 Is Facebook gaming better than Twitch FV versus Twitch streaming? A few months ago Facebook gaming was nothing. Almost overnight. It merged with Mixer since it's shutting down and it became a pretty big deal Now I still think that YouTube and Twitch are still way more popular than Facebook gaming But is it better than YouTube or Twitch? First, I'm going to talk about watching Facebook gaming to be honest Even if it was better, I still wouldn't watch it because there aren't any big streamers here yet Now in the future, that might change, but right now it's just not happening Facebook gaming might be a good option for you if you use Facebook a lot because it's always trying to rub their new stuff into people's faces This could be good for creators, but more on that later. Twitch does let you see streamers Just not as much as how much Facebook is pushing out their streamers content It's like they invest so much into this thing and their goal is to dominate the streaming industry as a whole Even if you use Facebook, I wouldn't watch Facebook gaming myself because of the low amount of popular streamers Yes, they're playing big stars to use it But like with Mixer, it's hard only watching one or two big ones who like for example Ninja and Stroud There are some good things though Like it's pretty easy and simple to browse games on Facebook gaming You can stream, view, play, basically a ton of things here. It's more Facebook than Twitch If that makes sense. You can browse your feed and comment on other clips and streams It's kind of has that Instagram format It's definitely more social than looking at a stream for long sessions The suggested rows are also pretty cool because you can browse streamers of all different types of games And it's just another option to look for someone The main take is basically that Facebook pushes your stream to more areas Whereas Twitch only shows us when people look at a game or follows a streamer In Facebook gaming, you can just go directly to your Facebook feed and find it if you add it to there And that's just another way that Facebook and Facebook gaming connect each other Now let's talk about game streaming. Is it easy to grow? How much money do streamers make? What is it like to stream on Facebook? Based on some videos, it's pretty easy to set it up You just need to fill out some info and customize your page and stuff Since it's still a new platform, it's less saturated for new streamers Plus with Facebook pushing out this platform more and more You'll get recognized pretty easy. Now this doesn't mean you should leave Twitch and just head to FB gaming And I think it's like this Even though you're the biggest streamer on you're not going to get a lot of views For example, when Ninja got like 10k compared to 50k on Twitch It also has a creator tab where people can find new creators and you can get featured in it Another thing I noticed is the vast majority of viewers were watching mobile games For example PUBG Mobile itself had like 100k and the next most popular game had like 10k Viewers. This might be the best platform if you're a mobile streamer So that's a benefit for them. On the money side of things probably the same as Twitch If not better because I heard that ads make a lot especially if you try to grow on Facebook itself There isn't an exact answer for everyone if you use Facebook a lot chances are you'll want to stream and watch there If you don't, Twitch is probably the right for you I'm not a streamer so I don't know much But this really seems like a good platform. The only thing holding it back is its popularity compared to Twitch and also some Polishing. Oh, yeah, it's a viable streaming platform and you can definitely get famous on it And it's quite simple to use. This is for now, but in the future all of this might change Due to Facebook growing so much more and more streamers know about this platform and some might even switch to it The massive growth due to how much money Facebook is putting into this thing is just massive Even though Twitch still has like 75% of game streaming viewership Facebook still has a chance to become as successful as Twitch. This won't happen soon But it might happen in a couple of years or so What are your thoughts on this and that's having a discussion about this in the comments below
