Twitch Viewers Watched The Most Hours In Platform History In November

Winners of Apple ’s App Store Best of 2020 were announced today with Among Us _ and Minecraft _ taking first place in key categories. Both games have been around for some time - Minecraft originally released on mobile platforms nearly 10 years ago and Among Us in 2018 - but the two games remain popular today. Among Us has been especially notable this year as its popularity unexpectedly skyrocketed years after its launch, capturing the imagination of many fa


While the anticipated Caves & Cliffs expansion won’t be out in its full glory until sometime next year, Mojang has announced that a couple of minor new features included in the update are already available for the latest beta of Minecraft Bedrock Edition . These include powder snow and one of the new mobs - adorably offensive goats. These mischievous animals will jump around mountain areas, but what’s important is their angry behavior as they are capable of charging into other mobs and players. Upon the collision, goats send their victims in quite a freefall, which might be especially dangerous on the edge of a cliff. Powder snow is obviously less dramatic, but it adds a nice touch to the overall snow mechanics in the game. It behaves somewhat similar to a block of cobweb as it reduces fall damage to zero, but entities such as players and mobs slowly sink in blocks of snow. This can be easily countered by equipping leather boots, but perhaps Mojang will also top that by adding a useful enchantment when Caves & Cliffs update finally relea


Despite the issues that have been happening to Twitch lately, whether it’s about the current DMCA scandal or that they’re trying to become more inclusive with modern language, there’s no denying that no matter what, viewers are still turning in to watch. Twitch has become a major entertainment hub for people who want to see their favorite gamers and or influencers, all the way up there with the likes of YouTube . And it seems that it’s not going anywhere for a very long t


It’s unquestionably nice that Mojang decided to let its community test some of the features included in the Caves & Cliffs expansion. It is expected to add tons of new content being arguably the most innovative and rich update in the history of **Minecraft ** , but it is still months away - and players want something to fool around right now. While goats and powder snow are nowhere near the most anticipated changes included in the update, they are nonetheless exciting enough to distract the community from a potential content draught until Caves & Cliffs finally sees the light of


It's easy to get bored by a **Minecraft ** world when it becomes uninteresting to explore, but some seeds are diverse enough to encourage nearly endless expeditions into their landscapes. This can come from a wide variety of biomes present, a multitude of rare structures, or plentiful resources available for you to investigate. The best seeds for exploring have many rabbit holes to dig into as you p


According to the analysis of six consecutive live streams, Dream managed to successfully trade gold ingots for Ender Pearls 42 out of 262 Piglin barters. He also received 211 Blaze Rods after killing 305 Blazes. These results are considerably higher than Minecraft's base odds, as Blazes have a 50% chance to drop Blaze Rods when killed, and each Piglin barter only has a 5% chance of netting an Ender Pearl. The analysis paper goes into detail as to how unfeasible these number are, with the team concluding that the odds of having Dream's Ender Pearl and Blaze Rod luck is 1 in 177 billion and 1 in 113 billion, respectively. After considerable analysis of Dream's runs, the Minecraft Speedrunning Team declared that Dream had to have modified his nintendo switch Game guide|https://switchmixzone.com/ in some way to receive the drop rates displayed in his r


This isn’t the first time that Twitch has been reaching some major steps on its platform. Throughout the year there has been a steady uptick of people coming to the popular entertainment platform. Back in October, there was a massive surge in hours that resulted in a new all-time peak, but it seems that November has already taken over that slot with a new rec


In the new State of Stream from November 2020 at Stream Elements , Twitch reported that while there was only a .5% month-over-month increase, it was still enough to bring in another milestone of nearly 1.7 billion hours watched. While some games did experience a drop in viewership, like Among Us or Grand Theft Auto 5, new games saw a major increase in views with releases that sparked viewership, like Minecraft’s Star Wars DLC that became available to purchase. That resulted in a 60% change in viewership for that particular game. Just Chatting has kept its number-one spot among the most-viewed content, with nearly 228 million hours watched – but that is an all-time high. There has also been a new streamer that has topped the charts over xQcOW, and that is Gaules, who has now sat atop the streaming charts three times. Another new streamer that has made his way into the top 10 is Sykkuno, popularized with his lets plays of Minecraft and Among
