Happy? Mad? Sad? fail? Which is it?

It will succeed or become better you know what Google is like.

I hope that they will be able to improve twitch but I don't know.

I foresee forced google plus integration in order to stream (no google plus account? no streaming for you). I don't know if they'll require a plus account just to watch, I would hope not. But it wouldn't surprise me if they added that. 

I don't think they'll add a comment section like Youtube (it'd be a stupid idea if they did). 

Otherwise we're probably going to see the ability to save Twitch streams to youtube directly, notifications on youtube (when people watch your old videos) for when you're broadcasting live and things like that.

pretty sure I read somewhere that google is backing off on the g+ account.
