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

[Potatohead]

It feels like there's some kind of "Do shitty sponsored stream x and we'll let you do y" deals going on behind the scenes at EN. They're constantly getting signed up for the most garbage sponsorships. Someone earlier in the thread was saying crunchyroll's vtuber will have to promote shit like High Guardian Spice but holoEN signs up to every shitty crunchyroll sponsorship going so I wouldnt be surprised if they have to shill it

Counterpoint: Sponsor streams are almost certainly opt-in rather than mandated as a group. Everyone did at least one Bookwalker stream, true, but Gura has yet to shill Shadowverse. She and Calli were also the only ones to do the Scarlet Nexus sponsorship.

Nachoneko dropped that one girl that Pippa likes when she left Tsunderia I think it was.

She was dropped so hard she was wiped from Nacho’s bio, right? Nah, whatever happened between them, that shit’s on Kana, considering Nacho just had a collab with her two japanese-speaking daughters a few days ago.

Both the original game or Black Mesa would make for a great stream. Now I'm hoping that she plays one of them sometime in the future.

She was sperging about portable consoles earlier, maybe game boy streams are coming, not Vita because Sony hate fun and not DS/3DS because nintendo dont like corpos using mods

Edit: well apparently it was nothing serious she will take the day off

Have you not been here when she was found to be abusing Hololive metatags and rumours of her being backed by a Chinese company? She then released a "notice" about how she used to be part of a company but has since left. Pretty sure it's been proven that she was never a true indie since then

Oh no "abusing" tags. Every LetsPlayer would have PewDiePie or GameGrumps on their video tags. That's how the game works. Gives your video a higher chance to get discovered by people who are randomly searching for the bigger names.

Its part of the business. There is always a ton of shit you have to put up with because your end goal as a company (or even as a worker) is to get paid.

Huh kinda odd maybe they didn't get along? I was under the impression most vtubers with the same mama liked the whole "sisters" thing

Most vtubers like it because it is just an excuse to collab with other people.

why do redditors always have to be like this?

Because its current year and since websites ban any sort of "bullying", others can't call them out on their retarded opinions.

She basically said biological sex is real and trans women were denying cis women the rights they fought for (like affirmative action, scholarships, female only government services, or female only spaces) by using them.

I do love how any criticism of any trans person somehow gets blown out of proportion. Extra cherry on top is when they then say that any dissenting or differing opinion correlates to violence against that population.

I'm not sure how the fuck she did it, but Selen took a bland as shit game like Phasmophobia and turned it into 11 hours of absolute gold.

No matter who was playing with her at any given time, they all worked so well together so it ended up being a gauntlet of 10/10 collabs fastened to one another. Even the participating Ethyria girls slipped in as if they'd been part of the group for months.

The giggle queen just makes things fun.

I think it's more of people not really wanting to hear every stream about Connor or other TT members. It's like back in November when Mori could not stop mentioning Charlie but difference is that her members are same kinda people that watch those anitubers and there is no push back.

The difference is that Calli is known to tell her viewers to shut the fuck up and plays the part of a girl who doesn't give a shit about what others think whereas Ollie (even though she did it once) seems to play the part of the younger sister who gets excited over everything and doesn't really clap back whenever the tards in her fanbase get rilled up.

Anya has clapped back a few times against the tards. Moona has also done it a few times.

Remember when people were saying that Mumei was boring?

Anything changed? Haven't really kept up with her but both her and Fauna are extremely boring to me.

Remember when people were saying that Mumei was boring?

She still is IMO but she has good chemistry with others so it works out.

 

[Cdfhju]

as the world started getting back to normal

I'm not sure that's even going to happen...

For me, I just hate the unavoidable ads. Even with a blocker, Twitch's ads come through and ruin streams. YouTube wins by a long shot in that department.

Ads?oO Is it when using the phone that such horror happens?

 

[Sheep Shagger]

Reimu's Spla2n stream is starting now.

I originally thought I wouldn't like the ghost, her eyebags and hair made me kind of iffy about her design, but looking past that she's quickly become my favourite in the wave.

Edit: Oh god, charger with the pro controller. This heathen plays Splatoon 2 in handheld mode most of the time, this is her first time playing with the procon. She's jumping straight into ranked anyway lmao. She's my rank though, so that's cool.

On PC with ublock or whatever.

Ina promote that mobile game Kanata and Towa sing the theme song for, but as Nagu. Just found it funny.

It could be how she’s artist for it then they ask her to hook them up with Hololive for promotion seeing her impressive connection. At this rate, IRyS will sing in anime as IRyS instead of her roommate (whose only sang in anime once I believe) soon.

Yes, but I did not believe she was indie since the day she appeared because she appeared after amelia aka with a Nabi made avatar, her numbers and pull are very strange for a solo indie my personal rat is that she appeared with a shitty company at first, after she left that one, Pony canyon decide to join the bandwagon and soft adopt her

What I want to say is I believe she is Pony canyon vtuber, you don't get that much pull by being indie, it took millennia for cover to land a collab with a big music company

After Amelia blow up in popularity and Uto appeared out of nowhere as “indies”, I remember there was a tweet from Nabi herself that she would not take in any personal request for making Vtuber avatars. This already show that Nabi was set to work with corpo Vtuber only in order to ease from payment and potentially scam (artists are poor and need food too) this was before she’s doing Vtuber and get Simp money. I wonder if Nabi attitude change over the past year regarding indies Vtuber consider she also drew for Banpire’s roommate. On the other hand, it’s supply and demand rule so Nabi only need to partnership with big indies in order to build her “Nabiface” Vtuber since I doubt we will have a Saberface Vtuber from Takeuchi anytime soon consider he’s and Nasu were too boomer.

I don't see why they need a gen 6. It's getting crowded.

Why not? If they don’t then Niji will hit wave 20 eventually. For Holo, the subsequent Gen will have bigger and bigger roommate crowd as competition get heat up once audition announced. (IRyS won the 1:5000 odds to get her slot). If Azki contract expire without her transferring to Holo from INNK then I can see she will reincarnate as HoloJP Gen 6.

Ame’s Smol 3D parody had been working great for Myth and will eventually for Council and IRyS when Walfie and the support gang finish their models. Cover will announce the HoloEN 3D premier and chance that they will want to do together some section once the Rona gone. Ame and the gang end game will probably be able to use their official 3D to stream with their already set up home3D and eventually VR chat to replace MeinKraft. Imagine Holotalk with all those 3D (that’s production value right there) or Ina and Sana drawing with their model’s actually moving like Kagura Nana.

This cookie mobile game that Gura and Ame are going to play has "paid promotion" written all over it, IMO

 

[Two-bit]

Remember when people were saying that Mumei was boring?

Mumei's BOTW streams have been pretty entertaining. For a game I've already played through, it's interesting seeing how others play through it. Her voice is so nice to listen to as well.

On PC with ublock or whatever.

I've been having good luck with Video Ad-block for Twitch. It's a chrome extension I installed last week. Haven't seen an ad since.

I don't know why you phrased that as an opinion since gura and ame definitely wouldn't play this kind of game on stream oth e wise

Alternate Player for twitch.tv also hides ads. It's a browser extension

Dont lose hope i believe that fucker will do it just to put Kawasumi in another place

If Azki contract expire without her transferring to Holo from INNK then I can see she will reincarnate as HoloJP Gen 6.

She doesnt need to, at this point INNK is just there for the heck of it, she could be still on INNK and stream like Irys does and no one would care

You don't say?

No one on EN gives a crap about Gacha games, just look how cringe was the princess connect collabs with only Calli getting some mileage with her son and only Ina that sleep, drink and breath gacha could make it interesting

 

[LunaKage]

This was something I also mentioned a short while ago. I was looking at non-HL cover songs and realised I don't really have a good baseline for what numbers a "successful" cover should expect. Not that numbers are the "be all and end all" but you have to admit that putting out a cover and getting barely 4 digit views must be pretty demoralising.

Honestly it's all perspective. The metal cover I did for Mori got 25k views in one year. To many, that's pathetic, but for me, it's my most successful video I ever put out, and it means a lot to me. Before that, my most successful completely original video did 12k views and it's been up since like 2013.

I don't get demoralized when I look at dudes like FamilyJules, because that dude is talented as fuck, and deserves the attention he gets.

Retarded Lifehack:
The last few Pippa streams have been absolute buffering nightmares for me, even on the lowest resolution and after refreshing the page.
So my work around is to pop out chat as its own window for chat interaction and to just watch the stream in OBS, since I'm recording the stream anyway.
OBS defaults to Monitor Off for Audio Monitoring, so to turn on as to actually be able to listen to the stream:
Edit > Advanced Audio Properties > Audio Monitoring > Monitor and Output

For whatever black magic is at work, streams in OBS never seem to buffer unless it's a catastrophic one that everyone experiences.

Selen is playing punishment Phasmaphobia with Elira and Finana helping her along.

That was a fun stream. Funny when Selen raged at Elira and Petra

Wait, Nabi drew this? That's great then if that's true, I wonder if she's going to get someone to rig it.

As for Pippa's poor nutrition, if she has headaches focused more on the front of her dome piece, above the eyebrows that dehydration. Apparently she hates water, so carbonated water with electrolytes will help. I remember she said she on stream all she had was soda and coffee so could be dehydration + caffeine withdrawals. She needs to touch grass every now and then.

Elite Miko makes meeting a goat an emotional scene. That said, did not know Kiara found Yagoat. Coincidences are some of the funniest things.
