>>34604271I find it funny how you people somehow ignore the fact that actors have been emotionally imprinting on audience members since the days of Globe Theatre
It's like you're living in this alternate reality where you only want to see what your headcanon wants it to, and it's all the more funny that you are doing it while calling out others for seeing things that aren't there
Streaming, at it's core, is parasocial.
Are you interacting with chat? Parasocial.
Are you reading donations? Parasocial.
Are you posting top donators on the screen? Parasocial.
Are you running a discord community for your fans? Parasocial.
Are you reacting to content that your fans made for you? Parasocial.
Are you streaming for 2+ hours and don't want the fans to leave? Parasocial.
Are you setting channel goals, sub goals? Parasocial.
Every streamer does this and you call it entertainment, despite you being in the parasocial trap all a long.
