People that are really good play the game and thats why they are good.

I understand this. What I do NOT understand is what actually makes people believe they're good? It makes no sense to me.

Also, quite ironically, the actually good players who DO stream as well are usually barely popular. Don't know anyone specifically in ESO like that but wow had plenty.

I watch a couple of streamers as background noise while I play. There's many, many more I don't watch because their humor isn't my favorite or I don't like the pace of their gameplay etc. But I don't feel any need to have strong opinions on either group. Best of luck to the streamers that are recognized as good players and the glorified overrated ones.

I care because people often point or go to them for advice or even use them to prove some random points. Or in the worst case, reflect on their words when it comes to gameplay and even development.

For information from other people, you yourself should know who is a reliable source, but for newer players these streamers are very easy to watch and get somewhat good information from.
Since you already know these "better" people, you can turn to them, but I don't see any reason to change other people their views on a streamer unless they want to change it themselves. If they need to find this "better" player, they will find it during their encounters
Successful streamers have good personalities & are essentially entertainers. I think that quality attracts more viewers than being "the best" player at any game.

I understand that and I'm fully supporting that. If they're entertaining and get fame for that, good for them!
However, I'm asking a different question here. Why are some people glorifying them as the ultimate masters

In ESO, no one cares who the best players are. It isn't an e-sport. People care about who is entertaining and who is informative.
A better question is why some people are bothered by what other people like?
