xQc gets emotional after hitting massive Twitch milestone Streaming star Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel has gotten emotional over hitting 100 million total views on his Twitch channel, reflecting on his rise to stardom and the meaning of milestones. xQc\u2019s rise to the top of Twitch has been nothing short of meteoric. Over the two years, he has gone from an audience of hundreds to tens of thousands. Over 20,000 people tune into his stream every day, and he has around 25,000 subscribers on the platform. His mix of hot takes, good gameplay, and outgoing personality has made him a hit with the platform\u2019s regulars, even if they struggle to understand him at times. He\u2019s now one of the most watched individual streamers on Twitch, hitting the 100 million total views milestone on November 19, and worth millions to the platform. Stardom hasn\u2019t changed a single thing about the self-titled \u201cFrench-Canadian cucklord,\u201d but once in a while he even has to stop and smell the roses of success. On a November 20 stream, xQc broke down what it means to hit such massive numbers over the course of the year, and even got a bit emotional over the whole thing. While he\u2019s a firm believer in that numbers aren\u2019t everything, he thinks it\u2019s important to celebrate your achievements. \u201cListen chat, we don\u2019t get hooked up here on numbers too much \u2014 numbers don\u2019t really mean a lot,\u201d said xQc. \u201cWhen you think about numbers, you get detached and it creates a distance \u2014 you kind of lose touch. \u201cBut every once in a while, it\u2019s always okay to have a pit stop where you stop for like five seconds to look at and say \u201cit\u2019s a milestone.\u201d It\u2019s kind of therapeutic, a token of progress.\u201d Can\u2019t load the video below?

He once believed that every milestone was a limit, rather than a story of success, and that after he hit each individual one, he was bound to fail the next. \u201cI\u2019m not kidding, there was a time where I didn\u2019t like milestones at all because every time I reached a milestone I was like \u201cthat\u2019s it, that\u2019s it,\u201d\u201d he said.

There was no way someone would want to hang out with some French-Canadian cucklord playing main tank in a f*cking dead game.\u201d It wasn\u2019t just an earlier streamer thing either. When he was well onto his way into people\u2019s living rooms around the world, he was still worried that one day he\u2019d wake up and it would all be over. \u201cAt 2,000, I was like we\u2019ve done it, there was no way dude, it does not go up from here, and tomorrow it\u2019ll go down. Then we got 3,000, and 5,000, And every time there was another slice above, I always thought about that.\u201d However, he eventually hit a point where he just stopped believing in the numbers being a hurdle to trip on. Instead, they become a point of celebration every single time, and a great way to reflect and be grateful for his success. \u201cEven at like 15,000, 20,000, I always felt the same way, and it kinda made me realise that \u2014 I don\u2019t know, I wish I had some wisdom here. I guess sometimes, even if you can\u2019t see it, you can still push forwards and you\u2019ll get there regardless, you\u2019ve just gotta believe.\u201d There\u2019s a lot to look back on and be glad about, regardless of numbers and public criticism. He\u2019s put smiles on millions of faces around the world with his hilarious antics over the last three years, and that\u2019s something to be proud of regardless of numbers. It\u2019s unlikely he will ever hit that plateau he was so petrified of, and his reach will only grow further as he knocks down more milestones like this one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
