The rewards have gotten worse and worse since they started doing it too. Can't even give away copies of a skin with no real world value - gotta keep squeezing blood from that stone. Most of the drops require you to pay amazon for a sub now as well. Not happening bucko.

because i'm usually playing games offline/cracked/modded, i take great joy in adding in that sort of promotional content to my save even if i have zero interest in the content to begin with. just out of spite
the whole concept just confuses the hell out of me. you've launched up your game. you're about to play your game yourself. why would the game want to direct you away from the game to watch someone else play the game?
Twitch sucks to actually watch stuff on to. There's ads even with ublock, and the live chat is distracting at best.
Isn't it always just some lame skin or cosmetic?
The only cool thing about cosmetics was when I sold a few counter strike skins for like $60 when CS2 came out. I haven't even played cs in years

I quit playing war thunder years ago because once you get to tier 3-4 you have to treat it like a full time job to make any progress. Oh you unlocked a new plane? Have fun playing 200 matches against even better fully upgraded planes until yours is anywhere near competitive. All so they can sell you a premium account subscription or a single plane that costs as much as a full other game
Although it was kinda fun stomping on people in tier 2 if you know how to climb and energy fight
yeah twitch drops have always felt sus and weird to me as a marketing mechanism, if a livestream has interesting info then presumably you don't need cosmetic incentives to attract an audience, and yet every large game dev company does it because 'common marketing wisdom' and 'everyone else is doing it'
it's weird how nowadays game dev companies treat twitch viewership numbers as a measure of a game's buzz and how they sign deals with streamers to promote the game to their viewers, it looks underhanded and it's out in the open but they don't care I guess
question is... are you rushing to the corner store right now to buy some Doribos and energy drinks to get a wolf mount in ESO ???
