CoD fans heartbroken as Vanguard gets same number of Twitch viewers as people sleeping Activision \/ PexelsCall of Duty players are experiencing the full range of emotions as Vanguard\u2019s Twitch viewership plummets. Now, it\u2019s reached the point that the game has as many viewers as\u2026 people literally sleeping on stream. Twitch is an interesting place and its viewership can\u2019t necessarily tell you everything you need to know about a game\u2019s popularity. But it\u2019s still an easy way to gauge interest in a title and see how it stands up to other games. While no one would be surprised if ASMR or hot tub streams were outperforming a multiplayer shooting game, Vanguard is facing stiffer, sleepier competition. As people noticed, Twitch viewers seem just as interested in watching streamers asleep as they are in CoD\u2019s latest game. With a modest 3.1k apiece, it seems that Vanguard tied with the \u201cI\u2019m Only Sleeping\u201d category.

This isn\u2019t the most exciting news for CoD fans, who were quick to note their heartbreak. FaZe Kalei, who has considered swapping to Apex Legends herself, mentioned how Black Ops 3 used to get \u201c30k viewers constantly.\u201d Remarking on that regression, she said that \u201cs**t\u2019s sad now.\u201d Popular Warzone streamer Aydan, who swapped to Apex Legends recently, also chimed in. The top-tier earner simply threw down a laughing emoji, joining those who find the state of the CoD franchise laughable. It\u2019s worth noting that \u201cI\u2019m Only Sleeping\u201d is, in fact, a video game \u2013 but its category was largely co-opted by streamers who sleep on stream. So, with that in mind, viewers were just as interested in sleeping streamers as they were in Vanguard streamers. At the moment, the CoD franchise is at a bit of a crossroads. There are questions about the games\u2019 direction and company\u2019s treatment of its employees. These concerns may need to be addressed for Vanguard to hit a redemption arc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
