I def think it's distracting and not that enjoyable to watch a streamer scowling at the monitor in order to read and respond to comments.
It's interesting that the different platforms have such a different feel to them. A youtube livestream feels like a special occasion. "20k sub celebration", or whatever. Whereas on twitch, it's just another day in front of the camera. It's more or less the same thing as a YT live stream, just with a different looking UI.
I feel like there should be more live type situations where people can watch a movie or series together and hang out live. I guess Dischord has that feature.
Dischord -- which i fucking hate being on without hating the technology (because, even though I like occasionally playing something, I find the average gamer personality to be such a fucking draining void of anything vaguely interesting; purgatory levels of bleak) -- at least allows people to talk together live, in voice, and share links, videos and so forth in common chat. And you can still maintain a sense of who "the star of the show" is, because generally it's their server and they send out the invites.
