This made me laugh...

Speaking from observation in my limited bubble, I imagine, that a lot of people „watching“ these streams aren’t actually paying attention.
It‘s like when people used to leave the TV running in the background for company or distraction.
Still, though, you have to admit these dudes are producing absolute trash for cash and it actually works. The whole thing is incredibly inane and overall pretty remarkable.

I don't think Mike Yarwood was a particularly good GM either...

And yes... I run much less crunchy rules, and this is *precisely* why.
Like, they look up the silence spell during the woman's turn despite the purpose and effect being quite clear. Dude with beard groans about how long she's taking (nice... Single out the female player)
Dude with beard's turn comes up and there's a four-way discussion about whether he can move between multi-attacks. It drags on for ages, nobody actually looks stuff up, and Colville refuses to make a ruling.
100k watchers.

My characters are all gentle suffusions of loveliness characterised by pacifism and a lack of guile

@Taskerland I think that's a bit person by person not even table by table. I know people who hate speaking in first person and people who love "the bit". You can't enforce that at the table with proscribing against some player styles. I think bringing it all together is the GM's job. That's part of the director role. "Tim likes pretending he is a Piglen Lord, Tony wants to make plans, Poppy wants to do maps of her house, and Ian is a prick" you just juggle it to maximise the groups enjoyment.
