Yesterday there were 600 total viewers on Twitch when Grubby isn’t streaming (playing on NetEase btw, guess why).
Patching so aggressively that I can’t keep up with hitting the update button.
Nice.
Perfect.
Thank you.
See you next year when you scale a UI button by 1 pixel so we can download a 10 GB update.

Do people still play games or just watch other people play games?

Why play games when I can have someone else play them for me?

You think I can play the game without it crashing, dcing or blowing up my PC with 20 fps?

Not saying you don’t, but can you show me screen shots that you own the game?
And with 20 FPS, and the crashing, dc’s and …blowing your PC?
Thanks!

I am not aware of what PC you own to let you know. But if you have a link to a video of a PC literally blowing up from WCIII that would be amusing to watch.

twitch viewership is useful but sometimes it is really not that important

Twitch viewership for warcraft 3 has always been low, before reforged came out, there were less than 100 viewers until someone who’s popular in the title streams it.
Edit: Actually ill make a new thread about it.
(Literally a copy/paste from other one.)
This is not his forum. Stop advertising him here. Most people here wouldn’t know (nor care) who that is.
It can be important, it displays the general interest in a game, and is very important for marketing as well.
The fact that viewers are low just shows that reforge did not have a very big punch effect with a new target of customers (which was obviously WoW players).

there are huge games without a great viewership but yeah reforged was also a failure
funny but when he made this thread grubby was streaming with 5k viewers alone…
Ocarina of Time only has 500 viewers, I hear that’s a crappy game.
And yet there are 6.3k viewers right now…
That’s a bit of a difference from 600.

???, Ocarina of Time came out in 1998.
Think the overall point being made is W3:R, a newly released BLIZZARD game should be pulling way more numbers than it should be for the first few weeks or month, like most newly released titles

It seems to have dropped back to pre-reforged levels, maybe a bit higher, maybe a bit lower, depends on the week you look at.
Why can’t we just use actual facts when we argue people?
Far more then just 600 viewers, maybe 600 the first 5 min xD
The 600 is clearly when Grubby isn’t streaming, something OP said. Tbh I’d want to know if that average takes into account reruns (going to guess it does), because Grubby does quite often rerun his streams, which, funnily enough, pull in higher numbers than 99.9% of other WC3 streamers.
It’s a rerelease of an 18 year old game…not a new game. No one should ever have expected it to have the popularity of a brand new game.
