Yeah I guess. It's better that than anxiously waiting for anyone to come in and then being too eager to talk to some random person who likely clicked your shit on accident
>OMG a viewer! Hello! What's your name, you like this game??

yeah, if you hear most of them talking about how they made it is pretty much
>Stream a lot, be a constant presence
>Get into events/bootlick what you need to bootlick so you become more known
>Hustle until you can get some deals in, which is where the actual money is
>Eventually hit some virality, keep growing and keep hustling for chances

wouldnt it make more sense to do yt videos first, gain a fanbase and then stream

i was really into a game once and decided to look up streams for it and the only one was this guy who was talking to his friends while streaming. he didn't even notice me initially but then we chatted a bit about the game

"i've already started watching stpeach's stream after yours is over, it's way better"

the comments don't matter, you will need a thick skin. What matters is pushing so you get into some sort of community and can leech from other streamers, engage with your viewers even on those days you don't want to, etc.
I love sitting on my ass all day in front of the pc, not talking to people though so I'm not a good fit for that

I used to watch a chick on twitch who got around 10/20 viewers. Randomly got bored one day and tried to find the best looking girl at the bottom of the list. She was cute and actually a decent streamer, no dead air. Completely forgot her name but I wonder if she ever got big.
