    When did video games get so serious that we need to do these things? Ridiculous.

      I wonder if it has anything to do with the rise of e-sports and the monetary aspect of "professional" multi-player games?

        That's one of my theories. Money got involved and here we are. Now games are serious business! Remember when they were just fun?
