Drinking Whiskey and Playing Video Games: What the Fuck is THIS?!


HAY MY NAME IS JEFF.
 No really, it is.
 But let me tell you some about me. I grew up kind of knowing I wanted to work heavily in entertainment. The problem was that I wasn't always entertaining, but somewhere in the depths of my soul I had it. It just needed to get out of me.
I lived in Florida most of my life where old people go to die. Tourism is probably the largest industry in Florida, so naturally what else do you do when you get old? You just look at shit and walk around. Sounds perfect for tourism.
I decided though that I'd move to California to pursue a career in motion picture. Well, that's kind of on the backburner. After graduating grad school, I didn't know what the flying everloving fuck to do, so I felt it was best if I learned how to market myself. And that's how I found marketing.

Streaming on Twitch: How the Fuck did THAT happen?!

I've been streaming on Twitch since July of 2013. I literally called a friend up working at Fry's to ask if he could see my twitch stream from his phone. You should have heard me shout when it happened. You probably did. You just didn't know it was me.
But anygee, I decided after years of streaming on Twitch and my love for drinking whiskey and playing video games, that I would revamp my stream into something a little bit...different. If you've seen my stream before, it's nothing like it used to be. I did everything from the ground-up and I had a little help from some folks in the graphic design department.
But I've integrated a lot more than what you see here, and there's so much more behind the scenes than what you realize. It's a nightmare to keep track of everything, but I've had a blast integrating it all. In the future, you'll see video game reviews of a different nature here. If they're streamable, how they played, and other tidbits I'd love to share. I promise you though, you'll laugh.

 So without further ado, if you'd like to see what I have in store for you, please check out the stream. And if you haven't noticed...everything is disease-related.

Welcome to The DiZeeZ'D. The strain is alive! Thanks.

How to Tell if Someone is Viewbotting (and other malicious things)

There's an aspect of livestreaming video games that gets under my skin a bit. Viewbotting. A lot of streamers have done it in the past. In fact, I once caught someone viewbotting and looked at who the bots were "following." A laundry list of very familiar names showed up, many partnered accounts on Twitch with millions of followers. Well-known streamers making a living. It's definitely abused a lot on streaming platforms, sort of the "black hat" method of livestreaming. Thankfully, nobody I saw listed from those bot accounts was any streamer that I was supporting. I don't bother supporting anyone trying to find "get partnership quick" methods. If you want to build a business out of streaming video games , then please don't bother viewbotting. You'll eventually find you wasted your money and your community will likely abandon you. However, if you feel that someone is viewbotting, here's a few ways you can tell someone is...

3 Ways How to Stay Motivated When it Comes to Twitch Streaming

  This is a difficult topic for me for various reasons. Probably the most glaring reason that it's difficult for me is that I, among others, have been going through motivational slumps in the past several months when it comes to twitch streaming . For others, their stream is entirely a business so the motivation isn't really a factor; if you don't stream, it affects your standard of living. For others, especially those that are trying to establish their selves by "doing the grind," motivation comes and goes. It's never an easy answer to the motivation question, but I think I've been able to whittle motivation when it comes to twitch streaming down to 3 methods. Here they are: 3 Methods to Motivate Yourself Streaming A Quick Guide to Getting Back on the Twitch Track So, as before, these are 3 methods or ways for those of us that are trying to push the envelope when it comes to streaming—not the ones that are well established and make a living from full-time...

Cyberpunk 2077: What Else Are We Talking About?

CyberPunk 2077: Meeting My Expectations I avoided the hype. Stuck to what I understood about CD Projekt Red. Recognized that this was an 8.5 year development. Didn't stick to the lore. And admittedly, Cyberpunk 2077 met my expectations which, to be transparent, weren't all that high. The first demo I saw at E3 was arguably the worst demo I've ever seen—unresponsive AI, a crash mid-demo, and a poorly-matched pair of people representing the game—and so I felt a lot of problems might carry forth into the finished game. Whether or not I could stream the game on Twitch was also a concern, because if a game is going to launch poorly, you won't be getting much of an audience either. Sure enough, Cyberpunk 2077 launched unfinished. 8.5 years is a long time for a single release, and at that point, you have to wonder what's cooking in the kitchen. But I'll approach the most important question about the game that's on a lot of peoples' ...
