General Discussion for Virtual Youtubers / Vtubers / Chuubas - it's okay to be a simp for 2D, just don't thirstpost.

Sassy Shark about to pull some real shit if she didn't stop:
iirc she stopped quickly because all chat accepted her offer, and knowing them they would go and get shit done, also lets be real she has been playing minecraft for a year and doing barely anything worthwhile to the point there is a joke that her MC streams are actually high speed zatsudans where she talks and burn the sugar on her system
So, word on the street is Calli and Irys are going to onsen together. Given that Irys is allegedly bi, Calli might get laid.
If she fucked Nene and manage to fuck Calli that means Hope beated the menhera :smug:
 
That's odd, she didn't list this language during her debut (or maybe I'm missing something). Maybe she didn't want to touch the smelly yellow subject, which is kinda understandable, but you can speak Cantonese and not be a fucking shitstain of humanity. And being a fluent speaker of four languages is something you have full right to be proud of.
She's not fluent in Korean iirc, she's learning it.

My Rrat: if Bae is fluent in Cantonese, she's possibly being stopped from using it by managers(or just herself)out of fear that the Chinese bastards will hard target her since she understands them. It could also be though that she doesn't know enough to speak comfortably on stream, or is kind of like Kronii where she moved from China when young and thus is out of practice or something.

I know I'm pretty late on this, but I literally just turned my computer on and got caught up on posts.

@Moth Enjoyer In case you haven't figured out how to put videos into your post, you need to click the three dots next to the Insert Link and Insert Image options, and then click Media which is the third option. Then just paste your link in there. I like to preview my post just in case before I post it, which you can find next to the Undo option in the top right corner.
 
You know, I have seen/read many predictions, rrat, or theory of what Cover is going to do (and personally made many), but Cover making their own BoTW/Genshin clone is the first for me
Even if Cover is going to develop their own games (which I seriously think they will do), its going to be a simple but profitable games first. Simple gacha perhaps, or minigames collection. Something along the idea of your usual Touhou doujinshi games years ago
really? that was flying around right at the start because no one had any clue what holo alt even was (still don't really). same way people were talking about an anime series etc., especially when you consider how popular the game is and how much it would fit hololive.
it didn't gain a lot of traction because there was no indication for it given cover doesn't have the manpower for a project that size, wasn't hiring that amount of new people and there was no news about getting a studio to do it involved. that's why it was meant as a joke, because nothing in that regard has changed as far as I've seen.
still, the type of graphics leave room for speculation one way or another.

if the sheep doesn't get that outfit in 3d I'm gonna sperg!
 
On the potential Hololive Genshin clone or whatever, Cover are currently hiring for multiple positions such as server engineer, ux designer and 3D art director specifically for online game development at the bottom of this list of job listings.
They definitely want to do some sort of game, hopefully it isn't just a Genshin clone or I'll be unlikely to play it.
 
Ina explains the periodicity of art output dissatisfaction vs skill:

Is there a chance that's just a very elaborate background and not a (semi)competent game? Or maybe there have purchased some template to experiment in with the models? A proper game seems to be a big and risky investment from a company inexperienced in the field of game development.
most likely they just used what they had at hand as a concept, yeah.

however, the boars on one screen are most definitely breath of the wild, while the other screen with miko is a bit too similar to the concept art they have in another job ad.

just compare

to
1646515108470915072_full.png

what I'm wondering is:
- why use zelda in a job ad?
- if the concept art isn't zelda too (never played it so no idea, but I doubt it), this means they didn't just grab a random background but specifically made one.
- if it is zelda I wonder what nintendo would say about it.
- if they made it, that isn't really the type of background you'd use for 3d shenaningans. which means: what is it for?

fuck, I noticed there are quite a few job offers, standard stuff but among them

pretty sure psyllium is a mistranslation, but given japan I'm not sure...

They definitely want to do some sort of game, hopefully it isn't just a Genshin type clone or I'll be pretty uninterested.
it could be worse. it could be hololive vrchat
 
Get ready for some premium-grade Japanese Corpo autism.

Yakumo Beni and Sumire Kaga of VSPO will be suspended from activity for 1 month and 2 weeks respectively, for the crime of playing Ranked Valorant with Crazy Raccoon (Pro players) members using sub-accounts. The accusations are for Smurfing and Boosting.

The reason Yakumo Beni's punishment is twice that of her peer is because she was also accused of 'Piloting' (having a pro player play on her behalf whilst she pretended to be in control on stream) during the recent Valorant tournament, however RIOT Games themselves stated that there was no suspicious activity coming from her account that may imply such. Still, the public always want them punished just because of the accusation, so she was thrown under the bus.

One of the members of Crazy Raccoon has taken a one-year pay cut as penance for this.

Statement from VSPO's official Twitter.

What a fucking Nothing Burger to be causing a stir over.

Its also a fucking riot game, at any time, be it lol or val, if your playing in a game under 50%MMR there is a good chance someone is either a new smurf account, or someone who tanked their MMR to stomp games for fun/video content.
 
iirc she stopped quickly because all chat accepted her offer, and knowing them they would go and get shit done, also lets be real she has been playing minecraft for a year and doing barely anything worthwhile to the point there is a joke that her MC streams are actually high speed zatsudans where she talks and burn the sugar on her system
You know it's bad when fucking Mori(I think I made this comparison before) of all people looks like she is better at Minecraft compared to gooruh who eventually came back for Minecraft due to various factors(more people in the server plus UMISEA, which is prolly why shork was invading the JP server before the collab was officially announced).

Though to be fair, gooruh actually made accomplishments before like making creeper and trident farm. Unfortunate part is that they are forgotten by virtually everyone in the server because EN are not demolitionist like the rabbit or "maid" and no one is interested in playing with magical fork, even Gura gets it for lore. Then she stopped playing in between because she doesn't want to use Minecraft as filler space in her schedule along with some other burnout excuses.

At least her old Atlantis project is starting up again with her Conduit Temple project.

Not sure if anyone would find it interesting or not, since there's not really any point outside of seeing what they're up to while not streaming, but there are 2 telegram rooms that keep track of the Hololive MC server logins and logouts.

Even outside of streams, considering Irys logged out after Calli and Gura logged in for a bit afterward as well.
