Overwatch 2 doing surprisingly well on Twitch at the moment?

General Discussion
1

152K viewers not bad for a Monday!

:astonished:

2

World Cup is on. (the views were similar yesterday too)

But I was wondering when the “well done” threads would come, given how quick people are too unnecessarily jump on them for “low” numbers.

Must be because of the orange skin drops…

Usually there isn’t much interest in the World Cup as it’s seen as a minor event relative to the OWL…

In fact if you look on YouTube it’s getting barely any views so it must be those orange skins that people really want…

Who knew orange was such a popular colour…

Why would you watch it on YouTube when you can watch it and get a skin. Once the skins are gone, people either move to YouTube or stay with their favourite so called content creator (I await the day they actually create something).

51k viewing across the main OW channels on Twitch and YouTube isn’t bad at all. Especially for a group stage that no one cares about.

Why isn’t YZSNA on the Saudi team though… Did his activities catch up with him?

Yep that sound like it. People will turn on twitch in the background to claim free stuff like that. No need to actually watch it. Its basicly viewbotting except the players are given a reward to get the view numbers

I only watch when finland is in and playing, won’t be many more matches though as i think we’re against south korea next XD

We fought our way in but i’ll be surprised if we keep going after that one.

Team UK is gonna win!

:uk: :partying_face:

8

As long as the winner isn’t sweden, i’m content.

except they made the 14 hr skin impossible to get. I watched both days from start to finish and only hit 89% completion.

Might be a bug with the drops system again. Seems to happen all the time.

200K at the moment!

With all of the interest being shown in the game now might be a great time to turn things around for the better! Hopefully they don’t mess up this huge opportunity!

(Stick the game onto various cloud gaming platforms for one thing!)

:smirk_cat: :+1:

It’s the semi-finals. Of course it generates some interest.

(What is this match up?!?! 2 - 2 right now! I thought we would have lost 3 - 0, 3 -1 at best but we could make a reverse sweep?!?! What is this?!)

Edit: nope, going for bronze now
