    The #3 story was actually an issue in Rainbow 6. There was a seasonal skin called “Ember Rise”, which made players nearly invisible in the right circumstances and hard to spot at best. Pro teams were directly paying players to buy the skin. It was ultimately resolved by saying that all skins, on the characters and the guns, must be the default ones used in game. The skin still exists, but it was limited to that season for sale only. I wish they would remove the skin and refund players the cost of that item. Sucks, but I mean that’s a quick way to do it

    Say what you want, but the future is BMI technology (Brain-Machine Interface). Gabe is right, once that technology is grounded it will quickly dominate the gaming industry. Probably more like the entire entertainment industry. Books, films, video games, music, nothing will compare to sophisticated virtual experiences. It will most likely be the start of massive changes in human society, so I guess I can kind of understand the fear of it. But I am not afraid. I am very excited. This could be a huge moment for our species, when we take the next big step forward. If it turns out to be a step back, then we simply retrace our steps. It's not like we can't undo the changes we make.

    The problem is that gaming related injuries are being labelled as ‘weird’ like the title of this video. This reinforces the idea that it isn’t a serious issue, but it is. If a professional gamer can no longer earn money in their job because of it then it shouldn’t just be dismissed as weird. The problem needs to be addressed and fully understood so that procedure can be put in place to prevent it and help people recover. For example pro e-sports teams need physios in the same way as professional sports teams do
