> Streamers don't do any of that; they literally sit in their basement and play video games all day. Why do they need support? The way you chose to phrase this hints at your opinion towards playing a lot of video games. I personally have subscribed to a tournament host and various (ex-)professional players at times just because I valued the content they produce enough to be okay with giving money to them. > Does a streamer with more support produce better content than a streamer with less support? In many cases yes they do, because higher income can make way for dedicated streaming hardware, better gaming hardware, better internet connections and probably other things too.
