Why Among Us is Blowing Up



Though it was released 2 years ago, Among Us only recently rose to prominence on Twitch, and quickly became the best selling game through Steam once streamers picked it up. But why did it blow up so much?

  1. I personally don’t think fall guys has fallen off. And I wouldn’t say among us took over the place of fall guys but among us did take the spotlight momentarily. But when season 2 drops it’s back on fall guys and that proves why fall guys hasn’t fell off. Ppl still get on and play with friends after a long day, like I just did, 5 minutes ago.

  2. It's actually crazy where this channel has gone in the last couple years. I remember watching Jake Lucky or CS:GO News and I remember when he first started uploading on Esports Talk and I was kinda confused on why he would leave a bigger channel for something like this. Boy was I wrong. I have nothing but love for Jake, Nick, and everyone else who has brought this channel to what it is today, because although I may not agree sometimes or enjoy everything that you guys talk about, like fortnite which is a terrible game imo although it's done so much for esports as a whole, I still think that what you guys have built is amazing and although some may disagree like KILLER KEEMSTAR I think that you guys are doing some great things. Keep it up. Keep drinkin ya WAHH and ya CAHH and I hope to see another video soon.

  3. I’m over this game already. I can’t even watch streams anymore if they are playing it. It was fun for a little while but it’s every game is very repetitive. It will fall off soon unless they make it different somehow.

  4. Devs are suffering from success!
    They're working very hard to manage servers for these shit ton of players.
    It's not easy you know. "Among Us 2" is gonna release next year or later at some point I think.

  6. I can't even imagine what has been going through the developer's minds in the last few months alone. I swear, in what seems like literally overnight, this game just exploded everywhere. I can't go anywhere, gaming news, social media, YT, etc, without seeing something about Among Us. I admit, I bought the game for 5 bucks after watching some YT vids and streams and I have to say, while the hilarity I've witnessed on videos hasn't quite ensued yet, the game has been exceedingly fun the few times I've played.

    My biggest issue with the approx 8 hours I've played so far, 6 of which were with friends and friends of friends is that in just about every game, only myself and about 3 other players were outspoken and vocal. The other 5 or 6 players were extremely quiet and not vocal at all. One of which didn't even have a mic and had to type everything (who doesn't have access to a mic nowadays??). That definitely kept the fun level from reaching it's potential but overall, was still fairly entertaining. So, I feel as if I've already gotten my 5 bucks worth out of the game and will likely see more play when people can set aside a few hours to goof around.

  7. I hope this game survives for a long time. I personally didn't really like fall guys after a week. I thought it was too repetitive and frustrating. At some points, really really boring to play even with a squad

  8. This game isn't as fun as it used to be just saying back 2018-2019 it was about logic and brain cells. 2020 comes along and says we're going to get rid of that and just make it a game of guessing. Like 2020 all the new players just say who it they think it is or calling someone sus for no reason and everyone else just votes u off and 90% ur likely a crewmate.
