    For real. It is already recognized as a level 2 Olympic Sport.

    I'm okay with it. There are skills that are physical in ways involving neural connections.

    The more people we get, the more nessesary it becomes to have them live in less space. E-sports help with that freeing up space to grow more food.

    So I feel certain it will happen. And that it will become a major part of sports.

    The main problem will be how to turn it into sports that others will pay to watch ;-)
