While attacking the third point on King’s Row, xQc tells his chat to straighten up, “Guys, stop calling each other nerds, we’re all fucking nerds, alright?”

“I spend all my day playing a dead game in the basement at 23,” xQc told fans. “And you all are worse because you’re watching, too.”

The brutal response would be a surprise from any other streamer, but xQc definitely has his own way of interacting with fans.
