Install OBS studio and then just start. Youtube, Twitch, Peertube, Owncast... these are all valid choices for letsplay content. And you have to start first. See what you like, what people like. Experiment a bit. I think you'll mainly need to figure it out as you go. And also build an audience as you go. Maybe start with something easy, instead of some super complicated and elaborate setup.

And drop a link once you have something to show off.
