God I just want to be able to do what I love. But fucking no, my PC has to fucking shit itself because it wasn't very good in the first place. What really pisses me off is the people that have great PCs but say that theirs are slow.
Like holy fuck. You have NO fucking idea what slow is. You wouldn't fucking survive a day on my PC, or any of the PCs I've streamed on in the past.
I mean yeah, in a sense I'm being the same way, I know people have it worse off than me, but for all my life, and what I want to do in life, is all dependent on my PC. I can't be a graphic designer when After Effects dies after 5 minutes.
I can't be a video editor when Premiere freezes constantly. I can't be a streamer when playing the lightest of games at 720p30 still causes the stream to die.
To anyone asking, "Well if he can afford Adobe products then he can definitely afford a new computer" you're wrong. Because I use my mother's subscription, which she gets a discount from her college. We aren't fucking rich.
If we were, this thread wouldn't even be a thing, because I would have no reason to fucking complain. Anyways, my bottom line has always been streaming to show others that no matter what hardware they're running, they can do it if they try hard enough.
But that's not even holding up for me. Because yeah, I could just turn my resolution down to 480p or even 360p, but that's not going to entice people to want to watch my streams when 720p barely does. I love streaming, it's the one thing I look forward to each day.
I don't plan on stopping, even with these issues. I'll turn my bitrate down, I'll turn my resolution down, I'll do whatever I can so I can keep doing what I love until I'm no longer limited by my shitty hardware. Life's a fucking grind, and this isn't going to stop me.
