Lost Ark has dominated Twitch viewership since releasing on February 11. According to SullyGnome, it\u2019s been watched for approximately 150 million hours with an average of 211,000 viewers, which is impressive. Elden Ring is rising up the ranks too despite launching two weeks later on February 25. It\u2019s averaged more watch time and viewers than Lost Ark in that time, although it\u2019s still quite a way off from surpassing it. However, Asmon believes it will fall short of the mark. The reason is that he thinks it\u2019s less appealing for viewers to watch on stream because it has a lot of downtime, which he believes is the \u201cworst thing\u201d when steaming. \u201cI think Elden Ring is definitely a very watchable game, but you have to know how to stream it,\u201d said Asmon. \u201cElden Ring only becomes a great stream game when you don\u2019t care about the quality of the stream.\u201d He explained that Elden Ring has a lot of downtime, which isn\u2019t ideal for streaming. \u201cDowntime in streams is the worst thing that you can have. Elden Ring just has a lot of downtime. I feel like this is an objective fact, right?\u201d Asmon\u2019s viewership numbers support his claim. In the last 14 days, Asmongold has played 53 hours of Lost Ark to an average of 69,185 viewers; compared to 28 hours of Elden Ring at 58,872. \u201cI feel like my viewers have gone down whenever I\u2019ve gone from Lost Ark to Elden Ring. I don\u2019t care because the game\u2019s just so good, but these are what the numbers say,\u201d he added. He also believes Elden Ring is \u201cless watchable\u201d than other FromSoftware titles like Dark Souls 3. \u201cThey are more watchable because they have open-ended gameplay while simultaneously having directed gameplay.\u201d Either way, Elden Ring has been performing well on Twitch. However, it\u2019s still relatively new, so there\u2019s a good chance those numbers will decline in the coming weeks \u2014 especially when more streamers finish it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Asmongold explains why Elden Ring isn\u2019t as popular as Lost Ark on Twitch FromSoftware \/ YouTube: AsmongoldAsmongold explained why Elden Ring isn\u2019t as popular as Lost Ark in terms of Twitch viewership, claiming it\u2019s less watchable due to all the downtime, as evidenced by his own numbers.
