It might just be that I hang out with more indie games; but I can't really see that happening. My sense is that the gaming industry has come to realize view the youtubers/twitchers as a form of free advertisement. Heck, a lot of game companies are giving their product away to streamers with a sufficient audience. Some even have built in twitch integration.

I suspect we will see a divergence between "gamy" games and story based games; with the latter being harsher of streamers.
