I still don't understand the draw to twitch/streaming. Unless you're doing some interesting content (raiding) etc. How is it more enticing than watching golf?

It's a social thing, people chat with the host and each other. And sometimes the host invites the people watching to come join their group or even gives out their vent server so the people watching can get on and chat. It isn't about watching someone play EQ, it's about having a good time with EQ players.

This guy hit the nail on the head. Not only do people tend to watch when they are not able to play (work on down time, school on down time), but so many people stumble in and say they remember the glorious everquest days and are shocked to see they can re-experience it.

I definitely like to chat with people, and make friends in the stream, and in game. I like to give out extra items that are donated, learn stuff from viewers. Lots of open discussion about anything really. I have met some awesome people by doing it. I feel a lot closer to the community.

yet people still watch golf by the millions so what exactly is your point Andervin? You clearly do not like watching it, so dont. But plenty of people do

I guess my point would be golf... wtf do people watch it? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I like to watch it to see how different people play. For instance I saw how much better the HD graphics are today and got into a nice debate about dual weilding pets.

Turns out the pets will hold 2 weapons before they should but they dont attack with both until the proper level.

This guy is a quality, non-dbag streamer, which is actually pretty uncommon for p99. Drop in and spread the p99 word.

I need my account back so I can show people how to properly play Necromancer.

Going live for a few hours starting now! Hope to catch some of you in here.
