Your favorite Twitch streamers?
I did some searching and haven't found a thread on this younger than 2 years, so I thought I'd make a post!
Personally, I don't watch twitch very much. I have had a hard time getting into it, even over YEARS of trying. I love the idea of it, so I'm sure I'm just having a hard time finding what's right for me. I'd love your suggestions!
Some of the things I have run into that have me turning off Twitch (behind a spoiler if you're not in the mood to read my venting lol):
-
!Streamers that do a lot of "Live" or "Just Chatting" content. I know some people like this, but it is not my cup of tea. Once in a while is fine, but too much and I get bored.!<
-
!VERY FREQUENT noises and interruptions with things like bot voices reading off comments and such. It can get very distracting. This is fine and even fun if it is occasional, but some streamers lean very heavy on this and it is constant.!<
-
!Streams that are purposefully meant to be sexy. No hate if this is your thing! And no hate to these streamers, it's all entertainment to me. It's just also not what I want to watch, personally. Examples of this (if you don't know what I'm talking about) are bikini streams, ladies in super short shorts with their bare feet kicked up in front of the camera, vtubers with bouncing boobs out to Pluto, etc. Not here to shame but some streamers do have an... angle they are playing, and it's just not the content I'm personally looking for.!<
-
!Streamers that are mean to their teammates the whole time. I am shocked how often I come across this, especially in a lot of FPS communities. It's always done as a joke but you can tell that streamer just doesn't like the other person and wants to be mean. I don't want to watch that.!<
-
!Really high pitched or forcefully cutesy voices. I find this often in the cozy game streams. Also personal preference, but they give me a headache.!<
-
!Gacha, sports, and gambling content is not for me.!<
-
!Toxic and abusive communities that really just are mean to the streamer the whole time, basically.!<
Some things I LIKE in Twitch that I am looking for:
- Playing a game the streamer actually enjoys and has a lot of time in, or maybe trying something new. Basically, what you'd expect from a Twitch streamer.
- Niche gaming content like heavily modded games, speed runs, challenges, retro games, etc.
- Chill community, and the streamer has a good relationship with them.
- I tend to prefer streamers that are relaxed but have a good sense of humor, too.
Does anyone have any recommendations for streamers? I am open to all genres.
