You can assume my age all you want. I have no reason to lie about it. I agree with with most of what you say btw. Just a bit short sighted to assume streamers will come and go. Yeah, most will but some may prevail. Twitch may also come and go and people may not always make money doing so but as long as people are playing games and people want to watch them then there will be streamers. I don't think game streaming as a whole is going anywhere anytime soon and as bandwidth increases across the world it will only get stronger. the top streamers we see now are just the tip of the iceberg as this new technology is still in its infancy. A new generation will come that will likely take it to the next level. Or maybe now, we shall see. Also, I never said history doesn't repeat itself. You are right that the games themselves havent changed much but that is just part of the big picture. The technology around the games has drastically improved since last generation. Streaming out of the console is one, remote play wether it's through the Vita or letting someone else play on your console is a big one, DVR technology to record game clips and screenshots right out of the console is big and love it or hate it, I love snapping TV/Netflix while playing on X1. It's THOSE kinds of things that continue to improve every generation beyond just graphics. I personally think graphics are over rated and cost too much time and resources when it could be spent taking games to new levels rather than just eye candy.
