As a long-time viewer of both Asmongold and HasanAbi, I find myself deeply invested in this unfolding drama. It’s fascinating to watch two influential personalities engage in introspection about their roles in shaping the digital content landscape.
Asmongold acknowledges HasanAbi’s claim that he might have played a role in the so-called “Twitch ‘apocalypse,'” a period where advertisers are departing because of questionable content, by accepting responsibility for any potential impact he may have had.
By late October, concerns arose that a Twitch apocalypse might occur because certain types of content on the platform could lead to this. This situation mirrors the YouTube apocalypse of 2016 and 2017, during which many advertisers stopped working with YouTubers all at once.
Consequently, there was a surge in content suitable for families, which brought about a significant transformation in the content industry that continues to be noticeable today. If something similar occurs on Twitch, Asmongold acknowledged he might bear some responsibility, concurring with Hasan’s critique towards him.
Asmongold often creates threads like these,” Hasan clarified. “When you collaborate with people who seem to delight in causing destruction, regardless of their intention to provoke or troll, platforms that tolerate such behavior will ultimately harm other content creators.
Shortly thereafter, Asmongold viewed the video and openly confessed to his audience that undoubtedly, he hasn’t made things any better.
He expressed that while it’s not entirely his blame, he believes some aspects of the “adpocalypse” were his responsibility. He then thanked his viewers and added that the situation unfolded as it did because accountability was lacking among all parties involved. Unfortunately, things escalated beyond expectations.
“Instead of acknowledging their mistakes, some people have been making excuses to justify racism, wrongdoing, or saying harmful things. Such behaviors are unacceptable, they always have been, and it’s clear that there is a double standard at play.
In the discussion, Asmon was involved in a contentious situation following his remark that people in Palestine represent a “lesser culture,” a comment that led to a two-week ban on Twitch for him.
After various broadcasters, like Kaysan, BigEx, and others, found out that their content was no longer eligible for advertising revenue on the platform due to their representation of nations such as Iran and Venezuela.
As a streamer myself, I can’t help but wonder about the long-term impact of the Adpocalypse on us content creators. Just last week, I stumbled upon an unexpected windfall – 100 Thieves CEO Nadeshot accidentally revealed his Twitch earnings from a subathon, totaling approximately a quarter of a million dollars over two weeks! It’s evident that there’s money flowing in the current system, but only time will tell how this situation unfolds for all streamers.
Should alterations occur in the future, it might lead to a significant overhaul in the type of content and the creators visible on the platform.
