Does anyone know which game this is?
Grand Theft Auto. It’s actually really good twitch content, I’d say some of the best if not the best content on twitch. Cornwood is a pretty funny character
It's like soap operas of twitch. It's fun to watch, but dont go full psycho invested in it though.
Yeah just view it as fun, some viewers want their streamer to “win”, but there is no winning in roleplay. It’s all for fun, and if you had fun watching then your streamer won
Thank you.
Pretty sure it's GTA5 RP.
Thank you.
It's basically improv comedy with a heavily modded GTA V game as the driver and visualization for it. Especially funny when they have to roleplay away glitches or misclicks
Exactly this, it's basically GTA5 private servers with fully customised game mechanics and strict rules around conduct where you're playing a character in a realistic setting, like an actor of sorts. It's big money for the people who run these servers too, especially NoPixel which is the most popular streamer server and difficult to get whitelisted on.
Rule breaks, for example not fearing for your life and acting appropriately when in a dangerous situation are potentially risking a ban. There is a full set of laws and police, judges, lawyers and a whole court and prison system modded into to deal with criminals with players roleplaying all of these roles. There's a hospital, ambulances, doctors and you have to get someone else to call 911 to have a paramedic drive out and rescue you if you die.
It's honestly impressive how much and well modders have modded GTA5 over the years. If you wanna try it yourself download the FiveM client and there are hundreds of servers you can join and play on.
Be warned though, just like older games with private servers (like old Battlefield/CS ect games) you are ultimately at the mercy of whoever the admins who run them are and sometimes these can be interesting individuals. Rockstar recently bought out the FiveM platform but they have no real control over what these private individuals do short of banning the whole server from the platform which rarely happens.
