I just subscribed to my first twitch stream and I immediately regret it. The guy is cool and he's incredibly good at the game so I don't really mind supporting him, but I could still watch him for free.

you get to make the stream shittier by forcing him to interrupt it to say your dumb name

i've never really been into watching streams but i stopped completely when people started doing that

I was watching MANvsGAME the other night while he was playing Bloodborne and I was thinking this same thing. Every time he was in an interesting fight, or when he was about to say something interesting somebody would donate or subscribe and it would interrupt everything. Tbh though the dude probably made more in one night then I make in a month.

don't worry, by 2024 adblock is illegal and most twitch streams are back to being supported by ads much like a tv show is.

Twitch is subscription based. There aren't really any ads. Some streamers have small advertisements at the bottom of their screen, but they know the real money comes from the viewers.

What the gently caress is wrong with you people. It's as if some entrepreneur found an untapped market of lonely, no friend gamers with money to burn ... oh wait.
