    It's like super popular on twitch. I mean...I just see it as one of the most viewed games. Only LoL beats it. (Or it least it was a while ago.)

    I don't really get the popularity. I've never seen it outside of the video they just showed but it looks meh.

    A free giveaway for a 1080? http://www.pcgamingshow.com/giveaway/

    *gets infracted for advertising*

    What do you guys think, is it worth entering? They only ask for name, email address, and zip code. Doesn't seem too bad.

    I mean it does look good and the devs do seem to be committed but just doesn't interest me the slightest.
    I like watching the streams for it, but haven't played it myself.

    Lol the woman on the stream said it had an i7-7770K or something like that, but the actual PC has an i9-6950X. That's pretty funny, and it must sting for Intel that they advertized the wrong product.

    Also, the contest is only for Americans. Fuck that. They can give away $1 million as a bonus prize for the Grand Slam, but they can't ship a fucking computer?

    I don't post that often, and when I do it's often in bursts. I always lurk though.

    Twitch is seriously the best form of advertising a game can get. Why even dump millions into marketing.

    Give Sodapoppin or Kripp or these other 20-30k viewer streamers ten grand to get them to play your game for a week and watch the streamer viewer circle jerk kick in. Once the big time streamers move on from any game, it falls waaaaaaaay off on twitch. PUB will be no different.

    I signed up. I'd cannibalize the shit out of that and put it into my current case/setup that doesn't look ugly

    This Battlegrounds game is free for this week on Steam? I thought it was already free.

    Ten grand won't buy a lot of twitch stream time for the people in the 20-30k range, I don't think.

    I'm kinda curious how much that PC costs. Someone should do a PC Parts Ticker on it.

    Basically the best thing shown at the PC Gaming conference so far. (Aside from things that were announced during other conferences)

    This guy's accent + he's speaking so softly. I can't hear him.

    The host keeps interrupting him too because he can't think of answers quick enough.

    I wasn't giving an exact amount. It was just an example. The point still stands though. You can get more out of paying 3-4 streamers than you can of the other methods they use, like twitch ad advertising. 99.9999% of viewers use adblock.
