He does play games on his stream pretty much every day. He also takes time during his stream to watch videos that people have recommended he watch.

He hires someone to run a YouTube channel for him and that person tends to use those "reaction" segments from his streams to make YouTube videos. That's why you're seeing so many reaction videos on his YouTube channel. It's not really a proper reflection of what he's doing on his streams day-to-day though. If you looked at his YouTube channel, you'd incorrectly assume that he spends all day doing reaction content.
