Twitch live stream game plays are a new, affordable way to experience gaming.

This project highlights the rise of live streaming as a means to distribution and promotion. Through the case study of Twitch, the project launches an examination into the phenomenon of streaming as a new method of storytelling, the streamers being the cyber dramatist/narrator. There are three types of streams: the professional, the hedonist, and the companion. Streamers each experience the same game in different ways and their commentary changes how viewers perceive the game.
