Twitch Streaming Question

[Kaneki Flesheater 83]

Hey all!

 

Before I start I need to point out that I really had no idea where the best place to post this question would be   

I'm writing here to ask you all if you think it would be a good idea to stream KH3 when it releases. There are a few reasons for and against streaming I'd like to add as my own opinions, but I'd like to hear your input on the matter too.

My reasons FOR streaming KH3 are:
 

• I absolutely love KH, It's my all time favourite thing
• I really enjoy streaming and building a community around the things I love
• I think a lot of people would enjoy seeing me react to the game live

My reasons AGAINST streaming KH3 are:
 

• Spoilers for the viewers watching
• I'd only be able to play it when I want to stream
• I'm unsure on whether or not it will get that many views

So with all that being said, do you think it would be a good idea to stream KH3?

That question could be applied to any game. Personally, I don't stream. And even if I did, I like to be fully immersed in my games the first time around, so I probably wouldn't stream it as soon as it came out. The stream might be a bit distracting.

 

In fact, I'm thinking of basically going into a KH3 blackout as soon as January comes around.

I would say, if you really wanna stream it, go ahead. However, you can have a second file where you're just playing yourself to enjoy the game, or like Andrew Roland said, play the game first, then stream it. As for spoilers, people who watch your stream should know that by watching you play the game, they're going to get spoiled, it's just common sense. And as for views, with how much hype KH3 is getting, especially the fact that it won E3, I think a lot of people will want to watch the stream. The way I see it, there are three types of people. Those who will get the game right away and play it themselves, those who won't be able to afford it right away and not want anything spoiled, and those who won't be able to afford it but still want to see everything they can on it. It'll be that latter group, with possibly some from the first group as well, who will be your viewer base. Just know that you probably won't be the only one streaming the game, as there are quite a few KH streamers out there, though most are Speed Runners, they still enjoy the game as is and may stream just a regular Let's Play, while also looking for strats.
