ZaFurry Game streaming

[YoteFox]

So in light of certain discussions I want to ask about the viability of perhaps having a game streaming type of thing going on here for the ZaFurs?
Is there a way to implement something like that?

[Valerion]

Sounds like a good idea. I know virtually nothing of it - what would be needed to implement this?

[Adagio]

There has been a stream thing going. But internet problems happened.

[YoteFox]

I was thinking along the lines of integration with a streaming site perhaps? I'll read up some more about it, I've personally been wanting to stream my gameplay for ages but never got so far. It would be cool if there is a way we can stream games or what have you directly to ZaFur with a little live chat thing on the side

[Galahad]

Given how huge gaming is in the community, I think this has heaps of potential. I am not sure how it might be implemented technically, but I am sure a means can be brainstormed. Good thinking, Yote.

Well there's already an official discord server in the works, so why not post stream links there once it's up?

[YoteFox]

Not just stream links but the actual stream on ZaFur

[Leeward]

That seems a bit illogical to me when there are perfectly good streaming platforms out there but sure why not. If you can embed a YouTube video why not a stream.

I'm not sure if it's possible, but we can have a stream page intergrated to look at the ZAfur stream and then we can have a twitch account and such linked to it. Then we can place up a weekly timeslot and fill in where necessary? Is this what you were thinking of Yote?

[YoteFox]

That sounds like a pretty good idea actually Ivic, that seems like it could work quite nicely

I mean it's still in the early stage of an idea, but I feel it could have great potential. Would be amaze to watch a team of ZaFurries on Overwatch per say (No obvious bias)
Watch art streams of ZaFurries, watch possible fursuit building streams or crafting streams of ZaFurs specifically. Make it more ZaFur oriented. I personally would love to get a bunch of furs in a custom overwatch game and just fuck about with the settings and have fun. We had something similar the other night where I made a custom game for myself and people started joining, we ended up having duels and silly things. Which can be really fun to watch and be a part of.

I wonder ... will need to chat to the black cat.

Sounds great would be way more convenient than watching the furs abroad who stream at ungodly hours and would be fun to actually be able to join some games with my fellow furs.

[Adagio]

Im hopefully gonna get a good connectiin soon. Buuuut... I'm not very good at games...

[Ivic_Wulfe]

Isn't that like part of the fun? Learning new games and just being around people who are similarly bad at games?

[Adagio]

Hahahahahaha!!!
Well! Im in! I wanna be part of this!

[Wilco Whiteheart]

This actually does look interesting. You can count me in!

[Adagio]

Thread Necromancy.

Guys! Lets discuss this!

Lest start with a list of games?

[Asbjorn-phoenix]

Slightly off topic, there are a number of us, who have been playing tabletop simulator games on a Sunday, should anyone be interested in joining in let me know and I'll send an invite to the telegram group.

i think this is a good idea, this would be nice for those that (like me) want to stream without the craziness of a twitch/youtube chat
