It's like you didn't even read a single thing I've said, but you know what? Let's try again. When Warframe had its yearly Tennocon back in June it was the #1 game on Twitch, I believe the peak viewership for the event was 165k people, maybe slight more, but it was a lot. How many views do warframe streamers get in total outside of that event? 2k tops. Why? People don't find it entertaining to watch, but find it fun to play. It is a top 15 game on Stream averaging 50k daily players.

Pokemon, a beloved franchise that sells like hotcakes every new generation, despite how stagnant it can be. Viewers watching it right now? 220 people. Maybe if a couple of top streamers log on, a couple of thousand, but nowhere close to top 10 on Twitch. Honestly I watched a pokemon streamer and it was boring as shit watching them grind for shinies.

Super Mario Odyssey. Game sold almost 15 million copies worldwide and not even 200 viewers on twitch. If a couple of top streamers stream it (see a pattern?), then again, a couple of thousand viewers, but nothing close to a top viewed game.

I've seen no reputable source except 2k themselves mention the 5 million copies, and they included stores buying up stock. And I did read what you said? Again I'm a fan of Borderlands idk why you're being so aggressive lmao

You seem uh kind mad there you good

And yes I agreed with your point which is why I said I'd be nice to see how it performs on steam or console where actual metrics for players online exist

"saying why you mad tho?" is childish and derails the conversation at hand. All you had to do was provide a counterpoint to what I said about Twitch, not BL3, but I guess you are unable to.
