Did you buy a text based game about politics and expect to have fun or something.

And Amazing vs Google is the gaming wars:

http://www.theverge.com/2015/6/12/8772097/youtube-gaming-twitch

I will be interested to see if big events like the International and LCS start to positioning themselves as exclusive to one or the other. Its how most sports make their money, though contracts and TV deals with cable networks.

I get the 60 FPS for gaming, but I am not sure its going to be worth it for pulling down on streams. Even with fios, 1080p 60FPS can be a struggle for my ISP. But I guess if your ISP can handle it, why not.

Yeah I'm really curious how those deals are going to go. Not sure that Valve or Riot would be willing to move exclusively to either platform though. Easy to make a lot of people angry and hear that you're "selling out" even more than usual.

i doubt this is going to work unless they pay out a significantly higher amount than twitch, assuming that both platforms are equally reliable

what twitch thrives on is a self-sustaining culture and the interaction between the broadcaster and his audience. to pull that away from twitch you'd have to pull the streamers away and without significant incentive i doubt anyone is going to voluntarily switch

rtz was just whining today about his "contract with twitch" and how bad it was
I'm sure people would watch on a different network to watch RTZ assuming it was decent.

It's not really motion blur, sno, more like, text that is pixelated, it doesn't leave shadows or anything like it would in a fast shooter.

They have to sell it to fans by letting them know where the money is coming from and why its good. If this was combined with the beginning of profit sharing with the major teams, it could be good for everyone. Also cut down on the bullshit like betting, roster shuffles and so on.

Or it could just flop, but I doubt google is going to let that happen. They have the money to attract streamers and events.

I agree and I think google would need to make some significant offers to get people to risk changing. But they have more than enough money to throw around.

I'm suggesting that there are nonfiscal benefits to streaming on twitch that indirectly translate to tangible benefits (building community on your channel -> donations/subs)
there have been a bunch of other platforms that performed as well as twitch on the technical side, but never really took off even if they had better contracts (own3d, ustream, current youtube, mlg.tv, AZUBUUUU etcetc)

at least this is my observation from a complete outsider's pov

This new computer is so quiet compared to my old one that I am really startled when I take off my headphones because I still instinctively expect the jet turbine of my old CPU cooler but instead am greeted by nothing but ambient noises from outside. Shit's spooky. n_n
