I would think people who live with their parents might play for 24 hours straight. Otherwise you need to make your living. And audience is always what I wonder about. Sometimes some stupid stuff has millions subscribers and then something decent very few. And content seems to be important but seems like when you get into the top you are there, like with everything: social media, you tube etc.
I don't know know much about video games but agree about tv. Don't find it entertaining. So I guess video games are ok but in moderation. I think lots of people are addicted to them.
Well, streamers, the ones that I have seen, tend to be in a younger age (20s) and, apropriate to that, in professions like younger people are: students, about nestlings I don't know, but it's inside the frame of the possible, but there are also folks among them which talk like they have a normal work schedule. Well, latter admittedly often belongs to that group which declines to do a 24h-stream - or they just do it once in a while, like once a year and then when they're on vacation time.
For the audience - that audience you can perceive through the chat, which requires having an account at Twitch -, it's pretty mixed who watches. You get that through the lines they drop in the chat sometimes. There you can find people all differing kinds of life situations, with children, without - whatever. Well, maybe elder people you don't see much on there, but that's perhaps still due to that fact that the first generation to grow up with computers still is not in that age. I'd expect that to change over time.
Choosing games to play yourself these days seems like it has even gotten more complicated 'cause there's so plenty of fish in the sea, but ever finding anything that's really good or standing out, that's tough. As I said, in that point streams even come in handy as for giving you tips. Also they give you negative tips, like making clear for you what game really isn't your cup of tea.
Not only playing long hours but having some effect on your conciseness, like I heard some people have seizures from kind of being in 3d space like it's you. I mean when you see your character and play as a third person is one thing and another as if it is you. I would think it would freak your brain.
No, I heard just from playing video games without glasses or whatever they are called. If it is long enough some people freak out from acting like a first person in a game.
