First of all, why does there need to be a separate platform for gaming videos specifically? Why aren't there a separate platforms for food videos, or sports videos, or pet videos, selling for $1B?
It generates a lot of traffic, which is potential ad revenue.

Why would gaming videos be so popular to begin with? Why would I want to simply watch someone play a video game for any extended period of time, repeatedly? I could just play the game myself.
Why do people watch other people do nearly any activity? Entertainment I would assume. What entertains one person might not entertain another.
