xQc explains why Streamlabs allowed him to break exclusive contract rules Twitch: xqcow \/ StreamlabsFelix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel has detailed his experience working with Streamlabs, explaining why the streaming software company allowed him to break out of his exclusive contract for a one-off broadcast. Streamlabs are a Logitech-owned livestreaming software company. Towards the end of 2021 they received heavy criticism for copying other people\u2019s branding and trading under the name \u2018OBS\u2019 without having ties to the original company. Watching a video on-stream titled \u2018The 2022 Twitch Iceberg explained\u2018 by Syrmaa, xQc reacted to a breakdown of issues that the company faced in recent months. As a former sponsor of his, xQc delved into the details of his exclusive contract. The biggest streamer on Twitch didn\u2019t hold back when describing how they failed to live up to expectations when attempting to host a media share broadcast. In the proposed event, donations would let viewers play videos directly to stream. A utility that Streamlabs lacked. After reaching out to the company to see if they could implement that feature xQc stated: \u201cAfter a while, they came back to me and they were like dude, you know what? Our sh*t is so garbage, we\u2019re gonna allow you to breach contract and use StreamElements just for the event.\u201d Pulling his punches as the video continued, Felix walked back his comments on the company. \u201cAll jokes aside, there are some good advantages to using it, they have good tech, there are advantages. Pick and choose.\u201d Comments in a Reddit thread discussing xQc\u2019s opinion heavily agreed with the inadequacies of the program. One user stated: \u201cThe only big streamers with Streamlabs are the ones that are paid. Everyone else uses StreamElements.\u201d Since finishing up with his exclusive contract, xQc has been using OBS to stream his content, leaving Streamlabs, and their issues, far behind. Having not missed a beat despite this partnership ending, xQc has continued to dominate Twitch at every turn, smashing viewership records and leaving little room for anyone else to catch up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
