I Asked 100 Streamers How to Be Successful

ty for the shoutout bro, very kind of you. big fan.

Ludwig needs to make a video called how to not cheat and watch it himself

1:43 This is actually an eye-opener about what it takes to "make it". Man spent 600+ hours averaging 2 viewers and kept going. Insane. Thanks for sharing. Honestly daunting but at the same time encouraging.

I’ve been wanting to try out streaming for a while, so I’m super stoked to watch this!! Edit: Just got attacked 48 seconds in, and I quit lmao. But I’ll be back 💪🏻

I want to be a pilot and your "JUST DO IT, you don't need equipment" speech really inspired me however, I died

So glad that ludwig is learning how to operate a stream from the goats. cant wait til he hits 1000 subs!

In this video there were 3 different styles of pie charts. Their distributions are as follows: 12.5% - 3D Vertical, 25% - 2D Vertical, 62.5% - 2D Horizontal

His first piece of advice is spot on. My first few streams got either no views or negative views it felt like, but slowly over time people came. And if you make the excuse that your pc isn't good enough, well guess what?! Neither is mine, I'm running a fucking gt 730 in a pc I found on Amazon for a stupid low amount. It was litteraly just enough to get my foot in the door. I use a combination of obs and PS remote play to stream, the quality sometimes sucks but it's better than nothing. I've slowly upgraded different things and now I'm just working on getting a new pc.

Man this can be applied to anything that you wanna do. This lud guy know his stuff.

Ludwig saying he's never actually wanted to be a talk show host is funny because I could listen to him talk for hours on end, he's such a good speaker

i ate a croissant one time

This morning, i got sent this video by one of my biggest supporters. I have been streaming (for the most part) multiple times a week since October of 2020 and for the most part, have not gotten anywhere. After my hundreds of hours of experience, I believed that i had thought of every possibiilty for what I might be doing it wrong and since I've never had the money for professional equipment, I've blamed it on that. But this video changes EVERYTHING. It gave me some much needed perspective on what streaming should be as opposed to the false conceptions I had built about what it was. It showed me what I can do better and the next steps I need to take to become the streamer I want to be and got me out of the trap I have been keeping myself in for the better part of the past few years. To those of you who, like I had, have put in the time and believe there is nothing to do internally to better yourself as a streamer, I encourage you to watch this video as many times as you need to and keep an open mind that being trapped in that mindset might be the very thing keeping you where you are. Dont be afraid of being wrong or making mistakes because the truth is youre going to fo that a lot. Everybody is. Failure is the best teacher. If you read this, thank you. I'm aware that there could be people replying to this saying that nobody asked and I know that. I didnt do this for them, I did this for you and I did this for me. I had to get this out of my system.

I have no intention on streaming but all this talk makes me realize to just do the things I planned to do instead of just theorizing over them. good stuff.

0:41 - Step one: go live at least once! 2:16 - Why you should listen to Ludwig. 4:34 - The perks of being a streamer. 6:21 - The negatives of being a streamer. 8:35 - Why doesn't everyone stream? 12:20 - Before you start, write these down. 15:41 - Ludwig's list. 17:15 - Where should you stream? 19:01 - Stream for the clip (YT shorts/TikTok moments) . 21:30 - How to stream for YouTube videos. 23:20 - How to find ideas (what do you do when you go live?) . 27:00 - The "Yoink and Twist" method. 29:40 - Be delusional (it's okay to dream big) . 31:22 - What is the most important statistic? 33:12 - Everyone falls off (so make something you care about) . 34:37 - Final steps.

36:44 last bullet is my biggest inspo for streaming

This was inspirational because it doesn't just apply to streaming. A lot of the advice here is great for pretty much any creative field out there.

What a phenomenal video. Not only does Ludwig's advice apply to streaming but its also great life advice. Super well done!

I totally agree with your perspective on streaming. It's not all about being flashy and famous, but more about the journey and the joy of gaming. At the end of the day, as a streamer, you should just focus on doing what you love.

Tarik got it spot on honestly, you can't get lucky without the position to get lucky so you need that small skill as foundation for you to be lucky

Your first video on how to become a good streamer was really what pushed me to start streaming in the first place, and having a follow up to it was but really cool to see especially having info from other streamers!
