Take a guess, user.
If Chinese kids had access to Youtube, they'd want to be Youtuber as well. As it is, they will want to be astronauts, but instead they'll be dead.
I wanted to make dinosaurs.
Well into Middle School.
Jurassic Park had the opposite effect.
kill yourself, you stupid sack of shit
Because I want to be a rockstar.
Reminder: If you didn't get a significant internet following when you were 17-19 years old, it's too late for you to become a successful streamer.
Every single famous streamer started young.
the west can't fall soon enough
You could’ve been one of those channels that made money off of walkthroughs. If I had known about capture cards, I would’ve started a YouTube and recorded gameplay of every game I owned. I feel like kicking myself for being a console pleb in 2007
wrong
if you're a girl and you're over 25 you can rack in that sweet oneesan loving audience
if you're a dude though unless you're super daddy looking then yeah it's over
chinese wants tiktoker
i'm actually trying to make it happen, after doing studies i didn't care.
i just hope it will happen. life is quite complicated right now.
But if i do manage to make it happen, life will be a lot happier. i always loved vidyas. even if i don't earn much, as long i like it i'm happy.
Here's how it went in China:
>You want to be an astronaut when you grow up. What do you want to be when you grow up?
based epic store fanboy!
Only a complete dipshit would want to be an astronaut now.
>had a capture card
>was on Custom TV
>was streaming with a group of people
>we all were kind of popular
>I gave up because of guy had 90k views while I only had 45k
>this was in 2007-2008
If I had kept it up and switched to another platform I probably could have been one of the early ones.
>Custom TV
Meant Justin TV, No Idea what got me thinking of Custom.
>Solid 5 in the looks department at best
Next to no video game youtubers/streamers are attractive at all. Most of them are ugly fucks.
The west deserves to rot.
Based chinks. Burguerland is fucking over.
Youtube is censored in China so it makes sense that a chinese kid wouldn't write that down in their answer because they've never even heard of it before.
>whenever I stream I get over hundreds pretty quickly even though I never do
>naturally enjoy making people laugh
>too unmotivated to stream more
ELP
>tfw have a above average jawline, with a full head of hair. Also a broad body size.
>Contemplated losing weight and making myself Yas Forums for vanity reasons and to use said vanity to attract an audience.
If I play my cards right, I can probably make myself an e-thot. Maybe aim for the faggot audience with a "daddy" persona and attract roasties.
My main issue is that I'm shit at almost all Vidya.
Wrong, you just need good pr company and money for ads. And you will be successful even if you are 40 or 50 y.o.
>be an astronaut? LMAO that's so cringe lol why r u such a nerd and stuff lmao
because I never dreamed about playing video games professionally
a career in playing video games didn't exist when I was a kid, and I'm honestly happy for that
I could see stressing myself out way too much if I was playing video games to try and make a career of it instead of playing them for fun
Of course one of them is wearing a St. Louis hat.
Why does my team have to have fans like this?
i didn't want to end up grinding for some other company being miserable, so I work on my own game on the side and am pursuing an IT job unless the game sells well enough for me to do it fulltime
it's my dream to just have a place to stay and i just make my ideas into reality and get better
all i want really
When I was a teenager my dad told me I had to decide what job I wanted to do. I said to him I wanted to review computer games and he told me "no you're not doing that" thank fuck
I knew a guy who had somewhere around 50,000 subs and he deleted his channel one day because he was bored and thought it would be funny to get people running in conspiracy circles trying to figure out what happened to him.
Almost every streamer is garbage at video games. It’s actually easier and more lucrative to be a streamer than a competitor
One of those countries is going to be the world super power soon.
ONE
OF
THEM
the west died in 1914 just do whatever you want until the curtain drops
No they wont, stupid. Their country is fast-tracking an economic and trade plan that will put the West into servitude for the next 100 years. All because we're distracted with retards and clowns.
Does making porn fanart of video games count?
Honestly making a living out of being famous on the internet doesn't sound like a very comfy job. You have to constantly attention whore because your pay directly correlates with how many eyes are on you, so when you inevitably fall out of relevancy you're SOL if you don't have a regular backup plan. Most people I can think of who do online content creation for a living simply fell upon it by chance anyways, since going online with the explicit purpose of making cash from youtube views and such is damn near impossible with all the people trying to do it.
Based China. May their golden age come sooner.
Western kids all use TikTok now anyway, not YouTube.
SUN NEVER SETS ON TH' BRITISH EMPIRE
because the industry is abyssmal and extremely aggressive to the people who work in it
>Not nearly good enough to go pro at anything
That's because you don't try. Seriously, anyone can be good at anything if they put in the effort. Natural talent helps, but is no more than a head start. Figure out what you like and just fucking do it. Don't underestimate yourself, user.
I don't want to work 6 more hours per day than my current job and get paid less along with having less job security.
I still don't know why anyone would want to be a videogame developer when other jobs offer so much more time, money and security.
It's going to be a fucking nightmare for everyone involved when China starts taking over.
I wanna be a cop so I can bust bad guys ass, but I realize the force in my country is corrupted as fuck and they're the bad guys.
They wont take over directly (for now), but you'll definitely see a rise in Chinese companies in the West very soon. They're going consumer. Do you know what that means? Picture people driving Chinese Zotye cars around your neighborhood and local kids talking about wanting the newest Tencent game while making TikToks.
Because they don't think about all that, they just think "I get to kick back and play videogames!"
Is there such a thing as a...I don't know, TikTokker?
Empires die slowly. As the years go by, American hegemony over the world will slowly recede in favour of regionalism (the EU, Russia, India, China). The golden age is done.
it shows that he has no confidence which is important for whoring yourself out though
I hear you can make good money on TT. But I'm too old for that shit.
So what do you do
unless trump is a double agent in comparison Justin Trudeau is the reincarnation of Cardinal Richelieu
Because I cannot code.
Making music, drawing, and writing (at least for a game, not a novel) is easy.
Coding is not unless you're very tech-savvy.
he talks about computer games for free online
why is elon musk so happy about it then?
Good for them. Wanting to spread the virus to aliens. Aim for the stars.
It's already a fucking nightmare, what difference does it make?
China will literally not exist in 100 years lmao. Their next civil war will kill billions and will be glorious.
I have a friend who did that and was the reviews editor at a major gaming magazine up until the whole magazine industry collapsed. He did alright, makes a pretty living doing consulting for game devs/publishers now. Most people ended up fucked though, myself included, though I was in car magazines instead of gaming.
I for one welcome our insect overlords. Better than (((rats)))
That's depressing.
My childhood dream was to restart my life somewhere else completely without the baggage of my current life. In the end I failed myself, no different than my parents.
Chinks are the jews of Asia.
>muh civil war
