You're right about that. I never expected that level of challenge from him but he did so well to be recognised very easily. I think you have done well too. You might get nominated next time.
It still doesn't mean you won't get scammed either. Being too careful isn't really a bad idea. You might make all the research and still end up in the wrong hands.
I never had that plan with my YouTube channel. I just post oddly once in a while just for fun. If I get to make money from it one day in the future, I'd be happy, if not, I'd still be happy with myself.
Personally, I pray for that day to come sooner rather than later because I have dropped so much games I would have been enjoying all because of cheaters in it.
I have the same feeling as well when it comes to the kid's parents being the one that failed him. They were the one that purchased all the gaming set he's got. They failed to regulate what he plays. I wouldn't do that to my kid.
It pained we a lot when I lots my first online (Facebook) to them and vowed never to let that happen to me again. Once it's a link sent to me, I report the account immediately.
The appearance of Wraiths of Mörhogg in Teen Wolf linking in The Wild Hunt just like they did in The Witcher was the turning point for me in the movie.
That's the only challenge with the tournaments they have to offer. But I would say, instead of not playing any, you can join any of them and kill time with it while you wait for a better paying one to come up.
Some people are too lazy to want to learn and it's why they don't develop well in their gaming. When you learn the basis, the further steps are made easy.
I had that same result when I wanted to get the game on my smartphone after playing it some years ago but never got it. It was the Apk file I got later and it plays just fine.
They feel like it's within their right to take gamers for a fool and play mind games with us by doing so. It's not all of us that falls for that trick.
This is always how it's going to be with some games. Everything is all about how a particular reviewer felt about the game and pours out his or her feelings.
