Relic Twitch Streams

Relic should think about the image that they broadcast of themselves. A lot of people immediately assume Relic is incompetent when an employee is playing the game extremely poorly against AI.

Any stream should be either informative or entertaining, and as a game developer their stream is held to an even higher standard.

Relic should try to ensure that there is always quality gameplay being shown on their stream. They could cast high level automatch or tournament games if nobody skilled is available to play.

Some of the requests posted here would change the Relic stream into a once a quarter, 15 minute news segment. I do not believe this would be a good approach. Even with having nothing new to share, the streams are a form of community engagement and I moderately enjoy them.

I do feel things could be a bit more interesting if Kyle could convince some of the other staff members to come on stream and talk about wtf they do so the community can build a better appreciation for all the talent involved. Watching how maps get balanced, how Relic artists take photos and make them a digital thing, maybe a couple 'how to mod' segments etc etc. While everybody enjoys new and shiny there is still a fair amount of non-NDA breaking things that could be shared with the community that are interesting.

Also, maybe clearly identifying what is in the steam before hand so those community members who are looking for something specific can make an informed choice either to watch the stream or not.
