YouTube Gaming is a dedicated site focused on gaming videos and livestreams, which allows content producers to more accessibly broadcast on its integrated platform. YouTube livestreams are then able to be archived in their YouTube channel. Multiple Yogscast content creators used the service to broadcast live gameplay, but have moved to the more traditional platform, Twitch, as it allows donations and a source of income for them.
Most Yogscast members had noted that they were simply trying out the service and that there is no indication that their audience is moving from Twitch livestreams.
In-Yogiverse[]
Sjin livestreamed Heroes of the Storm and tried the platform once, before continuing with Twitch. He intended to use YouTube Livestreams to create content for longer playthroughs not suited for his channel, such as Telltale Games and episodic games.
