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

[Eddie IX]

Sorry, from VTuberCringe again.

What do you all think about this?

This has been torn apart already, but just another quick thing - calling $2k "really expensive" is hilarious. That can be expensive for an individual, but it's couch-cushion change for a company, and it'll be made back in minutes once the monetization opens.
I don't know about their other projects, but a VTuber project will pay for itself and any extra revenue is just gravy, as long as she's even moderately successful. Whatever their contract is with the streamer/VA, it's gonna be zero risk to the company.

Yesterday, the #1 APEX player in the world 'rage quit' his stream after being killed by a Diamond 4 player.

His chat was more angry than he was, suggesting that the Diamond 4 player in question was being boosted or cheating in some way. No one seemed to recognise the name which made it even funnier.

That's amazing. Was she not streaming at the time? Wonder what her reaction was like.

I think people here missed the news, but there's an update about HoloAlt, and its a big one. Massive, even
So apparently HoloAlt's main project now is a Metaverse named HoloEarth, just as Yagoo wanted in a certain Q&A. And on that front, they're going to make:
-An Open-World Sandbox game. Yes you read it right, a Hololive GAME
-"Communication Lobby", most likely something like a VRChat
-Avatar Creation System (exactly what it says)
They're also going to release other stuffs, like the Twitter Manga soon, and also disc release of HoloAlt's song. Oh, and there's also going to be a new PV in 2022. As for the game, they say the talents are going to play the prototype in November

So my prediction is correct, they really are going to make Hololive/Holostars more than just streaming, but also a multimedia group. So that's why they're insisting on keeping the lore going, especially with HoloCouncil. So that's why they seem to be very busy and delaying stuffs like costume and so. What surprised me is the game announcement. I know Yagoo wants to make a Metaverse, its the hottest stuff right now, but this soon? What a madlad...

Of all the game types they could have gone for, open world sandbox might be among the hardest to get right, especially for a "first" game (ping-pong doesn't really count). I hope they've got some sort of partnership, or at worst a consultancy from a company that's experienced in games. If they do it all in-house without bringing in expertise, it's probably gonna be shit.

By all accounts, having nearly 2K people watching Pomu take a shower on stream yesterday is a sign they're carving their way into the industry.

Wasn't it more like 4.5K? At peak, anyway.

 

[Scuttle]

Holy shit you might be right. I guess my stream didn't update from when I started watching.

 

[EenGevolg]

It isn't fair to look at NijiEN as they are right now and ask why they aren't pulling the same numbers as a group with a V-Tuber monopoly of Twitch and HoloEN. VSHOJO is comprised of a group of Indies who were already successful and helmed by the likes of Nyanners who has been at the grind for a decade. The story of HoloEN's success goes without saying. NijiEN have only been in operation for 5 months with very little foothold of the EOP market to begin with. None of these groups are at the same stage of existence and so a 1:1 comparison is bound to be skewed.

By all accounts, having nearly 2K people watching Pomu take a shower on stream yesterday is a sign they're carving their way into the industry.

They definitely are, but they probably wouldn't be hurt from trying to speed up their growth either. If that thing about them not planning a wave 5 in the near future is true, that seems like it could give them some space for trying things out. Things like the shorts or NijiScenario don't really seem like they've been working out in terms of attracting new viewers, and it isn't really as easy as throwing money at Holo for a collab (considering HoloJP and NijiJP already collab with each other) either; the algorithm has cooled off on even their growth by now, and even if they did go for it, many people just aren't willing to follow more than one company, which is pretty understandable.

 

[Beeg Snake]

Oh. So that's why her Russian Superchat celebration got nuked

Seen this in work and finally watched it and lmao how the fuck do you not know the basics of vtubing. Like you can possibly get away with it because everyone and their granny knows KSon is Coco but doing it in another language is full on pants on head retarded mode and can be perceived as getting around people modding her chat for her so that people don't know what is being talked about even though it was quite clear with the words coco and actress in that video. Probably nothing is gonna come out of this publicly but behind the scenes they are definitely gonna be chewing her out for it.

>fox is gonna play Noita
Oh boy I can practically taste the salt and rage quit

I have died 500 times in this game and only got through it all twice. I am too retarded with the giga nuke.

cmon guys i thought farms supposed to be niji hugbox with all the nijifag trying to shill that nijiEN sjw who not even like what a month?? cmon gotta hugbox that shit,thats not allowed,kiara doompost is the only way to go.lets go back to kiara doompost.

"surprising this happen to NijiEN" what do u expect from a "debut as many ppl as u can in a short time"?? ofc this shit will happen lmao.oh yeah sorry again,farms is niji hugbox so yeah there u go all the dumb/autist coming from nijifag that get butthurt lol

Someone creates an asset and the girls then shop it into a photo and upload it to Twitter. How long until someone creates lewd assets. I vote Haachama or Matsuri to be the first ones to like a fan-created image.

About negative 2 months. https://twitter.com/FinanaRyugu/status/1429837046365970437

-An Open-World Sandbox game. Yes you read it right, a Hololive GAME

The game promotes the girls and the girls promote the game. And the type of game sounds like Minecraft or Ark. Makes sense. If they can put together a competent team for this and not fuck with it, this could work out really well for them. That's a big if, though.

Just looked into this myself. Honestly if they could pull this off, it would be pretty big. Don't get me wrong this isn't going to be easy though, but with the small experience they had with VR games and the other VR stuff they have done and with the possible budget they have, I can see it being a success.

Biggest concern is Management. No good having all these amazing talented designers and what not, if they got shit management guiding them. It really can be the make or break of a big project. Lets just hope A-chan is somewhat in on it, as she is next level.

 

[Hmmpf!]

What would Botan be like if she didn't made it to Hololive. /sneed

 

[paule]

Are you guys prepared for an upcoming zombie apocalypse? Lamy did her homeworks and even scouted potential home bases beforehand. Did not see that coming

Also she is having an EN server date with Ina today

Sora suffering so much and yet there's nothing we can do. Feels bad man.

 

[Potatohead]

Maybe I just assumed, but the papa/rigger isn't on Gura's twitter bio anymore though, and she hasn't been using that much of her new costume (around once or twice within consecutive 10 streams).

If I’m remembering right, he/she got removed shortly after Gura’s costume reveal.

I sincerely, SINCERELY hope that whoever is in charge of HoloAlt has accounted for their current popularity and invests heavily in some robust servers and infrastructure, because this shit is going to be on fire when it goes live. And they even have a prototype ready for the Holos to beta-test in November?

This is either going to go supremely well, or supremely poorly.

 

[Wingnut]

This is the only Multimedia thread i visit, so I don´t now if its just a thing here, but the thread moves already fast enough, do we really need posts without commentary, just gifs/pictures? Feels like people are just farming ratings like reddit

It might be worth asking Null if we can get a thread specific Chat similar to what the DSP forum got. I'm not sure if he could be granular enough to make it a Vtuber weeb thread only chat, or if it would have to be a Multimedia subforum chat, which we would almost assuredly dominate in usage of. It would definitely help keep the spam reaction posting down when things like costume reveals or big collabs/events are happening.

 

[Beeg Booba Fishing]

Chicken's playing Sims 4, creating characters for Council and IRyS. I know Sana's skin color is more likely to be a tan than actual dark-skin, but the game's options are not helping Kiara and now it looks like she's whitewashing her.

 

[mandatorylurk]

This is Selen reacting to killing #1 guy, but nothing from her streams

Rosemi did a morning stream and chat seemed to convince her she had diabetes because she drinks too much tea and gullible flower believed it, blessed innocence.

 

[Troon Carey]

Yes, and it's a very big gay. Like I get they don't want to have their face out there but in particular the Scaley guy from the Kero leaks used a big gay dragon as his virtual avatar and it mad me very mad at my internet.

just like real gopnik, pippa has sub 100iq

After Pippa is done with F.E.A.R., bandit rabbit can start glorious game of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadow of Chernobyl. Die to many anomalies, complain about Duty, rant about Monolith (before joining them).

Good job Pippa

I'm not sure is this test viable, I scored 48/50 and I am perfectly normal human being with healthy hobbies and interests.

She sketched it herself and left some details to her mama's judgement

If this is her own handwriting and not the artist's then I assume she went with her plan of learning how to write kanji. I remember her collab with Roberu where she mentioned she wanted to practice handwriting, a skill that is probably somewhat useless in modern Japan, besides school.

Hahahaha get fucked scrub. You lost to an anime girl. (He handled it pretty well. It's an obvious smurf account even if Selen was forced into doing that. I don't blame him for being a little annoyed by that.)

Pippa reacts to learning about Null/Jersh's reaction to her.
View attachment 2642521

Pippa knows Josh too well.

Hey, fuck you. Iofi is nice. And she's sister with Sora and Pochi's friend. Without her, PekoMoon might never be a thing. She ain't Anya. That side braid is cute. Wonder if she ask for this vibe since the second outfit usually when they can start giving your personal input. It's vaguely military uniform?

Without iofi we wouldn't get Pochi as Reine's mother. That is more than enough of a contribution.

ID has some really cute chuubas, but the throat-fucking language is a HUGE filter for me.

I just assume they're chewing someone in chat out and it makes it more enjoyable.
