Plus you can have an international event without displacing thousands of people or bankrupting a country.

Seriously though, which sounds more exciting: A game where you try to hit a ball into a hole, or a game where people are shooting lighting bolts at each other.

Video games are designed to always have something happening. Ever watch a football game? I haven't, but every time I've flipped past one, everyone is just standing around instead of playing. In video games there's no whistles, no sitting around waiting for the next play to start. There's no ref to make a bad call. If something is boring or uninteresting it gets patched out. Really the only downside is that the players never fight outside the game, but that's really just a hockey thing anyway.

this is either a great troll post or your brain is completely loving broken

either way lmao
