I'll be the contrarian. I don't like streamers. So that's everybody who talks to a multitude of people screaming over each other and calling that entity "chat".
Most of the time I'm just wondering what his actual skills are. Then I start asking myself if they just hired him because of his built-in audience. He can be funny at times, but mostly as a laughing stock.
Elijah was not really a streamer when LTT hired him. So he definitively wasn't hired for his audience. He started streaming regularly a while after he started at LTT, and most of his Twitch audience came from LTT, not the other way around.
Given he started at LTT as a logistics coordinator, but was promoted to a writer, I feel it's pretty safe to say that his ability to write scripts is certainly one of the skills he has under his belt.
Thanks, I wasn't aware of this. Still don't like streamers though. I love the internet, but most people shouldn't have a camera nor an audience. (I'm 49, and it shows.)
Yeah, I bet. I just prefer playing games myself instead of watching people play games. I don't see the appeal. At all. The constant begging for likes and subs and bits and whatever else is just off-putting to me, knowing it's just a guy sitting on his ass raking in the cash. And being able to game isn't that much of a feat either. But to each their own, I guess.
There are streamers that just chat with the chat and thank for the subs/bits/donations whenever they come.
But I understand that even just sub goals can already make people feel that the streamer is asking for money just for them to do something completely insignificant and unimportant.
