Just going back to that Warframe stream, Totalbiscuit apparently helped save that company. From what I've seen people say, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy before he did a video on the game. His video garnered enough interest in people that they had a big influx of players and backers. It's now a five-year-old game and seems to still be going.

This wasn't even unique. He brought a big influx of players into League of Legends and Path of Exile. One Finger Death Punch devs stated that they were planning on the game being a financial failure the day his video came up:

A game called Renowned Explorers said the same; they even call him a savior:

And he was one of the big early pushers for Dark Souls and other Japanese games coming to PC.

He's also one of the major contributers to PC gaming, in general, coming back to be as big as it is now over the last decade.
