I like live streams but I wish they were not the main form of mcyt content. Or at least not starting to become that. Like it....really is not a sustainable way to do every single smp you ever make. A lot of people don't have time to catch streams and barely have time to watch vods as well (and most people only watch 1-5 streamers. Imagine watching MORE.) LIFE SERIES is a challenge for me and lots of others to get through, let alone several 2-7 hour long livestreams.

Plus some people are gonna stop watching because they're only there for the lore and they'd rather save time than skim through several streams just to find it yk? After a certain point condensing them down into 15-30 (maybe 40) minute videos and making lore summaries is a necessity or your gonna lose viewers. (ESPECIALLY if you have a large cast meaning more characters to impact each other and the plot)

Idk I follow a lot of streamers and there's like...less than 10 who I have ever/would sit through a full stream from them, lore happening or not.

#I am so tired of trying to catch multiple pirtaes streams to know any of the lore #Qsmp less so because I watch less streamers (and there's lore recaps out there)#+ I like watching the cubitos hang out more than I like having to skim thru 10+ vods of pirates just. Sailing for 4 hours #Some outsiders povs were a pain in the ASS to get through. I spent HALF of my summer break watching vods for that smp #There's also an issue of streamers not archiving vods so if you show up late you're screwed. Which videos and lore summaries partially solv #That issue. You don't have the full vod but at least you know the important stuff that happened #Idk I stopped hyperfixating and I quickly got very disillusioned with stream only content #After a certain point it just becomes unfair to expect people to watch as many streams as possible I think #ren posting #But what do I know I've just spent the last year+ of my life mainly consuming minecraft streams and no other content/s
