I prefer watching people play stuff that they actually enjoy and that won't get them backseated to hell and back by chat. Like I was really looking forward to Hana's Terraria stream a while back but chat was awful and basically ruined the game for her with constant backseating and harassment.

It's difficult for me when the streamer isn't picking up on the game's cues on what to do or where, or trying to force progress by ignoring tutorials and any slight amount of reading. (Thinking about several of the Doom 2016 streams here. Slowly making progress in spite of ignoring everything the game was trying to teach them.) Totally blind plays doesn't work for every game, for anything but the simplest zero-settings games with simple controls, I think it's usually better if the streamer "cheats" and spends half an hour to check controls, video settings, and all that, before starting the stream.

There's also another thing that isn't quite backseating a game, but still ruins the enjoyment of a stream for me. In chat streams, when viewers (especially international viewers who don't understand Japanese) begin either making wrong assumptions about the content of the stream, or grossly mistranslate things, or spam nonsense. In Polka's PC specs stream yesterday, international viewers didn't pick up on what she was presenting and kept posting useless comments. She first presented an ancient PC from 10 years ago, which was effectively her spare, and people thought that was the "poltato PC" (it was not, she made that clear from the start, if they had just stopped spamming and waited for someone to translate). Then she started presenting the current PC specs, and everyone was split between suggesting individual component upgrades or thinking that was the new PC she was buying (useless or wrong, she stream description made it clear she had already ordered an entirely new PC, if they had just stopped spamming and waited for someone to translate).
Or in Polka's long superchat reading stream last Monday, in the back end several viewers just started trying to force memes of even more "pol" puns of English words, totally disregarding the content of the stream. I think that's the kind of thing the "don't have conversations among yourself" rule is meant to cover?

With the large viewerships of 10k+, they should really have someone actively moderate the chat IMO.

kiaras stream today was much better. instead of translating everything she says she picked english or japanese and it was around 70% eng 30% japanese. she also set herself a challenge of not mentioning the rabbit once during the stream, she was worried she came off too much of a fan girl

her personality came out alot more too, she’s def the best at chat interaction. she’s a keyboard smasher, reminded me alot of rushia and towa

The irony in that these two songs were ones I watched today and helped me fall in love with the songs. I did get a giggle out of Korone, Haachama and Coco just bobbing and not singing.

She used to be Haato-sama because of her persona, but wanted something less formal so she lied and said her sister started calling her Haachama to get her fans to use that instead. Then she played that bomb defusing game with Marine where it took off and henceforth became stylized as HAACHAMA!? after Marine used it as a frequent exclamation at Haato's terrible gameplay.
