    Default E-sports today

    Hello,

    Interested to hear your opinion about esports that continues to grow in size and popularity. At the moment the scene will adopt a similar infrastructure to traditional sports. Also organizations will incorporate coaching practices from traditional sports. Even esports broadcasts will exceed the level of traditional sports broadcasts and may even eventually overtake some of those sports broadcasts in terms of viewership. Esports is already on a steady course to passing the billion dollar revenue mark by 2018, according to SuperData Research.

    So, will esports overtake real sports?

    This a bit old but I like the question, it is very applicable to RS players with the Deadman attempts. Hopefully this gets the ball rolling for some other people's opinions to be voiced...

    Overtake sports? Doubtful. There's vastly more people who play real sports than online ones. Will esports continue to become more and more popular? Probably. If you look at the sudden increase in popularity of Fortnite, this shows this trend. It is essentially just H1Z1 but somehow in the last year this style of game has become very popular and a whole esport has come out of it. Obviously osrs has been trying to make their own esport (with questionable success) but that nonetheless shows the trend towards making this a bigger market.

    Pablo Escobar: Colombians mark 25 years since drug lord's death
    The drug lord's once opulent mansion is due to be demolished in February and will be turned into a park for public use.
    Pablo Escobar is remembered as the "Colombian Robin Hood" in his former neighbourhood where his dark legacy lives on 25 years after his death.

    The drug lord's cartel supplied an estimated 80% of the cocaine smuggled into the US at the height of his career - making $21.9bn (£17.2bn) a year.

    Forbes listed him as the world's seventh richest man in 1989 with an estimated net worth of $9bn (£7bn).

    'Pivotal' climate change talks to start amid urgent warnings
    The conference in Poland follows urgent warnings about the need for action to protect the world from dangerous global warming.
    Crunch climate talks begin in Poland this week amid growing concern that political action is lagging behind the rise in global temperatures.

    The United Nations' conference, called COP24, is the most important gathering of climate negotiators since the Paris summit three years ago.

    Officials will thrash out a "rulebook" for declaring and monitoring cuts in greenhouse gases.
    The conference follows a series of scientific reports this year warning that far bigger cuts to emissions are needed than were agreed in Paris.

    In 2015 world leaders, including US president Barack Obama, China president Xi Jinping and prime minister David Cameron, signed up to a deal that would keep the rise in average global temperature to no more than 2C.
