I hate the "watch twitch for rewards!" ones. Because your twitch streamers may be playing content you haven't gotten to yet. So you take the risk of putting it on in the background and hoping it still counts and the page hasn't for some reason stopped counting your progress or risk checking it and maybe getting spoiled on something.
Since I do streams myself I have no problem with this.
I alway have a browser window with my own stream open for control reasons.
This at least worked perfectly for Baldurs Gate 3.
For CP they chose to limit the drops to a bunch of streamers i was totally uninterested in. So I did open a new browser tab, started the stream on some random guy that announce to give drops, and muted it. Then I did my thing. Went later back to the tab and collected my reward.
Just turn it on, then do something else, come back a hour later.
Accepting ‘bribes’ from Amazon feels like shit.
It's funny because the partnership is an acknowledgement of either the ignorance or apathy of the meaning behind the entire genre which the game is titled after.
