The new trend of gamers live streaming as they play has interested me for awhile. I have thought many times about buying a camera and looking into getting a Twitch account. I'm not sure I fully understand the lure of streaming. I would much rather play a game myself than watch someone else play.
One part of streaming that appeals to me is the opportunity to watch the top players. You can learn a lot from simply watching how another person plays and maybe learn some new tricks to help your own game. The only streaming that I have watch has been celebrity streaming. It's fun to watch someone who is a little famous messing around in a game. I've enjoyed a little bit of Felicia and Ryon Day streaming some games.
I would like to stream myself but I'm not sure I have the personality for it. There's something that seems a little kooky about sitting by yourself and talking to your game. I'll admit to the occasional outburst when something really stupid or unbelievable happens. Also, as a teacher, I'm not sure how appropriate it would be for me to be swearing at a game while possible students are watching. I also don't think I have the skill to be someone who people would enjoy watching. Do you really need skill to stream or is it more about fun moments in games?
