    “Don’t focus on growth,” this spoke to me because I already do this with the other things I do. While I’m considering on starting a TH-cam channel and maybe streaming, currently I write fanfiction. I’ve seen so many people stress about the numbers, and how to get noticed, instead of trying to improve their writing. They want the large followings other people have in the blink of an eye without doing the work to achieve it. You’re right. If you work at something, eventually you will see your efforts paying off. I’ve seen it with fanfiction so I would think it’s the same on TH-cam and twitch.

    • @fuzzoro
      @fuzzoro 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      @@darkman699 WoW is an "old" game with entrenched players that typically already know the content of the game and already have their "favorite" streamers to watch for that content. Watchers of WoW streams are more than likely players of Wow and would rather be playing than watching a rehash of content they already completed or would rather complete themself. If there is a WoW streamer with a ton of viewers then the viewers are probably there for the streamer and not to watch them play. That's not to say you won't get viewers playing it, but it's highly unlikely that you will get many if any.

    • @OrangeAceGaming
      @OrangeAceGaming 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That would be cool to have, but I wouldn't call that a goal, personally. Alpha has talked about this before, but essentially, getting a certain amount of viewers is reliant on other people watching / following you. A goal is something that you need to have complete control of. Such as, "I'm going to upload one video each week."
      Idk if this is helpful at all or not, but this is a big takeaway I've kept close to my chest.

      @Balakeh as mentioned in this video, the hardest part is starting, then the hardest part is continuing. If someone makes 6 youtube videos and stops, then wonders why it's not working, it's because they're not continuing to show up, continuing to experiment, and continuing to improve. I see this all the time.
      Answering all your questions in a post is not realistic. And frankly, the 'science' will be different for everyone.
      If you don't put in the work to consistently show up, then people won't find you, you won't improve, and you won't grow. I merely shared one concept that I believe is one of the largest factors stopping people from succeeding.

If you're that same guy that makes 6 videos, of you breathing heavy on the mike, playing a severely over-saturated game, while being avg in skill, then "showing up" isn't going to do anything. You'll just keep doing the same mistake you did for your first 6 videos, if you make 52 videos. You will have just wasted time. Re-evaluate, figure out if you're filling in a niche, or if you stand out. 99.9% of streamers can barely get over 5 active viewers. The common thing is that they're all playing over-saturated games, at mediocre skill, while breathing heavy on the mic.

It's crazy and it takes real effort.

      Adam Klase in honesty; pretty close to that. It’s my personality. We (my community) have a phrase coined called hashtag quality content. For bad or good something fun or funny or silly or surprising always happens every stream. Usually not in my favor. Add that in with a sarcastic goof and people find me entertaining. Ya not much a separation from everyone else but that’s what i’ve found.
      I’m an okay potato in fps games and decent in other games so people don’t come to see the best gameplay.

    As someone who had been watching way too many of these types of videos, yours stands out because it really focuses on the MINDSET that you have to have and I 100% vibe with it. That entrepreneurial mentality that is healthily competitive with others and yourself, is always accountable for your own improvement and success, learns from those who are at the level you want to be, and is never complacent. I feel like that’s not just a collection of skills used to be successful on twitch, but successful with anything you choose to pursue!
