I think it still has a serious shot if the Xbox Series X pulls in a lot of new users. Put mixer right up front and autoplaying without sound. Make the dashboard come to life and make mixer a core experience for Xbox owners. Couldn't be any worse that what the 360 and One dashboards turned into.
I don't generally agree with this. I don't see how Mixer will gain a one-up on places like Twitch / Youtube because of two reasons:
- Youtube and Twitch both have had such a head start historically with the internet and have such a huge userbase that have already shown that they won't massively move over to a new platform despite their favorite streamers moving over.
- Mixer would have to eclipse a huge number and gain a huge number of users, see here:
Sure, yes, it was originally beating Youtube Gaming Live in 2018 but with the purchases of Valkyrae & CourageJD from 100Thieves (a very well known and growing organization by well known ex-COD Pro player Nadeshot) helped boost Youtube's numbers and that growth sustaining remains to be seen. However, I don't think Mixer's current strategy allows for them to do what you guys are hoping and numbers overall are showing that it isn't working (see my other post on page 1 lol), so whatever their strategy is outside of buying big faces, doesn't work. There would have to be major changes in order for them to do this big jump in numbers like you guys say will happen.
