Resident Evil 2 is a sequel to the first Resident Evil title. Like the previous game in the series, Resident Evil 2 is a 3D action-adventure using three-dimensional polygon characters over two-dimensional pre-rendered backgrounds, with the action viewed through a variety of cinematic fixed camera angles in each room. Players can choose to play as one of two possible characters; each goes through the same initial scenario but with differences in the type of weaponry they find and the people they meet along the way.

What is Resident Evil 2 about?

The game is set on September 29, 1998. Zombies have infested Raccoon City. A biological weapon known as the T-Virus was released into the sewer system. Rats then spread the virus to the city's population. Two people make their way to Raccoon City: Leon S. Kennedy, a rookie police officer on his first day on the job, and Claire Redfield, a college student looking for her brother. Leon and Claire quickly find themselves fighting for their lives against hordes of creatures in their search for survival.

Should I stream Resident Evil 2 on Twitch?

11/100 · Closed off· 4 viewers per streamer on paper

Not really. Almost all of the 108 people watching Resident Evil 2 in English are already committed to the streams they are on, leaving about 40 across 23 other English streams. You would start around #4 of 44.

About 40 of the 108 English viewers here are not watching the two biggest English streams — roughly 2 each if you split it with the 23 other English streams below them. With ten viewers you would sit at #4.

Only 108 of the 157 viewers here (69%) are watching in English. 25 of the 43 live streams are in English.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.
