Twitch drops NEED to start giving us PROPER notifications

mrfrontman · December 2019

As the title states - I've come to realize that there is a large majority of players who are completely unaware that Twitch drops even exist for ESO, can you really blame them though? There's no real notifications telling us about it on the launcher and you have to properly browse around the website before you can find info on it. The only real notifications you have going for Twitch drops are on the forums - in the News section. To be honest, this doesn't help players who aren't on the forums or constantly check them for that matter for Twitch drops. This is causing a lot of people to miss out on something really cool which I'm sure most players would want if they actually knew about it. Can we please start getting some notifications about Twitch drops on the Launcher?

At the bottom of the page there's a drops schedule

Although it would be nice for this to be more prominent

It might also help if there were prominent tips on what you need to do. For instance, I got ticked off because I watched some streamers and didn't get a drop, not just one day but on multiple occasions. And then I noticed that whenever I start up the Twitch app on my computer it defaults to "offline" mode, so I need to go to my settings and change it to "online" mode every single time-- and I think the option to "share my viewing history" or whatever the wording is needs to be turned on as well. Let everyone know of any hoops that need to be jumped through on both sides (ESO and Twitch) and what details to double and triple check to save yourself from robbing yourself of your rewards.

Agree with you OP. I just happened to go on Twitch and noticed they were on, didn't see it anywhere else. It's a pretty bad system if they expect everyone to find out by word of mouth, forums, or 3rd party websites (Twitter, Facebook). It is for the game is it not, so the first line of notice should BE THE GAME itself yeah?

Just going to leave this idea here for an updated launcher design.

Patch Notes accessible through the launcher? I wish....
Instead I get blasted with "LOOK WHAT YOU CAN BUY NOW" all day, every day.
