- Hi my name is (laughs)
I didn't need that anyway.
(playful keyboard music)
- Hi, my name is Erika Fermina.
My Twitch handle is AStylePixie.
- My name is Bret.
And you can find me on Twitch @ThreatDesigns.
- Hey everybody
I'm Kelsey, also known as Kelsey Dangerous on Twitch.
- I'm Jared, also known as Potato King Gaming.
- And I'm Zach
and I stream for BuzzFeed Multiplayer on Twitch.
- And today we're going to be playing Never Have I Ever.
- All right, let's play.
(upbeat music)
- I haven't had to stop the stream,
but I have put the BRB screen on
because we stream 12 hours a day,
so there's times that I have to go.
- I hardly, I will admit, like I hardly have done it.
I think the only I can remember was
when I was streaming for 24 hours.
- As soon as you sit down
and you're not allowed to go to the bathroom,
you have to go to the bathroom.
It's just like, it's not Murphy's Law,
but they need to make another one.
- I go every time before I start a stream.
It's like part of my routine. - Yeah, me too.
- But that doesn't mean I don't have to go during a stream.
(laughing)
- I mean, I'll like take intermissions of course.
(upbeat music)
- I think we do that all the time here
because when you start the stream,
people aren't just immediately there,
so we're kinda like still chatting, you know?
And then people start rolling in
and then we kind of start going.
- We've actually had another streamer streaming
and the conversation was on speaker phone.
- I guess, uh, uh, it's nothing terrible.
It's just a hot mic
and I'll talk to my roommates in the kitchen.
- I've definitely done the opposite
where I'll start a stream, be talking,
and realize that like my mic's muted.
- I've had that happen to me.
- And so they miss, they miss a lot, but yeah.
- That happens to me a ton.
(instrumental music)
- Definitely.
(laughing)
- A hundred percent.
- I mean, it wasn't like an emotional breakdown,
it was really happy tears.
- One of the breakdowns had to deal with a breakup
and trying to play the game and maintain being myself
on stream and I did have to end the stream
a little bit early because I couldn't handle it anymore.
- I've not--
- Zach's cold hearted.
Just kidding.
- But the challenge is out there for you guys.
- Make it happen.
- Make Zach cry 2020.
- Yeah, who's going to be the first one to do it?
(upbeat music)
- I've had lots of technical streaming fails,
we've had lots of dropped frames,
we've been DDoS'ed before by a 14 year old kid
who actually came in the game named "Farm and I DDoS",
so I didn't farm with him, I ended up killing him
and he DDoS'ed me anyway, three times that night.
That was very fun.
- There is this wonderful clip that someone made of me
just sitting like this
while I was trying to fix my sound issues
and of course it didn't get fixed,
so I was like.
And I turned off my stream.
(laughing)
- Oh come on now.
- All the time.
- Ah man.
- What kind of question is this.
- All the time.
All the time.
- You've been there. You've seen it.
- Um, yeah, honestly like every multiplayer stream ever
starts with a technical difficulty.
- A technical difficulty.
All the time.
- I think we have Boxtrolls.
- We have to.
- I love them.
(laughing)
(rhythmic music)
- I have not.
I'm not a shouter.
- There have been many internal rage moments.
- Oh yeah.
- People love to try to make you upset,
just like any way to get a rise out of you,
that's fun for some people - Yeah
And they'll just like not be part of your audience
and randomly come into your stream one day
and be like, how can I make this person upset?
- Rage quitting is definitely a popular term.
(upbeat music)
- I mean, we all fart, don't we?
- You can't go like a six hour Saturday stream
and not fart one time. - Six hours, yeah.
People don't, no one's going to know.
And I'm alone.
I think I farted on a multiplayer stream before.
- I mean, I've farted,
but nobody's really caught me,
however there are people in the voice chat
who have been caught farting intentionally
and not intentionally.
Someone left their mic unmuted
when they went to the bathroom
and there's a girl who likes to come into the voice chat
while she's in the bathroom, intentionally.
She likes to make a lot of funny sounds.
It's a fun stream, depending on who shows up,
it's not necessarily me that they come for,
they come for the interactions that everybody has
with each other.
(upbeat music)
- And there've been nights
where I'll have a few glasses of wine while streaming.
And then towards the end of the night,
I kind of end up slumped down in my chair.
Like, I guess I'm done with this game.
- I don't drink. I don't smoke.
But there have been instances with a lot of people
in the voice chat who have been both
and you'll hear a lot of coughing from a specific user
that we actually play with quite often.
- If I'm doing Minecraft, I'll like turn my webcam off
and just put my mouth really close to the microphone
and we'll do like Saturday morning ASMR Minecraft
and that's like just because I'm stoned and can't emote,
so (laughing), but people like it.
They're like, "Oh, I like this fun change up,
"it's very calm."
And I was like, you have no idea why it's so calm.
- Yeah.
I haven't, but I'm down.
- Challenge accepted.
- There you go.
- Let's switch on--
- [All] Multiplayer drunk stream
- Oh my gosh, I would get so anxious.
(upbeat music)
- I ended the stream early one time based on a breakdown,
but not necessarily frustration.
I just couldn't maintain myself.
- I have ended a stream while frustrated at a game,
but it was also after midnight.
So, I was just like, I'm going to sleep on this
and I'm going to come back to it tomorrow.
- We've had tech issues and like stuff isn't working
It's just like, we're just kinda like overall frustrated.
All right we're done. - Kind of over it.
We're done, but thanks for coming.
- You kinda call it when you know,
you're not in the right mood for it.
It's not going to do anyone any favors.
(upbeat music)
- I have not.
In game, yes, but in real life, no.
You know, like, if you're playing Zelda,
and you're frustrated,
you go and you like chop down some trees or break some pots.
Throw rocks.
I don't know.
- Honestly, I love the compilations on YouTube
of Twitch steamers breaking their equipment
out of like, just playing Fortnite
and just smashing their keyboard.
But like, those things are like expensive.
- Yeah - Yeah, would not do!
- I cannot afford to rage break any of my equipment,
I had to save up to buy all of it.
- I don't know, I tend not to break things.
Any more (laughing).
(trumpet music)
- No, I have not.
Because I am engaged.
Yeah, thank you.
I've been flirted at in chat,
but never with another streamer.
- I've met like multiple cute gay boys
playing Dead by Daylight as a killer
and they'll have their Twitch name
as their name in game as a survivor,
so I'll like, mid-match, tell my audience to go stalk
their Twitch channel and be like, "Oh, are they live,
"are they cute? Should we talk to them?"
And I've like made multiple queer friends that way.
Of just being like one guy, I would hook him
and he'd be like, "Oh daddy, hook me again."
And my audience would be like, "Oh my God, talk to him!"
And then we'd like flirt in chat.
It was cute.
Dead by Daylight is a great way to meet dudes.
- Apparently.
- Great.
- Flirting is an occasional occurrence on our stream
between people who are actually in relationships.
They tend to think it's okay
and they feel comfortable and being on my stream,
flirting with each other.
However, there are a lot of singles
and it's an easy way to meet people.
Not necessarily a dating, but a singles and looking
- I learned that you both have inside jokes about peeing
that I didn't know about.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, so--
- Yeah, we've got our thing.
- That's fair, that's fair.
I'm not mad, it's just like I didn't know--
- I'm not mad - I'm not mad
- At your inside jokes. - I'm not that mad.
I just wish I was a part of it.
- It was a fun game.
It didn't necessarily reveal too much
that you're not going to find
in every day coming to our stream.
- I'm glad it was wholesome.
And not terrifying.
- Twitch has been a great way to like meet people
and make really strong connections.
- Yeah.
- And we have done that.
- We have.
- My name is Bret,
you can catch me on Twitch @ThreatDesigns.
We usually stream Wednesday through Sunday,
8:00 p.m. Pacific to 8:00 a.m.
- You can check me out on Twitch @AStylePixie
and I usually stream Monday through Friday,
starting at 3:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time
as long as I have my stuff together.
