RE: Starting Up In Twitch Streaming

in Hive Gaming3 years ago

Streaming sounds tough but rewarding; it doesn't sound easy to keep the banter up while you're trying to concentrate on the gameplay. But either way, deciding to start is definitely worth a pat on the back, as many people don't even try. Wishing you all the best in your streaming adventures!

Sort:  

When it comes to bantering, it's mostly just talking about what you're doing. To get started, you will do a lot of this.
"I'm going to peak this corner and see if anyone is sniping."
Peak corner.
"Ok, we are good. I'm going to push up to that building in hopes no one is there."
Push up to the building. BLAM!
"Chat, where the hell was that guy hiding. He has to be hacking."

It's way more manageable once you start doing it. The hardest part is doing that while you have 0 viewers and not getting down on yourself. Even if you have 0 viewers, you have to talk and interact like people are watching for the new viewers that pop in to not seem downright dull.

Yeah, I guess speaking to no audience is probably the worst. Gotta fake it til you make it, I suppose!

I think it all comes down whether the streamer has personality or not. People want to connect with other people, and especially with us gamers, we are born introverts.

The connection is very important here. Personality sells as they say.

Of course the content must be good also.

Of course, no one would watch a streamer play a game at the top ranks if his personality was dry as bricks. I live for the banter 😂

dry as bricks haha good one 😀

Hoping you're having a good day
