This is an idle thought at 2:30 am and nothing may come of it, but A) I did legitimately enjoy streaming the one time I tried it, and B) I'm kind of desperate for activities that feel interactive where I can both have people and know what the fuck I'm supposed to be talking about, so have a poll, with footnotes:

* This is what I tried streaming before and I mostly enjoyed! So much reading, though.
** I suck at this game terribly but make increasingly elaborate mini-stories about the characters on each ship as I go so it may be entertaining to watch me fail and ramble?
*** I don't own this yet but I NEED to buy it eventually anyway because WANT. Granted I've heard it's not as good as Her Story but I can't stream Her Story, I've already played it all and as a game it has no real replay value.
**** I also don't own these yet but there's a couple that are decently priced and even some free ones, and puzzles are fun.
***** Look I really like seeing other people play these and debating options, so I don't know if anyone else has those feelings, so I include it.
****** Fair warning, I am basically terrible at everything but puzzle games, and I'm even questionable on those a lot of the time. (I mean, this goes for story-heavy games too, but... even more so!)
