Streamers sponsored by game studios?

I’ve started to notice that many of the big casino streamers like letsgiveitaspin and casino daddy are in fact sponsored by game studios like Avatar UX, Stakelogic, etc. These are casino streamers who claim to be “real” and do not play using “sponsored money” (their own words). The truth is that they are. They are being paid big money to play certain games. How is that genuine? I’m genuinely confused and wonder how that makes them any better than Roshtein and the other ones that always claim to be above.

They play with bonus funds which makes up half of their gambling budgets and gives them a massive advantage and they also get paid by providers to play games they don’t necessarily like, but because they get paid to. On top of that they also get shitload of affiliate money. Maybe we should just stop using the word “genuine”, “real”, and “honest” when describing said streamers because obviously it’s all bs. So next time when you watch these people and you see them play Stakelogic games over and over as if it was the best thing since sliced bread, then you know they are being sponsored to do so and not because they are so infatuated with these specific games lol.

    So basically everything about casino streaming is fake. Not even the games they play is out of genuine passion. What a joke.

    If they're not open about it then it's definitely disingenuous but as long as all cards on the table I don't see anything wrong with it. Marketing is marketing.

    How open are they about being paid by providers to play their games? I never heard him mention it once on stream. Isn't that to mislead viewers?

    @el-diablo here mate the best thing to do is ask them letsgivieitaspin is one of the most genuin streamers but obviously you cant just except that from me or any other viewer go watch stream ask him that question im sure he will be honest, and when he tells you the truth would that be misleading, now its important to recognise differences beetween a fake streamer who lies, and a real money streamer who has not been asked the question by example you, you could assume other thing but actual you could be wrong

    @xxxxwildingxxxx but that is like having to ask a food reviewer if he's been paid by the fast food company or not. You shouldn't have to do that. Obviously he's being paid to play certain slots but from what I've seen it's far from obvious. In fact, I've never seen it mentioned. It's just obvious to me because all of the sudden he'll be playing the same two slots over and over from the same provider etc. There are many tell tale signs along with officially announcements by game providers such as Avatar UX. I still think it's highly misleading and to claim you play with your own money when in fact you are getting tons of money from game providers to play their games + unlimited bonuses + affiliate money....how is that real money gambling? It's nothing like gambling for regular punters. I have nothing against letsgiveitaspin. I don't give a rats ass about him in fact. But shady marketing is shady marketing.

    @el-diablo ok would it be misleading if i said we play there games because we have a competition on casinogr***** thats the only thing i can think of why he would play certain game abit more but actually what your saying when he plays the same game over and over again isnt true so if anything your the one who is fake here lying anyway , i do think he plays some game for that site i mentioned but he doesnt over play them, like you say and if someone does somthing different is that fake? or can you be different and honest?being different and getting extra as letsgivieaspin does doesnt make him dishonest or a liar, if he told you why he plays the game could that make you wrong , and the things you mentioned he talks openly about with his viewers but yet you say misleading im not sure if your right and fair but i musnt be understand correctly then

    @xxxxwildingxxxx so he is open about being paid by Avatar UX, Stakelogic and most recently Slotmill to play their games? If so, can you point to where this transparency exist? Exactly what am I lying about? I'm curious to know that too.
