A great read and beautifully written. A good reminder of while video games are fun and wonderful escapism, we have real issues in the world. And like any other art medium, games can be an introspective look into how we/others are feeling right now.
Hopefully 2019 is better for you and everyone else out there. Video games are whack
@notorious_pog: These are generally side events, with the participants of this also entering the main tournament which is happening at the same time. This is just a stepping stone in representation for female players in Smash (and FGC), and one day (hopefully) things like this won't be needed and everyone will just be equally comfortable.
In the UK Smash scene, I have seen people be accommodating to players from all walks of life, regardless of gender, race etc. But not all scenes are like this, and plus any excuse for people to play more Smash is good enough for me
