It's a Friday. How hard is it to stay up a few hours?

There are plenty of things that I want to watch that take place in EU or AUS time (like certain sporting events). Guess what? I stay up for them.

We were talking about Bethesda stream, and it will be monday, middle of the night for most of EU (and probably Africa, like Marius said).

Start Twitch, set up channel, go to bed. Wake up, job done.

It doens't work. Twitch goes away status. We EU players are screwed... as always.

I would like to know if the person or committee planning E3 time slots fully applied their mind to the scheduling of said?

1 - When you have an international client base you schedule events on a SATURDAY.

2 - If you have multiple servers used by Europe at GMT+2 you are at least cognisent of the fact that its perhaps not ideal to expect them to watch your live broadcast at 2:30am

3 - You also do NOT prescribe to the Twitch followers to log in at that time or not receive the reward offered.

It's probably the most insensitive scheduling I have ever seen, but having said that, I and many players in my guild will happily set our alarms to get up literally during the Witching hour to watch the broadcast but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD please could you put a post it on the event planners screen to remember that an entire server would really prefer a little consideration when it comes to us supporting Bethesda and ZOS.

Or did I miss something here?

Of course not. But if you put a prize in there for only a portion of your playerbase, then we can think that they are disrespecful with us. Because we EU players pay for the game too. Don't forget that.

Whole Saturday is been taken over by Electronic Arts, who has the money to splash to do so
On Sunday first is Microsoft then Bethesda/ZoS (shock horror).

As you see from the schedules, all main events start at similar times in the afternoon.

@Delpi It worked for me in the past, even tho I was set to "away". If people miss out on rewards, the away status doesn't seem to be the reason for that. I received a drop for yesterday's ESO Live while I was out with friends and family last night, I had the Bethesda Twitch tab open and it worked just fine.

I actually, genuinely WANT to watch the whole thing. We are actually arranging a discord meet up on the Golden Clover Discord to watch and chat. I can only relay the frustration of fellow South African players who actually DO have a day job.
