So whats popular for people to live stream, I see lol and starcraft 2 are way up there, but what about like SC:BW, OSU, Raiderz or other games? Would people be interested in seeing things like Yu Gi Oh Duel Network, since there is a magic online section? What about emulators like Game Boy, NES, SNES, etc? I feel like they just don't have as big an audience, also is streaming in 720p a big no no because people only watch 1080p?

Also, no I'm not trying to get so many viewers that I don't have to get a job(was recently let go and am just trying to find a hobby to fill the time), at the same time I don't want to stream just for the sake of streaming. I wouldn't mind having a small audience like 10-12 viewers to interact with(honestly I'm a bit of an introvert so anything more then that would be terrifying at first haha).

What about commentaries or me working in photoshop or developing websites? Any advice from any streamers around would be most appreciated! ARIGATO GOZIMASU!!!(Thanks so much!)

You're going to end up doing just that for a good while.

You can stream almost anything as long as you are:

Really really really really good at it.
OR
Really really really really entertaining.

Unfortunately most people who stream things are neither, so it is hard for them to get lots of viewers.
