what's the hourly wage for those, anyway? 6 bucks an hour and 600 bucks an hour would be saddening in different ways

haveblue posted:yeah it's a lot harder than you think to repeat gestures and words hundreds of times in a row for hours on end you look at the top twitch streamers, and those people basically have to be 'on' for hours a day, every day, shouting memes and obscenities like a crazy person, while playing whatever battle-royale shootman game their audience of kids who wear basketball shorts year-round are into. they can't stop for more than a day or two, or a huge chunk of their subscribers will vanish, and even then, if you look at the list a year or two later, it's completely changed. it absolutely wrecks your sanity, but if you can make some money, you have to milk for whatever it's worth while you can, because it won't last

I can't imagine. even for ones that film themself playing a game with light engagement, it still has to be engaging. it's like being your own tv show, editor, and mixer all at once while bouncing riff raff and also not sucking at the game

the worst has to be the people who want to be that sort of person for money but just get like 0 engagement or money or interaction out of it, of which I’m sure there are sooo many. depressing to think about.

streaming requires absolute shamelessness or willingness to be a shouty-person BUT is so difficult to be engaging and entertaining while doing something else its like standup comedy sorta, its really hard to be good and takes a lot of grinding out poo poo gigs (streams) but enough about my streams
