Sorry if there's already a thread for this but I couldn't find one!
Surely other people on her have heard/watch people on Twitch?
Twitch is a platform/website where people can watch others play video games live online and interact with them in real time chat!
Anyone else actually tune in to Twitch.tv or am I the only one on these forums? :D
Also sorry if this is in the wrong place, honestly never knew where to put it!

I assume the vast majority of people who post in the games section know about twitch, I watch CS GO and Dota tournaments over there, and a few streamers too.
I love Emre Can more than both of my children. Fact

Exclusively for CSGO tournaments, some other odd streams here and there.

DrDisrespect can be a laugh, pure embodiment of a character and good production values to go with it. He's like a 90's wrestler :D

Good example here, watch it all ;D

My mate watches twitch more than he actually games these days. I can see the attraction for fetish interests ;D but not sure it's something I could watch all the time.

That said I recall watching some daft Flibbertigibbet playing Until Dawn on PS4. It was fucking hilarious, screaming her head oaf at every little noise then jumping out of her skin every time something actually happened. Funny stuff!

Would prefer to just game...

I never used to understand it but I've been watching people play PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds a fair bit lately, trying to get some idea of how to improve.

I watch Twitch alot when I'm working (well, technically I just listen) and it helps.

I haven't done it so much recently, I mainly watch Destiny streamers but Destiny is on it's arse at the moment waiting for D2.

I stream on Twitch when I'm playing too, not for viewers and revenue, rather so I can recorded footage of everything I did in case I did something 1,000,000 to 1 and I have the footage!

Watching games can be really fun in a way that's hard to describe.

The "IRL" category though? Someone's gonna have to explain the appeal of that to me. Do people genuinely like spending their free time staring at girls in gaming chairs?

I've just started streaming again for a bit of fun on evenings/weekends, even if it's just me streaming with a few of my mates watching it's quite fun! Kinda easy now too with the built in apps on the Xbox and PS!

Also, I never realised that there was an actual gaming section, any chance I can get a mod to move this thread to that section?

Mr_Raptor_Turtle
All kinds to be honest bud, done a few FIFA streams but I kinda do a few other types of games like: The Evul Within, State of Decay, Tell Tales The Walking Dead and other stuff, hard to find an audience and still need to scrape together a bit of money together to afford an actual streaming PC, currently using the Xbox twitch app to stream which isn't the best
