He is unironically right, all games which have a focus on single player story telling should have AT LEAST a one week streaming/video embargo to help developers sell more copies.
He is unironically right...
absolute retard
streaming is marketing
companies PAY STREAMERS to play their games
this guy is a boomer
>anf publisher
Nah. They paid the developer their 60 dollars.
They did buy a license or the company gave it to them for free
>advertise something for free
>Pay for it
Total retard: annihilation
I've never watched a stream but even I can see how they make zoomers give a fuckton of money to the developers for something they will end up watching instead of playing.
Who will be the first company to throw down a copyright infringement action against a streamer? Think streaming will die once that can of worms is opened?
Then no one would play their shitty games. How are you gonna get the word of mouth out? TV commercials? This isn’t 1999 anymore. People don’t even watch television anymore. They’re all cutting the cord which is why networks are panicking.
Paying Twitch celebs to shill your game is usually the best course of action. Also pay people to post on Zig Forums, gamefaqs, and resetera
Retarded idea but I like it because fuck streamers
Nintendo
This
He's right but that will 110% kill all streaming and effectively transform it into shilling on a level lower then those 90's game/tech enthusiast shows.
Then it dies.
Streamers should pay to continue breathing
I am fairly certain this is already the case, at the very least with monetized streams the likes of which virtual youtubers do (They are limited to a small set of games, precisely because they lack permissions)
>BUBUBUBUT YOU'LL GET PAID IN -E X P O S U R E-
Shut the fuck up you absolute mongoloid, if you make a story driven single player game and someone watches the entirety of it on youtube/twitch, they are not going to fucking buy your game.
Retards like you only talk like this because you have no skin on the game.
Not to make a profit from it.
Good i am fine with this
There is literally nothing stopping devs from doing that. They simply dont do it because they would be shooting themselves in the foot
It is completely by choice of the devs, so why do you fags want to make it mandatory, whether the devs want to do it or not?
if i watch a dude play a game on twitch/youtube i absolutely was not going to buy the game in the first place
sorry stadia didnt work out for you btw alex
>comparing a review or preview to literally giving out videos/streams of the ENTIRE GAME
Don't use false equivalences to argue, you look dumb doing so.
It's not retarded at all, imagine if you made a movie, and everyone on earth could install his own movie theater and show your movie while MAKING MILLIONS from your work, while you get NOTHING, it's literally the same thing.
>Think streaming will die once that can of worms is opened?
hopefully
If a viewer can get the same experience of a game by watching someone else playing it, as they would by playing it themselves, then you've made a shit game and don't deserve to get any money.
Not only is he right, he's also talking about a tertiary issue in terms of vidya, making this a thread best avoided!
>buy digital movie
>stream it with my face in a corner
>non stop assraping
>buy digital game
>stream it with my face in a corner
>nu uh! I'm doing promotion
>I am fairly certain this is already the case
It's not.
>i have no real argument about the morality of the situation so i use a personal anecdote of my specific case to excuse my retardness
Yikes.
Sub atomic IQ take.
Man why is it so easy to bait retards with stupid threads like this?
Explain why it is stupid, since you are so much smarter than everyone else.
>Sub atomic IQ take
Sounds like someone couldn't make a good game. Stay mad.
Sounds like ad hominem is not an argument.
See
a film is only for watching, you can get the entire experience watching it with someones face in the corner.
a game is for fucking playing, you cannot get the experience by watching someone else play it. its like someone playing with an etch-a-sketch on stream, you watch it, then say "hey i dont need to buy one of those etch-a-sketches any more! i always wanted to try one out but now i have seen this guy online do it!"
Embargo, yes.
Monthly fee? No.
Thanks for agreeing that had no argument.
idc?
that's not for the streamers or the "community" to decide
>watching is the same as playing
>i love sucking corpo cock!
Brand loyalty and consoomers will get the rope
whatever negatively impacts streamers I support
>complains about false equivalents
>compares movies to bing bing wahoos
>BUBUBUBUT YOU'LL GET PAID IN -E X P O S U R E-
This isn't some shitty drawing on Twitter, if i see a good game, i buy said game, simple as you fucking jewish bootlicker
If your whole game is a movie, then that’s your own fault. And the devs are retards. There’s so many games that got popular on Twitch and made millions of dollars from word of mouth. Like Among Us or whatever.
If you're selling a film, but call it a game, that's false advertisement, and that is illegal.
They don't deserve any money.
>streamer streams ending of game
>absolutely ruins the game for like 10k views
>this is not a problem
this lol.
although i'm starting to think my bitterness towards streamers is jealousy? when i was a kid i had dreams of profiting off of recording myself making filmed versions of games.
I bought DMC V and REmake 2 because of streams I had watched.
On the other hand I didn’t buy TLOU2 and Tsushima because of streams I had watched.
I don't care about you. streaming literally helps millions of thieves get free shit. I will NOT support gibsmedats
>you cannot get the experience by watching someone else play it
Try again faggot, I got the full TLOU2, Life is Strange and God of War experience just by watching VoDs on YouTube
Anyone who says this is just admitting that the gameplay in their games is absolute shit and not worth buying the game for.
Based DSP schooling this clown. He is truly /ourguy/.
If they didn't want the ending spoiled, they should have stopped watching. No one was forcing them to do so.
the real answer is because of the
french film makers
they legitimized film as an art form
>morality
who gives a fuck? kill yourself lmao
still pirating cp77
Movie games are the exception. Games with actual good gameplay, you’ll have to buy those
>Buy Game
>Want to show people you playing the game
Ahem, you have a streaming loicense? Don't forget to pay *company* your royalties
it has a legit lower cost of entry
to play the game i'd need to buy/download/install the game
how?
it would have word of mouth asshole!!!
people would say its shit on forums and weblinks
>companies PAY STREAMERS to play their games
Missed that one little retard.
>a game is for fucking playing, you cannot get the experience by watching someone else play it.
This isn't true for 99% of modern games. There's literally no difference between watching some retard play it and playing it yourself, because they're purely story based and utterly linear.
Only if the requirement extends to in your home.
If you can play it in front of others live in person it's no different.
See why it's retarded for devs to have requirements at all if you didn't sign an NDA to get your copy?
>restricting freedom this much
kys commie
Jewish /American (sorry for the oxymoron) brainwashing did
>Take picture of bag
>You just created an entirely new bag, and is stealing from the bag maker
>you cannot get the experience by watching someone else play it
Yes you can, there is literally no reason to buy a game which main focus is its story if you already seen it all, and on top of that add the fact that "content creators" are literally stealing your work and making MILLIONS from it by "reacting" to them.
>claims that he is right with no argument
>uses his feelings as argument
>LMAO REKT
Yikes.
It's literally the same thing, artists create content they try to sell.
You are a child that can't even comprehend why its wrong to make a profit from other peoples work without paying the creators anything for it.
>putting your fat ass face in a corner and "reacting" to it while NOT TRANSFORMING A SINGLE THING is "transformative work"
Lmao.
