    If you're getting them as recommended, then I suspect: 1) you have NO history at all the site can draw from and its throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks 2) you actually do watch channels in that vein, or visit them for "research", and are just lying to yourself I just went to my screen...

    If ad revenue goes into the toilet because of the change, I suspect the category won't be as populated as you think

    The Astronomy Thread

    During the animation section of the proposed mission outline, one thing that caught my eye was the wheels and the system they have in place to what looks like help prevent it from getting stuck in sand? Not sure if Spirit and Opportunity had that, but since this mission looks like it was...

    Nice try, none of my posts are against that. The closest post on the matter was when someone said Twitch should have separate categories and I indicated they already did and also noted your recommendations are based on what streams you watched usually, so unless you were going to titty hottub...

    Directly, I doubt it. I strongly suspect he was given the classic Roman option of "fall on your own sword, or we'll do it for you". I do suspect that people higher up weren't satisfied with the pace of development and/or the direction it was taking. Like was pointed out, they tried the single...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The thing that makes me laugh the most is when someone like Asmon is watching the FF trailer and sees a cat girl (who is basically human, but has cat ears instead of regular ears) and goes "ugh, furries!" and his whole chat agrees, but half the races in WoW look like they could fucking cameo on...

    There's quite a few steps involved with finishing the expedition. 5 phases and took me around an hour to do the first one partially (still need to farm enough shit to be able to warp to the first point)

    This is what they should have done from the start. Separate category so the pearl clutchers (viewers or advertisers) can avoid it

    First thing, preorder the new xpac. You get an earring that gives bonus xp gains until 80 Potd is unlocked during ARR. south shroud? It’s that wood log fort place. There is a quest to unlock potd. Heaven on high is unlocked in ruby sea at the pirate base next to the big jenga looking tower...

    Alphi was a little shit in ARR, but he improves ALOT. He probably has the most character development of the Scions

    They probably went through arbitration, settled, and had to sign NDAs. If he had gotten nothing out of it, I doubt he would have been quiet on the matter.

    Fallout 76

    Keybinds are fairly basic. I just changed my pipboy hotkey to avoid accidently opening it in combat. Special points stop gaining at level 50. Every 50 levels there after, you unlock a legendary perk card slot until you reach the max slots of 6. Scrapping unneeded perk cards gives you points...

    On a side note, rumor mill is stating the reason Doc got banned was because he misrepresented offers from Mixer in order to boost what Twitch signed him for. Then when Mixer shutdown, this got exposed and why he was banned shortly thereafter

    I do agree. JesseCox had shit on the game for years, then finally slogged through ARR and the game’s story had him by the end of that and now he is the games biggest cheerleader it is rough because the pacing feels off and there is a lot of fluff to be sure. They did trim a lot of post ARR...

    It’s part of the reason you see so many YouTube videos sponsored by X, or they have Patreon. YouTube has been slicing back as revenue shares and swinging around demonetization like a cudgel for various reasons for years

    It’s an extreme example, but sets a bad precedent. Twitch is basically saying “for reasons, we are still going to profit off you and your new share is 0”

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The ARR story is central to the plot of the entire game, though. Skipping that would be like skipping the first season of a show, then the final seasons make all sorts of call backs and you missed the context. It’s tedious at parts, but vastly improved by 2.4 (the whole crystal brave thing...

    There are two possible reasons: 1) Twitch has heard rumblings and pre-emptively nuked ads to avoid larger headaches 2) Advertisers are doing the same shit credit card companies do and pulling a prude (they only stow the prude if the client is large enough) Part of me wonders if they went after...

    Ya, takeaway from Ice was that fitting in doesn't mean you have to be the same (modded), just that you can display qualities that other people can respect or appreciate. The unmodded brother will never be able to compete on a physical level, but he showed the other people that he had balls and...

    Emergent gameplay you described is basically accidental mechanics due to code. That is like saying exploiting to make dupes is emergent gameplay because the developers cant figure out how to fix it.

    Cross server grouping is basically a way to avoid server consolidation in an obvious sense and avoid “dead servers”. It is a lesser evil than “sorry your home server isn’t sustainable, we’re merging you and 3 other servers into this other server and now you play on that server”

    Even EQ1 got that shit wrong because of penalties for grouping on top of racial and class penalties End of the day, people will gravitate towards the easiest path. If grouping is easiest, people will group. But in turn, you need to make grouping easy. If you make grouping the only realistic...

    the problem is the only way you can force that is to add adversity uninstanced content Forced grouping to progress your character Game mechanics that heavily discourage solo activities While some of you might think that sounds like the perfect MMO, virtually every MMO in the past decade that...

    Twitch makes more from ads than streamers, but ads do make up a healthy chunk of streamer revenue for people that lacked in the other fund departments.

    Poop sockers are the vocal ones, but I doubt the majority. At the end of the day, these are a business. If you want your business to exclude a large population and only cater to a smaller one, that’s fine, but in turn you cant cry about not making as much money at the same time

    Honestly this just sounds like old men yelling at kids to get off their lawn 1) I am going to guess that younger people are going to be more social in average because they have more free time.

    Even in old school MMO, most times people didn't give a shit about other people once they got to a certain point where they didn't need to worry about that (ie, they get into a stable guild). In EQ1, for the most part the uber guilds didn't give much of a shit about the plebs beyond showing off...
