As I understand chat during a twitch stream, we're supposed to constantly spam pictures of a dog, right?

I post about it every year but I still don't understand why anyone reads twitch chat! I'm not even the type that gets offended at anything but there is just zero value in it and it's literally unreadable cause of the speed and it's a race to the bottom as far as trying to be obnoxious so why bother! Hang in here with us instead! :)

I don't get it either and I also think the emote spamming is awful especially because the Twitch emotes are also all awful.

I will tell you that I watched dark souls runs before I played dark souls, and it definitely did not help me know how to beat the bosses. lmao

The best part (sorta) of beating a Souls boss is thinking they don't have ways to play into their attacks but then learning you can. That's a satisfying click.

I just download the Twitch5 firefox/chrome extension. Works as well as livestreamer, 0 ads, and you can just maximize it. No twittch chat

I probably will do this cause I'm apparently illiterate with anything on the streamlink wiki. I do appreciate everyone giving advice! Less than a minute till it starts!

What tripped me up is you need to install both the base streamlink thing AND the twitch gui. I spent about 10 minutes wondering why just the Twitch gui install wasn't working.

As much as I like Spike and PMG and such, the talky non speedrunny bits are my least favorite part.

I just hooked up a "new" monitor for this (used but very good, needed to replace my poor dying secondary) and I'm glad I did.

I was gonna joke about someone training for the Mega Man X race by just doing a bunch of actual physical training but Caleb probably did that in the past.

If both are installed then you should be able to run the twitch gui and have it work. I'm sorry I can't be much help. I barely know more than you.
