If you stream for money shame on you. Gaming should be a hobby not a job. You people begging for money make me sick. I don't know what's worse the people streaming for money or the idiots who donate to them?
While you're sitting on your ass fighting aliens you have little kids fighting cancer. Shame on you...
-
Ever heard of do what you love for a living? A lot of streamers have college degrees. On top of that going to college is just becoming more and more a waste of money. Don't judge people for choosing a path that brings them happiness.
-
No matter how many times i look at gaming, i feel like it should be spelt with double 'M's. English.......
-
Most of the replies are proof lol... Streamers are a disease, leeches even. Paying people who are probably living off daddy's droppings to play games is wrong. They offer nothing of actual value to the public and will have no actual job skills when their channels die
-
Agreed. Every time I see someone asking for donations in return for flawless ToO I think...who would be stupid enough to do that? I mean, I will never see lighthouse. That being said, I would never pay someone to carry me on a video game.
-
Why would anyone watch anyone else playing a video game. If you watch you may have a mental disability or lack any real interest. Lonely life.
-
Actually people like you ruin the gaming community.

Edited by DownwardSpyril: 6/7/2015 1:26:48 AMNever understood the desire to watch someone play a video...much less donate to them. If I have the spare time...I am going to use it to play the game myself...and use that money to support my hobby.
-
Your paying for their opinion and the emotes. Ppl like gothalion make so much because Ppl obviously value there word and knowledge about games.
-
Dumbest statement of the day^^ movies are for entertainment should actors not be paid either?
-
I take it you are an unsuccessful entertainer or tried to be?
-
Calm down before you have a stroke jeminy crick kiddo. People decide their own paths

Edited by M0n5t3rKing: 6/7/2015 1:33:53 AMI would stream just for fame and friends never have people to play raids and stuff in destiny or any other game only have 16 in my XB1
-
Wow ur dumb...
-
I think people watching people playing, instead of playing themselves is the problem. I'm sure there are some cases acceptable, but I think most people watching those streams have no clues to. What's the point?
-
I find it amazing people can do it for a living. Good for them. I do however cringe when I see people throwing down $100s.

Edited by Kibeth: 6/7/2015 12:42:19 AMPeople should provide entertainment for free. You should only make money if it's super horrible to do and you hate every minute of it. Right?......Right? If someone has 5,000 viewers, it's because they are providing something that people want. If people CHOOSE to tip the entertainer, that's their choice and doesn't hurt you. Seems like you're just salty that someone can do what they love and make money doing it.
-
If you don't like it don't watch it. If your going to make the argument that money should be donated to a better cause then why don't you write all the people getting donations for various things and write them. Your a idiot. I like how you try to tell people what they should do with their money and what a morally ok and not
-
Lol... You bringing up cancer on this? How are they making a income if they are wasting 2-8+ hrs of stream? Its a way of living... Just dont watch and dont bring up cancer just to express how you feel. Is ironic, you sicken me.
-
You posted on a forum instead of trying to cure that kid's cancer. You, sir, are a worthless pile of shit.

Edited by Kage Goomba: 6/7/2015 12:57:36 AMIf idiots want to give people money for playing games.... who are we to judge. sounds like you be jelly kid.... As to my comment: I happen to "slightly" agree - I would not pay people that kind of money. That's what sponsors are for. :P Better things to spend money on. But I wouldn't bitch about it here either.
-
It's called capitalism, OP.
-
I just don't get how people watch them, there's nothing more boring to me than watching someone else play a game
-
Ruining it for whom? You have no idea what you are talking about. I watch Twitch every day and it doesn't cost me a cent to view game streamers. How much does your Internet, TV subscription, and cell phone cost you? Perhaps you should disconnect all of them.
-
Really what's worse u spending 15 bucks a person to watch a movie that could be super shitty Or Paying 5 bucks a month to watch hours upon hours of content that probly isn't super shitty because you get to choose who to subscribe to
-
YEA -blam!- THE STREAMERS

Edited by The Godsmith: 6/7/2015 12:48:12 AMIt's sad that OP doesn't understand how capitalism works.
