    I don’t much like the idea because video games are company driven. Like Apex exists only because of EA so its an advertising platform for EA. Unlike sports like basketball or tennis a video game like Apex or CS can’t exist independent of the company that owns it.

    Even playing it you are reliant on their servers unlike basketball where you can play it at a random park without the permission of EA allowing access. Different companies can start leagues for sports like basketball, but nobody really owns or controls who can play the sport.

    Maybe if some open source truly community run game was chosen.
