Of Achievements, Trains, Let's Plays and Cakes - A Story of my Life

I don't watch streams that frequently. The only streams I watched so far are for minecraft to get a few ideas for new redstone circuits.... so I got no idea.
Might be hard to get a subscriber / fanbase with the current amount of streamers.

I'm personally not fond of live streams, but I'd recommend you to stream in the language you feel the most comfortable with.. The most important thing is to sound as natural as possible.
On the other hand, if you ever plan to upload playthroughs in Youtube please make them uncommented. It really irks me to hear somebody talking when the only thing I want is to know how to beat a certain boss.

Happy Cake Day!

Thanks for the train.

Bump and meow. Looks as though you have some good advice already; I'm not better qualified than than the responses to date. Thanks for the train!

Thank you for your "little" train. I can't comment anything on streaming but good luck!

I only hear English fluently so I'm biased but I enjoy Streams I can understand and the English speaking skill level of the performer is rarely an issue. (Poor recording equipment has always been a far greater problem.)

I do know there are a lot of people out there competing for viewers but if you have enough desire and the drive, that might not be too daunting.

I think if this is something you might enjoy doing, it's worth at least a try. Good luck regardless of your decision.

English will reach a wider audience.

Thank you for the ride

As an Argentine artist with enough years on the internet, i had learned that you will always get more potential clients/viewers if you do/write all on english than in your mother tongue. so good luck with it!
and i bet your english is better than mine anyway X3

As German myself, I'd suggest to start streaming in your native language.
I've watched a few German streamers speaking English and it often made my ears bleed and cringe.
Unless you grew up multilingual or lived some time in the UK/USA to drop zhe German Azzent, I'd go for streaming in German.

Not being fluent in a language while gaming, and thinking and talking... it won't be much fun to watch&listen.
And people who can understand English well (which most Germans do) will just watch native English streamers anyways.

tl:dr Die Nische an Deutschen Streamern ist größer als die von Englisch-sprachigen. Ich würde mir lieber die Nische mit weniger Konkurrenz aussuchen um erfolgreich zu werden.

I agree with everyone saying don't stream with the intention of making money (honestly at all...even in 2 years if you were still doing it). But yeah I'd try it out, and if you enjoy streaming keep up with it! But if you don't have fun, then I wouldn't keep doing it in the hopes that you'd eventually get money.

About the language, yes I think English is your best bet especially starting out, since the majority of the audience knows English, it might be harder to find viewers who only speak German? That said there are a lot of streams that put [ENG/GER] in their titles letting people know they can speak both, while still primarily speaking English.

I hope the streaming thing works out with you! I personally wasn't able to do it consistently because of health issues (it's tough streaming/being engaged for hours at a time...especially when you have to worry about health stuff as well) but I really hope you enjoy it and that you get better. :)

i don't like to watch this stuf fto much so can't help too much but thanks for a great train :)
