Let's bring back ESO on Twitch

macchd · January 2016

The last couple of weeks I started watching ESO streams again and I noticed that barely anyone is watching ESO Streams, but until a couple of weeks back I didn't think anyone was really streaming ESO except the official Channel.

There are a lot of good Streamers that are definitely worth checking out. My mate and I wanted to help so we started a twitch Channel of our own and we will start streaming tomorrow at 8 pm GMT. It would be awesome if you could stop by to tell us what you want to see in an ESO Stream, what we can improve and how we can keep people interested in ESO Streams as a whole.

How can you stream if everybody has 500 ms in best PvP MMO 2015 ?

UrQuan · January 2016

I don't watch a lot of streams on Twitch because I'm only interested in watching someone else play a game if I find that person to be entertaining. I'm not really interested in the game they're playing or whether they're awesome at it or whatever, I'm only interested in whether I find it entertaining, and that's only going to happen if I find the person entertaining. Also, I have to see the person's face. If I can't see the person's face, I can't see the person's facial reactions to what's going on in the game, and that's often what I find the most entertaining.

Having said that, there are a number of people on the forums who stream ESO. The only one I watch regularly is @MissBizz (heck, sometimes I'll be grouped with her while she's streaming) but there are other good ones who I've watched here and there. @HeroOfNone is another one who I find very entertaining (and another player who's fun to group up with), but I can't watch his streams regularly because the cat freaks me out

Anyone who has watched his streams knows what I'm talking about. @Elloa is a good one who I've watched a couple of times. I prefer her Youtube videos where she does a review of something or discusses her play style or something over watching her stream though.

Um, now I'm drawing a blank on which other streamers I've watched and thought were good... I know there are a couple of others I'm missing.

Herfi's evil cat will take your soul!!! And ignore the random sining blurbs. Thats just me being annoying.

Meow.

There are a couple of us that regularly stream ESO, though times may vary for a lot of us as well as content. PVP seems to get the most attention in popular streams but I do enjoy my time doing dungeons and chatting with folks (assuming I'm not raging at some boss).

I wish ya luck and hope you won't get too discouraged with the numbers while you stream. Things can rise or fall depending on the community.

See and I'm way more likely to watch a stream if it's not PVP than if it is. I don't think I'm a typical Twitch viewer by any stretch of the imagination, though.

JD2013 · January 2016

Well, I was thinking of starting doing some ESO videos with commentaries, state of the game videos and streams etc . . . This is the first game I've ever felt any urge to do that for.

Hm. Not sure.

Ha! The joke's on the cat! I've already sold my soul so many times there are 3 mortgages on it! Good luck getting it!

MissBizz · January 2016

Oooh! Another streamer streamin' ESO! Hello there!

You should add what time zone your stream times are in. Hero's 7pm vs my 7pm vs UrQuan's 7pm are all different for example.

The reason I mention that is I clicked the follow button so if I can I'll check out your (ESO) stream sometime!

What type of content do you primarily play when you stream ESO? I'm just curious

Alright! @JD2013 it's best if you stick to a schedule. Why? Because it's like someone TV show. They want to know when it will be on.

Talk to your viewers. That's why they enjoy it so much.

Don't pretend you are something you are not. Because you will suck at it.

Invite people who know you to watch your stream at first. The more viewers you have, the higher you show up when people look for the game.

...yeah I don't have a clue really.

Yeah I can only be myself when I am speaking as me, so prepare for lots of nerdiness and ES enthusiasm.

Definitely talk to the viewers. Check.

I was going to post it in the PC threads on here first if I do it. Invite people I feel comfortable talking to.

Hm. Definitely thinking about giving it a go.

Thank you

Is it sad that I'm about 90% sure I know what that gif is from, even though you can't see any identifying details?

I'm about 90% sure it's from Supernatural... I could be wrong, but I really don't think so.

Now that you mention it, it feels like it should be from that.

TotterTates · January 2016

I stream several nights per week and weekends (when my wife doesn't have something for me to do). I don't have a huge following, but the regulars are a great group of people.

I mostly stream endgame PVE (a lot of vMA lately).

twitch.tv/tottertanks

I actually just finished streaming for the night, but I'll be back tomorrow night. Feel free to stop by!

TheValkyn · January 2016

Best stream advertisement of 2016.

Slylok · January 2016

I have tried streaming ESO but in general people really arent interested in watching it. So I decided just to make first person gameplay videos and put them on youtube. Many people who stream for a living have to play games they do not enjoy because that is where the audience is.. Sad.

bsmorrowb14_ESO · January 2016

I'm seeing a lot of streamers starting to play other games like Black Desert and what not. Especially when the lag kicks in.

Lokryn · January 2016

No offense to anyone but I find ESO streams boring for the most part. This really goes for most MMOs though. I enjoy seeing Trials and PVP to a degree but general questing is too boring for me.
