For us in China, it is the worst news that we can't watch the steam of ECL. I know I can download the videos after the game ending. But first of all, there won't be any Chinese world class player to comment for us. And Second, most of Chinese audiences don't know English. For us, to watch the steam is the only way to know what happen in the circle of AOE.
I'm not saying there should be someone break the rules. And I know most fans could accept this situation. But the question is, the video is useless in China.
The number of people who love AOE is decreasing very fast in China. People love dota or LOL much more than AOE. One of the reason is, those games take you less time. You only need less than half hour to finish one game of LOL. But for AOE, you need at least half hour even for 1 game of 1vs1.
So here comes the question. If most people don't want to pay so much time to play a game, how could you desire them to wait the videos? What makes us insist on this game? One of the most important reasons is we like to see the Chinese player do well. We like Mr. Yo, Tim, Lyx; We support SY and Frantic. So we cannot wait to know what happens to them. Please open the steam, otherwise this game would decline faster and faster in China.
