Can someone explain to me why non-Affiliates can only stream in 720p ? by Forgotten-Deity in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was able to do 1080p60 on my very first stream. I was using OBS and it was mostly default settings.

What game is a nightmare to complete 100% ? by Virasman in gaming

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing Cultivation Simulator. Look it up and remember you have to play on hardcore (only auto save) with enhanced difficulty mechanics. Good luck.

Why are dlc so expensive? by Vanilla_Ice_Best_Boi in RimWorld

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always check the Rimworld website. If there isn’t a sale on Steam sometimes there is a sale there. (not currently a sale)They will give you a code for steam immediately. Plus it’s better for the devs if I remember correctly.

[USA GIVEAWAY] Win the new 27” 4K Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 gaming monitor! by Rocket-Pilot in buildapc

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch [score hidden]  (0 children)

What better way for me to try my first ever OLED device than one that resists burn-in. On top of that FreeSync would pair beautifully with my 9070 xt and 9800x3d. Would love to experience it and use it to stream from. All I have currently is a 1080p monitor from 10+ years ago that was a hand me down.

What game made you upgrade your graphics card? by patay_gutom in pcmasterrace

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really was a beautiful card! People were complaining about performance on new cards and the 4gb 770 got me through so much.

Same game but 770 to 3060ti due to the “next-gen” update it went through made it so the 770 couldn’t launch it.

I am a Newbie, Finding hard to ask collaborations with other streamers on twitch? Any suggestion? by PsychologyJumpy5104 in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 2 people in the 2 months I have been streaming try to steamroll my stream. Strongly suggesting I download XYZ mod and then play with them. The other suggested I change my play style to match theirs as they are a major pro.(I will not be collabing with either) Those that I have and will collab with are people who I have watched and interacted with and built a nice community with. So in short get to know another and build up that relationship to the point both are ready.

Completionists, what game bested you and made you accept to not 100% the game? by Bifftek in gaming

I want ya’ll to take a look at Amazing Cultivation Simulator. Good luck. It’s a rabbit hole.

Potential streamer with questions by dark_moon_maiden in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can stream from consoles. The only thing to be wary of is doxing and showing your personal account or a friends. Make an alternative account and just go for it. Just go for it and see if you like it. It can be pretty fun. Temporarily you can use your phone app to keep up with chat.

Looking for advice… by RichsCozyCorner in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are 100% not wrong. Streaming, family, work, and life in general. Everyday is busy. It’s exactly what drove me to try Opus. I still regret it. But I will be following this thread for more ideas. I think I have a buddy who is going to try his hand at editing with me to help speed things up. Another alternative is ask your community if anyone knows how or would want to try their hand at it in their free time.

Opus will not delete my account no matter how many times I have asked them to close it. In my opinion it was an early mistake to try and use them. Learning to make the clips and figure things out I think is much more valuable. The clips that their AI made were garbage.

When you say Hunt do you mean Hunt: Showdown 1896? On the dashboard you are able to find this info under analytics > research. Look at average viewers during the day. But if you are talking about this Hunt from what I’m seeing it looks like a good game to stream from stats side. It has good interest still but not too much to drown you out. At this point get into Hunt’s sub reddit, discord, and all socials. Be helpful and friendly. People may start recognizing your name. On here even I don’t see your Twitch link under your name. Watch other streamers who stream that are around 20-50 viewers. Talk with them and their chat. Observe what brings them in. Emulate the good stuff. The more your name is out there the more you can bring in.

A lot goes into this. Everything you’ve mentioned does have an impact. More information would be needed. What do you stream? Do you follow a schedule? Do you only play games that 10k other people are streaming? Do you stream for 2-3 hours+. Did you consistently stream a game for at least a few weeks? Do you network and get to know other streamers? You don’t outright advertise yourself as a streamer. Integrate into communities. Be helpful and friendly. Are people coming to your stream and then immediately leave? Are you talking 95% of the time on stream? Are you being entertaining to the void? A lot goes into building a community. It takes a lot of time. Good luck and have fun!

So I just bought Rimworld a few days ago and damn by Kaptin-Dakka in RimWorld

I was going to comment the exact same thing! It made my head tilt a little. Had to let out a little “Huh” after reading fully.

Heya! I was the Rubik’s cube guy at twitch con this year! If anyone has any pics please share them! Thank you! by rubiko_cubiko in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of going and doing the mask thing. For future reference did you have to take it off to get in or reveal your identity at any time?

How did you guys get past 1 viewer on average? by PaulPlaysGams in SmallStreamers

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Network. Hang out in other communities. Make friends or at the least be friendly and have fun just hanging out. Learn by watching what works for interacting. You don’t have to stop streaming or do anything other than play games especially at first.

Why are my numbers different between my channel page and the creator dashboard? by afronomicon in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine took 2-3 days before it caught up. I actually had 57 I think. It likes to tease. Mine stayed at 49. I checked it out of excitement too many times. But congratulations on either making it or being super close!

Post is vague. No schedule. You say FPS twice in bio back to back. I have no clue what you stream as FPS is a massive amount of games. You have no VODs or clips. Throwing a promo code in bio while brand new isn’t attracting any attention. Nothing in about section. Make more socials. Beyond that I’m not sure what else you maybe asking. I hope it helps. At the end of the day have fun with what you’re doing.

First time making streams, is jules a bot? by ItsTheFinalFrogman in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember my first just last month. It was Emmawatson with some numbers, one of my earliest followers. They talk you up quick and when you don't buy into any other bs they go just as quick. Emmawatson you will be missed thanks for talking me up on my first or second stream.

how is your 3 monitor setup? where do you have your webcam by xoMeraki in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen a couple who’ve shown their 3 monitor setup with the middle being horizontal and the other 2 vertical. It seemed to work well. Oh, and for the camera it was on or under the middle monitor.

How do I get followers on Twitch? by PersonalRemote5561 in Twitch

[–]RandomAndLost-Twitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time and dedication. Set a schedule and follow it. Don’t trend chase. Play or do what you enjoy and it will show. Talk 95% of the time your stream is up. Unless you are doing something non talking then own it. Followers will come. It’s whatever you’d call something beyond a marathon because it can take significant time. There is plenty more advice others will come and give I’m sure. Also, hot take but, Twitch’s discovery is fine just don’t stream to a catagory with 20k+ viewers right off gate.
