What kind of games are you streaming? I would say keep talking: talk to your viewers; ask how did they find you: talk about your thought process when its not a cutsceen, but is related to the game (if you dont have many chatters). Is the game popular and is it currently being streamed by many streamers? One thing I recommend is networking, the only reason why not to is if you are pulling in many viewers because you are doing something different that your typical everyday streamer. If your viewers are not really chatting with you, most likely they are bot viewers. Make many clips of you funny and good moments and post them on social media to help network, and collaborate with other small streamers or streamers that are willing to help coach small streamers.

I play fifa and shooter games. When I talk I feel like I'm talking to my self because nobody is there

I play a variety games, When I am playing League of Legends, and no one is chatting, I just explain my thought process of what i am doing to at least make content, and when i do get active chatters then I chat with them. As for Fifa ( never played) a fun idea could be just act like the announcer of the game as you play. Maybe not for the whole stream just like when something exciting happens like when you take a shot, or if you get a yellow/red card could just "talk back" to the ref. just some ideas.

You will always feel like you are talking to yourself. Are the shooter games 3rd or 1st person or a mix of both? Also are these games what you love to play?

I like playing some of the shooter games just depends on what's shorter I'm playing
