Beyond the Game - Into the mind of the professional Warcraft player

1. I’ve seen this documentary yesterday on Dutch television, and I have to say: It’s great! The documentary follows Sky and Grubby about Warcraft and their lives. You see the players join tournaments and do normal things. There where some boring (don’t know if that’s the good word?) parts, like where Sky’s girlfriend is talking about their life, but overall it’s a great documentary! Jos de Putter should make more of this documentaries.

2. I’d have to say I liked the documentary overall. Some parts were a bit boring indeed, long shots of certain things that didn’t seem to make much impression or weren’t very informative. Maybe it could have been edited to a smaller film. Furthermore I missed some things around this all, what about the school situation of Sky and Manuel, why did they start, and how much of it boils down to talent or training?

   So anyway, it was nice to watch, but it could have been better.

6. I liked it in a way. As an ex-competative gamer I enjoyed this ‘coming out’ to the world with this new sport. However some parts kinda bothered me.

   There were alot of long shots with some sort of ‘emptyness’, as if competative gaming as a whole was still the playground for anti-social people. Ofcourse, there is that side aswell, but if you’re trying to give a glimpse of this world, it might be best to show the better side, or both sides. Also, I kind of missed the excitement that this sport brings, it all felt so quiet and lonely. However, i’ve felt that with more HUMAN documentaries.

   Also, but maybe thats just because I used to be in to this world, I woul’ve liked to see more of the practicing, explaining what the game is about (in basics), price money, salary, multigaming organisations (who essentially are making this ‘big’), etc..

   I’m not saying it was a bad documentary, even though it might sound like that I guess my view on the eSports was not what I felt was broadcasted through this film.
