Blacking out screens or covering the majority of your screen is an absolute disgrace to the viewing experience and a plague of a trend that was started somewhere along the way, that unfortunately, many have followed. Day 1's used to be such a unique and cool experience for viewers and developers. Now, it's not so much the same. Be real - if something like Niobe Labs happened today, do you think it'd be the same community event that it was when it actually happened years ago? No way. Folks would cover shit/mute/etc. so that they could try and get the first clear. They want the recognition. The more that leaders set this example of blacking out/etc., the more others will follow. I sincerely feel bad for the viewers of Day 1's now and the overall viewing experience. Everything used to feel like a collective, now it feels shitty. I don't think Bungie should require anything, as it's not their place to control others' content. However, I do feel that it would do some good if they even but mentioned something like "If you stream, it would be nice to keep in mind those watching you." All creators have fans that love their shit. You are their entertainment. They support you every day. It should be about you and about them. It's a community. What service are you providing by blacking out your entire screen and muting? You're just hurting yourself. It's terrible. It never used to be like that. I also firmly believe that any team that has EVER won a World First in Destiny has NOT done it because they covered their screen or muted. If you're just better than everyone else and you're gonna win... you're gonna win. You don't need that shit. At this point, just don't even fucking stream. Go mooch some ad revenue and subs from somewhere else. Look, if you and the crew wanna mute up and huddle in Discord and talk about things throughout your run, that's fine. It's whatever. Huddle up. Discuss lightbulbs in private. But covering screens or blacking entire areas out or the entire fucking screen is a fucking abomination. Shit needs to go.
