The PAX East panel, “Create Content Not Debt” aims to help aspiring streamers and content creators with the financial side of streaming. Many gamers want to get into streaming or content creating, but they don’t have the budget to afford the equipment necessary. The content creators hosting today’s panel hope to offer options that don’t empty gamers’ wallets.
The official website states that “The cash barrier has kept a lot of people from starting or progressing in live streaming and we want to put this panel together to help people start to put their dreams together without breaking their bank.” The panelists include content creators JrocTheGod, AshSaidHi, Finamenon, LittleLeggies, and ThePresidentNoir.
For many gamers, streaming feels like a dream job. Who doesn’t want to get paid to play video games? However, many people can’t afford the prices to get started. Gaming laptops can cost over a thousand dollars, and that’s not counting accessories like microphones. In addition, there is the difficulty of finding viewers once you do get started. What can you offer that other streamers can’t?
The PAX East website states that “This panel is truly important because of so many people who felt they couldn’t succeed because they couldn’t justify paying thousands just for a chance.” The panel discusses cheaper alternatives to the expensive equipment, offering budget-friendly ways for an average gamer to get into streaming and content creating.
With Trump’s tariffs affecting the gaming world through raised prices, streaming and content creating is bound to get more expensive in the near future. A PAX East panel like this one is even more relevant now than usual, and it can help aspiring streamers to achieve their dreams. Unfortunately, as prices get higher, even cheaper alternatives might not be so cheap in our uncertain future.
