When I was a teenager I played World of Warcraft for 5 years. During that time we did "raids" where 40 people have to pay attention and communicate, sometimes for longer than 8 hours, with people from around the globe.
If teenagers can do it, adults can do it. Period. And if they can't, skill issue I guess.

- plorkyeran 1y agoMostly because it’s a lot of fun to get in one room and play together. They’ve pretty consistently said that they’re not even sure that it’s a net benefit for winning.
- cwbriscoe 1y agoEvery recent RWF, including the one a couple of weeks ago, they have at least a few people who are still remote.
