I still stream, but I don’t usually stream when I know it will not be good…like last night’s Paladins. ANd, since I still play a lot of COD…nobody really sees it anyway.
Now that summer is almost over I’ll be back to streaming on a more consistent basis - especially when our new fiber service starts up and I have a 20 mbps upload to upload in true HD.
Nah it’s not completely an age thing. There are 60+ year olds that stream and watch streams. I like to watch them while I work, but I am very picky about who I watch. If they aren’t streaming then I am not watching.
I think I am into watching streams because it is something that I have been interested in before twitch was even a thing. I have always had the equipment to record or stream. I still have my first capture card that only uses RCA connectors. Back then it was montages and machinima. Streaming is just the evolution from that.
For me, it’s a way to experience a game without buying it or getting pissed at the tougher levels. I did the same before the internet. going to friend’s houses to watch them play a game while I wait my turn or something.
I know this is an old thread but maybe a bump is what it needs for newer people. I still stream though not regularly at all as I am lucky to have enough time to even play games right now but when I do it’s sometimes on Twitch and sometimes on Mixer depending on how I am feeling. I will eventually settle and commit, maybe Right now I am in a holding pattern as I have hired a guy I know to do some graphic design work for my channels
