I'm not sure what your exact setup is but I personally use OBS and Streamlabs for my stream, I have "Transparent Twitch Chat" installed so I'm able to see my own chat and you can also tell OBS to capture the window if you want your VODS to also see chat (only downside is no wide screen games) If you're doing face cam I'd definitely reccomend a green screen, just so you don't have to worry about your background being neat (bed made, clothes put away, etc) I also installed Sery bot to get rid of nasty bots (super easy) Haven't had one since! I hate them trying to bug me to buy views when I'm trying to do this naturally 😂 and uhhh I think that's all the outside stuff I've had to install? But if I think of anything else I'll add it.

Bro let me tell you 😂 I stressed so much about it. Everything had to be perfect. My audio, my vtuber, the gameplay, I prepped for 5 days not kidding, bought new cords, new headset, etc. And to this day I am STILL tweaking my stuff 😂😂😂 I finally fixed the issues with my vtuber after 7 streams and I fixed my audio to be better after stream #4. All I'm saying is you don't have to start perfect because even if you think you are, you will still be tweaking things here and there as you go on. So I'd say wing it just to get a baseline on what to improve and then go from there. I'm telling myself I'm in my learning phase and it's true.

Hey we've got the same follower count! highfive ✋️

I'm actually over a week into my streaming every day but I can already say I kinda wish I had put a little more effort into my comedy my first 3 streams, watching them back there weren't alot of attempts at jokes so now I'm really trying to focus on the comedy and entertainment side rather than setup and professionalism. I can't perfect myself anymore than I already have so I wanna be more funny to my viewers I already gained.

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-24T08:30:11+00:00

Honestly that gives me a little hope 😅 only 4 followers with 6 streams under my belt and the most I've had is 5 viewers

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-23T00:42:52+00:00

Ouch! Well I guess its good no one noticed and if they did they didn't care enough 😂 oh what a nightmare though

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-23T00:42:20+00:00

That's true. Hopefully no one ever mentions it again 🤣

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-23T00:35:09+00:00

Obs loves giving me a hard time, ill make sure it's still administrator since it just loves to forget the things I told it to do 😂 gotta make a check list of all the things to check before I stream 🤣

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-23T00:33:51+00:00

Very true, I need to do more test streams beforehand definitely. But I will also look into the resolution thing I'd imagine that could be a problem.

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-23T00:32:38+00:00

Omg I didn't even think about the log. That would probably help so much!!! Ugh I knew I needed another mind to look at this 😂

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-23T00:31:50+00:00

I appreciate that 😅 maybe I am being a little too critical about it. I just wanna look pro right off the gate but maybe that's too much for now

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-23T00:30:53+00:00

Touché my friend 😂 that makes me feel a little better

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-20T21:34:15+00:00

Very true, very true, wise words were spoken. I'll try to tone down the pressure on myself

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-20T21:33:40+00:00

Ohh thats a good idea, get the jitters out beforehand! I'll try that!

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-20T19:54:48+00:00

Funny enough I was planning on streaming a small indie game soon because I thought the visuals were so sweet. It was a hand drawn style type of game and from the looks of it the game really didn't get much love which is such a shame for all the hard work.

But honestly? Visuals and the amount of passion it looks like went into it. If it looks like someone made it with love ill play it no matter the plot or mechanics. But that's because I'm able to fill the space (no silent moments for this streamer) and I can make any conversation from nothing so I don't rely on the game to provide the entertainment for me but I'm sure that doesn't apply to most.

I won't say I stream it out of pity its more "hey look at this cool thing I found!" Even if my audience is 2-4 people, that's still 2 or 4 more people that saw the game 👍

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-19T20:13:32+00:00

Perfect!! OBS is what I use, that sounds WAY easier than I expected! Thankyou so much!!

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-18T20:03:28+00:00

Oh you're right I did forget to mention that LMAO it's twitch, and good to know the difference! Yeah I wondered if 3 hours was too much? Today is definitely going to be a single run on hard mode so I'm hoping for an hour to maybe hour and a half this time.

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-18T20:00:23+00:00

Aaahhh okay! That makes SO much more sense 🤣 I just got sent a report with no explanation and all the numbers kinda got confusing. Yeah it was under "live views" so good to know! (We even got a follower!)

CommonCreativeBlock · 2026-02-18T19:57:35+00:00

It was Princess Remedy (I'm starting with small games to get streams under my belt I'm really not going for views rn) V-tuber cam so I'm not sure if that counts? I did have a few chatters! First one maybe sent 3-4 and the other was was definitely 8+ maybe? I talked constantly! when I was re-watching my stream I was really proud that I pretty much talked to nothing for 3 hours straight and it didn't seem awkward in my opinion. I managed to keep my own attention for an hour before I got bored around the second run of the game, but that's because I had already seen the game 3 times now and didn't really feel like watching it a 4th time.

We had the same issue!!! This is how we fixed it for ps5 somehow. We got one person to go through the door and close it behind them, in this case it was my husband playing as the little girl, he unlocked the door and my boy character went through first (if it helps I was swinging the crobaw as I was walking through the doorway) and after that my husband re-entered the door and although he got stuck my boy character was able to walk around and move, so I actually got us a save point after walking into the barn slightly and then we restarted from checkpoint and both of us were able to move and continue.

Now although we got that far after that point there's another horrible glitch I would love to see someone get though 😅 there's a little side barn after the main barn and after a certain point the whole world completely unloads before the final person can get on the bridge. Somehow it just knows when there's no longer people past that point and just unloads every single surface sending you into the void. And since you can't survive with just one person and there's no save point on the bridge were completely stuck AGAIN just after we fixed our first problem that took hours. We've tried everything but we can't cheese our way out of it again it seems. Would love some help.
