As part of a community that rallied together to get to over 100 levels on a hype train on our first go, it feels incredibly deflating to realise that we didnt collect the emotes as we went. It feels unsatisfying knowing that there has to be multiple community efforts to achieve emotes we've already surpassed, along with the knowledge that incredible amounts of money have to be spent each time in order to achieve this.
It also means that viewers partaking in a hype train aimed at getting specific emotes cannot achieve lower tier emotes they may have previously missed, even if they spend money to achieve a higher level.
It disentivises me as a viewer and a paying customer to aim for high totaling hype trains when the reward is much less for taking part in something so incredibly expensive, and whilst I understand emotes and hype trains are nothin more than a fun way to spend money on supporting a streamer, it does feel inherently greedy to gatekeep emotee for totals that are passed.
