Lowco's Blog

In January 2018 Lowco participated in a charity marathon stream set up by PlayerUnkown's Battlegrounds. The event ran around the clock from January 29th through February 2nd to support Children's Miracle Network Hospitals through Extra Life . PUBG Partners streamed on the PlayBattlegrounds Twitch channel in 4 hour blocks throughout the marathon. Lowco had a very successful session, raising over $1,000 and winning her second match of the stream! Over $475,000 was raised across the entire event! Total amount raised for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals: $1,034.23

In January 2018 Lowco streamed 3 sessions of Black Squad, a game published by NEOWIZ. Black Squad is a free to play, early access, first person multiplayer shooter. While not the first game of its type, Lowco had positive things to say about the game during her sessions. Her praise focused on how easy it was to get used to the feel of the game, and the unique maps, however, she did note that the user interface and multiple currency types, both of which seemed too complicated. Still, she highly recommended that anyone interested in first person shooters should download the game and give it a go. Here are few select highlights from her Black Squad sponsored streams:

In January 2018 Lowco was a featured guest on ORIGIN PC Live where she shared her unique take on a wide variety of streaming subjects.  The interview is well worth the watch and covered the following:  Games that have caught on for her own stream and why she felt they were successful What to look for in games any broadcaster might be considering streaming The continued surge of new streamers trying to get their start on Twitch and Mixer Catalyst , the stream team she founded with several others in early 2017 Her longstanding website, StreamerSquare , and what inspired her to found the site Her top tips for new streamers Her shortlist of games she is most looking forward to in 2018 You can watch the entire episode below, or you can jump straight to the start of her interview here .

Lowco is a regular in the survival/crafting game genre, and she has been playing ARK: Survival Evolved since it first became available via early access. Living amongst dinosaurs is a fantasy many of us have had, and ARK makes it all too real. In December 2017, she had the chance to do several sponsored streams for the ' Aberration ' expansion pack. The DLC takes the already raucous realm of ARK and removes the protective shell around the planet that we call the atmosphere. The result is a world blighted by radiation and roamed by mutated predators. Viewers were endlessly entertained by encounters with dinos which had the habit of ending quite suddenly for Lowco. Despite the many untimely deaths, Lowco remains a big fan of ARK and the Aberration DLC was deemed well worth the purchase for the revised world and added challenge. Viewers interested in testing out this challenging DLC were directed to the steam page via an affiliate link.

Lowco loves her quirky games as much as any others, and she found a gem in Uurnog Uurnlimited . The 2D Indie Platformer grabbed Lowco and the viewers with its simple controls balanced by a world littered with turrets, portals, and other objects to interact with creating limitless possibilities in each level. Lowco was smiling every minute of her two hours whilst stealing (saving?) the cute animals spread throughout the game, even when she was unintentionally teleporting herself, or finding herself in the wrong place at the wrong time . Viewers interested in buying the game were encouraged to do so through an affiliate link.

In October 2017, just in time for Halloween, Lowco partnered with the Dead by Daylight team to promote their new 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' DLC. It was a return to a game that Lowco held in high regard as it was great boon to the channel back when it released in 2016. True to the 'Elm Street' movies, when playing as Freddy Kruger, you had the ability to enter your victim's dreams and lure them to an untimely death. You could say the role of Freddy fit Lowco like a glove, she quickly came to grips with his 'Dream Demon' ability and used it with merciless efficiency against the other players. Throughout the stream viewers interested in purchasing the game could do so through an affiliate link, the Dead by Daylight team had also dropped the price of the game by 50%, making it easier for people to jump into the game and pick up the DLC as well.

In October 2017 Lowco partnered with Ubisoft and Twitch for several streams to promote Assassin's Creed: Origins and Twitch Prime. Lowco fell in love with the game, spending close to 40 hours exploring the colossal world and completing the story. She recommended the game to all fans of open world rpgs, and made a short video review sharing her thoughts on the game after she finished the campaign. Her streams generated a lot of interest in the unique Twitch Prime items available, her mod team were constantly giving regulars and newcomers directions get access to the gear. Twitch featured Lowco on their front page for 2 hours, bringing in many new faces to the channel. Most importantly, her viewers enjoyed every one of Lowco's Assassin's Creed: Origins streams, which were a treasure trove of highlight-worthy moments.
