but holoID doesn't even attract that many natives until they had Kobo, so I dont think HoloID is a good example for the success of local natives
And really, why would anyone limit themselves to HoloGermany or whatever? Thats just pre-programmed pigeonholing. Just be an European ESL, someone who can serve both the english audience as well as have the cultural local understanding that locals can relate to.
The potential audience for an English speaker who streams to EU is much bigger than a pure German speaker, since the former could attract all the ESLs from different nationalities and not just limit themselves to 1.
In the end, I don't even want a separate HoloEU branch at all (if you thought thats what I am arguing for). I just kinda want the talents in a new HoloEN gen to not be from NA 5/5 times. In council, there were 2 Aussies. Why cant there be 1 or 2 EU girls be in the next gen (or ideally, they should have had at least 1 EU in Advent as well). The timezone distribution of HoloEN is kinda bad and a lot of girls overlap each other. It's not just about Primetime EU, nobody in EN does any sort of morning hours stream (that are popular in JP) as well. That entire timezone is dead and even if nobody is breaking any records streaming at that time, there would still be a benefit over not streaming at all.
not a big fan of when Streamers are friends with their mods but so far nothing bad has come of it so I hope it stays that way
