Lately, I’ve noticed my younger cousins talking nonstop about gaming tournaments and prize pools like it’s a serious career path. I’m not against it, just confused. Is this really becoming a legitimate industry or just another tech fad that’ll burn out in a few years?
Honestly, you’re not wrong to be skeptical—gaming as a career used to sound like a fantasy. But things have shifted fast, especially in places like India. It’s no longer just teenagers playing for fun; there are leagues, corporate sponsorships, and even academic interest now. For a grounded look at this trend, check out how it’s developing here: https://www.iuemag.com/inspi-news/inspi-writes/the-rise-of-esports-in-india/ . It highlights how the scene is evolving with structure, serious money, and media backing. Definitely not just a passing phase anymore.
It’s wild how fast traditional notions of career are being redefined. What used to be hobbies are now legit professions—whether in content creation, digital marketing, or even gaming.
