RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I have never felt any desire to watch any streamer. The closest thing would be watching live baseball, so if that counts I guess my favorite streamer is the Minnesota Twins.

Yep it's not for everyone. I love it for background when I'm lemmying

Northernlion cause he's the king of banter. The only times he isn't talking about something somewhat interesting on stream is when he's on a bathroom break.

i prefer recorded stuff, for the same reason i don't watch linear TV. but i'll link to twitch because that's where everyone is these days.

but Jesse Cox and Dodger are old-guard peeps who are still great. they do a podcast together every week.

The entire Vinesauce team is also great, with Joel and Limes being highlights for basically opposite reasons.

also Lucahjin, Snapcube, and Cakejumper.

oh and Froggy.

I really like Jen is Online she's really fun, positive and caring. She plays games I like to watch.

Vitasynth does really laid back streams and has a good group.

Beckachu does a big range of games, and she's got a good crew of followers.

I'm the world's least loyal Twitch viewer. I tend to shop around for streams of any given game I'm currently obsessed with (I have watched my fair share of Disco Elysium streams over the years) but I never really stick around when they move on to a game I don't care about.

On balance over time I guess my answer would be Northernlion, though I really only consume his content via the Library of Letorneau YouTube channel.

Mr. Sark when he's not playing solo, but i never watch streaming. VOD for me. Also did CritRoll for a while, but just kinda drifted away during campaign 3.

ChilledChaos on Twitch/YouTube, he plays variety games and I love the social deception games most. His friend group is also really cool so I watch a few of them as well.

Mine is vargskehelthor from vinesauce, His metal humor and irational fear for aliens is always amusing to me :)

I guess I dont even know the name of one.

I like to watch the McElroy brothers stream The McElroy Family Clubhouse on YouTube. It’s like a fun, casual variety show they film through their webcams. It always gets a laugh out of me.
