Fucking Asians can't just play a videogame, they have to make it their life.

Except the proportion is way the fuck off.
Koreans are by far the worst. Dying from exhaustion in cyber cafes, etc.
I don't know many Asians, you're right. I'm going by news reports and the frequency in which I hear them. I am sure there are MANY that I don't hear because they're in some shithole somewhere keeling over dead unreported.

I mean run a quick search and read how often it happens. It's pretty scary.
I mean shit, Koreans televise fucking Starcraft matches still. That's sad. (and I'm a pretty large gamer myself)
I spoke with a "Chinese Gold Farmer" on EVE once for quite awhile. He outlined his typical day of farming ISK on EVE for a few dollars a day and then spending his remaining free time playing WoW. (and usually spending that earned money to do so in a cafe)
Someone who is "rich enough" crunches a bunch of computers together and has them sign in on his accounts and has them farm in shifts, 24/7. He sells the in-game currency and pays them from the sales.
I felt bad for him up until he told me it's significantly better than slaving in a factory for worse pay, and obviously not playing a game for it.
