Most of the streamers who got big during fortnite's prime ended up like Myth. This isn't counting the streamers who already managed good followings elsewhere and happened to benefit immensely from fortnite, but for those who fortnite launched their whole career they did not fare well.

[@miskeenamina]

i love myth. he’s always been himself, and even though his viewer count has changed he’s still doing what he loves and happy. popularity comes at a price. im not sure if i would be able to handle the level of surveillance someone like xQc deals with due to his fame from his viewer count. plus when it comes to money anything more than the amount someone like myth makes, just seems like excess anyway.

[@humanbean3]

u have to be a narcissist to handle fame without it affecting you. i think one of the best ways to know if someone is a narcissist, is how they react when they watch videos/pictures/clips on themselves. a narcissist will watch with a big smile and enjoy watching themselves. a normal/"good" person will usually cringe at themselves. there are exceptions of course, but 99% of the time you will cringe at yourself unless you're a complete narcissist

Honestly the only few streamers that can truly survive thru all metas are ultra OGs like Forsen or Sodapoppin that has been there since 2014. People like Forsen can literally stream with only a jpg of himself and bajs will still watch him.

[@Trabsol]

It’s the people that have been able to adapt that have survived. Myth does the same thing playing fortnite, it gets boring. Xqc has survived, even though his viewer count has fallen down to 30k from 100k, KZbinrs like ksi have constantly adapted and actually grown even bigger.

northernlion has streamed every week since like 2013 too, there are plenty of OGs that have made it a decade

[@tompierce7084]

Myth is doing well now he's impersonating xqc in vegas.

[@Dashlab_]

the doc hasnt fallen off on yt livestreaming because he's entertaining. Same thing with xqc, it doesnt really matter what platform hes on because he has unique content no one else can replicate

[@khazms]

DrDisrespect didn't fall off because he caters to what's popular. Myth does not. He plays what he wants, usually pretty niche games. DrDisrespect is usually playing mainstream stuff and collabing with other streamers when playing those games. You can tell he doesn't enjoy what he's doing sometimes. But that said.. DrDisrespect is a character and for "Guy Beahm", playing that character is easy. Myth is always himself, so if he doesn't enjoy a game, he plays what he does enjoy. Unfortunately, streaming unpopular games will make you fall off, that's just how it is. Unless you built a core audience on a specific type of indie game or genre.

[@Dashlab_]

@@khazms xqc literally plays whatever the fuck he wants, he'll get 40k views while playing the most obscure roblox game, end of the day my point was myth is just an average guy who has nothing more to offer than gameplay for the most part. Its just reality

[@khazms]

@@Dashlab_ xQc is a terrible example and comparison because xQc actually doesn't get many viewers when he's on Kick. That said, KZbin is more obscure than Kick.

[@WoodssM32]

​@@khazms bro he averages 30k on kick and 40k on twitch, I can count on 1 hand the amount of streamers who average more then him, tf u mean he doesnt get a lot of views

[@khazms]

@@WoodssM32 Nah, the 40k on twitch and kick are all bots. Twitch and Kick have a huge botting problem. That's not to say the streamers are doing the botting, but their streams are botted.

[@KingAegonTheConqueror]

[@xxxyyy5167]

Lmao

[@Leinnn]

I think asmongold says it best. He doesn't fall off because he goes where the content is. He can stop streaming for a year and come back on the day some massive game launches or some massive event is happening and show up and be at the top of the charts. Content is king. If you're always where the content is then it's hard to go wrong. And that shows clearly when myth was pulling in massive numbers off fortnite on games like valorant and rust because that's where the content was at the time.

[@uszpdoz]

Well he is not wrong but given asmon 2nd channel still pulling viewership when he literally doing the opposite shows that people still watching him because of him regardless the contents.

[@Andres71234]

@@Max_JustMax did I miss it, do you remember where

[@climax050]

Being on the internet since its inception really made me interested in just what it takes to be a content creator and to stay relevant. The answer is that it has to be you, because if you tie yourself to just one game eventually that game will fall off or people will stop caring. That's why people like X and Doc and Shroud and all the others who have been around for a long time are all variety gamers. I don't envy people who have made their entire career off one game, it must be soul crushing to see that game die and then realize that people only watched you because they cared about the game, not you yourself. That being said Myth is a legend that lots of people grew up with, I wish him nothing but the best and will always remember some of the amazing OG moments he bought us. I have recently discovered that life is about the memories and knowing the good times and the fun you had. The tragedy is only that you can't see these things until they've passed. The great art is to learn to appreciate everything and be happy that it happened at all.

[@PrinceLobo-es8kl]

worst thing about streaming is you cannot enjoy your social life anymore, wherever you go people swarm you like crazy. I envy myth he got popular enjoyed the golden time of popularity until it becomes tiresome and annoying with people swarming you constantly, secured the generational bag and can live happy life , make family and shit.

[@XCVIIXCVII]

Wrong. It all depends on how much you stream your personal life. I know a "big" streamer who treats his stream like a job. and doesnt do IRL or anything like that. It depends how big you get too. But you said it like every streamer can't enjoy social life
