There's a big difference between streaming a gameplay-driven game vs a story-driven game. I know way too many people who have been choosing not to buy story-driven games because they can "just stream it to watch the story for free". It's damaging to the industry. To me it's in the same category as pirating a movie or a show and completely in the right of the publisher to choose not to allow it to the best of their abilities.

Then they're stupid. Even a completely story-driven game is a very different experience when you watch it instead of playing it. Let's take for example beyond. There's no fucking way I'd settle for just watching a youtube video instead of actually playing it because there's literally zero immersion. And that's the whole point of the game - to make it interactive.
