Nothing. OBS is broken-ass shit. Even after all this time I am still frequently astounded by the depth and enormity of its various bugs and malfunctions. How the fuck the entirety of this new multi-million-dollar streaming industry is hinging on that broken-ass piece of shit software is beyond me.
You are crapple cuck, you don't get to complain about such things!
Seriosly, be thankful they even do mac builds and it works at all.

Life has been very chaotic for the past week, haven't had much time for recapping. However, what time I have had has been spent looking into Cryptpad. I quite like using it.

https://cryptpad.fr/doc/#/2/doc/view/B-Fjyag0jQB2PB-bCuDHHqY7JlVlMmxGOcGNw3LxppY/

This link is to the current document that starts recapping at page 210, where the google sheet left off. It's up to 220 now. You are now completely anonymous when viewing. I've also started tagging links with a basic prefix system that I'll organize later.

It sounds crazy how a game dev in the year of our lord 2025 decided to engage with content creators who like the type of games that they released, and not just pay game journalists for good reviews

Games of the past were made with proper consideration of the hardware available at the time and its limitations, as well as considerations of the then-current market and cultural zeitgeist. Games like DOOM, for example, didn't come about in a vacuum. It was developed with the hardware available at the time, and out of considerations for previous games, to meet the needs of the gaming market at the time.

Modern-day retro-style games are made without consideration of hardware limitations or current trends, optimized far below what the developers of the day had to manage. Someone that makes a DOOM-inspired game hasn't made a retro game, they've just made gaming slop that crudely apes DOOM, wears the tag "retro" the same way a trans person wears the tag of "woman" and fooling no-one.
This reminds me of Mario Paint. People who use Mario Paint Composer are useless. The entire point of Mario Paint is working within the limitations, when you add pitch shifting and timing changes and more than 3 notes per beat and whatever the heck else, you're just loading a midi and slapping a Mario Paint skin on it.
Compare:



That said, it's also a spectrum. You can take some aspects of retro games while ignoring other aspects, a simple thing to ignore would be technical things like sprite and memory limits. You don't need to copy loading screens and make your sprites start to phase out of existence when there are too many on screen like an original NES.

I don't really agree that streaming is an easy job, at the very least it's not comparable to just sitting down and playing a random game, and I'm saying this as a 9 to 5 worker (though my company is really flexible and I appreciate them for that).

I have never streamed before, but there were a few times in the past where I was live sharing my gameplay to my friends through Discord, and I already felt much more stressed than usual, now imagine that but with hundreds or even thousands of viewers. It may not be physically demanding, but it's definitely mentally taxing. And I haven't even got into many of the non-stream homework you have to do if you are part of an agency.
I think the two key things you need for streaming are an ability to yap and a little bit of narcissism. If you have those two things streaming is incredibly easy. The hard part is getting big enough to turn it into a job and that's 90% luck.

Nothing else really matters. Tyler1 has streamed with a cheap logitech headset for like a decade that he uses as a mic, Asmongold and Hasan watch youtube and barely even have to do the yap part some days, and your average vtuber struggles with the easiest of games.
