>who is the best streamer to sub to?

me, of course

amazon's willing to spend money to make money in the long term, even if it hits their wallets in the short term

>giving someone money for playing video games

what the fuck I wish I was an attractive young person I'd play pubg or whatever bullshit gets the views for some cash

Amazon doesn't make money.

i dont follow any of this eceleb bullshit but you have to pay to subscribe to people?

you just need to hustle and be sarcastic for a month and the money comes in super ez
>that spoony guy's butt fucking ugly and he gets money
>that cosmo guy's butt fucking ugly and he gets money

>i don't follow
you don't follow anything apparently
>you're paying to support entertainers and their motives to entertain
>you pay a fucking comedian to make jokes
>you pay internet to get service
>you pay for a movie ticket to support making more movies
>you pay someone to be able to make you the food you eat
how fucking stupid are you
seriously

Its not like youtube subscriptions.
You can follow freely but subscriptions let you get special stream-specific emotes and a little tag next to your name. There is also shit like subscriber-only chat mode and shit like that which can be turned on to incentivize subscribing.

im talking about twitch faggot and i horde my money and buy shit at extremely low prices and ignore any and all eceleb/stream bullshut

>what is entertainment

Watching faggots play video games is not entertainment.

not manchildren playing videogames while other people watch, that's for sure
perhaps it is the games themselves as entertainment takes effort. otherwise you say that watching paint dry is also entertainment as it takes as much effort as being a streamer does

>who is the best streamer to sub to?

>what is entertainment to you two?

>who is the best streamer to sub to?
kill yourself

get out of here fucking stoner

I watch some of these people play games every so often, but I can't fathom giving them money. Ever.

who are you quoting?
why are you so butthurt that streaming isn't a real job?

my original post was about twitch. isnt there a thread about player colors skin color you could be shitting up instea?

how do you figure

goalposting just for (yous)

I just want to know what money you actually throw down to, because you're both saying there's nothing worth paying for
>and that it's not worth paying your goddamn internet bill just to shit all over a mongolian message board because you're too butthurt

>pc gangclan is boring as hell
>no pos4 gangclan in almost a year
at least we are getting another evil within run in a few days

Google it faggot

Kripp. Dude is honest, he doesnt have meme donations blasting in the middle of his streams but he still thanks subs between games (since people really need their names called out for whatever reason). I hate that he mostly streams hearthstoje but he at least only does arena and is very honest about the game. Honestly best streamer just to not having sub/follower/donation notifications popping up alone

The only guy I'm subcribed to is an Russian accordion player. He doesn't talk much and if he does I don't understand a word of it but there's something relaxing about listening to a seemingly depressed guy playing an instrument.

Egg

...

Not the same user but watching people and paying to watch people play video games is fucking retarded
for the benefit of a 1kb emoji on their channel

im subbed to five people

>How is twitch able to do this?
A base level Twitch subscription is $5. With that subscription, Twitch receives $2.50 and the streamer receives $2.50.

What's his name?

if it aint worth throwing down 5 bucks towards an internet entertainer, why does your family throw down money to subscribe to cable?

So is this a response to YouTubes demonetization ?

Shut the fuck up holy shit

The reasoning is that people are likely to forget to unsub or continue subbing due to twitch chat emotes after getting to use them once. Its a very solid strategy

>browse Retro
>enjoy watching some old school games
>subscribed to no one
>still have a good time

And thats the proper way to enjoy twitch.

>your family throw down money to subscribe to cable
[citation needed]

*I don't

Plus with that argument for say $20 a month I can have 200+ plus channels opposed to one single streamer

mozg888vadim
He's not online right now though.

>for say $20 a month I can have 200+ plus channels
So that can be
>for say $20 a month I can have 200+ plus streamer subscriptions
>what is Amazon Prime (price adjusting)
Just looking for a justification, that's all

>butthurt teenbro can't understand why people don't throw money at e-celebs in the hope they will become a surrogate friend
are twitch streamers the telephone sex line workers of generation Z?

Looks kinda neat.
I'll check him out when he is streaming again.

>paying for a service like internet or a meal is the same as, not just paying to watch faggots play video games, but paying faggots so that you can use their gay emotes in their chat that moves at 1000 posts per second of memespam with all the other 13 year olds and literally never gets read by anybody because nobody cares about you.
for what fucking purpose.

headlines say they're making more money than before

We get it, you are an unsuccessful stream "entertainer"
lmao

>paying for any form of entertainment when piracy exists
are twitch subscribers the epitome of reddit mentality?

There's an active duty police officer who streams on RL. Not sure if its ethical though he blocks it at certain times.

Does Twitch advertise here or is it just retarded kid streamers trying to get some viewers?
Alot of shitty Twitch E-celeb threads recently.

More like 4
Since $5 is the base subscription to a channel

>paying money to watch a video game stream

He sometimes streams video games but I don't watch that, only the music. He tries to be uplifting but isn't very convincing and you can sense his depression through it all. It's a bit like watching a slowly dying man pouring his heart and soul into something the world doesn't care about. I think it's the subtle tragedy of it all I'm attracted to. He's a damn fine accordion player though.

nah, you people are just recycling the "fun is a buzzword" meme and I just happened to notice it, so i was looking for a legit reason why you think it's not worth paying for another episode of The Kardashians
>and the "prove me right" meme

and this faggot is still baiting people whew

the only streamer that i've ever watched for any amount of time was handi.
>a guy with no fucking hands
>who destroys scrubs in cs by pecking on his keyboard with his nose and aiming with his nubs
i mean it's so absolutely impressive that i might subscribe. he even hops on a fucking scooter and goes up the street to the gas station to buy smokes while streaming from his phone. watching a guy with no hands smoke a cig is more entertaining than 99% of everything else on twitch.

it's part of the culture now, whether you like it or not. those anons are legitimate fans.

Just nicked my balls while trimming pubes

The under-20 set have always been about which entertainers they follow as one of the ways they connect. Choosing a streamer to watch is like choosing a movie star or a musician for us old folks: it's friendship criteria.

>I quit my job to be a twitch "entertainer"

Is there anything more pathetic? Some of my friends did this and are barely scraping by. I'm curious to see where they end up in 3 years.

>was excited for Tekken 7 to come out, Aris streaming it thinking it was a bonus
>no he basically only streams Tekken 7 and it's become boring
>last gang klan was amazingly funny
>still goes through Tekken 7

>these anons are drooling retards with no concept of value

Except you're not sending your favourite movie star money or giving musicians money just so they can read out a message on screen and you can feel like you have a "celebrity friend"

Given how many awful and equally pointless jobs there are it's indeed a viable career choice. Go be a salesman for a few months and you will quickly feel dead and empty and with the lousy pay convincing yourself you're in for the money isn't working very well either.
Not everyone gets up with a sense of purpose in the morning and before life breaks you it might be worth doing something different that you potentially enjoy.

>Sup Forumsermin
>neets

Nah instead we overpay for concert tickets or movie passes and go with friends. We're just used to getting entertained in public.

>Twitch is a viable career choice
It's an over saturated market you fucking idiot.
>Not everyone gets up with a sense of purpose
Lazy children who want to sit at home and talk into a microphone like Rupert Pupkin instead of making a career.

false equivalency. why are all twitch fancucks so adept at mental gymnastics?

Are you guys legitimately young or something? Like, do you not realize that people around the world have been ditching "stable" careers for "exciting solo" shit for decades now?
Selling "handmade" jewelry on etsy. Becoming a craft beer maker. etcetc
This is not new whatsoever, but people around here like to pretend it is for some reason, I guess envy over a shitty fucking job that ruins your enjoyment of games? I'll never know.

Streaming on twitch isn't ANYWHERE near as saturated as it should be. You have to be delusional to think it's saturated right now.

Like everything in capitalism you can try it and if you get away with it and sustain then it's validating itself. Many people rely on having two jobs today and if one of them is being a streamer then it's totally fine.

Did you misquote someone? Did you even read the fucking comment?

I don't do either of those. The only concerts I go to are good value. Only retards pay $200 for a concert.

>last gang klan was amazingly funny
still not as perfect as the pos4 ones, yet i believe gangclan in both platforms is the best thing to come out of his channel
>opening the stream and this is playing

>Selling "handmade" jewelry on etsy. Becoming a craft beer maker. etcetc
You think these are "viable career choices"?

Why are you moving the goalpost now? why is it streaming AND a job? The fucking hoops you have to jump through to justify your shitty life choices.

>You think these are "viable career choices"?
Did you not read the comment at all?

>there are actually people, I mean 12year olds, who are willing to spend use their mother's credit cards so they can spam kappa monkas in chat

youtube.com/watch?v=gz5QecZC1e0

>there are people who sub to streamers who barely stream at all

They put all of the money they make back into the business itself as a perpetually growing machine - or some shit like that.

>Doesn't have an argument
>d-did you not read the comment at all

Just the fact this thread has 75 posts and 33 of them are unique posters means there are twitch shitters who are so determined to defend their great "career choices"

Who gives their kid credit card details to donate to anything.

>there are people on Sup Forums right now who donate to a sisterfucker who barely releases videos
>there are people on Sup Forums right now who sub to twitch channels just to get recognized by a literal who
>there are people on Sup Forums right now extremely envious of streamers

where did it all go wrong

>Why are you moving the goalpost now?
I'm not, you are. You damn well know nobody just materializes out of thin air and has a computer, internet connection, video games and then streams. People have an income or savings to fund their hobby and early streaming attempts for a while until it becomes self-sufficient.

I'm going to ask again because you seem confused, did you read the comment at all?
If you did, you'd have realized that we aren't actually arguing separate points but you seem utterly confused.
So confirmed retarded kid. As is the Sup Forums norm nowadays.

He said used, not given.

I'm such a troll though, I donate and get kappa faces on the screen and grief the streamer. Top lel

>sisterfucker
Go on.

fair enough

sub to demo

Sub to peachsaliva she's great.

I'd have to assume that most kids don't steal their parents credit card for it, who'd risk that shit over wanting to donate to some shitty streamer.

Donated it to someone who tries at least, when I got my free sub I just gave it away to some artist with decent work and not some faggot who screams into the mic while playing overwatch for the 500th time.

Yeah, they most likely leave the details in there. Shit parenting is encouraged these days.

HE IS LIVE

They put all their money into the CEO's pocket as a 'business expense', google that and how they were created by the cia

>google that and how they were created by the cia

spinning hot wax

Aris is fucking great, I just wish he'd disable the TTS on his donations.

>sub is half off
>streamer gets full amount
>make a dummy account and sub to yourself for one month
>double your money doing nothing

>Pay £25 to a girl on stream
>write a message and shoutout to my friends in chat
>She gets mad at the salt emote
>ruin her stream

Twitch is fucking great lads
