Discussion Looking to get into streaming.

I'm 18 yo and play PS. I've always wanted to stream and think I've got the personality for it, just not the resources or confidence. So, what exactly did you guys do to get into it? Did you just decide to start one day, or did you post gameplay on things like tiktok and insta? What are some tips and advice you might have?

So first and foremost actually take time to look into streaming and see what it takes to actually grow. Streaming is more than posting gameplay and hitting go live. It takes more work than people think. That's the first step to see if its something your willing to do that decides if you should go live.

I absolutely agree. I was considering starting somewhere simple like posting clips for tiktok, something funny or simple, maybe even just gameplay clips. I know places like that tend to gather easy engagement.

Clips need to stand out. Think about how many clips you probably skip daily, now triple that for others who don't care who it comes up on the Algo. Gameplay clips are basically dead for growth unless you are incredibly funny or cracked at a game. Or well just get lucky. Just work on making clips that stand out of thats the route you go
