Gaming Companies Claim Inclusivity, But Exclude African Players

Her scarlet red hair and matching eyeshadow do a great job of contrasting her outfit and making her face become the focal point of the entire thing. You better hope that you're not her target because you don't stand Apexlegendsfans.com a cha

Just like with the Off The Record skin discussed in the last entry, the Bootlegger skin has a sister skin that's pretty much a palette swap. This one also happens to be the variant that places an emphasis on red, black, and white as its color focus. This skin makes Loba look very dapper and fits into the aesthetic theme of the entire season. People will often use the phrase "dressed to kill" and Loba is communicating every bit of it with this outfit. It could also be mistaken as someone's created character in Red Dead Onli

"You don't really focus on trying to get recognized. You really just focus on your craft and focus on growing your own platform and your own brand," he says. "I always tell people by the time a team is ready to pick you up, you don't necessarily need the team anymo

The Evolved Flow skin for the Peacekeeper is appealing in a very unappealing way. As a skin, it's a little messy and chaotic, but for some reason, it works on the Peacekeeper. This is likely due to the shape of the shotgun and helps the design feel more like a gradient and less like a mashing of two separate desi

Some may scoff at this entry as both the skin and weapon seem to not be befitting of this list at first glance. The Hemlok has come into favor in the Season 5 meta, so it belongs on this list in some capacity. As for the skin, it's a tougher sell. Is it easy on the eyes and heavily desired? No, not really. It does however feature an organic looking design that makes it look unique and also plays into the lore of the franchise as a whole. With all of that considered it seems that the #7 spot made all too much se

Apex Legends is currently making its way through Season 5, and as with all of its previous seasons, there are plenty of cosmetics to acquire. Some of them are for legends, while many others are meant to spice up the look of the weapons you've already been using for well over a year in Respawn 's hit free-to-play game. With that many new skins in the game, it can be hard figuring out which ones are the best of the bunch. Luckily this article will hopefully do exactly that for you. Let's now look at the 10 best weapon skins in Season 5 of Apex Legen

The lack of servers creates a vicious cycle. Publishers don't have African servers because they think there aren't enough players, but without servers, how is the player base expected to grow? The impact of this policy has had a truly detrimental effect on the African gaming community. Many games have "World" Cups or "World" Championships, and it's evident that Africa isn't part of their "World." No matter how good African players are, there's no way of getting involved in many of the sanctioned leagues without moving to another contin

The health of the scene is also contingent upon the creators who support it — many of whom are gunning for an opportunity to represent an organization like SoaR. But signing with an organization isn’t always as simple as being a strong player, though that certainly doesn’t hurt. Dazs points to iiTzTimmy as an exam

Puns are an interesting slice of comedy as they happen to be very divisive. Some people love puns, and others hate them. The Kraber's Season 5 skin is called Magma Might, which for Pokémon fans feels like a play on the electric magnet Pokémon's name, Magnemite. Magma Might is about what you'd expect from a skin with that name as it looks like images of magma pools grafted onto the weapon like a weird form of wallpaper. In the meta the Kraber is currently a Top 5 weapon, so you may be seeing a lot of Magma Might in your fut

Big names in gaming like Apex Legends , FIFA , Fortnite , League of Legends , Valorant , Rainbow Six Siege , and more have a worldwide following with servers everywhere except Africa. As an African gamer, I find it insulting and hypocritical that these companies force us to read Black Lives Matter messages every time we start a game, yet most black people aren't allowed to get the best experience from

However, Fortnite isn't for everyone and a battle pass may not be the determining factor for playing the game. The challenges have gotten easier with every new season, so unlocking a tier 100 skin variant doesn't feel as prestigious as it once did. However, if players are looking for the most bang for their buck, Fortnite's battle pass is the route to

Apex Legends is currently in Season 5 and with each new season, players are provided with plenty of new items they can acquire by purchasing the battle pass and leveling it up. Season 5 also happened to come with the addition of a new legend into Respawn 's arena, Loba. She happened to be the daughter of the man who Revenant murdered in his introduction, so their dynamic is pretty interesting in the game. What are the best new skins in Season 5 you may ask? Let's now look at and rank the 10 best legend skins in Season 5 of Apex Legen
