ty for the shoutout bro, very kind of you. big fan.

:O
i followed
It was actually kinda surreal, when Ludwig put your image up, and was like, "Do you know who this is?" Kinda nutty to see someone from the PvP community get recognized in a positive way from such a large content creator. Might make getting spun all day worth it. Good work my dude!
Dude I wish 😂
Ludwig needs to make a video called how to not cheat and watch it himself
?
Ludwig is known for cheating in video games a lot@@tsb4
Or how to cheat and not make a video ratting on yourself.
He'd probably get someone else to make the video and make a video about how he cheated on a video about how to not cheat
and then the original creator would react back
@@mrainrich3554
I’ve been wanting to try out streaming for a while, so I’m super stoked to watch this!!
Edit: Just got attacked 48 seconds in, and I quit lmao.
But I’ll be back 💪🏻
Gottem lol
Hahahaha who attacked you with 0 viewers??? hhhmmm...
That means someone actually started watching within a minute. I'd take that as a win
@@jabinboothman3593they meant Ludwig lol
@@mornmornHe means this video attacked him 48 seconds in when Lud called him a "lazy f***"
1:43 This is actually an eye-opener about what it takes to "make it". Man spent 600+ hours averaging 2 viewers and kept going. Insane. Thanks for sharing. Honestly daunting but at the same time encouraging.
Dude i have 9000 in 4 years. Wheres my money lol. It's fn luck. If you dont think so, look at the other 1000s and 1000s of hours little streamers put in that go no where. This guy is just like 1000s of other streamers. It's like winning the lottery.
I want to be a pilot and your "JUST DO IT, you don't need equipment" speech really inspired me
however, I died
Had me in the first half ngl
How did you even die? Can’t get airborne without a plane
@@aurelien5747Not with that attitude!
to be fair he said it applies to all hobbies. I think it does still apply to jobs even a pilot. JUST DO IT-- just apply to the job, just apply to the school, the creditless online course, the whatever to get the ball rolling. even if you back out or pick another one or whatever you started.
@@beleva09 bro that's crazy do you stream?
So glad that ludwig is learning how to operate a stream from the goats. cant wait til he hits 1000 subs!
i love supporting smaller channels
it's so nice to see larger twitch channels support a small up and coming streamer like Ludwig
LOL xD
In this video there were 3 different styles of pie charts. Their distributions are as follows: 12.5% - 3D Vertical, 25% - 2D Vertical, 62.5% - 2D Horizontal
Thank you, literally the only info I'm here for.
His first piece of advice is spot on. My first few streams got either no views or negative views it felt like, but slowly over time people came. And if you make the excuse that your pc isn't good enough, well guess what?! Neither is mine, I'm running a fucking gt 730 in a pc I found on Amazon for a stupid low amount. It was litteraly just enough to get my foot in the door. I use a combination of obs and PS remote play to stream, the quality sometimes sucks but it's better than nothing. I've slowly upgraded different things and now I'm just working on getting a new pc.
genuine question, how do you get negative views? (i don't really know how twitch works)
@@TheDarkLadyOfTheNight I'm just kidding when I say that, lol sorry
hey congrats dude !
I tried using PS Remote Play to stream since my PC isn't that great (streaming anything that isn't either 2000s era or the GBA and SNES emulators is basically a no-go due to how potato my PC is), I had to give up using Remote Play eventually though, screen just pixelates way too often, to the point I may as well stream through the console itself rather than through OBS
Its honestly hit or miss for me. And i feel that struggle with the potato computer. Ive noticed that hardwiring both your playstation and pc is the best way to make sure you gave a good connection. @Vexal50

Same too man.. it was pretty good….

This morning, i got sent this video by one of my biggest supporters. I have been streaming (for the most part) multiple times a week since October of 2020 and for the most part, have not gotten anywhere. After my hundreds of hours of experience, I believed that i had thought of every possibiilty for what I might be doing it wrong and since I've never had the money for professional equipment, I've blamed it on that.
But this video changes EVERYTHING. It gave me some much needed perspective on what streaming should be as opposed to the false conceptions I had built about what it was. It showed me what I can do better and the next steps I need to take to become the streamer I want to be and got me out of the trap I have been keeping myself in for the better part of the past few years.
To those of you who, like I had, have put in the time and believe there is nothing to do internally to better yourself as a streamer, I encourage you to watch this video as many times as you need to and keep an open mind that being trapped in that mindset might be the very thing keeping you where you are.
Dont be afraid of being wrong or making mistakes because the truth is youre going to fo that a lot. Everybody is. Failure is the best teacher.
If you read this, thank you. I'm aware that there could be people replying to this saying that nobody asked and I know that. I didnt do this for them, I did this for you and I did this for me. I had to get this out of my system.
DougDoug also has a pretty valuable video on the topic, if you're interested. It's called "DougDoug's Guide for new Content Creators" and it has a completely different perspective to this one
This is extremely well said 🔥
This was inspirational because it doesn't just apply to streaming. A lot of the advice here is great for pretty much any creative field out there.
I totally agree with your perspective on streaming. It's not all about being flashy and famous, but more about the journey and the joy of gaming. At the end of the day, as a streamer, you should just focus on doing what you love.
What a phenomenal video. Not only does Ludwig's advice apply to streaming but its also great life advice. Super well done!
36:44 last bullet is my biggest inspo for streaming
I was hoping someone else saw that last point 😂
I have no intention on streaming but all this talk makes me realize to just do the things I planned to do instead of just theorizing over them. good stuff.
So, I started streaming last year and actually did most of the stuff you listed. I just went live for the sake of being live; I made interesting titles, and I even created a UA-cam short. But I always stared at my view count, and at some point, got kinda depressed that I had an average view count of 2 (one being me and the other the StreamElements bot). At some point, I didn't feel like gaming anymore, I just stopped and thought to myself, 'this is it. I'm done with streaming.'
But it never left my mind. Sometimes I just came up with streaming ideas, like IRL streams with my animals or a stream of me learning the piano, or even just playing my favorite video game. But I was really scared of disappointing viewers who haven't seen me in a while and streaming something they didn't follow me for.
I always had a goal for streaming: just make people laugh and form a small to big community who I can have fun with. I want to react to their memes; I'd love to get some fan art, and I'd really love to talk to my chat in silly or deep ways (so often I just fantasize of me and a chat and talking about a topic I just though of xD). I have a bot who regularly tells chatters to be more active in chat because I love speaking with them. So this would be my end goal.
With your video right now, I think I will give it a shot one more time and just try to stream and make clips even though I don't know if it will work. So really, really thank you for this video; it really touched me on a personal matter and gave me motivation to become a streamer again.
gl!
@@noahmay7708 Thank you!
@@Mr_Molle hows it doing so far?
@@d4s0n282 To be real, I gave up...
I really tried to stream for some months after the video but I felt like my "content" wasn't watchable. Like if I would find my own stream I wouldn't want to stay.
I always tried to have some grand or small stream ideas but with my lacking motivation to play video games and the dryness of the stream I got frustrated with myself and dropped the idea of streaming for now.
I don't know if I ever really return but my motivation is almost completly gone :/
@@Mr_Molle fair enough for u
good video ty
on god
good comment
we know u didn’t watch it lil bro
37mins watched
25:33 Yes
hi wynn
Tarik got it spot on honestly, you can't get lucky without the position to get lucky so you need that small skill as foundation for you to be lucky
Lud being actively open to share information about what important tips matter in a content sphere is so cool, I really appreciate creators that love to share tips because they understand the industry keeps growing.
I don't currently create content, but I do intend to do so eventually, I have already made some progress even. I care tons about learning about these content tips, both because of my eventual goals but also because I study Marketing and I'll need them regardless.
I truly believe in the skill elements of these platforms.
I believe in the possibility to reach a minimum stability to even the big dream, I believe creating is awesome and fullfiling, I've done it one way or another all my life...
-
I have a friend who has been streaming for a bit, but I notice she actively doesn't have any content plan, she almost doesn't seem interested, but she also regularly speaks of the big dream, she streams occasionally with none of these goals in mind, particularly the clip mentality I too have recognized as necessary.
I think she could use some of this info, thank you for compiling a great entry level bullet point ❤
Your first video on how to become a good streamer was really what pushed me to start streaming in the first place, and having a follow up to it was but really cool to see especially having info from other streamers!
Ludwig, you can unironically do a Tedx Talk with a presentation like this...
Couldn’t agree more, being proud of your content is the most important part
The first stream I watched of you was actually the first version of the streaming and guide and it's kind of nostalgic looking back on it now, never really wanted to become a streamer but your advice works for many fields as well and made me motivated to continue on, thank you!
I love me a Ludwig presentation (the man knows how to teach). The pie chart at 4:04 killed me (it's important to be aware how limited your sample is, but also I feel he made that chart out of spite towards the people who ignored him) 😂 I liked the insight about clips (19:02); it's not even something I'd thought about but it does makes sense. Also, it's interesting how the youtube video structure (premise, bones, conclusion) is really similar to an essay (introduction, body, conclusion). The "yoink and twist" really seems like a good way of getting ideas from other people while being transformative at the same time (it's a built-in defense against plagiarism, which is pretty smart).
Thanks Ludwig 😊!

What I love about this video is that so much of the advice non-specific to streaming. Anyone wanting to find success with a self-propelled project - music, art, starting a business - should watch this.
i feel like this is honestly just really solid advice for making any kind of art in a way too
So glad these 100 streamers decided to give a small streamer like Ludwig some good advice on how to be a successful streamer
Wild Emma spotted
Hey! I recently started streaming. Like 5 days ago. And this video could not have come out at a more perfect time. Up until yesterday I've had constant growth, and gotten up to 2,000 minutes watched, 83 unique viewers, 24 followers, etc. And I really think this video helped me understand more about this hobby I'm starting.
So thank you for making this video, it's pretty motivating.
Honestly, great video. I appreciate it a lot.
I stream (very rarely/ occasionally, and not on this channel), and it's kinda fun. I've been thinking about doing it more often/ more seriously, and this has kinda been an inspiration to give it a try.
I'm an incredibly tiny streamer. I've streamed a few times, but only like 3 times with mic. It was fun, though. I recently beat the final boss of Elden Ring at level 1, and I streamed it. I had like 5 viewers tops, some of them friends I know and one random guy that showed up, but it was fun. And I think I'll try to do something like that more often. Thanks, man.
Awesome video, it's great to see the stats presented this way. Good job!
The biggest takeaway is to make something you’re proud of. Thanks Lud ❤
0:53 as somebody who has livestreamed before without a Mic setup, I'd take that as a win.
It’s nice to see small streamers like Ludwig already passing on his knowledge! What an underrated chap,
Appreciate this sincere video. Although I'm not interested in streaming it was still interesting to see the breakdown and compare it to how ppl get successful in other areas (there's a lot of overlap)!
I have no interest in streaming, but I found this to be applicable motivation for what I’d like to do anyway! So thanks for putting this out there Ludwig. I appreciate the realism you share of what you’ve learned from your journey.
Thanks for the updated tips Ludwig! I'll try my best lol. I've still got a way to go with my content, but I can see myself improving over time
I love that part around 30 min about being delusional. I definitely needed to hear that bit. Nice vid lug
35:00 That last point really hit hard.... Like, the fear of rejection is a real thing, but if someone's going to tell you what's good and what's not, it's your close ones, if they really care about you and your dreams, they wont sugar coat it, and you'll learn from them
Doing content creation and working on videos/streams is literally all I want to do. Doing that full time is the dream.
really liked your Vinland saga and AOT vids dude, keep up the good work!
@@kabirarya5381 mate thank you so much. That really means a lot. I’ve just hired another editor to be able to get more videos out faster.
You will never fall off as a content creator Lud. As long as you keep innovating and finding unique interesting things like you have been people will keep watching
he has fallen off like 3 times and he knows he has, he even has a whole plan b he started like 2 years ago, what are you on about?
@@notreally-sf3df I guess he just made it public 2 years ago, but i think he planned something like offbrand from the start and that's the end of his dream (small op reference 😉)
@@notreally-sf3df i think he means fully to the point where no one cares, not just doing worse than he was before. he still on
Thanks for taking the time to do this!
Im not really a streamer but i have done pretty big streams (for my size at least lol) and its always hard to figure out the right balance between consistency and treating streama like a massive rare event every time. From my experience yt works best for big events that feel more like a long UA-cam vid and Twitch feels like the stream every day grind type platform. I do wonder how simulcasting will shake up that narrative though
Low key Lud's a great teacher, and am inspired to stream because of him.
I gurantee at least 90% have failed already because they havent streamed once or wrote down notes
Thats how easily it goes to show who really wants it and who gets it
Didn't expect Ludwig to make this type of content, but he knocked it out of the park.
Love the advice. Another thing I would add is to do what you love and treat it as a hobby. If money comes that's great. If not make stuff that's great to look back at when you're older.
shoutout to the 100 successful streamers willing to help out this up and comer 😂 hopefully he takes the advice lol
Only 30 actually answered though
So, you did not even watch the video?
I got a stroke trying to read this comment

This is legit a sign for me to finally start. I told myself I'd start on week 2 of this month. January is almost over and I didn't start yet. I am so bad. But this is a great sign for me to start, My goal is to get nominated for QT's Streamy Awards tbh. Lol. But besides that, I think it would be fun having a job like this. Obviously money and fame are what many want and I'm not going to say I'm super different but I know that's not why you should. I'd love to be an inspiration to people and to cheer people up. I wanna travel and explore places. Obviously going into streaming with the soul purpose of money and fame isn't good cause that won't happen for a long time and could discourage you.
ive always had that pull to try streaming but always found that excuse to not go live. right after 0:46 i did some work to get my stream working and went live just like that.
played melee for an hour and got 3 chatters just hanging out talking about the game. quite frankly a little lucky on the viewer end, but overall had a decent time. just gotta work out some kinks and i could see myself going live again on my free time
it really was just that easy to hit the go live button and look forward to it again
This might be one of the best vids luds made. Maybe not for his fan base but for a UA-cam video as a whole
Good luck to all you other streamers/UA-camrs out there! We've got this!
Am I only one watching this without need to become a streamer?
Nope. I watched the stream live too, now I'm watching it again. Zero need to be a streamer tho
No, video has 100k> views and Ludwig has 5 mil subs he would have a lot of daily viewers anyway.
Yeah just watching for fun
I took everything from your 2021 vid to heart and it's changed me and my mindset a lot ever since it came out back then. Thank you Ludwig for always sharing your knowledge and experiences with us, and for being such a big inspiration!! that's a real LudW
You're so right, making something you care about, making something that's for you and by you, is really what it's about. As a streamer on my own journey, I'll watch some streamers rise really fast, and I'll analyze the things they do. A huge example of this is they'll often have crazy reactions. And I'm like, maybe I'm not loud enough, maybe I don't react enough. But that's not me, I'm not loud, faking the ways I reaction isn't something I'd be proud about. There are streamers who don't do that, who are chill and funny and entertaining, who are still more successful than me. So I can get inspiration from these streamers, but it's so important to also keep being myself.
thanks for the advice Lud, I'm gonna do all of this and come back in a year to see how its going
Gl homie! And just to brighten your vision, let me use myself as a relatable example, I used to have like 30 subs and just a 16 year old with a $200 laptop, so I could play only low end games. I eventually found a niche which was a game on Roblox, and I made a few videos on it and one of them popped off! (Was a combo with a character) so I kept uploading that said game and doing different ideas and eventually I grew from a few hundred, a thousand, to a few thousand, and eventually reached 10k! I also was able to get a new and much better laptop through UA-cam revenue (which I’m still proud of honestly). I was consistent, had a goal in mind (10k subs at the time) and built up from a niche. What I’m getting at is anyone can be anything if you just put your heart to it, and have fun doing it! So I hope you do wonders big man. I’ll definitely get back into the grind of things. Just had a bit of a burn out
@@BlazerBluu hope you do good to man good luck
Counterpoint, so many streamers get lost in the wash of twitch, including myself. When I stream on UA-cam I get between 50-120 viewers
Also the ability to skip around in a stream’s timeline is a billion times better than what twitch has. However this isn’t important to to everyone
UA-cam viewers are worth like, 8% of what a viewer on Twitch is.
Counterpoint is that if you only get em on youtube, they aint actual viewers.
I've used some of these tips as a guy who focuses a lot on UA-cam and uses livestreaming as essentially recording sessions.
I have watched a ton of UA-cam to get ideas for videos. Maybe I don't watch a lot of livestreams, but trying to come up with ideas for videos has helped me improve my streams.
And I fully agree that if you can't share your videos with family and friends, then that's an issue. My buds watch my videos. I've shown my shorts to my mom. It's more fun if you share your passion with people you love.
Lot of great advice here Ludwig. I've been trying this stuff out for two and a half years, and only now actually put my goals, inspirations and why to paper. I think it'll be helpful. So thanks for making this man!
Actually so insightful and inspirational
That's impressive as hell, you're doing awesome things man
First point is great. Just gotta start and keep improving every stream. Drop your streams below 🎉
TTV: Attackonthomas, gonna start streaming very frequently this year due to all this
balls/poopfarty
ttv cicitalks, went live for the first time today making overlays and playing with the backend of stream. I need a new computer tho so any recommendations of basic level computers I can buy for basic level games (fortnite, overwatch, etc) please drop them below. and follow the channel.
I've been focusing on youtube for now. I've been making reviews, and retrospective styled videos.
TTV Barnenn, been streaming for two years now and have not really seen any growth, and I only blame myself, I've made it my mission this year to make youtube vids and Tiktoks and youtube shorts and make my content the best it can be! I'm live almost every day and try to stream at least 4-5 times every week.
one of the underrated joys of creating & fostering a community as a content creator is being able to grow alongside them as an individual yourself, outside of streaming even. ive been a fan of ludwig for some odd years now and hearing him vocalize his changed perspective on goals being a point of reference, rather than a measure of success as he had in the past, is a beautiful growth to see in someone you respect and look up to in those ways.
the love you have for your community is shown in things like this where you aim to inspire & encourage others to pursue their dreams, even showing ways to start, and its just a really cool thing to see.
big ups in 2024 dude 🫶
Been streaming for a couple years now, a lot of what he said is very correct. I think the one thing that he missed is just like every ‘job’ not everyone is good at it. Streaming is entertainment and there’s 7 millions people streaming the same content. Be different, be entertaining, create a new streaming meta! Post it around and maybe you’ll get lucky 🍀
Good to see a big name seem actually down to earth and grounded with his suggestions, and not letting his position skew his advice!
The last thing you said "we have a sort amount of time on this earth make something you love" was literally what I wrote down in my "WHY" section. Really appreciate this video and advice bro ❤
i watched this live, i am ludbud
Step 1: Stream
Step 2: Become famous
Step .5: Dont have social anxiety
Love these sorts of vids from you man, great job!
Real shit, I started streaming the start of the new year and posting videos.
The best advice you gave was the family and friends thing, I hide my stuff from my girlfriend and friends. Really gave me that confidence appreciate you!
I asked 100 ex cheaters and made a powerpoint presentation on how to quit cheating
What you mean ex cheaters?
I don't think asmongold has any right to say you need to be funny lmao
Gonna be honest. The line "We got a short time on this earth, lets not waste making shit we dont care about" really hits hard.
i've been watching/known lud for almost 4 years now and i'm ashamed to say until now i haven't subscribed. some of the content just wasn't for me but this video is the one that made all the tables turn because this can be legitimately applied to anything someone wants to do in life and i really applaud you for this lud. as someone else on the comments said you really do know your stuff and you will always be the best even if you're not "at the top" because you actually know what you're doing. entertaintment aside, i think how you think is really wise. and in these days that i have lacked motivation/trust and hope in myself this video was like medicine even for little so i wanted to say thank you.
asmon: be funny
ironic
I will do a push-up for every like this days and post it on my UA-cam in 24 hours
no hes so right when lud says that the hardest thing to do when starting ANYTHING is doing it. ive heard from so many people who want to do art or make music but DONT IT. if its physically & financially accessible to u, u can make it work
Honestly, every year you did this content is nice, it helps a lot
i love how genuine this was
This video was super motivating!! I've wanted to branch out more on my streams recently, create some shorts/clips and connect with some new people but have been too worried about what could happen instead of just jumping in and trying it out. At the end of the day, you never know how things are gonna go unless you try and this video helped remind me of why I stream and want to continue for as long as I can, thankyou again!!
i feel the best part of being a streamer is being able to create your own community and just make ppls days just by playing games and having fun
The thought of streaming never once crossed my mind until a few months ago. Been watching streams since 2022 and I’m still not exactly sure what I want to do, but nonetheless, this video was incredible. Such amazing advice throughout the whole thing (except that very very last bullet at the bottom HAHA). Well presented and quite inspirational.
Ludwig, I have no ambition of being a streamer and whatnot at all, but I found this video to be very informative and grounded me in the difficulty of people willing to make this step. It also made me realise that; the moments where I thought, "maybe streaming could be something for me", would be better to delegate it to " things I could just write about and enjoy it for myself". Gaming for me is a hobby, and producing video content would likely have 0 commentary, because I'm not interested in the whole; presentation side of things as you're hosting the stream v.s. just streaming something you enjoy and hope it catches on. It's cool that you brought forward the perspective of "Mr 10.00", which still represents a success percentile wise, but if you quantify the total viewer count it pales in comparison to the top top top percentile.
On the last point about showing your work, I have an interesting anecdote. I was always the youtube guy in our family, I watch a ton of it and I send people videos and I talk about cool things I've seen, but I was never really serious about making videos and when I did make a few I mentioned I was making them but didn't show them off. Recently my sister has decided to make a channel, and she's been killing it. She just recently hit 10k subs and she has some videos with over 50k views, but even when she wasn't killing it she told our family group chat that she put a video up, and when my grandfather who lives far away came over she showed him and asked him to subscribe. I'm interested how far this will go, I've already given her some tips from videos like these - alpharad did the equivalent for making a yt channel years ago - but it's gotten to the point where I can't really offer any more advice because I don't have a fanbase to have learned from
This is honestly a masterclass in any skill you want to get in life
The video was more geared towards streaming as a career, but honestly, you can still make content as a hobby and be happy. Being a creator full time would drain me, but occasionally putting something out there makes me feel fulfilled. My goal in 2023 was to learn guitar. I figured making some cover videos along the way would keep me accountable and give me fun short-term goals to work to.
My covers weren't as good as the ones from other creators, but it didn't matter because these videos were for me. I knew I'd get better with each video. I was surprised when my videos racked up a few thousand views, and I got some really supportive comments along the way. I got my first negative comment a few days ago and it was thrilling. Lud's last two points are really what makes any creative outlet worth it. You can stream and/or make videos and never hit it big, and you can be happier than people who get millions views if you have the right mindset. If you've ever want to stream, make videos, record music, learn an instrument, or do anything new, just do it. The best time to start is right now. You'll be bad at first, but you'll get better. One of my younger relatives (middle school) actually found my channel and said my videos were cool. That was easily the highlight of my year.
The main thing that sucks about making videos is that you'll quickly learn that your hairline is receding.
MAKE SHIT YOUR PROUD OF! These words very much resonate with moi aha I took my first attempt at content creating about a year ago, burnt out quick because I really wasn't a fan of what I was doing, also almost ruined one of my favourite life long pass times, gaming.
Currently cooking on a 2.0 reboot with a totally different direction, and already so much more interest in the future of it all.
Good shit ma guy.
I do really enjoy this mindset of streaming, of being realistic and honest with yourself especially with the goals. Many of the things lud touches on in this video I started doing before I even knew who ludwig was and while I may not be a big streamer or have any sort of income I'm really happy with what I am able to do and create. Streaming and video making is a creative endeavour that I believe needs a positive mindset going in and this video gives a great way to at least have a good mindset to actually enjoy streaming even if you don't end up "making it". Great vid lud
Currently watching this while editing a YT Short from a VOD cause I'm just now getting back into streaming.
Great video Ludwig keep it up :D
Ludwig's corny jokes sometimes makes you forget that its an actual person behind the screen, and not just a fucking youtuber, but this video really reminded me that youtubers are actual people who care so much about their community.
This is awesome life advice dude, not just for streaming.
Really nice update to your streaming/content creator video.
There's this one French streamer that streams every so often when he needs money called Alderiate
XD Learned from my French friends about this dude.
I have no intentions of streaming but im surprised by how genuine this advise seems. Good stuff
Getting marketing monday vibes and I love it
I honestly think that a lot of the time I spend silently Gaming and accomplishing nothing could potentially be turned into at least an opportunity for something of value, it would take effort and consistency but it’s not impossible. This video is definitely going to inspire a lot of people (including me!)
I have 0 interest in being a streamer or anything, but holy fuck Lud was spitting some fucking sage wisdom in this. Like advice I think extends far beyond just streaming. Great video.
As someone who does not want to be a streamer but is currently a teacher, I can say you explained this so well! I was able to understand everything and it even made me motivated to try! Great video.
I have a pretty good question though in order to be a gaming streamer is it necessary to be vocal or anything in any way, like do I need to have a mic and talk to my chat or is just replying in chat not good enough? I'm a newer ish streamer and I am terrified of speaking to chat or in general I feel way more comfortable and not as awkward just playing my games and responding to people in chat via typing in chat myself. I don't see myself ever being as big of a streamer as you or any of the others but ya 300 viewers doesn't sound bad at all. So what would be your opinion on this situation? I have seen other Streamers similar to what I'm talking about and they have a couple thousand viewers and they never talk or anything and don't really even interact with chat but yet have a lot of viewers so should I use just use them as my inspiration and try best? I just play casually and play games I like and find fun I don't play to many games at once and tend to play a variety of games at a time. Can you please reply to this on some way it's my biggest wonder with streaming and it is my current road block with streaming I feel like talking is mandatory with streaming and I've never heard someone say it is or not I get it might help out a lot more but I'm just unsure and am looking for some insight on the situation.
