I hate when streamers only test game

[Quake Nukem]

Like let's be honest here most of these streamers truly don't really play the games they playtest well and don't really go in to actually break/test things. I understand as a dev and publisher it showcases the game to thousands of people easily but, man does it suck. I miss when you had to sign up and no matter if your a streamer or content creator or what not everyone had to sign up and got treated the same.

I cant even watch streams anymore because iam way to hyped watching others play but i cant... And kinda sad, waiting to see buy icon every single morning...

It's extremely predatory and scummy. They clearly aren't there to playtest, but only show off and market. I actually refuse to support devs that do this, and that list gets bigger each year. For some crazy reason they think this type of campaign is good for their product.

so many say more streamers seem to use cheats nowa days. like in call of duty games
so if many streamers are let in only. they have instant access to create narsty 3rd party apps even before the game is out. i bet there are people in the playtest with cheats already.
