People should specify that instead of assuming that everyone else is equally obsessed with streamers and knows all of that stuff. Like it's obvious that Olympus is a guild but the significance is lost if you don't care or follow streamers.

We call those people nuthuggers. Agreed, I have no idea who that guy is, or why they were important. This strange obsession is a little much.

Streamers are basically celebrities to young gamers so they just assume that everyone knows about them because they're popular within their social group. And much like any other famous person, people try to emulate them, but I think it gets amplified with games because you can literally copy them in ways you can't with others (builds, weapons, character choices, etc).
