no fucking way lol this industry is so fucked

These are pretty ugly.

Capitalism babe, you dumb commies lost once and won't ever never win again.

Fucking kek

Twich is so disconnected from real-worl gaming it's funny

haha this looks hella epic, love posting memes in twitch chat with the boys and watching my favorite streamers like summit1g, reckful and greek. trihards in the chat boys!!!

So can we agree that twitch is now a gambling platform?

Can you try again in English?

They could at least have put in some effort into the new emotes but I guess the same team who does Amazon's website is in charge of visual design at Twitch now.

cares

anyone got a source? can't seem to find anything about this on twitch's blog/twitter/other social shit

I refuse to believe that this is real
I went to their website to look for it, and their featured streamer is just some girl lifting weights. They don't even try to put video games in the corner of the boobie video anymore, it's pathetic

What kind of goblinoid creature even posts in twitch chat? It looks to me like screaming into the wind.

BTT already has a better Zappa

>their featured streamer is just some girl lifting weights
wtf I love twitch now

how about you just watch one fucking stream so you can see it advertised itself.

LUL

are the mods going to be gay and delete this? twitchtv is the biggest gaming platform

I already preordered twitch I cannot wait to play it. It will be fun game

STOP IT AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Haha, Kappa, am i right twitch bros? Kreygasm

They've had those for a while.

I cant wait to go into twitch chat and spam emotes. It's so fucking epic.

holy shit, it's real
fucking disgusting

Oh look, more lootbox shit for Sup Forums to lose their minds over and claim its gambling. I sure am glad we're having these daily threads over absolutely nothing

EVERYBODY STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING
user DOESN'T CARE

What if television shows had loot boxes?

>watching Bill Nye Saves the World
>commercial break
>open virtual lootbox
>get dildo in ass

>greek
>Streaming

Imagine right now there are kids whose free time and hobby is spamming memes and emotes in twitch chat.

Imagine right now there are hundreds of thousands who watch twitch streamers play games hours on end.

>are the mods going to be fags
Take a wild guess.

>watching other people play games

do you mean a dildo flys out of the box and into your ass or do you find a severed ass with a dildo inside of it.

Are loot boxes threads supposed to be threads about gaFoeN?

imagine right now there are people who waste their entire fucking time whining about trivial shit on Sup Forums

>to unlock the extra scene buy this key for 1.99$
>why not rewatch the whole movie with the directors comentary? ONLY 2.99$!
I could see it happen t b h

>There is an entire generation of losers who spend more time watching others play games than playing games
My 1 guilty pleasure is I'll watch one streamer I like every other week for maybe 2 hours when I get home cause exhaustion.

I don't even know why the mods are getting uppity over this. There'd be like 1 or 2 threads always on the catalog for a couple hours and that'd be it for the day, maybe even nothing for the whole day. Now they're enticing people to make more. Even then, it's vidya related. It's not n video games as a mechanic it is video games.

That's the joke.

no? they never were

I feel like I've been in an alternate timeline for the past couple of years that's a parody of the real world. What is happening

poor mod.

can you really blame them? looks like a easy way to make money of retards

>From now through November 3rd, go trick or treating on any Bits enabled channel by Cheering with at least 250 Bits and unlock a Halloween Crate containing one of six temporary zombie emotes. Collect all six and Zombie Lord Kappa will be yours forever.

lol

>there are people who go into said thread to complain that people are complaining

Do you want the truth?

This is a simulation and we are near the end so they are having more fun.

Because Beam is getting extremely jumpy and thinks any thread is about him or neofag.
That or he thinks shitting on lootboxes will spawn GG 2.0 like a few retards here think.

Buy the HBO gold shotgun lootbox to make all characters in The Wire have golden shotguns.

>NOT GAME RELATED beat it kid
I can see it coming

This. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

>people will gamble for temporary emotes

It's in video games as a mechanic*

Sup Forums needs new rules banning discussion on DLC, p2w, and other non gameplay subjects.

industry criticism belongs on /biz/

You know what the most horrifying thing is?

We're not at rock bottom yet. The next thing is going to be worse.

Please let it end

>temporary
so you pay for the right to use a funny icon for a limited amount of time?
the people behind this shit are brilliant, I need to come up with a way to get money by selling absolutely fucking nothing too

I can actually see morons thinking this is sound.

>spending money on a bunch of pixels

>getting outraged by this

funfact

Donald Trump has read every single Sup Forums post ever made.

How long before gaming news starts doing loot boxes?

>no Tyler
>no Soda
>no Forsen
Fucken casul, do you even twitch? I know all the memes off by heart, my favorite are:
>cmonBruh
when i pretend to be a triggered negro
>TriHard
when i see a negro
>ANELE
when i see an Arab
>Kappa
when i say an ironic SJW comment
>KKona
when an American does a thing
>FeelsBadMan
when the streamer reminds me that i have no gf
>PogChamp
when the streamer completes a goal

What is your favorites?

Nah it's okay they also give you the option to skip the gambling and just buy the zombie kappa.

It's fifty bucks.

Eventually it'll get to the point where instead of getting a paycheck at the end of the month your employer'll just end up giving you a box full of random shit that may be but probably isn't worthwhile.

>spending money on a monitor to display a bunch of pixels

you seem like someone who actually does watch twitch given that you know what any of that shit fucking means, lmao autist

Imagine,randomized wage.No more inequality! Its all down to luck!

>50 bucks

You're fucking joking, right?

>this will actually happen in our lifetime
>everything will eventually be replaced by lootboxes

I don't fuck with twitch and i'm glad i have yet another reason to never touch it lmao

oh boy cant wait for OP to be rewarded for being on topic

Funny that you mention that. One problem unrestrained capitalism often ran into was huge wealth inequality. When you have guys dropping 15K on micro-transactions, investors will take notice.

I say skip this skinner box smoke-and-mirrors horseshit. We just write up a gamespy network that's pay-to-play, and limit your access to higher tier play levels. You start stomping the shit out of the Bronze level ($15/month), you get flagged (player rating) so nobody will play with you until you pony up for the Silver level ($25/month). Etc., etc.

will the industry crash eventually?
how many million dollar events can they pull before people just can't keep up with the supply

I can't wait for lootbox vending machines,lootbox clothing stores, lootbox organ transplants,lootbox orphan adoption. It just spices everything up doesn't it.

How fucking dumb are they? Weren't people bitching about loot boxes just recently?

>tfw bought a macdonalds saucebox and got honeymustard instead of szeuchuan sauce

fuck everything

we can't go any lower

>mfw there is a niche stream i watch and even he has had people reach 50k bits donations

actually retarded

>Q. I opened a Halloween Crate and received a duplicate emote, did something happen?
>A. There is a small chance users will receive the same emote from two different Crates and you’ll have to continue Cheering to try your luck at collecting them all. If you show your support by performing a dark incantation cheer using 5,000 Bits or more in a single Cheer, you also permanently unlock Zombie Lord Kappa outright!

100 bits = $1 iirc

One problem unrestrained communism ran into was nutrition inequality

>Eventually it'll get to the point where instead of getting a paycheck at the end of the month your employer'll just end up giving you a box full of random shit that may be but probably isn't worthwhile.

Companies already do this, it's called getting paid in company shares or royalties.

Yes and most of them got banned.

Not him, but I used to watch twitch on my second monitor whenever I was grinding in a game. But right now 95% of twitch streamers just talk about subs subs subs subs. They are not even entertaining.

Twitch has become a classic economy of branding. Not how funny, good or unique you are.

>he doesn't watch twitch
u must be so cool can i suck ur dick?

The only streamer worth watching is Hampton Brandon and he's not on Twitch

do whales that gamble for digital goods have no sense of shame?

there are much better things to not give a fuck and blow money on

>Fifth month in a row you didn't get any toilet paper in the paycheck

>But right now 95% of twitch streamers just talk about subs subs subs subs
well they're internet pan handlers

Move to Mixer, dumbass.

Alright, since there's clearly no recovering from the massive fuckup that is Humanity, how soon can I expect the end of all life as we know it?

can someone explain twitch to me in general
like I get you watch some "personality" play a video game, but what's up with the chat stuff?

if they were dumb enough to blow thousands on a game they arent smart enough to have shame.

Do people actually watch random streamers on twitch?
The only times I watch twitch is when someone I know from outside twitch is streaming.

just noticed this

dansgame

Most peoples' lives are completely meaningless at the moment to the point that for some people this is quite literally the only joy they can find in life.

a lot of them are rich kids of arabs/chinese parents where the parents dont care

Don't try to understand Whales.

At least 1,500 bits...minimum... to get all six temporary emotes in order to get a single permanent emote. Oh yeah, 'nothing' wrong with that at all...
