How did both the Bombcast and the Beastcast mix up the Darksiders 1 and 2 protagonists?? It's a weird coincidence.

That question about streaming consent is something I think about often. I personally don't want to be "featured" on a steam, even though it'd be incidental. That situation actually happened to a couple people I know a few years ago. I came into our group voice chat server to play some CS:GO, and they were already in a match. They asked me if I knew who a specific person was, since their match had an incredibly outlandish number of in-game spectators. Turns out they were playing against Imaqtpie, who is a very popular streamer and former LoL pro. (And it was recently reported he makes millions from streaming.) My friends weren't too happy about being more or less showcased on a stream like that. It's kind of like being shoved onto a stage without having signed up for it.
