In a recent discussion, the producer of the Tekken series shared his thoughts on Capcom's controversial decision to charge for streaming of Street Fighter tournaments. He remarked that the current landscape of esports and gaming tournaments has evolved significantly, with many influencers and content creators reaping substantial financial rewards from streaming these events.
This move by Capcom has sparked a debate within the gaming community regarding the monetization of tournament streams.
