If I hadn't watched Vinesauce stream Hyrule Warriors, A Robot Named Fight and Hand of Fate 2, I never would have picked up those games. And fuck, I probably never would have gotten into Blur or King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard either - since Vinny flauts the copyrighted music rule and lets his VODs get muted.

Streamers can be effective tastemakers. If you like the personality and you like the look of the game they're playing, or if you've found a streamer with similar tastes to yourself and you trust their judgement enough to follow their purchasing habits, streamers can boost game sales by exposing their audience to things they might have never taken a chance on otherwise.

I bet this guy would say that buying secondhand games is akin to piracy, too.
