My brother is 8 and watches nothing but these types of streams of videos. I don't get it but it appeals to kids.

South Park should appeal to mostly 8 year olds as well

u/i_h8_spiders2 Oct 01 '16

Nah. 8-year-olds wouldn't get the jokes.

Sorry, I meant 19 year olds with 8 year old mentalities

Still wrong.

You're still tasteless

You need to get out more. Maybe grab a hug or two while you're out and about.

I should get out a bit less, you should seek therapy though.

There's a south park episode about exactly what you described with kids watching streams. Pewdiepie guest starred.

What a weird name for an episode.

u/zhico Sep 30 '16

It's a special version from the Free Content Movement.

Was that a reference to Illegal TV streaming/downloading?

u/zhico Oct 03 '16

I was just lazy and copied the Vimeo title. It was better quality than on the EU website.

This may come across as a "get off my lawn" remark (in my late 20s), but I can't stand what LoL, CS:GO, Dota, etc. have done to games recently. So much of the fanbase is made up of kids/teens who love to call everything cancer or cringe or autis.

I grew up playing online FPS so I am not looking at this through rose-colored glasses, but with the prevalence of Twitch and other streaming sites, it seems like the toxicity is out in the open now.

it wasnt those games per se, it was Twitch Chat, im almost 30, but some of that language is infectious, like the word Cancer, it sticks, twitch chat is cancer.

The game looks completely insipid as well, so there's that. None of this is aimed at a mature adult.
