Well, it's essentially one man entertainment show, you can't "just play the game", you need to provide entertainment to the viewer.
That can be anything from "just" playing the game well and commenting on what is happening, why you're doing this or that etc, thru roleplaying (in games that allow that) to essentially using gaming as background for a bit of comedy
Something akin to TV host.... with no guests to bounce the jokes off, and having to do production themselves, for hours at end. And figuring out what people like and how to promote yourself.
