Does anyone else kill TTVs first?

Is it just me? Or are we not allowed to talk about this? Someone trying to make money off beating me in a video game disgusts me so I always put on the sweatiest builds available and tunnel/camp them out.

    Nah I dont focus in lobby and in match I have survivor names hidden so I dont even know if theres TTV until game ends

    No why would I treat them differently because they are streaming? I did watch their vods to see their perspective of the game when I was trying to get better at killer while playing as fair as possible. If you do I think you're kinda weird tbh.

    One is monetized. One is not. I have never until recently had people in my video games who are demanding an audience. I don't get paid if I beat them. They get paid if they beat me. I have a day job so the dollar amount is trivial, but it's more the point.

    I don't care who is TTV. I am just chasing survivor i found first. And then this is going with this way. I am really not looking survivor names usually.

    Am I the only one that leaves them until last? In my experience they tend to not only be the best loopers in the average lobby, they also seem to focus less on gens.

    I can't believe people understand streaming so little, this is some boomer level takes man

    I treat TTVs the same way I treat everyone else, and by the same rules.

    You need to beat them because you think that will hurt their revenue or I got it wrong?

    You don't like people who make money playing video games?


    If I am correct you are only hurting yourself with that mindset. Just play the game for fun without thinking about what kind of life other players lead.

    All I do is watch back their vod and see if I made them mad. Oddly cathartic to see a salty twitch streamer mad BC of me

    I feel that says much more about your mind than anything else.

    TTV streamers are not automatically monsters, and most I've come across have been fine. Very few are demons; non-TTV streamers are the same.

    The word "disgust" sounds very aggressive for such a petty thing. I'd look into that issue really.

    I treat everyone the same.

    You know some of our friends on the forums TTV.

    So you could be tunneling out some one you just had a fun discussion with.

    No, I'm in agreement with @Marigoria

    Am I the only one that jump into their stream saying "Hi, lets play fair & square" then have a record of my perspective then sending the vid to them?

  • Dennis_van_eijk

    So basically just because they make money out of their hobby (gaming in general) is making you disgusted about it?

    I think you have some terrible issues mate and think you might need to see a therapist or something.

    I wonder tho, how do you behave on your job if i may ask?

    Do you destroy everything in the building because they make money of of you?😉🤔

    TBH I tend to just avoid their lobbies. Twitchies always seem to be surrounded by their bully squad, or they end up just being super toxic if they lose. I have no interest in being a part of their #########.

    Not at all, I don't give them any special treatment either way but I actually would prefer to not eliminate them early, as I quite like going back and watching their VOD's of our match from their perspective. I learn a lot from watching to see where I went wrong and what I could have done better or what I did well

    The fact that you're mad about them making content and money off of beating you is confusing to me.

    If that's the case, do you also not watch movies, TV, or Youtube videos? Because those are all things that make their money directly from you. Athletes make their money off of beating other people on a live broadcast. Are you against the entire concept of televised sports, then?

    If you have that mindset, do you want to hear something very spooky? You've probably gone against more streamers without their link in their name than streamers with their link in their name. So you better start somehow killing everyone first (somehow), you never know they could be a streamer you're giving "free content" afterall.

    Anyway, only more reason to hide all identifying information (names, profile access) that isn't directly relevant to the actual game in a mechanical way (survivors picked, items they bring).

    Don't have much to say but you're completely correct they are only streaming in hopes to make a quick buck.

    i kill them on sight or ignore them if there too strong

    Nope, but if I win against them I like to see the vod afterwards.

  • AnneBonny

    same honestly, if they're on another platform or didn't stick around for the endgame i like to stop by and say gg sometimes too

  • tortrader
    tortrader Member Posts: 539

    I let them go so that I can watch the game in their channel afterwards and learn how I could have played better against the team.

    I always get sad when it was a fun match, and then I go check them out but they weren't live.

  • Xendritch

    This is like Dave Chappelle's playa haters' ball come to life.

    Just being spiteful and petty for the sake of it.

  • GeneralV
    GeneralV Member Posts: 10,625

    Most Streamers I've faced were always around for the Endgame to use it as advertisement, so that is usually not an issue.

    But, when you win, it is always nice to see the vod.

  • Nathan13
    Nathan13 Member Posts: 6,702

    but seriously there's more important things to worry about than playing against someone with TTV in their name, it's just people who wanna advertise and grow their channel.

    Funny enough the hardest ttvs to face are often the ones that don't have ttv in there name or use a completely difrent name so people don't dodge lobby because they are really really good

    I too find myself consistently disappointed that my guidance counselor lied and told me I couldn't make money playing video games.

    I'm not sure how taking it out on people who are actively living their goals out helps, but if it makes you feel better I guess you do you.

    Personally I'm not into the idea of potentially throwing a match just because some kid is streaming a game for his classmates, hoping to avoid having to get a traditional career. I say, good luck to them. More streaming means more cloud storage, more servers needed by the companies that pay me to do my day job, so it's win/win.

    As was already pointed out, streamers who actually make a living are well known enough that they don't need to add TTV to their name, and nobody is watching them because they win. They are either entertaining, or they go unwatched.

    Either way, I hope you find a fulfilling life soon, so you don't need to validate your life choices by hounding kids in a game for the sin of trying to make their dreams a reality.
