Their own personal interest in the game is a variable, too, but I've watched a lot of streams for games I love that just went fucking nowhere because the streamer couldn't get the hang of it.
Off the top of my head, I was excited to see Luna play THPS because anons had mentioned she played it before and those are legitimately fun games (you don't have to care about skateboarding at all, they're actual video games) but Luna never even left the tutorial area. She just rolled around, going up and down ramps, and I think occasionally she hit an ollie or something. I swear to fucking God, she could do that in real life. THPS is a game where you go flying through a city at 40 MPH grinding along the rooftops of buildings and chaining moves together to create huge combos, but she looked like an actual real life skateboarder for the entire stream and it was fucking boring.
Same thing when a girl plays a fighting game or FPS I like. I don't give a fuck about grinding MMR or tournaments or anything like that, I had absolutely zero interest in Aqua's descent into depression thanks to apelegs, but even when they play a casual shooter do you want them to spend half the time respawning? It's just not fun to watch and it's not fun to watch them not have fun, especially if it's a game you like.
