Yeah, a lot of people, especially younger folks that want to be a streamer, miss the fact that people don't watch streamers just to watch someone play a game, they watch them because the streamer is entertaining.

Unless you're an absolute god at whatever game you're playing, nobody wants to simply watch you play a game. People come for the live commentary and audience interaction.

Being a successful stream takes charisma and cleverness, and being clever and charismatic for 3+ hours straight to entertain your audience can be exhausting.
