It's about buying more jpegs. And maybe eventually making a CGI movie.

He's just desperate for SC to be the game that makes him a big name streamer. If you're one of the only streamers doing something when a game first becomes popular, that's pretty much the main way of becoming a pro streamer.

Unfortunately for him he's picked a lovely game that nobody wants to watch and that'll never get any better. If he swaps to overwatch or something, he'll just be streamer #1523 with next to zero viewers. At least he might have some fun though!

What I wouldn't give to get a glimpse into this fruitcake's internal world.

It's 1999 and he goes to the theatre to see the Wing Commander movie. At the candy counter he orders some skittles and a large Coke. After being handed a single tic-tac and a thimble of water he happily sits down in his seat. The lights dim, and immediately go up, and he happily goes on his way.

He goes to the lot to buy a new Range Rover. One signed contract and high-interest loan later and he's proudly squeaking away on a rusty tricycle.

His evening dalliance with a prostitute: Money changes hands, then she feigns a headache and with a shrug he walks off, whistling a happy tune.

Because at least he's not one of those filthy subhuman value demanders.

I was listening and reading the chat and he's basically trapped. When he tries playing any other games they bitch at him and his viewership drops. On the other hand no one new is coming to the stream, and CIG isn't releasing any content so he's trapped repeating the same thing he - in his words - "can do with his eyes closed by now".

Makes me wonder what's in it for the viewers. Haven't they also seen everything a billion times over by now? They can't be getting anything new either. And who are they? Why would backers watch the same thing on repeat that they could get bored with themselves? I can kind of get it with games like E:D, where there are a ton of things to see and do, or with your average arena FPS, where something stupid happens every match, or hell, even something single-player like Dishonoured or Hitman or KSP — something with a slight (or not-so-slight) sandbox slant, where there are a whole bunch of approaches to playing, and you might just want to see how others do it. But what's in it for the plaintiffs?! The game has no variety since it is almost completely devoid of mechanics to mix things up.

A lot of them probably enjoy watching him get mad.

It accounts for a huge portion of Twitch viewership. Lots of streamers intentionally ham up their reactions to draw in the schadenfreude demographic.

With a cult base like SC's though I'm sure a lot of WTF's viewers are there for the "community" and get upset when he's not playing SC because he's meant to be proselytizing.

A few days ago he mentioned he had nearly 1200 subscribers ("Giveaway at 1200" or something?) , so I guess that means he's pulling in around $3,000 a month. ($4.99 X 1200 * 0.5 - the 0.5 is to reduce it by the standard percentage cut twitch gives)

Most of those subscribers are there for SC, so he's in the horrible position of having to continue to torture himself onscreen or see a dramatic drop in revenue. No wonder he's moody all the time. :kimchi:

Hello friends! I'd like to invite you to what is sure to be the hottest new destination on Twitch.

It'll have a chat-bot that spams affiliate links, ability to request songs from YouTube, a "dangerous"-sounding name, a subscription option that offers viewers absolutely nothing of value, a regular schedule of raffles for jpgs, and an obnoxious gif that takes up the entire screen for two minutes anytime someone donates or subscribes.

Content will be me snapping a mousetrap shut on my dick every fifteen minutes while I complain that there's nothing new in mousetrap development yet, but it's coming soon, you'll see, it'll be the most amazing mousetrap-on-dick technology you've ever dreamed of. You'll want to spend your entire life snapping this mousetrap onto your dick, then you'll be sorry when you didn't invest $3000 or more into it at the very start of development*.

*development start date is subject to change based on how pissed off I am at snapping a mousetrap onto my dick that particular day

e: and yes, I'd say the same if it were thousands of trumpers getting permabanned over a dumb bet.

The Trumpers toxxed for regular bans. Then the DnD mod upgraded it to permaban toxxes a little bit before the election.

Which makes it funny that when hillary lost the DnD mod then tried to find a way for hillary toxxers to weasel out of it.
