But he points out that _ Apex Legends future Legends _ has, on the whole, attracted older players who tend to be more mature than some of the competitive _ Fortnite _ players. For him, this signals more sustainability as a competitive game. Plus, it helps that the Respawn team remains continually committed to improving the g

Quite frankly, I think it's disgusting that these publishers have the nerve to put Black Lives Matter banners on their games when most black people aren't allowed to play them without issues. To me, it's the modern-day equivalent of a "No Africans Allowed" sign. African gamers aren't asking for special treatment, We just want to be treated the same as everybody e

Further, this could help balance the lobbies. The theory would be that someone who has gotten "good teammate" accolades has earned the right to not have to squad with potentially toxic teammates. It wouldn’t have to be the case every game, but the "good teammate" would overall have the benefit of playing far fewer games with potentially toxic rand

This may come as a shock as many considered Pathfinder to be an easy top choice pick since the launch of the game. With online multiplayer games, you always have to be fearful of your favorite character getting nerfed by the weakening of their abilit

Most teams still feel the need to have one member use Lifeline, but that may change as more and more people get used to Loba. There comes a point when healing isn't good enough and teams will need additional abilities Lifeline doesn't have to turn the fight in their fa

The largest black community lives in Africa and has a long history of being treated as second-class, whether it's colonialism, the slave trade, or gaining access to world-class events. The stereotype of Africa being poor, dirty, and underdeveloped is still strong up to this day with no sign of change on the horizon. Yes, some places are less developed, but in the last few decades, the continent has made massive strides in terms of technology and has seen incredible growth. Despite all the progress, most video game publishers don't have a single server on the continent, and exclude Africa from their events complet

Just like with the Off The Record skin discussed in the last entry, the Bootlegger skin has a sister skin that's pretty much a palette swap. This one also happens to be the variant that places an emphasis on red, black, and white as its color focus. This skin makes Loba look very dapper and fits into the aesthetic theme of the entire season. People will often use the phrase "dressed to kill" and Loba is communicating every bit of it with this outfit. It could also be mistaken as someone's created character in Red Dead Onli

Of course, streaming is the quintessential work-from-home job. Save for a few outliers, few professional streamers and video game players are in a hurry to move to big cities that require a high cost of living. Dazs ended up in New York for a completely unrelated rea

He points out that big organizations such as 100 Thieves and FaZe haven’t invested in the game’s competitive scene. And, perhaps in part due to his role with SoaR, he can look at it realistically from a business perspect

If you wouldn't have shown people near the game's release that Gibraltar would become a top-tier legend in the game they would have likely laughed at you. He was once considered unplayable as his sluggish movement speed and giant hitbox made him almost impossible to win w

Not only is Wattson one of the fan favorites aesthetically, but she's also placed herself as a go-to selection when it comes to both casual and competitive play. Her late father would likely be very proud of her for t

Wraith is one of the 3 legends who have a skin that is gifted to players once they purchase the battle pass for Season 5. The other two are Revenant and Bloodhound, and out of the 3, she sadly has the least interesting skin. It shouldn't be too much of a bummer as Wraith has plenty of rock-solid skins, and her skin for Season 5 isn't too shabby itself. There doesn't seem to be a lot of rhyme or reason for the way it's colored and that lack of cohesion makes the thing feel messy and less interesting over

Mirage may present himself as a bumbling idiot, but much like Marvel's Deadpool, he's much more capable in battle than he gives off. Some legends like Pathfinder were weakened with the Season 5 update, but Mirage was one of the lucky ones who had an ability overhaul for the bet

The Off The Record skin for Loba happens to be of her four extremely rare cosmetics. It has a sister skin that keeps much of the same shape and looks but changes the entire color scheme of the outfit. Off The Record focuses on a red, black, and white look that seems to just be a combination that always looks good. This skin makes Loba look like she's the main character in a cyberpunk game or maybe even a high-end assassin. She tends to walk the line of femininity and intimidation, but this skin is 100% the lat
