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

Not bad but kind of odd. Still not sure why this happened. Of all the indie devs who might want to give interviews and raise awareness of their projects, why this guy? Was there some payola or something? I and many others were guessing it'd be Mark Kern, a former Blizzard dev who is both already more well-known and whose game isn't pornographic; I'm sure he would have been just as interesting of an interview. But why this guy?

Porn aside I like the game's look. Definitely seems to have a couple layers of polish above and beyond Pixel Indie Game #44,329. Wonder how it will play.

If they could find someone else willing to do an interview with this rabbit, I'd definitely consider tuning in. They definitely need to figure out the technical issue and take that lag out behind the barn, though.
Vee just knew this guy personally, and arranged it, and between Pippa's Blizzard and MMO autism she just took it. I do really hope she gets Kern on because he's a fun guy, and not like it's hard to get him on your show in the first place. I remember him being on a bunch of shit when the 8chan THQ AMA happened, and the wider world thought he was the mysterious Mark behind /v/.

The guy was a Vee watcher and Vee got them connected.

I think Roman Kenney is well off enough to not need to shill anything, probably thought it would be fun to shoot the shit with an anime rabbit for a while. He seems like a good guy that likes to humor the fans and share some awesome concept art for cancelled/rejected games.

There was a lot of info I've never heard anywhere else about Blizzard. It would be funny to see her oshi Asmongold react to what was said in the interview.
 
Very good Pippa stream, Pippenis slip included.
Hopefully she does more of these because they're really interesting.
What a huge turn around from yesterday and earlier in the week! Her Colab with Lisa was really cute and entertaining and her interview was very professional! I was so surprised she kept going so long too! I admit I've only played Strarcraft and didn't care much about Blizzard stuff, but it was a great stream and kept me listening anyways. Cakes the Iguana matters!
I hope Pippa gets some good rest and relaxation now!

Since when does Vee have the ability to book things on a corpo's stream? I don't even hate the guy like some of you do and I find that weird. Surely there's more to it than that?
I think Roman Kenney is well off enough
Ah, so that's this guy's real name. Don't think it was ever actually mentioned on the stream. Thanks.

It was a ride going from thinking "Oh, Pippa got some former artist at Blizzard (one of thousands)" to "Holy shit this is the guy who invented Draenei in Warcraft, Zergs in Starcraft, art lead for Overwatch and had a huge part in shaping the iconic Blizzard aesthetic" as he revealed more details about early Blizzard.

Why am I not surprised the person who invented Female Draenei is a huge coomer.
 
I'm noticing more and more as of late that people are losing perspective when it comes to our little hobby: This ain't Hollywood.
Gura getting a 1 second cameo in a Taco Bell commercial and Mori signing a deal with UMG is cute.
Those are a couple examples from one of the Big Two Companies™.
Phase Connect as a business model got drawn up on a bar napkin by a drunk chink leaf who knows nothing of the entertainment industry.
The Rekieta collaboration has dragged on for months, which is being overseen by Pippa's actual management.
The Blizzard interview was hashed out by the talent, Pippa, knowing a guy, Vee, who knew a guy, Roman Kenney, for shits and giggles.
Pippa's stream was a Bob Ross happy accident where an opportunity presented itself and things just fell into place.
People need to dial back expectations and enjoy what we got.
 
Found this 2-months-old reaction video recently.
I like it a lot. Reaction & analysis by someone who know what she talks about.
I only watched this because of this thread's recommendations and I know very little about analysing music. It's been said, but I really like how she picks up on their personalities despite not knowing anything about Hololive, e.g. describing Suisei's voice as deadly multiple times, Matsuri as "a smooth criminal", Gura and Calli as two bros who rolled into the studio after a few beers.



Koyori's English collab this week was a strange exercise where the aim was to see if Bae understood her English. Maybe she's not fully confident that the EOPs in her chat understood her in past weeks lol. Bae dissected her word choices and grammar even more than Reine does in her class streams. A lot of it was in Japanese so I had it on as background noise but it seemed pretty productive for both of them.



Nene will have an off collab karaoke with AZKi on her channel, 7PM JST.

Most likely this is going to be only an hour before they redirect the watchers to the Roki premiere on AZKi's channel.

Considering this is an off-collab, here is what you might expect from Nene-oji.
Good to see AZKi together with the other Holomems. And of course Nene is Nene.

Been away for few days, but for once It don't look like I've missed too much... How bizarre. Need some more funnies in here, the doomposting is taking over with great vengeance.

This makes me laugh more than it really should. It fits far far too well now...
