In essence, the popularity of Team Edition here serves as a good litmus test for the level of degradation, both within the community and within individual personalities. In a personally developed community (like the one that existed at Baie), the transition to Team Edition happened quickly and almost painlessly. The same was true for the St. Petersburg championships. Because people understood what sports are and what is needed for them.
Yura, you're trolling shamelessly. At Baie, out of a hundred of the best players, only about fifteen remain as poker players. After the great St. Petersburg tournaments, where hundreds of people played, now fewer than ten people participate, and even then, they don't finish the tournaments. Indeed, Team Edition is a litmus test in this case.
And in various "swamps" with an abundance of stupid, weak people, with low vitality, with petty ambitions, etc., Team Edition/Variant Edition doesn't take root well, simply because it stirs up this swamp, showing it what the true pulse of life should be.
Speak plainly. The Heroes community is small; are you referring to World and Portal? I rarely visit Portal now, but I visit World much more often. And World is definitely not a swamp. If it's not a secret, how did Team Edition take root at Baie? How many games are played there, for example, in a month?
Nagan likes to fondly remember the old Heroes players in various flattering words.
You're right about that. I like to remember the old days. Because I had the chance to meet incredibly wonderful people in the Heroes world, and I could list them for a long time. They brought only positive emotions, both in real life and on the forums.
Forgetting that the modern Heroes players, with rare exceptions, are a pathetic imitation of the old Heroes players, simply a different psychological type.
Why did I come to this forum? Because the people who were on it brought positive emotions with them. The World of 2008-2009 was special. I would like to bring Zhenya, Invis, Loy, and Adelaide back to the forums. They were wonderful people. Now, a different group of people is coming in, I judge by the tribune. But the core, the heart of the forum, is still alive.
The modern Variant Edition players are the most similar to the old guard.
Modern Variant Edition players is a very broad concept. Let's just say, not all of them.
