After fiddling with my settings and hardware over the years, I can't seem to strike a balance between the quality of my voice, and the actual volume of it, along with the game. I have some questions to help me get a good setup:
• Is my voice in current Twitch Streams too quiet?
• What level is your volume normally at in Youtube/Twitch, and is this too low for my stuff?
• Which of my series had the best audio volume in your opinion?

Twitch does seem to be pretty quiet for me. I have to max the volume on the stream as well as on my laptop. If i happen to be doing something else while watching, I usually have to use a bluetooth speaker which solves the issue entirely.
As for which series had the best audio, I'd have to go back and check. I do remember all of your older stuff having good levels. It might just be everything recorded just for Youtube being good?

It's a bit quiet, I noticed, during the MMBN playthrough. Might have to do with the tinny GBA chiptunes though, the highs drown out your voice.
• What level is your volume normally at in Youtube/Twitch, and is this too low for my stuff?
I listen to everything with headphones so I generally adjust my computer's volume to comfort level. With MMBN I kept it low because of the loud music, while Arcanum for example sounds wonderful even at high volume levels.
• Which of my series had the best audio volume in your opinion?
Pretty much all the games where you can adjust music/sfx/voice levels independently sound great to me. And like Jussi said your older ones sound good. I rewatch your jrpg LPs often (Tales, Wild ARMs, Suikoden, Terranigma) and those all sound quite good.

I've never really noticed an issue with the game audio being louder than you. In fact, some of the games often seem too quiet. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad your voice is front and center for your LPs, but when you played Vampire, I could not hear anyone talk without cranking up my volume. Since you play a lot of dialogue intensive games you'd normally read aloud to obviously keep us from having to pause and read or miss out on story elements altogether, it's something that kind of goes unnoticed. I would just suggest turning up the voice volume in such games. In general I have noticed the audio levels on Twitch vs Youtube are vastly different in terms of volume. I don't feel it's you, so much that Twitch is genuinely garbage and I'll probably convert to YT streams at some point, even though there's a stream delay, just to not have to deal with constant buffering and poor audio quality.

Raab and miek nailed it. Your speaking volume is more important (to me at least) than the game volume. I'll have to check out the streams on Youtube at some point. Twitch just feels better for the most part. More people I know in the chat for one.

Ah, Twitch Chat. Where I talk to myself for long periods of time about inappropriate subjects and make unfunny, gauche jokes. It's just not the same without the funposting with Skalade, though.

I participate... sometimes. Other times I am dead and can't think of anything to say. You set the bar too high on quality chat Raab. I pledge to try and up my game. We do need our favorite wacky kraut back though.
