General Vtuber Discussion (V1)

[EliteDoragon]

I believe Fauna just announced her intention to stream on Twitch.

More of them should. Its literally free money. Stream there once a week for watchalongs or w/e and they can get so much more money its not even funny.

I'm still very confused on why tardos on twitter keep thinking that getting a model is very expensive. Vroid is free and takes minimum effort, and is even easier if you're willing to spend a few bucks, vseeface is free, and there's about a billion different free tracking programs you can use on your iPhone, or a single program in general you can use on Android, because meowface got africanized.

I wanted to horrify my friend who hates vtubers, and it took me less than two hours to get everything set up on the tech side, slap together an alright looking model with vroid, and fiddle around with the tracking until I got it to work well enough. And I'm using the second cheapest, shittiest, android phone out there, and a not-so-great computer that's still on a 2016 GTX1060, and the tracking seems to work just fucking fine, except the eyes, but that's because of my glasses more than anything.

Now that I've written all this out, I'm very confused on why I'm trying to figure out why terminally online vtweeters are lazy and stupid.

They probably think that you have to commission a model, and since they're all jobless, a few hundred bucks is too expensive for them.

Edit: To be fair, maybe they have the foresight to know that they'll end up dropping it after a few weeks, because they're either too lazy or too uninteresting to build up a fanbase, so they don't want to waste the money.

Was this meant to be Gura's big announcement? Year long project in the making?
Surely not.

She did say people were gonna really love it or really hate it. That summarizes AMOGUS pretty well, imo.

More of them should. Its literally free money. Stream there once a week for watchalongs or w/e and they can get so much more money its not even funny.

Yeah, it is a great way for them to double-dip with some lower-effort content if they want. People would love Twitch emotes from the actual talents themselves that they could trigger the rest of Twitch with.

Holy shit, I have never seen someone suck so bad with the roller in Splatoon as Bae. Stop spaming the shoot button and just roll your enemies woman! Fighting at range with something closer to a shotgun is clearly not working for you.

That's the thing though, speaking from experience, when you're poor, you figure out ways to do shit on your own, and for free. Do people really, honestly go "Well, I can't afford X, time to completely give up and forget about it."?

Writing a tweet is way easier than to make content. Way easier to get gratification too, since there are a lot of whiny stupid lazy bitches like you around to like and retweet you having a tard episode

But at least she can talk to us directly now instead of through her sock @thhrang account.

Stop slandering my name like this.

I used to sub to Miko back when I had prime. Her baby emotes are hilarious. She also one time watched a movie on prime video that was not region locked to Japan, since Amazon video is hot garbage and region locks you out of movies that you can watch in your region just fine only because the one they watch in Japan is "their version"

 

[Mumberthrax]

Pippa is dispensing very good advice and encouragement (and chastisement), and the "its soo expensive and hard to succeed and its not fair" vtweeters -are- entitled and lazy by and large, AND even Pippa knows that there are forces which promote those who take the ticket and sell their souls (by some degree or another) and which punish those who are natural competitors especially if they have talent or something that threatens them.

This is reflected in what's happening right now with the farms. Vtubing is new/niche enough and Japanese enough that it isn't necessarily as dominated by those forces, but even still you get hints of it if you pay attention. People can still succeed if they work their asses off in the field of vtubing, and as general advice saying "the people at the top got their purely through hard work and quality" does not apply to our world in its current state.

Just because the game is rigged, even if it seems hopeless, you should still fight and do your best because it is the right thing to do, and because you just might find a way to adapt to and/or bypass the ticket-taker system.

Vesper revealed a childhood dream of his in the current Tempus Raft collab. He wanted (and still kind of wants) to be like a character in Mary Poppins and own a house by the sea with a cannon that he can fire out into the water.

Magni: "The reason we have bad posture isn't because of gaming. It's from talking to Altare."
Altare disconnects.
When Altare rejoins, chat tells Magni to call him "princess" to cheer him up.

Bae is really bad at video games, IRyS could be fucking up her matchmaking, too lol. The rat tries her best though, and her raging makes for good content and she knows it.

Well, doesn't mold in its own, anyway.

Yeah Prime video is shit, especially for anime. I end up pirating most things for watchalongs because some anime is impossible to find subbed versions for that you can legally stream. I also don't think VPNs work for Prime Video, too, so you can't even view other country's content.

 

[Warspite]

Well for Fauna she's only really interested in Twitch because Cult of the Lamb integration sounds fun to her. She's asking for Youtube integration, so it doesn't really sound like she's particularly interested in Twitch for money reasons. More or less just kinda boxed into it for chat integrations.

 

[EliteDoragon]

This should be fun

 

[Titanosaurus]

Pippa is giving really solid advice in addition to the enjoyment of her roasting some of these people. I gotta say though, although I've only watched Sleepy in Pippa's collabs, there is some special skill that comes through, it's different then just "gamer" stuff. I don't play Tarkov, but there's something there that's impressive, the skill and confidence at a game and I would like to see more of that in a Vtuber.

Pippa just scratched her leg enough to start bleeding. This girl is impossible to fix.

Why would you try to fix perfection?

Never! I shall know the truth. Helen Keller was a fraud! The Earth is Flat! Jet Fuel can't melt steel beams but the Jews sure can!

Just because the game is rigged, even if it seems hopeless, you should still fight and do your best because it is the right thing to do, and because you just might find a way to adapt to and/or bypass the ticket-taker system.

My view of it was always that even if it's rigged, the worst that happens if you try to break out is that you're back where you started, so what do you have to lose? At the very least you might have some fun along the way.

I gotta say though, although I've only watched Sleepy in Pippa's collabs, there is some special skill that comes through, it's different then just "gamer" stuff.

Sleepy definitely has talent from what I've seen on the Pippa collabs. The way she acts and reacts gives her great chemistry with others.

Wait, that's not normal?

Well, there are some vtubers in Youtube and Twitch that either cater/designed around or exclusively towards Tarkov (Whiskey, Rye, Sleepy Project) or some that plays it daily. I remembered trying to find some of them on twitch and turns out there are plenty of japanese female vtubers with cutesy animu waifu image just being cute.... while playing a game about being a PMC operator with weapons and equipments that would make Wagner operators green with envy.
