Do you even need to ask this question? Since when has talent and skill ever eclipsed the flashy and talentless? How do you think Micheal bay keeps making movies and Taylor Swift keeps making number 1 hits?

  • [quote]How do you think Micheal bay keeps making movies and Taylor Swift keeps making number 1 hits?[/quote]I hate both with a passion. I strongly believe the most skilled people in their field, regardless of their personality, are who should succeed the most.

  • I've seen you reply to a lot of posts , and you seem to think that Broman and Goth shouldn't be so successful because they aren't gods at that game . I you feel as if better players should be more popular on twitch . You're wrong , though , because the whole point of twitch is undeniably entertainment. That's a thing that Broman and Goth excel at, so they are popular. If you think players who are popular should be good, you misunderstand twitch .

  • [quote], you misunderstand twitch[/quote]It's not that I misundeerstand twitch, it's that the casual majority doesn't understand how skill is more important than anything.

  • I'm just going to roll our two conversations into one thread , to make it easier . Skill is not the most important thing in a video game . People play video games for the experience, the entertainment . Skill is helpful to get enjoyment out of a game , but not the only factor . I'm a guy that watches streamers and youtubers for both skill and comedic value . I watch the likes of Fruit, Goth, whoever else I need for entertainment , I watch True vanguard , Datto and Planet destiny for info, mtashed for both. Both skill and entertainment play a role in how popular someone gets on twitch, as they are what people are looking for on twitch . But undeniably , the majority care about laughing more than getting better . You label them "the casual majority", and say that their needs are wrong. You have no place to say whether skill or entertainment is more important , neither do I . So let people watch what they want .

  • I watch for skill only. If you're bad, I have no interest in you.

  • Can you explain that ? I see no reason why an unskilled, yet entertaining person cannot be enjoyable to watch .

  • They are bad at the game and therefore, worthless to me. I'd sooner watch a neo-[url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url] than a noob, and I hate [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url]. lol

  • But their worth lies within their entertainment value , not the gameplay . There are 2 things people watch twitch for, skill and entertainment . A streamers "worth" to a watcher is how much the watcher can get out of it . If you want skilled play out of it , then the skilled streamer has more worth to [b]you[/b] Most people seek entertainment instead of skill, and so streamers like Goth and Broman have a lot of worth to those people . You are just sticking your fingers in your ears , yelling "everyone's values in a streamer that isn't skill is wrong , I am right , you can't argue !" . I'm not trying to convince to like them , I'm explaining to you why some people like them , which was your question. Not everyone has the same values as you, and are entitled to them as such .
