Around the World in 80 Games

Recently I have been told that whenever I use my microphone that is attached to my headset, I am too quiet. My friends and teammates are unable to hear me, especially in those crucial times where information has to be told to everyone. A microphone is as important as the audio that goes through them. Currently, I have a wireless headset with superb audio quality, and wireless, so I am able to use it more conveniently, but as I said, the mic is not as good. Now I am tasked with purchasing a new headset. When comparing the two, I have to analyze whether I still prefer the wireless one with a little upgrade on the mic or a wired one with possibly worse audio quality but with a well-designed microphone. The first product I have in mind is the Wireless HyperX Cloud III.  This headset has an okay mic attached to it, good battery life, and it is wireless, meaning the convenience is still here. I am able to walk around my room, not get tangled up with the wires, and still have the ability ...

This post is for the aspiring gamers that might feel like they have hit a wall or just have the feeling of giving up. You are not just "playing games." You are using games to build your discipline, focus, and using your passion to accomplish something. I have been in those similar situations where I feel like I have wasted my time. Staying up late, frustrating losses, and even doubt. With grinding comes hardship, and moments like this where it seems like no one gets it, or it feels impossible.

Gaming has taken me around the world, literally. Because when you overcome those doubtful thoughts, gaming can open up doors for you—scholarships, potential opportunities for conten...

Some travelers may have to face obstacles when trying to travel to another country. What I mean by the previous sentence is that not everyone is automatically welcome to go to another country; they would first have to get approved, in most cases in the form of a visa. A visa is essentially permission from a country to enter, stay, or work there for a specific period. Depending on your nationality and destination, you might need a tourist visa, a business visa, or any visa that states the exact reason you are going to a country for. Some visas are easy to get on arrival, but others require endless paperwork, embassy appointments, and weeks (or months) of waiting. Does it really take that long? Many countries are opting to go for an e-visa system, which I think matches up with the modern world, but some places still use physical papers and transport them by post to be reviewed physically, which further extends the time it takes to get it approved. The thing I have an issue with the most ...
