Seeing that I thought "Well I best make some content specifically for e-sports!"In the last 10 years Ive scrapped the project twice. It wasnt until my third attempt that I created what is now known as EF-12.Video games are in comparison to other mediums not held in very high regard by society. A player who took home a prestigious prize from a large e-sports event is unlikely to receive any sort of attention from society at large.I think the fact many think of video games merely as time-wasters or nothing more than a tool for companies to make money is a major reason for this.Shogi or Japanese chess started out in much the same way - as nothing more than a simple game. However its pioneers worked hard to promote it and now players are respected in society.I believe for video games to achieve a similar level of respect there are two important things: We must move away from the business-oriented concept of "If it wont sell we wont make it" The game must be able to be quickly fine-tuned and balanced by users to maintain its competitive element.EF-12 was developed with rule 1 as its primary goal. I believe rule 2 has also been achieved.I am very much looking forward to the day when users can join me in keeping both of these rules alive. Until then I will keep working on EF-12 by myself.
