Right now, a streamer who goes by LaserBelch is playing Super Kaizo World 3 on my laptop, but this isn't his first rodeo, and he makes playing it look like second nature. Sometimes they might look defeated while a death counter spikes and a 'RETRY?' text box pops up rapidly.
Sometimes they look ecstatic that they've completed a romhack (an unlicenced fanmade game) that only a handful of other players have been able to finish.
There is often a rotation of streamers, many technically gifted enough that they are in the speedrunning community, playing a version of Super Mario World that looks punishingly difficult viewed through the monitor in my apartment.
