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.
-
Most people dont watch for good game play, they watch to be entertained. Big difference.
-
They are so popular because they literally alnost streamed the game every single day since it came out so if people stumbled across destiny on twitch they would most likely come across the two who had a decent veiwership already from borderlands. And I really dont think they are entertaining at all
-
They're bungies damage control
-
I find goth pretty entertaining. Seems like a decent person as well
-
Other then giggle monster do any of the others even do pve? And I'd have to say there popular for a couple reasons sell atleast goth. He's entertaining ,he gas a good stream and a decent following in his chat. It's not just broo,yo, let's go,what perks and what sensitivity are you using. He's also knowledgeable on video games in general and knows what he's talking about outside of just destiny.

Edited by SweetZombieJesus: 3/10/2016 2:53:07 PMWell I don't watch any of them, but I have browsed Twitch and most of those you mention look like they're in a dank basement where weirdos collect weirdo things... Goth and Bro are annoying as -blam!-, but at least their broadcast are clean. Sure you're watching for the game, but something about a dude just sitting in his sweats in a gaming chair with a single incandescent bulb swaying overhead and a grainy web cam makes me shudder...
-
They're nothing and I love versing these streamers in PvP, Banner and Trials.
-
Because this community is full of children
-
Well... For one, WYL is a total douche and attracts people just like him.
-
I watch at work lol
-
Goth I actually find interesting idk why
-
To me twitch should of never happened it's a waste of time. Players watch streams to watch games they don't want to play. If streamers had a real job than I would respect them. I give Walmart greeters more respect than nerdy streamers. :/
-
Who??
-
Because fgt.
-
I just don't understand why people give streamers money. I was watching one today where a woman received $100 out of nowhere. Why? Lmao People complain about the price of games/DLC but throw money at people who play the same game you'll be playing later tonight.
-
Ew wish is not funny nor entertaining.
-
Everybody you just mentioned besides triple is pretty narcissistic. Broman and Gothalion aren't really that way.
-
Because people enjoy watching older men who don't have thumbs act like 10 year olds more
-
-
It's all 'bout that positive vibes...
-
Just because they are not nearly the best at games, doesn't mean they are not fun to watch. They have spent a lot of time and effort on their channels!
-
kraftyy is actually a pretty popular streamer now. he has grown a lot since the drop of taken King and has on average (when I see him online) 2,000 people watching
-
They are fun to watch. They are always happy and make Jokes and aren't super serious or anything. That's why.
-
I don't watch a whole lot of streaming.. but ive caught a little bit from both of them... and they both remind me of radio shock jocks... which normally don't bother me... but they seem rather crass to me... I think LaB is prolly my favorite... they can be a lil immature at times but for the most part.. they are chill and fun... super good stream.. love em...
-
When i watch a streamer or youtuber, i watch them for their personality. Thats why i like mr fruit and mesa sean. I dont care that theyre not MLG sweaty 320s who play destiny 17 hours a day. Theyre funny. Thats what matters.

Edited by OkayChain: 3/10/2016 5:37:53 PMi love gothalian and broman they are the best streamers in the whole world, they love their viewers so much and never ignores them at all, they never speed run through a game so that they can get to the end game content in two days of release, just to find out that they were disappointed with not enough content because nothing can ever please gamers
