I'd rather they not, but:

If game companies are going to do this, then they should just sell their content to Netflix or Microsoft and cash in on that licensing revenue while not having to do any of the work.

I do not understand why companies are choosing to make their own streaming services when they are just money pits that provide minimal benefit.

Because everyone thought they could save money by doing it themselves. It's rarely that easy.
