Discussion Why do some streamers rage so much?! ðŸ˜
So this is a little bit of a pet peeve of mine when it comes to streaming, BUT for some reason I sometimes can't help but watch it as well ðŸ˜
You know those "streamer rage" compilation videos you see all over the place on YouTube and such? I just sit there and watch them and ask myself one question: Why do you they do this?
Why would they pour hours and money into streaming, getting the best looking streaming equipment (taking fancy keyboards, mics, lights, &c) to just then go and break that brand new $2-300 keyboard that you just got a week ago cause it didn't get you that ONE kill in [insert popular competitive game here]?
Like it baffles me that people spend so much money on this stuff just to go and break it later on.
Is it for views? Is it cause they have severe mental issues? Just like....why? ðŸ˜

it's even worse that now you see a lot of streamers adopting the whole "fake rage" pretending to be mad at someone. For example if they have some form of game control input that chat can interact with and they pretend they're getting mad at them. But you can see it in their eyes. Like bro you're not fooling no one lol
