Just make the ad take up the top left quarter of the stream screen but play it muted, all should matter is that we can see it, if we wanna hear it we can click it.

All forcing us to watch and listen to an ad does is make us not care about what you're advertising, period. It's like protesters blocking a road, you really think im gonna care when you're doing something like this? I will not.

Just make it so we get mostly the stream still with a small portion of the screen goign to the ad and then make sure it doesnt force mute the stream. This will be a win win situation. I legit quit watching twitch cause of this ad stuff getting out of control.
