Any tips for streaming games?

I don't expect to get famous. I just want to play games and if by chance 100 enjoy it then that's great.

Be funny, if you aren't funny n1curr basically. Unless you're a really elite competitive player at something anyway.

Be funny or be good or give away stuff or be a hot chick.

Preferably more than one of these.

Basically summed it up pretty well. Interact with viewers constantly. Consistency is key too.

Endless promote your channel and insist people "rate review and subscribe"

If you just want to stream without giving a damn just stream. I stream my PS four sometimes and due to promotion on hf i get about ten viewers at most. I'm awful though and lounge keeps telling me that

Be yourself and try not to pimp the "like comment subscribe" ********. Just be chill and fun. Honestly, if you're not that naturally funny don't try and just make jokes to look funny. People see through it. Be authentic.

And yeah, try to talk to your subs/viewers.

Be consistent and stream a lot. It takes a lot of time investment and consistency to get viewers. If people know when you're going to be on they are more likely to come back. Just popping in at random unannounced times means you'll never get repeat people.

And don't worry about the number of viewers you have. A lot of people are streaming on twitch. Very few of them get viewers. Even 100 can be an accomplishment. Just have fun and act natural. The views may or may not follow.

Thankyou all

I don't expect many viewers I'm just doing it because I figure why not. I got the capability to.

I have given streaming a thought, but I am nervous as hell about it.

I would just say to be yourself and don't try to be someone that you're not.

That's a good start, most people now-a-days only start streaming to try to make money.

Relax, be yourself, interact with chat, don't worry about the view count, and have fun. If you don't have any viewers (and it's likely you'll jump between 0 and 10 for a while) just keep talking to yourself (and people in your game if you're playing a multiplayer game) if you have to. Not many people enjoy watching someone who isn't having fun and never talks. And don't call out people who are lurking in your channel, people sometimes just want to watch a stream.

Also, be sure to test out all your stuff to make sure it works properly and that your mic/game volume isn't too loud/quiet.

I had a couple friends watching my stream. Something about my mic sounding like I'm echoing. A better headset would fix or a yeti haha (I'm not getting one)

What's there to be nervous about really? Starting out you'll just get single digit viewers if any and if they don't like what is happening they'll just shift on to another stream.

Worst case you'll get some smart ass comment in the chat which happens to everyone because internet.

I get nervous about a lot of things that normal people wouldn't be nervous about. I don't know why.
