but how will this affect the socioeconomic status of the fortnite island

It makes me curious though. If Twitch made these mistakes as a last-ditch effort to reduce losses, how sustainable/scalable is Kick’s current strategy? Twitch is backed by Amazon, which, I assume, would allow them to store and distribute content at a discounted price via AWS. It’ll be curious seeing whether Kick will eventually become like Twitch if they deem the losses from their pro-consumer policies as too debilitating.

So Kick straight up paid him a ton of money, didn't force him to only stream on their platform, and has a better split on subs? Seems like they're trying to show off how they wanna treat their creators. And if this is how they are then it's a great look for them.

@@UsernameUsername0000 💯

@@UsernameUsername0000 I don't think it's necessarily an issue of profitability, but one of growth. If Twitch is (was?) at the top of the streaming industry, then achieving the annual growth that investors expect is gonna be a near impossible task, which would explain their recent actions a lot. If it were merely down to profitability, I have no doubt that Amazon would keep sinking money into Twitch just as a way of quashing any potential competition. But lack of growth? That's what sends the corporate goblins into absolute panic mode.

@@UsernameUsername0000 It could also be that Twitch is just severly mismanaged and burns money left and right without any returns. We've seen how idiotic Twitch is acting so I wouldn't be surprised. Problem is, when Kick fills the spot, as soon as they secured themselves, they will take scummy actions. The best situation would be for twitch to get its shit together for some healthy competition but that take big internal reorganization.

Lmao. Theoretically speaking, he got paid 100million to “live”.

He won’t be streaming on Twitch when it’s finalised. I’ve noticed KICK care a lot more about exclusivity. He may hit live on Twitch to promote KICK streams but I don’t see him streaming on Twitch for the next 2 years. Edit: Yes, they say it’s non-exclusive for the contract, but that’s just a coverup. It actually makes KICK look more attractive to viewers and upcoming streamers if people believe big streamers are streaming there non-exclusively.

twitch recently added an exclusivity clause which prevents anyone from streaming on twitch and other platforms at the same time. He won't be streaming on twitch if this is true.

yeah it really is smart and it'll be interesting to see how twitch handles it if he does what charlie suggested and just do like 30 minute twitch streams and be like ok i'm gunna be on kick if you guys wanna come hang out!

Nuts when comparing ninjas peak vs xqc

Ninja's viewers were all temporary. Everyone knew it, even at that time. Xqc has been the biggest streamer for like 5 years now, and no one gave him recognition, neither twitch or the streamer awards or anyone for that matter. Kick was smart and saw the window to get loyal long time twitch veterans to their platform. They also outclassed the revenue split so people would choose to go there. All smart decisions. I would be very surprised if kick didnt absolutely win this battle.

I feel like we're missing something. Like it's 95/5 until he earns 100 mil from it. There's no way they're just giving him a 100 mil paycheck, that's absurd

​@@moonasha No, it's 95/5 for anyone on the platform who streams. Google it. You can start streaming right now on kick and each sub gives you 95% of the revenue from each sub, with kick taking 5%. XQC get's 100 million dollars upfront the day the contract enacts, which is soon. He also get's to keep 100% of the 95/5 split on top of the contract money.

@@ShadeofGaz absolutely

​@@ShadeofGazsad 🤡

Before you start thinking he's a crafty operator, consider the fact that xqc took much of this "$100m deal" in kick options, that are in practice worth close to nothing. I think his manager made the deal with the motive of his own publicity. And it worked. But xqc will probably never see most of the $100m in his bank account. The manager himself is known among content creators as a slimy con artist.

it probably will fail like Mixer. Kick has already fostered a seedy reputation, with incredibly poor moderation, gambling ties, the cocky dudebro PR, and working with people like Ice Poseidon and Adin Ross. it's becoming something of an alt-tech equivalent for those too trashy, edgy, or inflammatory for Twitch.

Disgusting genshin pfp

@@iMoD190 nah, it still very new and has only been going up and has enough money to keep going. It also joined at the right time where twitch has lost all trust and people are starting to look for alternative so they would pick kick as it has good benefits

@@iMoD190 Nope this is for from wrong. I do agree having complete freedom is risky but it’s already more popular and more user friendly than mixer. Mixer put all the cash for Ninja. Kick already has much more bigger audience and twitch new rules and banning people they don’t like and not banning fairly has boosted kick overall. Mixer was at a bad time because Twitch was not in a bad position but rn twitch is on edge because of how bad they been and changing the split is really killing them.

I’m not familiar with Kick, but what I heard about it before this was that it’s a cesspool for streams of SA and streamers harassing people in public or just guys jerking off and adin ross spiraling, idk how true those things are. they may be trending in a different direction with an influx of better streamers so I just hope it doesn’t become the platform for cancerous streams

The best part is that XQC is literally the worst reactor ever.

But, then I realized by watching other smaller reactors that XQC literally doesn't react to anything ever... So, I still don't get the hype that he has when he is the worst at what he does. I think the reason I was so drawn to him was because everyone else was. Once I realized that I stopped watching him and found all of reacting videos less and less appealing. Also kinda feels bad that my view is going to reacting streamers or videos rather than the video creator themselves.
