Can you imagine a show where they left in all the outtakes, were talking to their sponsors half the time, and spending another 25% showing the staff trying to calm down the kids they for some reason brought to work with them? That's what streaming is.
It's more about fellating people who give them money and talking to the mental 10 year olds spamming in the chat, than making watchable content.
As LPs, at this point, no. I only ever really watched three of them as it was and Marriland went basically full time garbage, ShadyPenguinn went to mobile trash, and Nickaboo92 (whom I found Shady through when he had less than 1K subs) embraced his bullshit religion, disappeared for 2 years as part of it and then came back and got married, basically exiting YouTube permanently except mostly failmeme videos (when he was playing Reborn in a thorough walkthrough manner similar to Marriland with the main series which is what drew me in).
Realistically I don't watch much in the way of LPs at all anymore, though, I guess. Last thing remaining were a few Minecraft ones but the Hermitcraft ones have mostly been trashing all the time now making the episodes garbage because 100 things pop up between episodes that'll never be explained except "I did it while I was trashing".
And the only one I liked outside of that (BdoubleO100) disappeared to trashing when he flipped out about the demonetization last year, and then just disappeared almost entirely after his most recent kid died shortly after birth a few months back (randomly uploaded a couple a month or so ago and then disappeared again).
So yeah... Mostly back to what I was watching in 2010 now - atheist and tech shit (some of which is gaming related but mostly not as the ones who had much to do with it fucked off to Twitch).
