Something I’ve been wondering about lately — how did gaming become so massive in India so quickly? A friend of mine moved to Bangalore for work last year, and when we were talking on Discord he told me that almost everyone in his office plays some kind of mobile game during lunch breaks. I didn’t realize the scale until he sent me this article: https://nenow.in/article/indias-gaming-economy.html. It talks about how mobile phones, cheap data plans, and simple payment systems made gaming accessible to millions of people. Apparently India even leads the world in mobile game downloads now, which honestly surprised me.

I’m just passing through this thread and it’s actually interesting to read. I don’t follow the gaming industry closely, but I’ve noticed a similar pattern in other tech areas too. When smartphones and affordable internet reach more people, entire new communities start forming online. Whether it’s gaming, streaming, or content creation, things can scale really quickly once the tools become accessible.
