Friends List: Why should you care about livestreams?

If you buy something from a Polygon link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

Chris Plante co-founded Polygon in 2012 as editor-at-large and is now editor-in-chief. He also created and occasionally teaches NYU’s Introduction to Games Journalism course.

You may have noticed a theme on Polygon this morning.

If this is your first episode, Friends List is a daily web series in which press, publishers and developers answer an important, unusual or agitating question related to video games. The goal is to give both Polygon's many team members across the globe, and those involved in covering, designing and releasing games, an opportunity to speak with you.

Today, I'm joined by Deputy News Editor Griffin McElroy to answer this question: Why should you care about livestreams? The episode will begin at 2:00 p.m. ET and will be available via YouTube following the recording.

Share your opinion in the comments. We'll field questions at the end of the episode.
