Combined with him being so racist he lost his esports gig you'd really think a guy that devoted to capitalism and self interest would protect the bag a bit better.
i streamed once, 3 years ago, when a friend of mine gave me his old mic. I just streamed rimworld for 2 hours and talked to chat like we were hanging out in the same room. still have 5 followers lol
my completely worthless advice would be to just do it, and let the chips fall where they may
yea, twitch doesn't exactly help you find new people to watch. streaming ck3 probably a good move tho, a lot of strategy game streamers are more chill and don't have face cam. diff audience than the FPS streamers, also probably less likely to have creeps in your chat.
Yeah, it's hard. I remember listening to a pod where popular streamers talked about their success, and it comes down to:
Must do these things:
Have a microphone
Talk about whatever while having viewers, silence is not interesting
Gameplay that isn't completely average. You can be really terrible, really good, or do something interesting outside of the good/bad structure.
Stream.
Then, you need to actually get some viewers. People that like what you are doing. Options include:
Be involved in the game's community and make friends
Encourage people online to visit, put out a call on this site or on social media or whatever
Perform some never seen before feat so everyone comes to see what you'll do next (unlikely to happen)
The most important thing to remember is that it's a slow process. If you're streaming with the sole intent of becoming popular, that's the wrong approach. Stream with the intent of having a small number of people that do keep coming back to watch you.
Honestly, when you're talking about getting as big as Destiny, you don't even have to be good at video games. Hasan's not great at video games, but he has 16k (ie makes a fuck ton of money) subscribers because he's entertaining. He mostly just talks about politics and memes and watches reality TV. He plays games for fun, but his audience drops off significantly when he switches over to gaming, generally.

His makimg 250k a year playing video games. Why the fuck does he even care about the protests. Fucking loser

just do it w/ cam off if that helps. if you're good at games, you can still get a pretty big audience w/o being on cam.

a large part of the twitch viewer base don't care if you're good at the game or not, they watch for entertainment

that costs like $500+ for the model and rig and stuff but it's probably really lucrative yeah

I think he wanted to play footsy with the right. He probably made a calculation that if he takes their side they will likely watch his show.
