Cool renderings for the planned “city of videogames and e-sport” that’s being developed in saudi arabia.

I just don’t see people willingly moving to the desert
Who is going to tell him that it will fail . Like did you even watched edgerunners ?
Cool until you realise they hate women.
aren´t video games haram?
Burn it to the ground.
*Lawrence of Arabia theme plays as I boot up Battlefield
No thanks. I don’t want to go to slave land, where if my wife says something to a man we could be imprisoned or killed. These cunts are trying everything they can to wash their shitty reputation, and I don’t think we should be letting them.
waste of a amazing looking place to build it in Saudi Arabia.
If only it weren’t in that place…
very cyberpunk to build something in a land of corruption and oil
Disgusting country
You can’t be the ‘City of Video Games’ if weed is illegal. It’s like a desert being called the ‘City of Water’, it doesn’t make any sense.
Imagine the smell
Yeah.. what a LOVELY place this is…

If you like public executions, slave labor, no women’s rights, corruption and tyranny. TRULY the place of videogames.
I can’t think of a lamer place to play videogames. Can’t even smoke a bowl there, in addition to the whole slavery and woman-beating thing.
Fuck them and anyone that plays there
While cool looking at think we all know how those mega projects go. Way over budget and way too late in scheduling. And it doesn’t help most events held in the region and investors are only interested in NFT games which themselves are already dead from launch.
It would be cool if it were in a country that didn’t totally fucking suck.
Man Seoul changed it used to be all green and shit
Cool pictures and nice post but fuck Saudi Arabia fr.
Fuckers build their cities on the blood of modern slaves and are repressive and intolerant.
Everyone here is stalking about eh women hate in Saudi but no one is mention the ACTUAL SLAVERY they still do there.
Looks like a shitty place to be in for more than a couple days, just noise, rgb lights and ugly buildings
I hate that it looks cool as fuck
It may look cool but you’ll never catch me bringing my wife there, they’ve got some backwards beliefs
Luv me distopia
You had me until *Saudi Arabia*
Not pictured is the slave labor, morality police, and public executions.
Shining spot lights directly into the eyes of an audience trying to look at the screens is a bold concept
Sportswashing has worked fairly well for the saudis, so gaming is next.
ewwww in Saudi though i’ll pass thanks
Okay but then you’d have to go to Saudi Arabia… no thanks
Interesting, how do they reconcile the western culture and sexuality of video games with their own Islamic theocratic state?
the best games the best
Hey I mean using slave labor to build a metropolitan neon behemoth in a country with little personal freedom IS pretty cyberpunk!
you do know that cyberpunk by definition isn’t “cool”
right.
city of being enslaved for breathing
Do they import the water for the water cooling system?
well, saudi arabia does indeed fit the dystopia part of cyberpunk
