People seem to have such a misconception of how fun it would be to have a all digital job (Streamer, Youtuber, etc.). It seems they have to CONSTANTLY be working? I don't know,..just seems like it would be stressful having to constantly come up with ideas or stream the same game over and over for like 8-12 hours a day?

For a streamer this is true, but a youtuber just needs to have a bunch of ideas and you could film them all on the same day if you wanted to - even if you released the actual videos weeks or months apart --- On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?

Tbf, I dont even stream for work, and some days, I stream for like 6-12 hours depends on how much time I have. And its usually the same game until I beat it Though, like Damn_Underscore said, as a youtuber, you could record a ton of videos at once, and release then little by little.

Why do people just watch regular video game streams with no personality then? Lots of different reasons. I just watch through Both a Resident Evil 7 & Alien: Isolation with no commentary just because I wanted to watch a full play through with no extra bits. Some also use it when trying to figure out how to do something. Or if you want to see the story, or dont feel like playing the game. Or just seeing how others play it. Or for whatever other reason Even when I was playing Spider-man for like 10 hours one day, there were a couple people just hanging out watching... --- Currently Playing - Persona 5 Royal (PS5) Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
