Are there any not-obvious "exercises" I should do to be better at streaming?
My two biggest issues are nervousness and having trouble with multi-tasking (playing and talking without losing my train of thought, for example) and I had the idea of just recording myself as if I were streaming occasionally and then watching the playback.
I imagine it would be pretty analogous to streaming with almost no views and no chat interaction anyway and with the added benefit that I wouldn't be embarrassed by the fact I broadcasted garbage.
Does that make sense at all? anything similar you've tried before?
And before you say anything, I know that no one is going to bat an eye at yet another boring stream on Twitch, that no one would care and that I would lose nothing by doing a poor job.
But still, I personally don't like knowing that I broadcasted something I personally wouldn't watch, especially since I know that when I'm not nervous and lost I'm a LOT better than that.
That's purely a me problem, I'm the sort of person who is deathly embarrassed for the rest of the day if during an argument on 4chan I say something wrong, a better man would say "lol who cares?" and I'm not quite that man yet.
