Pro letting Streamers in:

1. It's only top streamers, they said people with over a million views. I would venture to say that this is not a lot of people

2. Streamers play constantly. If you are beta/alpha testing a game this is exactly what you want. What you don't want is to give someone a beta key and have them not play very much because that means they are not testing the game.

3. Streams understand the game. Don't get me wrong, I've been here since the first closed beta and I am pretty okay at the game but I will never have the understanding of the game as say ZiggyD. People with this much knowledge can give certain feedback that devs want. Of course people like Ziggy should get invited, they put so many hours play testing the game they basically works for the company but don't get paid.

4. People watch streamers and this raises brand awareness about the game/company. Yes surprise surprise this is a business. I can't imagine how many hours the devs work to put out this much quality content over such a short amount of time. I have been PC gaming since Castle Wolfenstein and I would say that this game has released more content than any other game EVER! Anything that helps the devs do their job I say: Kudos!

5. Remember that closed beta is exactly that: CLOSED! I have tried several times to get on beta testing for other games, I am pretty sure that paying 10$ to be on the POE closed beta is the only time I have been able to participate in a closed beta. Please stop whining and acting like you are entitled to closed beta, you are not.

Honestly I don't have any cons to letting streamer in. Although I am the CEO of a LLC and I will say that this is a business decision period. It's good business and that's that. Lets all cut these guys some slack. If you are out there devs from GGG I say: great job and keep up the good work!! If more video game companies were like yours, I would have more than 1 or 2 choices when I play games. Thank you GGG.

+1. I want this thread nuked from orbit, but it's nice to see both sides of this argument...moot though it is.

You must not be a very good CEO.

Dangling the keys to the pearly gates directly in front of your congregation is a surefire way to get them to change religions, especially if you're letting your best friend's wife cut in line.

ITS A BETA. ITS UNFINISHED. ITS FOR TESTING PURPOSES.

Mother of god why is everyone so desparate to get in? Do you not want the joy of discovering the content in it's final, best state? Is it that important that you get everything you want when you want it? It's not even what you want! There are still going to be bugs, and frequent wipes and changes! Is everyone suddenly 12 years old??

You're complaining that a business made a smart business decision by letting highly exposed and generally qualified people into the testing realm. It's not complicated.
