Grab your favorite superhero outfit for Dispatch! Tonight, on The Stevetendo Show, we’re starting something brand new. Swing by The Stevetendo Show this evening for the start of a Dispatch playthrough. Things have been a little rocky for Dispatch regarding the Nintendo Switch 2 version with regard to censorship. Be that as it may, your old pal Stevetendo is here to fill in the blanks as well as provide the “moans” when needed. Dispatch reminds me a lot of the old Telltale Games, where you have options, and those decisions made by the player alter what happens. I have heard that each episode of the game takes about an hour, so fingers crossed we’ll be able to get through the first two episodes this evening. I was very close to becoming a 9-1-1 operator/dispatcher when I was working security, so we’ll see how close to home Dispatch gets for me. Set to go live at 5 p.m. PDT/8 p.m. EDT, join The Stevetendo Show for the start of Shacknews’s Game of the Year for 2025, Dispatch! Always check your headset before shift, folks!©AdHoc Studio Shackers who want to join in on the fun can head over to the Shacknews Twitch

If you have ever tried to start a Twitch channel, you know the struggle. You spend hours setting up your OBS overlays, you buy a ring light that blinds you every time you look left, and you curate the perfect “Starting Soon” playlist. You go live, full of energy, ready to be the next big variety streamer. And then… silence. The viewer count hovers at 1 (and you’re pretty sure that 1 is just your phone monitoring the chat). Welcome to the Twitch “grind.” It’s a rite of passage for every streamer, from the casual gamer to the aspiring e-sports pro. But in a world where visibility equals currency, streamers are increasingly looking for ways to hack the system. This has led to the rise of a controversial but booming underground industry: the  twitch view bot . But what exactly are these tools? Are they the secret weapon for live stream growth, or are they a one-way ticket to a banned account? Let’s geek out on the tech, the ethics, and the reality of automated growth in the streaming world. The Algorithm: Why Streamers Getting Desperate? To understand why anyone would use a bot, you have to understand the Gamification of

Brookhaven police arrested 19-year-old rapper and Twitch streamer Aspen Easterling, who performs under the name Aspen Kartier, after a video showing her allegedly abusing a puppy surfaced on social media. Fox5 Atlanta reported that the department received numerous complaints about the videos which appeared to depict Easterling hitting a 3-month-old Maltipoo on a Twitch stream. Following these allegations, officers executed a search warrant at a residence on the 1000 block of Town Boulevard at around 9:35 p.m. last Friday, and, Easterling was subsequently arrested and taken to the DeKalb County Jail. "The police department said it received numerous complaints about the videos allegedly showing 19-year-old Aspen Easterling, also known as Aspen Kartier, hitting the dog on a Twitch stream," Fox5 Atlanta reported. The puppy involved in the incident was located by officers and appeared to be in good health at the time of the discovery. Easterling now faces animal cruelty charges, and DeKalb County Animal Control has taken custody of the dog as a safeguard. WSBTV relayed that Easterling's Twitch channel has been made temporarily unavailable as it violates community guidelines, while PETA expressed condemnation for her actions by posting a clip of the viral videos on their platform.

"After six years of exclusive streaming on Twitch, today I am doing my first live stream on YouTube," said Ibai Llanos. Anything he says immediately becomes news, but some statements cause real earthquakes. It wasn't his first encounter with the red play button platform; a year earlier, the Bilbao native had hinted at his intentions to land in the ecosystem that created the profession of which he is the undisputed king: "Those 900 hours I was investing in Twitch, I will now invest in YouTube. It's less demanding. I want to spend more time with my family, take care of myself, and work on projects that truly motivate me," he said back then. But on January 17, the definitive announcement came, putting a face and eyes to a trend that was growing louder and could be summarized in a statement so repeated that we could call it viral without fear of being wrong: "I'm coming back to YouTube." "Content creators are indeed returning to YouTube. It was easy to hear four or five years ago that the platform had become outdated, but there has been a pendulum swing that has brought it back to a leadership position," confirms Luis Calvo

It's 2026. I'm looking at my Twitch profile, and it reminds me that I haven't streamed in January. 35 followers, all real people. The statistics remind me of what I have neglected. It means I have to look beyond the dashboard and ask myself a few questions. Truth be told, I haven't streamed in months, not since August. I told myself that I would, with all the new games coming out in 2025 and ready to test. Heck, I've even managed to avoid spoilers for Deltarune's third and fourth installments. And yet, with all the chaos that ensued in 2025 from the real world, gaming, and the speculative fiction industry, setting up the area where I stream has become harder. It's not because that area is in our guest room. No, the reason is more emotional: I streamed for myself and other people. Now I need to stream for myself again this year and have fun regardless of who comes to watch. Spelunky. Source: Steam. Why Do I Like Streaming? I enjoy streaming on Twitch because it allows me to connect with my friends. Part of the reason I streamed Spelunky for so long, despite taking several years to beat

Jynxzi now sits at the top of Twitch’s subscription chart, ahead of an AI VTuber rival © Instagram jynxzi Jynxzi has once again climbed to become the most-subscribed creator on Twitch, overtaking Neuro-sama, an AI VTuber that had recently held the top spot and stirred a lot of discussion about the future of streaming. AI Briefly Takes Over Twitch Earlier this month, Twitch saw something that felt straight out of a sci-fi movie. The most subscribed channel on the platform was no longer run by a human, but by Neuro-sama, an AI VTuber created and managed by Vedal987, who had climbed to over 160,000 subscribers at the peak of her run. The Vtuber model and AI voice of Neuro-sama live streaming on twitch © twitch vedal987 Thanks to a massive Hype Train from her community, Neuro-sama surged past every human streamer and became number one for a short time.

PlaqueBoyMax sees rapping as surprisingly similar to going live on Twitch, and his online community has shaped his approach to concerts. In a recent interview with Billboard News , Max reflected on his experiences performing as a rapper after completing four live shows, revealing he views each performance as an extension of his streaming world. "I've done four shows. First of all, the thing with doing the show, I always, like, I tell my chat, this was chat," Max explained. "This was, like, you know, the Twitch stream, you know what I'm saying? Have them on the side. They're the ones typing when the stream is live." For Max, the transition from streaming on Twitch to performing in front of real-life crowds felt natural. "It's like doing a stream, like shows, live performances, concerts, it's just like the Twitch streams," he continued. "So when I get on and did my 1st show, I'm like, oh, this, like, the audience is just my chat in real life. You know what I'm saying?" The rapper described the experience as exhilarating, noting how different, yet familiar, it feels to share that energy in person. "So it's like being able to experience it altogether
