I don't see why they're bigger than streamers who are actually good at the game like mtashed, Wish You Luck, tripleWRECK, Giggle Monstar, Gamesager, Realkraftyy or WaRbulletpoof. Can someone explain this to me? Why would you watch a streamer even though they're not that strong of a player?
[b]UPDATE[/b]: We even beat Goth 5-2. This proves my point.

Edited by docalvaran: 3/10/2016 6:21:44 AMBecause majority of the 2nd batch of people you just said have too much ego and arrogance, yeah i watch them from time to time but i usually just watch how they play and muting so i don't have to listen to them. Yet for broman and goth i watch and listen because they are fun to watch and listen to. Would you rather watch someone who only talks about how godly he is? Or Someone who actually interacts with the chat and 9/10 positive attitude? Streaming was never who is the best. It's how you interact with your viewers that makes people want to watch you play more and chat with you. Positive attitude attracts people and negative doesn't. P.S. Don't include triple on the good players, he's just a pubstomper that's why he is not playing alot of pvp now since SBMM was implemented. Now maybe he can pubstomp again.

Entertainment. Twitch is watched for entertainment and community. People in chat know and recognise each other, it's part of their daily routine. You can only watch so much of a guy just playing the game and doing call outs, it's boring as hell. Who wants to watch wishyouluck streaming 3v3 n using thorn for 9 hours. Triple complains nonstop, giggle just talks call outs 24/7. Broman doesn't appeal to me, and though I don't sub I do like to listen to goth when I play, and guys like holtzmann and slayerage are fountains of knowledge. I get that people watch to get better themselves, but at the end if the day it's entertainment, just like TV, and the popular streamers are popular for good reason.
-
Because they're politically correct and the only people on the internet are a bunch of liberals.
-
Because Broman and Goth go balls deep for anyone at Bungie...honestly, I don't see how they got worlds first...someone must've gave them tips. Actually, they got both tips...[spoiler]wink wink my opinion tho[/spoiler]
-
Dunno why any of them are
-
It's about the personality of the streamer. Goth makes the stream fun and entertaining
-
Meh, I don't watch them really but at least actually provide somewhat good and creative content, shout out to Moreconsole.
-
Don't know who they are. Just another 2 people out of the 7 Billion + on the planet.
-
Who wants to look at GiggleMonstar or WishYouLluck? Being super ugly is a factor in this surely.. I mean I know Broman isn't a model but he is David Beckham compared to some of those other streamers.. Yuck!!
-
If you don't realize most people suck at video games. They suck so people see themselves in goth and broman. That's why so many people watch. They're the underdogs and most people are the same way. Scrubs. Lol
-
Why does it matter? Its entertainment if they aren't entertaining they won't get views
-
Edited by satisak: 3/10/2016 7:23:07 AMSome of the people you call best are pretty boring to watch. Both broman and gothalion are really good at entertaning. I would prefer to watch somone who talks alot to their viewers instead of just sitting there with their stupid sweats not even talking to chat..not everyone is like this But Some are and thats rlly boring to watch. Also stop fan boying tripleWreck plis
-
Btw, Krafty is entertaining and great at the game ;) not many are
-
They entertain...
-
Some of the people you call best are pretty boring to watch. Both broman and gothalion are really good at entertaning
-
I don't care for either, but I did enjoy watching Gothalion during the HoW reveal stream.
-
Explain to me how it's more interesting to watch others play your game, instead of playing your game yourself. I'm a bit "middle aged + myself" so I don't quite get the "cuckold" concept.
-
Butt buddies???

Edited by Brindle_Badger: 3/10/2016 4:27:38 AMIf I'm going to watch someone do stuff on a screen It's sure as shit not going to be two middle aged jackasses playing destiny
-
They're grown men with actual families and are generally just cool to hang out with rather then people who just scream obscenities every time they die.
-
Yea one time goth was talking about orally pleasuring your partner and how it a necessity for like 30 mins
-
Because half of it comes from their personality and all the shit they do. If you watch most of the sweaty streamers, they're just awkward
-
Because they're not elitists.
-
The best streamers are entertaining and are more broadcaster than video game streamer. Also, the best streamers are not streaming Destiny. The biggest streamer that has consistently been in the destiny directory is Gothalian and he seems to have moved on at least for now. Ducksauce was streaming Destiny for a bit. That guy is funny af. But honestly I'd rather watch him play h1z1.
-
They do casual play most of the time and twitch is relaxing and I guess they are calm non sweaty people
-
Same reason mr fruit has a YouTube follower count higher then all the pvp players combined... because people enjoy watching him more.
