While I do think that I am still far at some players that already reached international level, I am quite satisfied with my progress given that I only do this as a hobby and not as my main source of income. Still, however, this kind of opportunity is definitely a blessing that I would forever cherish.

This varies between countries as to what the players can turn into profits or not. In the US there are these gaming groups which are paid well because of their performance and they are taking part in every tournament out there, I am sure you have heard of such groups or seen them online.

I think we can all agree on the fact that turning a passion to a profession also needs the right circumstance, otherwise it just remains a small time hobby.

Game/music/movie/even adult content reviewers do publish their blogs, if possible videos on youtube and all make a decent money out of. Of course that needs to grow and dedication, without these two traits, nothing can be achieved.

I think for someone who aims to turn his passion into profits, that is still quite a lot of working. You are not doing it only for yourself but this time the whole crowd is already involved, so yes, you need a lot of dedication and patience for you to make it work and grow. If you lack that, your hobby will always be a hobby, nothing more than that.

However, there’s nothing wrong if you chose to remain it as a hobby, the fact that you find joy and satisfaction from it, that’s what matters the most. Also, there wouldn’t be any pressure even if it doesn’t works, that’s another advantage of it.
