Before playing VALORANT on her Twitch stream yesterday, Pokimane took some time to respond to the Twitch data that was leaked on top streamer payouts earlier on Oct. 6.  On her stream, Pokimane said she wasn’t surprised by the purported highest earners on Twitch, specifically xQc. “It actually makes sense to me that xQc is at the top,” Poki said. “He is who he is, he streams hella long hours, he has made such an xQcL community. He’s like the poster child of streaming.” Pokimane was also asked by her

Twitch has confirmed that the massive data leak earlier today is real.

Arguably, the most talked-about aspect of the leak so far is how it revealed the top Twitch streamers’ purported payouts on the platform. Many Twitch viewers were shocked by just how much their favorite streamers made, but some streamers, like xQc, have hinted that these numbers are even larger in reality for most mentioned in the leak.

New World is the latest MMO to burst onto the scene with thousands of players diving into the exciting world of Aeternum. But not all gamers, including popular streamer Summit1g, are jumping into the action just yet.  During a recent stream, Summit explained his opinion on New World and how it’s not the type of game he wants to play at the moment.  “I don’t want to spend my whole day grinding,” Summit said. “I’d rather get like nice cheeky one-vs-ones than, you know, huge six-vs-sixes and shit like that

To call Death Stranding a divisive game would be a bit of an understatement. There are just as many people out there who absolutely love it as there are those who were put off by its mundanity; just as many proponents of its gorgeous and desolate world, its unique online mechanics, its mechanical depth as there are harsh critics of its clumsy narrative and overbearing storytelling, its deliberate pacing and structure, its emptiness and repetition.
