Why Pokimane quit OfflineTV’s Rust Server
After losing power mid-stream Pokimane went live again after a few minutes with the following statement:
Rust is a PvP and PvE survival game, where most of the gameplay comes from either tactfully coexisting with other members or surviving in a free for all environment. With a game of this nature, it is apparent that all players will approach the game differently.
Rust is also extremely unforgiving. When a player dies, they lose all their stuff and must start from scratch. Rust is ruthless and all players will be subjected to the same harsh reality.

Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel was scrutinized for taking the PvP element too far with many members of the server upset over being ‘griefed’ by him. Others defended him by saying that it’s part of the game.
Shroud made this statement:
This has prompted popular streamer Valkyrae to announce that a separate Role-Playing (RP) server will be set up for players like Pokimane, who do not wish to deal with the unforgiving PvP nature of Rust.
While this is an admirable compromise, the community will be split and how it pans out remains to be seen.
