this afternoon i will be doing my first major cast for blackout gaming. I am a little nervous. so my question to all casters is, what can i do to calm myself down and really focus on the game and what is going on?
I´m a shit caster but have casted twice now.
You´ll only be nervous at the start. The really good casters can entertain the viewers and have a nice talk with the co-caster at the same time. Just try and make it work between you and your co-caster. Let eachother finish talking etc. Just enjoy yourself.
Also, if you have a question about anything related to the cast i´m pretty sure jon and RussianGuyovich would be happy to answer your question.
Goodluck and Have fun!
EDIT: just saw that you´re casting with Ryushi. there´s no need to be nervous at all. :p

It's like standing up infront of the classroom to present your 5th grade project, you're psyching yourself out. It isn't nerve-wrecking or anything like that, it's actually pretty fun depending on who your co-caster is. Just think about it this way, you are going to be talking, with a friend in mumble, about a game that you're really excited for =)
For my first major cast I had a few drinks in me. But don't drink so much you have to pee! Wear a diaper just in case.
Seriously though, keep the stream chat closed, go offline, close your door, and give yourself only the game to focus on. Just think of it as a conversation with your co-caster, just you two. Don't try to impress anyone, just do what comes naturally. Good luck :)
