now I see why those are starting to actually play something in the background (Mario Kart is on the rise) instead of "just chatting"

Clever men and women found an exploit in the Twitch TOS that let them wear bikinis ONLY if they were in an appropriate situation like swimming... They then made Twitch a wasteland of hot-tub videogames, hot-tub chat, hot-tub cooking show... literally anything to take advantage of how sad and thirsty the masses are.

Twitch eventually gave in, and now lets everyone monetize their thirst-traps again.

Just because they made a TOS change you disagree with, doe snot mean Twitch is becoming a softporn site.

Jesus H Christ on a unicycle...

what TOS change?

it is about the content that starts dominating the site since pandemic (or already before that)
If it's all you can see on Twitch, try watching different channels, as the algorithm seems to think you like those kinds of streamers. Scrolling through the top 50ish most watched channels at the moment, there appears to be... one scantily clad woman in a bikini among them. Yeah. Absolutely "dominating". Basically nothing else on there anymore.

Anyway, moving on...

I don't know if been chatted about before, but I would think all YouTube bat rep companies would want to get a hold of this. As in rights to promote games on channel (but right to produce on YouTube and own foramte as well etc, multi-format until a certain percentage is reached of subscribers, then exclusive etc...

I dont think this service is majorly about animation, its about batreps.

An exclusive channel opens them up to a majority footing in everything streamed...big changes maybe in the works.

We know how GW is about IP on everything...

Yes and after they shut down all battle reports GW will also move on to shut down painting commissions using official paint schemes (or any derived from or close too).

After that GW will also demand all gamers adopt at least one kitten.....

I know we'll get a lot of legitimate worry chatter backed up by clickbait worry fuel on Youtube, but GW has no grounds to do takedowns and Youtube don't play about that. If they did GE would already have shut down most media related channels. Little GW will just put themselves on their crank list if they start mass reporting without US IP law backing up any of it. So that sort of stuff simply isn't going to happen.

would not be the first time, and this exactly what GW would try in hope that no one has enough money to get back on them in court
and YT is in their favor as take down everything and the other one needs to proof that is legal

Coming back to this, today's WHC article had some more tidbits about Angels Of Death, and the article ended with this pic..

Are those five plusses in the picture just decorative, or is this some sort of hint towards WH+ having five different aspects to it in terms of content?

It looks like 5 different pluses...

I've been wondering a bit if the Gaunt's Ghost audiodrama we saw previewed would be part of a bigger launch, with a Collector's Edition physical and part of Warhammer Plus for a digital one.

I think the additional +'s and the statement that animation is only the beginning indicates that Warhammer+ will have more features or services then just streaming which makes sense from the prespective that the animation alone is not likely to generate enough subscribers and income for GW. They will need to bundle other value add services likely to make the Warhammer+ platform viable if they are not partnering with anyone.

I already can, it's called ad blockers. For YT at least, I don't do Twitch.

Dozens if not hundreds of non-GW "How to paint minis" channels out there, their painting tutorials moving to a pay-for service isn't something I'm going to miss by any means.

What, you don't like 'tutorials' that are "load the paint up on your brush, apply here and.... skip to the next step where color X is complete?"

Heck if Duncan "Two Thin Coats" can do it, GW can do it too. Keep their basic free tutorials up and then do advanced "Evy Metal" ones on the streaming service. Though I'd prefer them in white dwarf, but that's long been mostly copying the same general style of posting painting guides as the videos - a list of paint colours one layer after the other

I'm guessing the 40k Army Builder/Azyr App will be buried behind them. Wouldn't be shocked if Warscroll Builder was taken out back and shot too just as an 'incentive'.

There was a job advertisement for people who could do battle reports so they'll probably do their own on there as well.

 Theophony wrote:

There was talk of Darren Lanthem being told he could have a 'masterclass' gig if he shut down his Youtube channel. He stopped uploading but hasn't seemed to fire the shot that will actually kill it. With them now largely having done Battle Ready(tm) tutorials on Warhammer TV since Duncan left, I could see them keeping those on Youtube and then hiding the more advanced ones behind WH+. Nick and Peachy probably aren't good enough to get anyone to sub, but Darren and Louise might.

Under Duncan and Peachy their full-blown tutorials were good for beginners, I felt. Nothing that'd win you awards but they served to give people confidence and in that way they've been a big success. Lil Timmy looks at how well Duncan's Cadians turn out without overcomplicated techniques or tools and thinks "wow I could do that!" Lil Timmy probably doesn't look at Nick drowning Cadians in Contrast with stains visible from the thumbnail and get inspired.

I think Warhammer+ will be more akin to Amazon Prime.

Annual subscription that gives you access to:

Animations
Bat Reps
Painting tutorials
AoS/40K app
Audiobooks
Free postage/next day delivery

Exclusive models available - possibly included with your subscription.

The exceptionally low level of buzz surrounding Warhammer+ should be very worrying for GW.
While new FAQs get their own thread here on dakka within minutes of their release, it took hours after the last W+ update until this thread got ressurrected.
And while even a vague announcement of a new game, i.e. Old World, sparks dozens of pages of discussion, threads about news surrounding animation go dormant one day later.
I will remain open minded until we have all the details, but with the info with have now I can't imagine how GW can pull this off.
