Is Video Gaming Still Fun For Pro Gamers?

The famous American writer Mark Twain once said "Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life", but how true is this? When you think of top jobs, soccer has to be up there considering you get to play a game, be worshiped by thousands of people, and get paid a fortune to do it. However, there are some players like former Tottenham defender Benoit Assou-Ekotto, current Arsenal player Benjamin White, and even Argentinian goal-scoring sensation Gabriel Batistuta who don't even like the game.

When you consider the sacrifices that professional athletes have to make in terms of their private lives, diet, and dedication to the sport, it is understandable that the novelty can wear off.

But surely this doesn’t happen to pro gamers? After all, who wouldn’t love to get paid to play video games?

We take a look below at whether this career is all it’s cracked up to be, whether pro gamers get fed up with their careers like the rest of us, and what they can do to keep the good times rolling.

How Pro Gamers Can Still Get Enjoyment From Gaming

Making the most of your job is easier for some people than others, and pro gamers have a pretty good place to start from. Here are some of the top ways that pro gamers are keeping the spark alive.

Explore Other Titles

Pro gamers will typically focus on one or two titles to ensure they stay at the top of their game. But that doesn’t mean they can’t enjoy other games for fun.

Players can make the most of a variety of consoles, games, and sites to enjoy the latest gaming experiences in between practicing their specialty. Online gambling is proving to be an especially popular option that is fun and can earn players money.

Betting expert Jaehyeong Park is a Baccarat site reviewer and has seen a lot of interest in this traditional game among online gamblers. Dating back to the 19th century, Baccarat is famous around the world, and online gaming allows bettors to play against other live players or AI competitors.

Interact with their Communities

Taking the time to interact with supporters can help players remember why they do it. Dedication to any discipline is hard work, and it can be easy to lose sight of the privileged position you are in, so speaking with other people in the gaming community can help you to refresh and get your head back in the game.

Travel the World

Taking part in international tournaments is an undoubted perk of being a pro gamer, and making the most of any travel by taking in local sights and culture should be a priority.

Why Pro Gaming can be Less Fun than it Seems

It is always easy for commentators on the outside looking in to tell pro gamers that they should be having fun every minute of the day, but in reality, it can be just as hard as any other profession where you have to perform at an expert level.

Dedication

Pro gamers will typically dedicate between 7 to 8 hours every day to playing their specialty games. Like any professional athlete, continued practice is required to compete at the top level and this can mean sacrificing a lot of other things.

Pro gaming can also lead to eye tiredness, hand and wrist pain, and sore backs and necks because of the long periods gamers will be sitting.

Too Much of a Good Thing

The idea of playing video games as much as you can may sound like a dream for many, but having to dedicate hundreds of hours every month can grow tiresome. Some gamers will specialize in a few different games to change things up, but to be at the top of your game requires a lot of natural ability and training.

Short Careers

Dedicating so much time to one or two games can help players rise up through the rankings, but it also means that careers can be cut short by games dropping in popularity. By dedicating so much time to a few titles, it can be a case of putting too many eggs in one basket.

If a newer title suddenly gains massive popularity, there will already be a long list of players who are well ahead of you.

Conclusion

There are pros and cons to all careers, and even the most fun and glamorous options can leave people questioning their career choices. However, to be a top professional gamer, you need the passion to drive you on, and each and everyone deserves their recognition.
