Youtube's Dedicated Gaming Platform

Source

Youtube is rolling out it's own dedicated gaming platform akin to Twitch. Twitch already does game streaming so well, and dominantly. I don't see how YouTube will make a dent in the niche. Youtube is backed by Google, so you can not count them out.

I think that there will be a good amount of YouTubers that embrace the new platform. As well as newcomers that would like to break into streaming. I do not foresee long time Twitch streamers switching to this new, albeit big name, service.

I don't stream, but I do watch streams from time to time. I may look to see what YouTube Gaming has to offer. Other than that, I'm gonna stick with Twitch.

I'm out.
