Shroud Talks Future of Twitch Following YouTube Acquisitions


Popular Twitch streamer Shroud has certainly been a part of a departure from Twitch in the past, as he signed an exclusive deal with now-defunct Microsoft streaming platform Mixer a few years ago, and is now sharing his thoughts on the recent wave of Twitch streamers leaving for other platforms, such as YouTube.
Shroud doesn’t believe there is such a thing as killing off Twitch, despite the recent hits.
“Yeah when there is a transition and somebody moves to another platform some follow and some stay,” Shroud explained during a recent stream (h/t DOTEsports). “I don’t think there is such a thing as killing Twitch, I mean… Twitch is so big.”
Shroud then went on to compare the Twitch model to YoutTube, and did elude to a potential competitor coming down the road. But he explained his belief that even new competition won’t kill off Amazon’s streaming platform.

With our powerful marketing structure, and our community of creators who create diverse content across a number of platforms, our mission is to create a space for fan film content creators, indie film creators, and extended content creators that want to build visibility, improve networking, and build more connections within the content creation industry.
Much like our Content Creator Directory (aka the Stream Directory) we will be providing visitors direct access to content creators of this niche within the Gamactica platform, including previews of their work.
While we will be working with creators who make content in all genres, we will be really pushing the horror genre hard, due to our partnership with horror news website Fright Nerd, and the Fright Nerd Podcast which will be making it’s return soon. Through this partnership we will be able to expand on our benefits with exclusive interviews, trailer releases, and more via the Fright Nerd website.”
