I Did My First Twitch Stream Last Night

Until a week or so ago, I didn’t even have a Twitch stream! I have no idea why I created an account. I guess I was bored. But I did.

On my first night on Twitch I found a streamer who was playing my favorite game — Stray. And I’ve been hooked on it ever since. I especially love watching people play Stray but I’ve watch streamers play lots of games since that first night.

And somewhere along the way, I thought — what if I started streaming? Would anyone want to watch me badly play games? I mean, I’m not great at most games. It takes me a while to figure things out.

But people always say I’m funny. So maybe people would want to watch me?

Last night, I finally did it.

I streamed Disney Dreamlight Valley (I’m very much a cozy gamer) because I kind of know what I’m doing there. Found out I’d forgotten a lot of it.

But anyway…

I had a bit of a hard time getting my microphone to work. I don’t have a headset yet so I’m using the Dualsense controller on my PS5. Once we got that worked out it was great.

I had up to 8 people watch and I got 2 new followers. Ok, it’s not much but maybe a start?
