FOR FUCK SAKE

Expanding on this
If the sillouthe on the trailer is something to go by, the new skin has to be for gods who dual-wield weapons, if so the pool is reduced to Izanami, Osiris, Ullr, Kali or Pele.
Probably the first two since Osiris is the god of the after-life and Izanami is the Matron of the Dead.

we will NOT be having an ASMR Volus lore explanation.
View attachment 24173
Good, we don't need someone like Todd's Mistake coming in and dropping every detail of elder scrolls lore on us because Rana missed a key detail that is only explained in a book found in Oblivion.
As for Mass Effect, the guy who talks in the first one already knocks me out so I don't need to listen to ASMR for that.

Kronii Stream in 30.

The news seems to be that Niji gives talents 2% of merch sales. I assume that means 2% of the total price, not the profit, so kind of a meaningless number if we don't know the markup over manufacturing costs that Niji puts on the merch. (For example, if they do a 5% markup over manufacturing costs, that's 40% of the profit.)

I adore rrats, but just to avoid confusion on this one. Assets is not referring to the model itself or rigging, those ARE paid for by Niji(and hopefully every other corpo).
Ah, yeah, i was thinking of all surrounding assets like overlays and loading screens, intros and outros, i thought the implication Sayu gave is that you have to pay for those, but i could be wrong

Given half the talents do them themselves or ask friends, or use free music from dova syndrome, I sincerely doubt any companies have any budget assigned to it (aside from idolCorp but they are weirdos)

That explains though why the merch is always so samey and basic. It's probably shit they mass churn out in some Chinese factory as cheaply as possible at mass, and mark up the price like fucking crazy. Plus, it would line up with what Pomu was saying regarding the best ways to support Niji streamers.

Either way, this seems an absolutely pathetic number considering how much 'special event' merch they always seem to be shilling.

The asylum's favorite donator of 50k for trans rights is debuting a new model on the 11th apparently, also a collab with HiRez's MOBA SMITE

The model better be worth 50 k.

Wonder when she will open her mouth about why she left.

Is there any actual evidences about the 2% sales? I didn't watch False stream, but that number is very specific, I assumed he must have some evidences. Otherwise, this is really absurd, and their merch quality is meh

He said he got told by one person in the know, and reached out to multiple other sources. And he said he received a range, but the range averaged out to 2%. Which means it's actually 1-3%. He obviously can't directly say who told him, otherwise his sources would dry up after they got their shit kicked in by AnyColor.
Thanks for the info. Now I am imagine my wife paid for 75 USD to buy and support her Oshi Birthday merchandise, but her Oshi only get less than 2 USD from it. She got scammed badly :whatastory:
