Hi! For lightings, I think you can find a variety of cheap ones on Amazon or your local e-commerce website For Mic, if you have a tight budget, I recommend USB mics like: - Blue Snowball - HyperX solocast - Razer Seiren They’re plug and play and sounds so good. Everytime I speak my friends always surprised how good the quality is. It’s more than enough for beginner streaming/recordings If you have tighter budget, then I recommend Lavalier mics. Many options as well online Hope this helps!
If you are doing just basic stuff, get either Solocast X for $40 or other cheaper brands like Haono or Fifine. If you want to go DIY route and make a mic for cheap but sounds decent, get BM800 microphone for housing (or empty housing that is OPA Alice compatible) and use OPA Alice to build a condenser microphone (<$50 for internal parts). However, you will need minimum phantom power to power this mic.
I don’t have anything fancy. When I started I was using a cheap webcam that I got given and the Logitech g335 headset mic that I got as a birthday gift. For Christmas that year I bought myself the Razer kiyo x when it was on sale and for my following birthday I bought the hyper x solo cast when it was on sale. I’m coming up to my third year of streaming and still use the Razer kiyo x and hyper x solo cast - they were cheap and affordable at the time and one day I’d like to upgrade to better but for now they’re good enough for me
I'd go for the Shure, because the SoloCasts sound conventionally good, but not for VO. And the Yeti is just pure garbolium. None of these will sound particularly "good", but if you don't wanna pay for an interface, the Shure will do somewhat do the work.
I would suggest hyperx solocast that’s what o have been using and it’s good
For something within the scope of your budget -- Simgot EM6L or Kefine Delci AE. If you are going to marry him in the future then get the Kiwi Ears Astral. According to reviews and this subReddit Top 5 Best for Gaming it is the best for gaming overall. For better audio pick up and less axis noise, get him an external mic (Hyper X Solo-Cast) that'll be plugged into his PC. Also a DAC too like the TRN Black Pearl among others to clean up audio signal from PC. 
i love my hyper x solocast
Eu uso um hyperx , solo cast n tenho do que reclamar
Eu nem uso software kkk so pluguei e uso a anos
I actually don’t like the blue yeti. I’ve been using the HyperX Solocast (runs about $60 cad) and the quality is fantastic for that price range. It’s pretty small, I used it to stream from my bedroom floor when I first moved in before I made a real setup. Now it’s on a boom arm and it’s even better! You will need to speak into it, it doesn’t take in sound from all angles, but it also means it doesn’t pick up a ton of background noise.
Se for só pra jogar com os manos eu não acho que compensa, até porque a compressão do voip vai estragar a qualidade de qualquer mic, mas se tu tem a intenção de criar qualquer coisa que envolva gravar sons é praticamente obrigatório. Eu não sei desses da Fifine mas a galera fala bem, eu tenho um Hyperx Solocast e ele é ótimo.
