Game needs a streamer mode

I fail to see why we can't do such things without a streamer...

Just more people sucking up to e-celebs. Disgusting.

You could do what most people (myself included) do in game and simply, I don't know, pay them no mind. If you've got nothing bad to say then you have nothing to worry about.

I really don't understand why people are pestering them so much.

I remember Pewdiepie once talked about how an actual teacher brought her entire class of young children to his house when where he lived leaked and I think he basically just closed the door on her.
Like how in the hell can you be an actual adult and a teacher on top of that too and think that's appropriate?
Where does this delusion comes from?

Streamers are just people who know how to install OBS, you can do it yourself even. It's so easy-they're not special or anything, safe to just assume you're always playing with a few of them.

I don't mind people streaming me in their videos. I only look at the contents instead of the user's toons.

It's just really awkward to run into streamers when out questing. I have no idea who most of these people are but they seem to have congregated on my server. Which is ok, mostly. It just makes things difficult when you have to quest in an area with a zillion players waving glow sticks at the streamer.

I love it when huge dogpile crowds form covering the whole screen on the player and/or quest npcs either jumping around or stationary.

It's even more hilarious when someone starts spamming AOE and it starts a chain reaction, everyone goes into AOE spam hopping frenzy and it becomes an onscreen fireworks explosion.

Was it Pekora? She probably thrives off the chaos her presence causes.

Children don't know how to ignore something they don't like. They gotta stomp their feet and huff about it until people agree with them.

As we've established, Nekaru basically acts like a child - so this is kinda par for the course. The concept that people watch streamers for the fact they're actually entertaining or enjoyable to watch doesn't exist in their mind; nope, we're all just sucking up and wanting to get e-famous via leeching off their streams. Totally what's going on. /s

That said, it's unfortunate to hear Pekora is getting the same sort of harassment as Asmongold. I don't watch much of Hololive, but a friend does, and their stream culture over in Japan can arguably be worse than NA stream culture at times. To contrast: Silvervale and some of Vshoujo play XIV on stream, as well, but I've not seen nearly as much harassment or incidents like that whenever they're playing. Smaller audience than Hololive, for certain, but still.

Starting to think streamers need to at least take the effort to blur out their character name where possible, even if I know that's hard to do in the middle of an active livestream vs. an edited video.
