Trying to become a streamer

Help

Hi everyone, I’m 18 and I need your honest feedback on my streaming journey. I’m feeling a bit lost, and the standard advice you find online isn’t helping me anymore.

Here’s a summary of my situation:

• The beginning (October 2025): I started streaming Clash Royale without a webcam. I managed to build a small community, bought a cam in December, and was averaging about 5 viewers.

•  The game lost its hype, and so did my stats. I switched to Rocket League, which gave me a boost (up to 8 regular viewers!), but that game eventually lost steam too. I tried switching up games and formats, without success: I dropped back down to 1 or 2 viewers. I was posting between 2 and 8 clips a day, but it wasn’t getting me any visibility at all. Between that frustration and personal issues, I burned out and took a three-week break from everything.

•  I’ve decided to stop obsessing over stats. I’m focusing solely on Rainbow Six Siege for the next 6 months with one goal: to be myself and build a strong community.

Currently, my audience fluctuates a lot, but I don’t get more than 5 viewers. My ultimate dream has always been to make a living from streaming.

Is my strategy of focusing on a single game for six months the right one? Do you have any concrete tips for someone in my situation, beyond the usual “make TikToks and talk even if they're is nobody "

Thank you very much for your attention
