I’ve mentioned in a few prior posts that I was looking for EVE Online streamers to watch on twitch – it tends to be a mixed bag, I’m not a fan of loud streams as I use them to relax, I like to lurk, and I don’t enjoy the very (VERY) “bro” like culture that typically stems from EVE Online. That being said, there are a few streamers I have found that I enjoy watching, and one such streamer is known as ‘Steve’ and his channel is ‘Steve’s Haven‘. He runs a lot of giveaways for people, the more subscriptions in the channel (gifted, etc) the more he gives away.
Last night I was hanging out in the channel – and for the first time ever, I WON! I was so excited! A billion ISK is no small amount, and I was very thankful and excited. I probably used up all of my luck for the year.
I know there’s a lot of controversy around EVE and how they treat their content creators lately. Some folks are frustrated, feel like they can’t grow, are not appreciated by CCP, etc. I hope that these people know how valued their streams are to people like me. Chaos1298 is another streamer that I enjoy watching, along with Erst, and MarkeeDragon (Oz_Eve, also, of course). I’ve been thinking about streaming my own adventures but I don’t think it’s in the cards, I have far too much anxiety and I really dislike people constantly telling me I should fit my ships THIS way or why am I doing THIS etc. I am not a fantastic EVE player, it’s just a game I really enjoy (and I’m good at making ISK in it).
Anyway. It was a really awesome night, that ISK is going to be put to some good things and I should have some more posts coming up about what I’ve been up to in game since details have been a bit sparse.
As always, fly your way! o7
