xQc hits back at netizens criticizing him for his ‘low-effort’ streams: ‘I gotta fill in the gaps’
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Following his return from a hectic trip to TwitchCon in Las Vegas, xQc has returned to his usual streaming schedule.
Nevertheless, a segment of his fans has expressed displeasure, describing his content as “lazy,” “boring,” and lacking both enthusiasm and effort.
During his extravagant trip to Las Vegas, xQc had access to seven different hotels, butlers, automobiles, and more. This lavish display of wealth left many prominent streamers and influencers baffled, even though he later emphasized that he didn't spend a single dollar on anything in Vegas.
Fans criticize xQc for 'low-effort' streams
Fans are currently speculating that xQc's recent "low energy" and "low effort" streams are due to his contractual obligations. On Reddit, numerous individuals have been critical of the Canadian streamer.
A user wrote, "he is just doing contract hours, he don't (sic) give a fuck about content ever since he got the first gamble sponsor bag one year ago."
Another user wrote, "While I appreciate that xgc (sic) streamed for roughly 22 hours I feel like when he does these long streams they always end up being low energy/effort streams."
The user went on to write, "I can't speak for everyone but I think it would be nicer if he streamed 5-8 hours of high energy/effort type streams than these long and exhaustive streams which you can clearly tell he is just stalling and dragging on."
One user replied to the last user's comment, saying, "l agree and I am officially game complaining i (sic) do not care. 2023 has literally been one of the best years in gaming ever but bro doesn't seem interested in playing any of it. Only AAA game, that I can think of, that he has finished this year is Hogwarts (and Lies of P I think)."
What did xQc say?
In a livestream shared by a user named @iqdev, xQc mentioned, “I need to do a lot of work," further explaining, "Usually, I don’t need quotas because they’re so low that I hit all of them. But I got sick twice, I went to Europe, and I had TwitchCon to do. I’m just far behind.”

xQc has responded to the criticism with a sarcastic remark in his chat, showing that he's aware of the recent concerns.
His post emphasized the absurdity of needing to regulate his stream content while presenting a detailed schedule of games and activities.
In response, xQc poked fun at the complaint and underscored the absurdity of micromanaging his broadcast content by providing a comprehensive schedule of games and activities.
He wrote, "NAH IM (sic) SCHEDULING this stream not to play too many games reddit doesn't (sic) like or twitter, im cooking hol up. were playing (sic)18 minutes of slither, 9 minutes of clue, 6 minutes of risk, 52 minutes (sic) of MC then I'm(sic) allowed 19 minute react (sic). gimme a second, i (sic) gotta fill in the gaps."
