I think he has one but doesn't want to like promote his own stream. I'm just trying to help him out a bit.

First off, I think it's really dope that he's got a friend like you supporting him.

In terms of his stream, I'd like to think I'm a fairly positive person so I'll name the serious things that need to be fixed first because I do see a lot of potential for your friend if he's willing to put in the work.

- The stream is extremely plain, he needs to add some panels under his stream, get a nice professional looking overlay, and get everything looking legit. My best advice to figure out whats needed is to open one tab with his stream and another one with a "famous" streamer and compare how they're setup. I'm NOT saying to go out and copy someone else nor am I saying he needs to overload his channel with graphics and things. If he wants to keep it simple thats fine, just not plain.

- The webcam needs to be moved physically, that angle is terrible. The first thing I look at on a stream is the streamers webcam to see what they look like and who they are. The webcam is really where you the streamer connects to the viewers. I don't wan't to sit and look at a dark grainy image of your forehead and eyebrows all day bro. Also, on the stream I'd recommend moving the webcam to the corner, it looks cleaner and more professional, especially if you throw an overlay on the stream too. Don't crowd the gameplay.

- Interact with your viewers as if you had 5000+ people watching you at once. I don't care if not a single person is watching the stream, keep talking and interacting. DON't WAIT to see viewers before you start interacting. On twitch we're not seeing you in real time so if we come in and you're not being engaging, we might leave before your stream shows you talking to us. This will also help you develop your personality and character as a streamer.

- Be consistent. If you really want to make it as a streamer you need to be dedicated. Don't just stream whenever you feel like or whenever you have time. Make time, set a schedule and stick to it. People will get used to seeing you stream on certain days at certain times and eventually some people that always see your stream will actually start checking it out and following you.

Now, I'm not a professional streamer myself, so don't take my word as gospel. But I've done enough research and talked with enough successful streamers to know these and other things. If you guys ever need some help or guidance feel free to hit me up. That goes for anybody reading this.

He's not bad at Fortnite, but he's not a very good streamer. Been watching for the past 20 minutes or so and so far he's only talked to someone once, and it was to shoot down their suggestion. The same suggestion that was posted in here about moving his camera. Was going to chat with him but he seems like he doesn't really care he's even streaming.

right now he has limited space for his webcam. He was getting frustrated last night so I tried to help him with some things. Right now he's just trying to stream everyday.

I am trying to get him a new pc and longer desk so he can have better quality content and actually have a dedicated spot for his webcam. Right now all he has is like a little school desk with a 21 inch monitor and like a 14 inch tv he has hooked up for reading any chat during his stream.

He's really trying to work with what he has and right now it is frustrating him because he knows his stuff isn't the best. I told him just to keep going though until we get everything figured out.
