Here is what the Twitch Directory for Dark Souls 3 looks like on day two since launch in japan.
As you can tell there is a huge amount of streamers, streaming the game. At first glance you would assume the game is out globally which will lead people into getting confused. Many streamers appear to have purchased the JAP version in order to stream it as early as possible.
Furthermore who is selecting the group of Twitch streamers to get first access to the NA version of the game? What is the baseline for the selection of these casters over others? It seems like there is a insider group of casters who always seem to get this special treatment. This is one ongoing case where I would hope Twitch becomes more transparent. They should list who is in this special group and what are the requirements to be listed in the group.
