PUBG Ban : Top 5 reasons why gamers feel PUBG cannot be replaced

1:- Accessibility

PUBG Mobile is a game that can run almost on any smartphone, even on a low end smart phone the game can run as smoothly as a flagship phone. The game is developed on Unreal Engine 4 has graphic setting to match your phone and can run on minimum settings, in this bare bone setting the game gives you enough visual graphic intel to play the game to your maximum potential and sharpen your skills. The game can also be set to Ultra HD if your device can support it, this feels like a whole different game with the amount of detail you can see.

2:- Top level players

This is the only game so far on which the Indian players have managed to shine. The game has seen some of the best players in the world who are from India. Indian teams like TSM and Orange Rock esports were even confident of winning this year’s World Championship. Yes this does have to do mainly with the fact that since it’s so easily available players could get into it at a very young age which led to the emergence of so many young talented players. This grass root method should come into action in other games as well for the players to actually become T1 or world class.

3:- Gameplay

The game gameplay was a standalone, even other battle royale games such as Free Fire and COD Mobile are very different. PUBG players find that some of the game mechanics of PUBG are not to be found in any of its alternatives. This can mainly be attributed to difference in development platforms, PUBG Mobile is on Unreal Engine 4 while COD Mobile is Unity engine.

4:-  Player salaries

PUBG was unique when it came to player salaries as well. With no other game could organizations and team owners pay their players high salaries. We can reason that this was because the players were performing at that level and winning parts of massive prize pools.

5:-  Massive Tournaments

PUBG tournaments in India have had the highest prize pools ever seen in Indian esports. The prize pools of bigger tournaments would start at around 5 lakhs and even go up to 50lakhs, this developed a sustainable landscape around the game. Even the smaller tournaments the prize pool was about a lakh. We saw this distribution where the top level teams would not play in tournaments below a certain prize pool, which was left out to the smaller tire2 teams, this created a healthy environment for even semi-pro players to make a living off the game.
