because, we are so overwhelmed with obvious fake bullshit 24/7, that anything "real" is a breath of fresh air.

Asmongold is some random hoarder whose claim to fame is playing fucking WoW, he also used his newfound status to take care of his ailing mother and now father.

this is why more people tune in to watch any given asmongold stream than they do fucking...jimmy kimmel, who only has a show because he knew someone and they couldnt find anyone else with less edge.

it's like...the truman show in way

    Not that I'm a huge Kimmel fan but the man worked his way up in broadcasting from college radio station and being a radio host through the 80s and 90s before getting a TV show. I wouldn't call ~25 years of work before landing a TV host gig "just knowing someone"
