    Game needs a streamer mode

    The game needs a setting that enables the /busy flag before you even get into the game.

    Watching one of the first Hololive players start the game for the first time, it's pretty sad to see how they get flooded with whispers and what not. They even had 27 friend request before getting out of the very first cutscene. The entire time they were in the cutscene they kept hearing the friend request sound AND seeing the message popup in the middle of the screen.

    That'd be nice, some sort of flag that says who's streaming in the party. I ended up leaving a Nier run because someone announced they were streaming.

    Some of us don't want to be on a stream, so the warning was wonderful. Most don't mention it though and it irks me to know how many times I've been on someones stream when I hate streamers and don't support them.

    If people are announcing they are streaming, it's probably for advertisement. Doubtful they even have viewers.

    I would be 100% against something that says a person is streaming. The whole point is draw less attention to their character while in game so they aren't swarmed and can enjoy the game more.

    If you had never known that person was streaming then you wouldn't have had any different experience in the game. You being a random person running around on their screen is in no way supporting them either.

    I don't want to unknowingly support something I don't support.

    Principle of the matter.

    I think if streamers get a flag attention seeking snowflakes will end up ruining the whole raid half of the time..

    They can always not show their screens until they are in the game.

    At some point, the onus is on the streamer to prevent things from happening to them.

    In this day and age, it's honestly best to assume someone in every party you join is streaming. Even your own FC. Furthermore, not everyone covers their chat boxes either. Becareful what you say in chats. You never know who is streaming, how large their audience is, and wither or not their chat is covered. Thise goes for friends too. When you send tells, you don't know if they are streaming or even screen sharing over Discord.

    There isn't an option to block all requests outside friends? That way Streamers can add those they trust and only get requests from them?

    I also would like to see a super obvious flag when someone is streaming so everyone else will know that person is streaming and we can all have more fun with these people.

    Every time a huge crowd gathers and follows the streamer around it's comedy gold and really entertaining, especially how so many people try to crowd out the npcs all shamelessly, cracks me up.

    It's like a Town Party, the whole neighborhood is out and about
