Welp, nevermind that. Finals was already annoying with the AI voices etc. Didn't realise it was the same team and they were still at it

I should have taken a closer look at the Arc Raiders steam page, I wasn't familiar it was the same people as The Finals

GrumpyMagician @grumpymagician.bsky.social · 10h

Watching a bunch of arc raiders stuff to see how it is, since I'm still a fair enjoyer of extraction shooters (tarkov, my toxic love) and ngl it's looking pretty tempting.

Apparently not a huge playtime in it atm, but more on full release so not sure whether I wanna wait

Honestly, Pragmata's been one I've felt will be a sleeper hit that catches a lot of people off guard, so I've been glad to hear it's doing solid

Also just a bunch of the visuals on it look so cool

My Confronting Myself cover from is finally out!

This games' soundtrack by the one and only @lena.fyi is amazing, and it was hard to pick just one song to work on. 😁

Either way, Hades time! It's been a bit but we're heading to the surface

Straight from the Twitch Partner Discord, posted on 10/10/25

If you lurk more than a couple of streams, you won't be counted as a viewer in any of them.

We’ve gotten a lot of questions about viewership and the impact of our viewbot mitigations. And, we’ve heard from some creators that they’ve observed unusual drops in their viewcounts. When we made updates to our viewbot detection tools earlier this year, our goal was to make sure that viewcounts represent actual viewership, and aren’t artificially inflated in any way. Having accurate viewcounts is important for streamers who are trying to build their audiences, and for the livestream industry more broadly.

We recognize that for a lot of our creators, Twitch is a livelihood, and we don’t take that lightly. Addressing viewbots is a balancing act — we want to identify artificial views without affecting real viewers, and that’s a constant tension. We continue to evolve our systems to get better at spotting and removing viewbots, while making sure we’re counting real views accurately. We really appreciate the feedback and questions, as they help us keep improving how we do this.

We’ve seen a lot of different theories about why some viewcounts may have shifted and want to address some of the most prominent directly.

There’s been a lot of conversation about how lurkers are counted. A lot of factors can impact viewership over time, including ad blockers, seasonality, and whether you recently hosted an event on your channel. After some investigation by our teams, we’ve identified one factor that may be impacting several streamers:
Some viewers use third party browser extensions to view streams.,
For example, with one plug in, you feed in your Twitch follower list, and when a streamer from that list goes live, the plug in opens a tab for that stream.
For years, we’ve counted a limited number of sessions per IP address towards viewcount. If you have a lot of streams (more than a normal viewer could reasonably watch) open in many different tabs, our systems may determine you are not actively watching, and you will not be counted in any of those streams as a viewer.
