Erotic service Chaturbate allowed streaming video games - but only from an approved list
That on the streaming service "for adults" now can hold broadcasts on video games, Chaturbate representatives announced September 29.
Service users can run broadcasts on games approved by the moderation, including downloading them directly from the site.
Chaturbate offered game developers, including erotic ones, to enter their projects into the list of allowed on a special page, thereby allowing the authors of the content to run them during the broadcasts.
At the time of writing, the number of approved games includes two dozen projects, mostly of the erotic genre. However, as noted by the publication Kotaku, among others, the indie arcade Log Jammers became available to streamers.
Developers of some games with a rating of "18+" became interested in the innovation of Chaturbate, responding to the announcement of the service on Twitter. Previously, for broadcasting video games on Chaturbate content creators have received warnings from the platform. This was probably due to the fact that the service did not want to receive complaints from developers and publishers.
Some users on the network reacted to the announcement of Chaturbate with humor, calling the service a future competitor to Twitch.
