Sport is a hobby, no one complains about that being a job, streamers are basically entertainers and that's a legit job too.

Playing video games is a hobby Playing football is a hobby Playing football is a job Playing video games is a job Just because games are 'supposed' to be played by nerds with no life doesn't mean it can't be considered as a viable job, because that's what it is if they're able to make money out of it.

由BoyMeetsEvil编辑： 8/8/2015 4:26:35 PMWhat skills are you talking about that streamers should have? Most people who watch streamers are kids. It's not that hard to entertain a 12 year old. You just have to sugarcoat everything you say and pretend to be a clown. That mediocre football player is putting a lot of work, time, and dedication to one day make it into the big leagues. The streamer is just sitting on his/her ass entertaining little kids.

With poor social skills, bad humour and not being able to connect with their audience they won't be successful. Your bias view on streamers only relates to a small percentage. And sure a lot of their audience are younger - they're the ones with the most free time mostly. But that doesn't mean its an easy job to do. Teenagers especially can be tough to entertain at times. I could say football is there to entertain drunks at a stadium but that wouldn't make sense would it. Because my generalisation only refers to a small amount thus making it a useless argument.

Isnt football to the fat guys that run around playing football on a Sunday? What about weekend Golf, Tennis, Rugby? They are hobbies, the participants have an interest in the activity and it drives profits for said interest. Don't you flex your brain when you play games?

That's your personal opinion.. But the people with PHDs and other more intelligent human beings than yourself have decided otherwise. Anything can be a hobby to start, but there are people who decide they love something and turn it in to more.. Like a job. To the streamers begging for money that AREN'T doing it for charities, yes it's -blam!-ed up.
