I don't watch streamers very often but you're entertaining. I've never had any interest in the souls games but I enjoyed watching the little bit that I was able to catch earlier

The best piece of advice I could offer with my limited knowledge on the subject is try to find the next Fortnite and get really good at it before it blows up. Which seems obvious now that I've actually typed it out but I'm not deleting it now. The next best piece of advice I could offer is to just keep being yourself and your audience will find you. Which seems cheesy now that I've actually typed it out but I'm not deleting it now. Anyway, wishing you nothing but the best

As regards this, yes - the best way to hit success is to be at the top of the pole for a certain game - any game. However, I don't think I personally am interested in that style of streaming. I want to be a variety streamer and if that means my limit is only 1,000 concurrent viewers (let's dream pretty big here) I'd rather that than play 7 hours of any one game.

I think as a person, I would burn out that way. The two hours of RL every day is as much as I would want to commit to one game, but I do think it is important to have something, especially when starting out as an identity hook.

So yes, being the best at something is a good plan - I just don't think it's my plan. I intend to build my longterm brand as a non-toxic videogamer and a decent person. Not as "the best at X". Plus I believe it to be far more achievable and sustainable.
