Thats my biggest complaint from any streamer starting a longer game, I get that not everyone is into 100+ hour games but I feel that if you don't already have an interest in the game you probably shouldn't start it on stream. Cause you either end up with a lot of people who wanted to watch you play the rest of it, or your stuck playing a long game you aren't that into cause you don't wanna upset the same crowd.
In general, when a streamer starts a game and doesn't finish it, I assume they
did at least have an interest but actually playing it didn't pan out for some reason.
For example, I really enjoyed "A Hat in Time" and was looking forward to watching some Holos play it (lots of variety in the gameplay, and lots of humor and stuff for a streamer to react to).
Botan and Anya both started singleplayer, and Ina & Gura started a co-op, all in the same couple weeks quite a while ago. Literally none of them played more than one session.
Botan: Probably just not her type of game.
Anya: Literally game-journalist at it, painful to watch.
Ina & Gura: The co-op is tacked-on and unintuitive.
Was I disappointed that I didn't get to see
anyone finish it? Yes. Are any of them to blame, individually? Absolutely not.
Hey, speaking of starting and finishing a longer game: Korone and Lamy played It Takes Two to completion already. I don't watch either of them regularly, so that's a collab partnership I wasn't expecting.
They played 8 hours straight one day and 5 hours the next.
Alarm clock me if those two have had a 1-on-1 collab before, but as far as I can tell it's a new pair, and I'm delighted to see Korone's got a new friend that's even
remotely in striking distance of her endurance.
I wouldn't think so, I don't think she's ever done anything worth targeting and twitter being what it is, would have likely swarmed her on twitter itself leaving a trail. Especially if Pippa hasn't gotten shit yet.
My best guess would be that a bunch of tools spammed her with bad lolinternet memes and humor, disregarding the fact she doesn't actually understand the context of a decent amount of that shit. Both as someone who's not deep internet, but also as ESL. The internet + anonymity tends to be unsubtle at best, and absolute faggotry at worst.
She gets internet shitpost humor better than say Uruka, but isn't versed in internet legends like Pippa or Ashelia either. Of the 4, Uruka and Tenma didn't know the pony jar for example. (Well. uruka didn't originally. I dunno if Tenma continues to evade it.) Also cultural differences like when her reaction to CWC while Pippa was giggling about the whole situation during that one stream was confusion and some empathy as to why it was seen as funny and not sad.
Even
@Godzilla1984 had a joke meme here about Pippa being sick = free money and she legit seemed to have thought it was some sort of attack on either Pippa or the Fishman until it was explained to be a joke. Which is the only other thing I would think might have caused the closure, maybe a bunch of "clever" people were asking leading questions for drama/shit talking her coworkers.
Tenma's English is fantastic, so I wouldn't put it past the autists to forget she's still ESL and send her jokes couched in three layers of "irony", expecting her to somehow unravel that and intuit their actual intention.
No shade to Godzilla's meme though, it's not like that was sent to her directly.
