There is only one question people want to know when they hear that they can play video games for a job while having other people watch them play their favorite games!
“How Do I Stream To Twitch”?
However, that is a loaded question, because there are two types of people out there who ask it.
Type 1 has great confidence and excitement but no idea where to start with equipment.
They ask questions like:
How will I hook my console thing up to my computer?
Do I need to record?
What is a good internet speed, upload or download?
Can’t the PS4 or Xbox One stream to twitch?
Do I need a Microphone, what is the best one, but under 50 bucks?
Should I buy a webcam?
What software do I need?
I saw CMad has a chat mod bot, how do I get that?
And they get so overwhelmed by all the possible arrangements of gear and wires that they never start streaming. Instead, they just say that only nerds stream and they just like to play games for fun. In their hearts, they know they would be great streamers with their personality and social nature, but they just never figure it out.
Type 2
The second person is a truly passionate gamer who stays up to date on all the most recent electronics. They have their own custom built PC’s with giant steam libraries of the hottest games on twitch. They have been playing Day Z since before it was big. Yet, despite owning all the equipment our Type 1 player can’t understand, they don’t have a channel. They lack the confidence and when they ask “how do I stream” what they really mean is
What if people think I’m weird for talking to myself on the stream?
What if nobody joins my stream and I play these games by myself like an idiot?
Can I still grow a big channel if I don’t want to use facecam?
I’m not sure what to wear or what toys to setup in my background?
My camera is 1080P but should I wait to get a 4K setup before starting?
I just game as a hobby, I doubt this could get big anyway right?
Type 1 is willing to stream with a pair of apple headphones as a microphone if they can just figure out where to plug it in, while Type 2 has a 100 dollar microphone but uses it as an excuse that he is waiting for a better one before starting.

When I started talking to a flip camera in a dim basement, you better believe people though I was weird, but I had my goals in mind, not other peoples opinions.
