamang ipinapakita ng mga gaming influencers ang kanilang kasanayan kundi nagbibigay din sila ng mahalagang kaalaman sa mga estratehiya sa gaming, mga pagsusuri sa mga pinakabagong laro, at kahit pa mga pagtingin sa buhay ng mga manlalaro. Marami sa kanila ang nagkaruon ng dedicated na mga tagasunod, at ang iba ay nagtungo sa kanilang passion para sa gaming tungo sa isang full-time na karera.

Gaming Bilang Aktibidad ng Lipunan

Nag-transcend ang online gaming sa mga hangganan ng paglalaro nang mag-isa. Ito ay naging isang aktibidad ng lipunan, isang paraan para sa mga kaibigan at komunidad na magkakonekta at magkaugnay. Kilala ang mga Pilipino sa kanilang malakas na pagkakapatiran, at ito ay nahahalata sa paraang kanilang hinaharap ang online gaming.

Nag-aalok ang online multiplayer games ng pagkakataon sa mga Pilipino na magsama-sama ang kanilang mga kaibigan, sumali sa mga komunidad ng manlalaro, at kahit na makilala ang mga bagong kaibigan mula sa iba't ibang bahagi ng bansa. Ang mga voice chat at in-game messaging platform ay naging mga virtual na pook ng pagsasama kung saan nagpaplano, nagch-chat, at nagbabahagi ng kanilang mga karanasan sa gaming ang mga manlalaro.

Gaming Para sa Kabutihan

Sa kabila ng libangan, ginamit din ang online gaming sa Pilipinas para sa mga mabubuting layunin. Naglunsad ng fundraising campaigns at charity events ang mga manlalaro at mga organisasyong nauugnay sa gaming community. Ang mga kaganapang ito ay nag-aambag ng pondo para sa iba't ibang mga layunin tulad ng tulong sa mga nasalanta ng kalamidad, medical assistance, at edukasyon.

Naging sikat ang mga gaming marathons at charity streams bilang mga paraan upang magambag sa lipunan habang ini-enjoy ang kanilang mga paboritong laro. Ito ay patunay sa kabutihan at pagkakawanggawa sa loob ng gaming community.

Ang Kinabukasan ng Online Gaming

Sa pagtingin natin sa hinaharap, mas maliwanag pa sa kailanman ang kinabukasan ng online gaming sa Pilipinas. Sa mga pag-unlad sa teknolohiya, ang pagpapakilala ng virtual reality (VR) gaming, at patuloy na pag-usbong ng e-sports, ang subkultura ng gaming ay magpapatuloy sa pag-unlad.

Hindi lamang nagbibigay ang online gaming ng mga Pilipino ng isang mapagkukunan ng libangan kundi pati na rin ng plataporma para sa pagsasarili, pagkakapatiran, at pakikibahagi sa lipunan. Ito ay hindi lamang naging simpleng pastime kundi naging integral na bahagi ng kultura ng mga Pilipino, na nakakapekto sa paraan ng pagkakonekta at pakikipag-ugnayan ng mga tao sa digital na panahon.

I would love to be platchat anon hell yeah. And yeah I get youuuu, I can't really play bc my laptop Struggles to run the game (and also I'm dogshit lmao), which does just mean I spend even more time watching valo. I've watched so much over the years that I can fall asleep to it now, rip

I also root for FNATIC! I love them sm, Boaster is so funny and such a good leader imo, I'm glad he's getting his moment to shine. I didn't watch much vct last year but I remember watching back during gambit era so it feels very full circle to watch chronicle back on top too. I have some holdover affection for the old v1 players like zellsis and vanity, I just remember the cat ears so vividly lmao. I also watch a lot of sliggy so liquid also has a place in my heart, and I fell in love with the guard at the start of the year when they were at the ludwig tarik invitational, so I'm so happy that they get to go to vct next year. I also had a phase of watching a bunch of s0m streams but unfortunately I still kind of have a love hate relationship with nrg.

But honestly I will watch almost any team, during the regular season I watched almost every emea and americas game (pacific was at terrible times for me unfortunately), so I've rooted for most teams at some point, I just love watching pro play at the end of the day

falling asleep to valo noises became a thing when I started regularly watching punz it's surprisingly calming to listen to bc there's not too much variation in noises it's all pew pew n whatnot

I'm pretty new to the whole vct thing honestly (my first tourney was last fall, after october I just threw myself into the game changers champs LOL) but I'm so sad I missed the gambit era that team had so many of my now-faves like Chronicle and nAts—I'm jealous! But yeah I really love Liquid too, Sliggy's one of my favorite watchpartiers after sideshow and bren (and doug sometimes when he's live)!!

I never really knew NRG pre-franchising, only that eeiu and hazed were on there and that now I like eeiu by virtue of being an M80 player, so I don't have the same holdouts but I really love s0m and FNS together in content bc their LCQ costream was SOOOO funny and their stream clips are GOLDEN.

I'm v much in the same boat, I gained like 60k channel points across all the valo channels during regular season because I did the same thing LMAOO

Whumptober 2022 Day 3: A Hair's Breadth from Death

The Shadowhand knew what his fatal error was. He had slipped, and allowed the ginger haired Scourger into his life, despite every warning sign not to. Let himself believe that the man could be saved, could be turned away from the darkness of his past and into the light of his future. Their future, together, where they could run away and study and live a happy, quiet life.  Essek had been a fool, and now he was paying the price.

The price, it turned out, was a cold steel knife aimed at his kidney, his arm twisted painfully behind his back, and the scent of the dying fire filling the bedroom.  The bedroom that he shared with Bren.

“Well, Shadowhand, it appears your little game is over.” the deep voice behind him growled.  Wulf, if he remembered from Bren’s stories.

They had come into the room so fast, that Essek had barely noticed. He knew exactly how, of course.  Bren had disabled the arcane security system that kept Essek’s towers guarded against incursions, and let them in. It was quite literally the only possible solution. And Essek hadn’t even registered Bren leaving the bed.  Light, the man got up to pad around the room and get a drink most nights anyways, so Essek had grown used to it. 

For a brief second, he wondered if that, too, had been part of the ploy.  Get Essek used to him getting up and out of bed, so when he did that night, it seemed normal. How long had Bren been planning this? Had he always wanted this? Essek had been so sure that Bren had changed. But maybe he had just been wrong.

Across from him, his fire-haired wizard stood stock still, posture perfect and face hardened. Essek looked into his eyes, ice blue and so kind just hours before, searching for any indication of his true mind.  It was no use though. Essek found nothing but cold determination and emptiness.  He wanted to return the same distant resignation, but he couldn’t.  Essek could already feel tears streaming down his face as Wulf held him steady.  He knew that any begging would be in vain, though, and didn’t bother.

Beside Bren, stood the woman.  Astrid, looking just as he had described, her hand a steadying brace on his shoulder.

“Do you have any last words, Shadowhand? Or will you enter the Hells a silent, sobbing mess?” she asked, her voice laced with venom.

“F-fuck you.” Essek spat. Behind him, Wulf pressed the dagger in further, tearing into the skin a bit. He let out a shout, and Astrid simply smiled.

“You know, Bren told us something very interesting about you, Shadowhand.  Can you guess what it is?” she teased, stepping forwards a bit, her hand still guiding Bren. “He told us that you are not consecuted. So, when you die here, you will die for good. You will not get the chance to come back and stalk this world again. You, like all the rest of us, will rot wither and be no more. Isn’t that wonderful?”

“N-no…he…no…” Essek sobbed, looking to Bren. It couldn’t be true. It had been Essek’s closest secret, told only after many drinks and kisses had opened him up.  And now, here he was, suing that knowledge to rip him apart. To kill him in his own home, under the teasing light of a Luxon that would do nothing to protect his soul.  It was cruel. But then, cruelty was the way of the Scourgers, in the end.

“Oh yes, Shadowhand. But, truly, if. You have nothing left to tell us, I would rather have Wulf end this now.  If we have questions, a cleric can ask your corpse.”

“Say goodbye.” Wulf said from behind him, the dagger pressing deeper.  Essek shouted again, another sob ripping out of him.

“B-Bren…” The name of the man he almost loved, almost ran away with, almost lived with, was the last word on his lips. Without a moment’s hesitation, Wulf impaled him with the dagger, the blade tearing through muscle and bone. Essek’s vision flashed bright, blinding white for a second, before fading into black.

It was a shame, really, that Esseks vision faded so fast.  That he went unconscious without looking closer at Bren. If he had, he would have seen the tears, streaking silently down Bren’s face, as he tried and failed to hide them from his fellow Volstrucker. He would have seen Wulf looking right at Bren as he told Essek to say goodbye, and he would’ve seen Astrid tightening her grip on his shoulder, preventing him from running to the body.

If Essek had remained conscious for only a few more moments, he would have seen Bren break down, falling to his knees as the life faded from the elf's eyes.

Also things hiding under my bed if I'm especially paranoid I'll vault myself onto my bed like I'll take a running start and everything. Also also seeing things in my reflection, people breaking into my house just to mess with stuff and leave and not actually take anything, being watched from the shower drain or vents in the house, and anything that's been shown in the Final Destination series <3 laser eye surgery my beloathed

34) When you get angry, how do you show it?

In unhealthy ways but I'm getting better at being non-destructive and not hurting myself ! It only took 22 years of my life but better late than never <3 But my first instinct is always to like, break or hit something even if it's myself or my own property but from an emotions standpoint someone could tell if I was angry if I was just consistently silent or snappy and rude for no reason and the vibes I will just give off are. not good ! like just by looking at me you could probably tell if I was mad but also my resting face can either make you think I'm sad, pissed/angry, or tired ! It really depends shdfjkf

And I answered the others in the last ask I got ! Thank u Bren my great friend Bren :)

The Beast of Baker's Bridge

Finally, it's out there. 2039 words long. The Gang starts to feel a little cooped up after three snow days in a row and decides to go hunt a local cryptid in the snow, despite the snow and the wind. One of their own gets lost, and they have to hunt for their friend instead. Tw hypothermia

William stomped his feet a little impatiently as everyone began to stumble out of the woods and back towards his truck. Everyone seemed to be laughing and enjoying themselves, if not a little cold from the adventure. It had been a long weekend, spurred on by the school district canceling classes for three days due to the snowfall and large blizzard that had hit town. This, of course, had resulted in the Gang all spending the better part of three days driving around town together and causing some general mischief and mayhem. It had also resulted in all of them spending most of the weekend in the Alistairion’s basement, playing board games and watching movies, and, tonight, telling ghost stories.

    Maureen of course had started that event of the night. But the rest of them had been quick to pile on their own tales, until Brennan had brought up the infamous local legend of the Beast of Baker’s Bridge.

    “Do-do you think it’s real?” Mary had been sitting on Aiden’s lap, his arms wrapped around her. Mary was famously the most superstitious of the group, and by far the easiest to scare.

    William had rolled his eyes. “Of course it isn’t, Mary.”

    “But...but all those people...how else could they have disappeared?” 

    “I’m sure they just got lost, dear.” Aiden said, kissing Mary’s head. Mary didn’t look convinced at all.

    “Well. There’s only one way to find out, I suppose.” Maureen had suggested from her perch on the couch, eyebrows waggling. 

    “You can’t be serious.” Hamish said with a sigh. 

    “Why not?” Valeria had piped up with a shrug. “We’ve all been trapped in here for hours, fresh air would do us all some good. Besides, we can go get Pizza Hut after.”

    That had been the deciding factor, really. The promise of pizza had lured them all up the stairs and bundled into their coats, waving cheerful goodbyes and promises to be back soon to Hamish's parents  before piling into the back of William’s truck. Armed with flashlights and blankets as they sang loudly to any song that came on the radio. Twenty minutes later they’d tumbled out of the truck, wandered the words, inevitably got bored, and began to head back, remembering the promise of pizza. 

    William sighed as he pulled his jacket tighter around his shoulders, then dug out a cigarette and his lighter, offering one to Maureen as she came and leaned against the truck next to him. They joked and laughed for a while as everyone else came back. William climbed into the cab of the truck, started it, and got the heaters running. 

    “Alright, we got everyone?” Brennan asked, frowning.

    There was a quick chorus of agreement from everyone, and William frowned as he glanced at the group, counting. 

    “Where’s Mish?”

    The Gang fell silent. William opened the door of the truck and layed on the horn.

    “MISH! C’MON, MAN! PIZZA HUT WON’T BE OPEN ALL NIGHT!”  He shouted once the horn died. No response came. They all shuffled around a little, trying to warm up some. Finally they started chatting amongst themselves again. 

    “God, where is he? We’ve been waiting for like ten minutes now...” William asked, flicking ash off his cigarette. 

    “HAMISH!” Brennan bellowed, “COME ON!” 

    Mary gasped, her hands flying to cover her mouth as her eyes filled with tears. William’s face melted into one of concern, glancing at Aiden as Mary’s hands lowered and her lip quivered.

    “What if--what if the Beast got him…” 

    Aiden wrapped his arms around Mary and shook his head a little. “I’m sure he just got a little turned around.”

    “What about the river?” Valeria’s voice was more serious than William had ever heard it. “Maybe he broke through the ice and fell in, he could have gotten hurt.” 

    Maureen stomped out the last of her cigarette in the snow. “We should go look for him. It’s going to start getting a lot colder fast. We should make sure he’s ok.”

  �� “Maurie’s right. But we can’t split up, we can’t risk anymore of us getting lost.” Brennan said calmly, “Mary, Val, you two stay here with the car in case he comes back. Keep it running and warm and honk the horn if you see him. Aiden, You and Maurie head to the left, keep your eyes peeled. Will, you and I will go right, towards the bridge. Everyone watch your step, be careful, and keep your eyes and ears open, ok?”

    Everyone nodded and headed out in their assigned directions, calling Hamish’s name as loudly as they could, flashlights skimming through the trees.

 ******

    “HAMISH! HAMISH!” William’s voice cracked as he stumbled through through the snow. He tripped a little, catching himself on a tree. He'd been much more calm twenty minutes ago when the search had begun. But now there had still been no sign of his best friend, and the panic was getting harder and harder to ignore.  “HAMISH!”

    “Will.  Will, we have to go back to the car. We’re not gonna do Mish any good if we get hypothermia.” Brennan’s teeth chattered a little as he grabbed William’s shoulder, “We can go back to the car, warm up and let Val and Mary take a turn--”

    “We can’t, we’ll lose ground, what if--” William was barely aware of the tears that started streaming down his face.

    “Will. He’s-”

    “Don't say that he's fine! He’s not fine, He’s not! He’s been out here for hours! It may already be too late!” William shouted, turning around to face Brennan. “He’s not fine. He’s not. We can't waste time, we have to--” He choked on a sob and started to slump to the ground. Brennan caught him in a tight hug, sniffing a little too. 

"Ok man. Ok." He finally said, wiping his eyes, "We'll look a little while longer."

William nodded and pulled away from Brennan, wiping his nose. "Yeah. Ten minutes?"

"Ten minutes."

They nodded a little, turning back to the darkened woods and shouting Hamish's name. Brennan grabbed William’s arm, shushing him a little and shining his flashlight into the trees.

“Did you hear that?” He asked.

    For a moment, William’s heart slammed to a stop, wondering if it had been some animal, maybe the Beast… His ears strained to hear over the wind, and his breath caught in his throat when he heard it.

    “Crying?”

    Brennan nodded once. “MISH? HAMISH, WHERE ARE YOU?”

    William took up the cry and tore off in the direction of the quiet sobs that they’d heard. He almost ran past him, slumped up against a tree. He was shivering, and his breathing was slow and shallow, pierced by hiccups and small sobs. 

    “Bren, Bren I found him, he’s over here!” He shouted as he scrambled to the ground next to Hamish. “Mish. Mish, hey it’s me.”

    Hamish blinked slowly, frowning. “Will? Bren’n? Wha’re you guys doin’ here?” His voice was slurred as he looked at them, his eyes barely focusing.

    “We came to get you, buddy.” Brennan said gently, “Do you know what happened?”

    Hamish’s frown deepened as William pulled off his hat, pushing it on to Hamish’s head and pulling it over his ears. “No. ’S r’lly cold…”

    “Yeah. Yeah, it is. Let’s get you back to the truck, ok?” Brennan grabbed Hamish’s arm as he shifted to lift him to his feet. William quickly followed, grunting a little as Hamish fought against them at first, moaning as they pulled him away from the tree. “It’s a bit of a walk.” Brennan warned Hamish.

    “No problem though, right? It’ll get your blood moving, warm you up a little!” William tried to force a note of cheerfulness into his voice. 

    The three boys stumbled through the snow and blowing wind, Brennan calling out to the woods in an attempt to let everyone know they’d found Hamish. William was trying not to cry, muttering to his best friend that they were getting closer. They were so close, almost there. Just a little closer. William had never been happier in his whole life than he was in the moment that he saw the truck, and he let out a relived laugh, squeezing Hamish’s arm.

    “We did it, Mish. We got back. We made it.” 

    “Oh my God.” Mary sounded like she’d been crying as she and Maureen ran foreward. Brennan passed Hamish over to Maureen, then sprinted the rest of the way to the truck, letting out a long blast with the horn.

    “VAL! ADIEN! WE GOT HIM! COME BACK!” He ripped open the back seat, then slid in backwards, motioning for William and Maureen to help load Hamish in with him as he grabbed one of the blankets.”Will, if they aren’t back in five minutes go find-”

    “Mish.” Aiden grabbed the side of the door as he skidded to a stop. 

    “That’s everyone. Ok we have to go- we have to get him to a hospital.” Brennan nodded and waved for everyone to get in.

    “Is he wet? Did he fall in the river?” Mary asked breathlessly as she climbed into the back seat, squeezing in next to Hamish.

    “What does it matter?” William snapped a little, watching as everyone else crammed into the truck, seeming to refuse to want in the back, away from Hamish.

    “No, she’s right.” Valeria said from her shared seat with Maureen as William pulled out of the parking spot, “Wet clothes will just keep him cold.” 

Mary pulled the blanket open, gently grabbing at Hamish’s coat sleeves and frowning. “Here, yeah.” She and Brennan pulled the zipper of his coat down as William cranked the heaters up as high as they could go, angling them back towards Hamish. 

Aiden had pushed the window between the cab and the back of the truck open, twisting to fish out the blankets they’d brought with them. By the time he had gotten them free and had closed the window again, Mary and and Brennan had pulled Hamish’s wet coat, sweatshirt, and t-shirt off of him. Valeria and Maureen had both pulled off their scarves and coats as well, passing them back to Mary. She wrapped them around Hamish and draped the jackets over his shoulders and chest as Brennan went back to wrapping blankets around him.

Hamish’s eyes had closed again and his head lolled, his body still convulsing with shivers as his fingers curled loosely around the blankets. 

“Where’re we goin?” He asked, hiccuping a little as his head drooped to the left.

    “We’re taking you to the hospital, hun.” Mary explained patiently, wrapping an arm around his shoulders and gently rubbing his arm. “They’ll warm you up.”

    Hamish nodded a little, his head drooping farther to the side and his eyelids fluttering. 

    “Hey. Hey you gotta stay awake, buddy.” Brennan said, wrapping his arms around Hamish as well. Hamish let out an upset sound and a few words in Gealic that William didn’t catch from the driver seat. 

    “Mish.” Maureen called, reaching back towards him, “Mish, come on, you can’t pass out on us, man. Hold on, ok?”

    “’M tiered.” Hamish groaned. 

    “I know.” Maureen said, “I know, but you have to hold on. You have to.”

    “Can’t I jus’ sleep?”

    “No, Mish. No, we need you. We all need you to stick around, ok?” Mary said, pulling him into as tight a hug as she could manage. “We need you to- to-” She hiccuped a little and sobbed before Aiden kissed her head.

    “We need you to help us with homework.” He said.

    “And to remind us to drink water.” Valeria said.

    “We need you to keep playing football so that we have an excuse to go to the games.” William piped up.

    “We need you to make us watch stupid movies and put up stupid Christmas decorations.” Brennan said.

    “We need you to keep running the Revolution.” Maureen’s hand reached out for his, but her fingers barely brushed his knee.

    “We need- We need you to stay awake.” Mary hiccuped again.

    Hamish blinked a little, his breathing still labored and and slow. “I need...I need you guys too.” 

    Aiden reached around Mary and pulled a blanket tighter around his friend. “Hold on, man. Just keep holding on.”

Bad and sleep and meh and good and sleeepy today. I realized a few minutes ago I basically ate barely half as much as I should all day. I don't want to EAT enough to get the minimum calories I should, tho (just not hungry) so instead I'm having a double pack of marshmallow lovers cocoa. Just one (large) mug, but a double dose of cocoa mix and marshmallows. 😁

I wanna go back to ffx a bit more since I fell asleep while playing earlier, but I don't want to rearrange my stuff to play in bed. Maybe I'll move everything around, but to watch a movie or something instead of gaming. Same initial effort, but zero effort once it's in place

Drunk animal crossing again tonight, so ask me things! Bren is playing a game with his friends so I’m bored :( btw, hopefully getting my recording card soon so I can film and stream to you guys 💖

Yessss omg I love platchat, they're so funny but it's also so interesting to just hear more about the game and strategy and stuff around it, it has been absolutely terrible for my valorant addiction bc it's just even more content lmaoooo, I'm watching josh and brens costream of the game rn actually. What teams do you root for?

I WAS WATCHING THEM TOO!! Josh and Bren (and Mimi!! she was there too while I was watching) turn everything they touch into gold, they're amazing and you get me so deeply my valo addiction has been brutal recently like I get off of work and then queue with friends for 3 hours and plat chat makes it worse 😭 I'm not really picky with my teams, though I will say my favorite team is FNATIC, Boaster wormed his way into my heart after they beat Sentinels at LOCK//IN and now I absolutely adore them—their content team is amazing too and even when they lose it's fun ykyk?

Also, PRX, EDG, Sentinels, and NRG have to be some of my favorite teams overall—there are players scattered around that I love watching though, like Aspas, Cryo, and nAts!! Also, the Guard and M80's valorant teams from NA Challengers are some of my favorites—I was a Cryo and johnqt duo enjoyer on stream for most of 2022 so it was epic that I got to see them both thrive on teams :>

[soverwatch]

List of favorite things said by casters during the late games tonight because this is peak entertainment

(Also these probably aren’t 100% accurate and I honestly couldn’t tell you who has said what because tired me can’t recognize voices apparently)

1. Adora, you are a little bit mad there sunshine

2. ‘DIE DIE DIE’

Where’s that death blossom coming from?

I was gonna say it’s taking place in China but I realized this stream is actually taking place in China

3. It’s rough out there for a panda

4. I can feel it in my bones Bren

5. Cr0ng is just having a bit of an adventure out here, Dora the explorer

6. There’s some sort of analogy here I can’t think of- Maybe like some sort of off-work clown who stumbled into the road and is just dragging people down

Dear lord I don’t know what you we’re going for there, that sounds like something out of IT or something out of the Joker

7. Dead in the water. Dead, much like the dodos unfortunately, Josh. Extinct I hear

Yes, have you only just heard recently?

Yes

That was a recent development. Very sad news

8. [The whole panda exchange at beginning of map 4, 2:30ish in the stream] Do persuade them to reproduce, if you can find a panda, try to persuade it to reproduce

9. Only in a Chengdu game [Mercy getting killed by a D.Va remec.... yes, that did happen]

10. Bren spent probably about a minute educating us about tiles found in Greece vs. Slovakia and Croatia and other places at the start of Ilios, it was very informative, could even save my life someday [2:46ish in the stream]

11. I don’t think a hack would make your legs stop working

Bionic legs

[Something something too tired to annotate something]

I want to hear the lore behind Winstons legs

12. Young Korean girl but she can eat like no other

Fangs, claws, all for taking down Pharahs

13. An absolute slobberknocker Josh

Bonus +1 Casters : Eileen

Me : 🎵come on Eileen 🎵

And then I probably missed a thousand and one other things but here ya gooooo! Also sorry that I got a bit out of it at the end there, just... sleep
