I'm guessing for this specific example it's because they are trying to brand their content. If they're streaming their face all the time, it's good to have your face in the pfp. If they're streaming witcher all the time, well...face + witcher seems reasonable? Idk it is super normal to make an avatar of yourself in video games
This seems like the most straightforward and reasonable explanation
Maybe im just an old man. Just the cartoon avatars people make of themselves is so cringe to me
Kill the concept of "cringe" in your mind. Reject the you that deems things "cringe", and be free
Yeah, I think it's just really normal now across a lot of apps even outside of games due to the "gamification" of...well, everything
