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

Jim addresses the Pippa collab question again:


Pippa responds after her chat spammed a bit about it, also mentions how the Rackets collab fell through because management thought it was "too extreme for the VTuber community":

So let me get this straight: Management allows an interview with a cringe ex-Blizzard commie who politispergs hardcore on main and calls everyone he doesn't like Nazis and the next Hitler, but yet the professional lawyer with an actual audience is too spicy. Yup, totally no double standard here...
(:_(
Edit:
Another scuff clip, she comments on the possibility of an Andrew Branca collab, pondering if management would be okay with it. "I feel like it should be fine, but then again I would think, like, interviewing a lawyer would be fine, but... we know how that played out." She goes on to talk about how she still finds it surreal that all of these people are actually interested in interacting with her, and also says that @Flamenco is probably the "biggest VTuber in the sektor" lol.

Pretty silly.
I think Fishman talked about how he didn't want to be the first sending Pippa or other girls out to interviews with people like Rackets, implying if Rackets interviewed another vtuber first he would most likely greenlight Pippa afterward.

Thing is though that the JP sphere already did shit in the early years, appearing as guests on all kinds of podcasts/tv programs.
Some of which make Rackets look like a leftist with how conservative the hosts are.

The thing that really gets me about the Rackets collab is the fact that management OK'd it after he promised he'd behave, then ghosted Nick, then OK'd it again when he asked them about it, then ghosted him again, and I don't remember if they told him it was cancelled, or if he had to ask them for a third fucking time to get told it was cancelled. And then instead of them just telling Pippa before the stream or whatever, Nick actually had to come into the chat to tell Pippa it was cancelled. I get that some communities are too radioactive even for Pippa, but holy shit if you're management, set some ground rules and decide what is allowed and what isn't, don't jerk your talents and the audience around like this. But I also find it really hard to believe that the funny alcoholic lawyer is more damaging to the brand than the H-game artist who talked so much shit about blizzard that they'd never even want to think about working with you, or the commie sperg who did it for pretty much every other gaming company of note.

Cringe political youtubers should be kept out of this sphere, whether they are commie game devs of internet lawyers or whatever. Management should have shot both down, but I wouldn't particularly be angry at them for shooting down Rackets.

I'm not really a Pippa fan so I don't have any skin in this game. If this was for a company I follow, I wouldn't be mad to see management wanting to avoid just getting attached to the perpetually angry section of youtube.

I think they let the blizzard one go through cause he is in the realm of gaming still, which is in par with vtuber content. Rekita on the other hand really doesn't have anything that meshes well with common vtuber watchers to take a look at, except us who look into lowcows and internet drama. I'm sure management sweat a little during second half of the blizzard interview.

Yeah, ex-Blizzard guy talks about games is something that most general vtuber fans may have an interest in. They just should have done more research on the guy himself.

The Rackets stuff is the kind of stuff that really only 4chan and KF fans would be into. Which is obviously a large portion of Pippa's audience by this point, but I don't think management wants to be totally open about that.

Why is Keeki intentionally tempting schizos to find her at Dokomi?
Click to expand...
Because she's mentally ill. No idea if she grew up fatherless, but to her it seems attention is worth it, even when she has had stalkers attempt to rape her, she STILL feels the need to tell everyone where she is and where she will be. Gura should talk to her and convince her to go with the Suisei approach (It would be amazing is she ever graduates without anyone knowing who she is/was).

The most Austrian of all Rammstein songs.

I disliked her song. I think the lyrics/flow was just off, like it wasn't something being sung.

I can understand the wisdom in keeping politically charged people like Metokur and Rackets away from vtubers, but on the other hand I ultimately just want entertaining streams, which interviews with them probably would be (though they could also just be boring disasters).

I think one side is violently woke, and is more likely to harass the talents for even talking to someone remotely conservative/libertarian. Not to mention the Ralphamale attention from talking to Nick or Jim. I don't mind so much no collab with Rekieta (I think he is overhyped, too rude and crass for my tastes, Rittenhouse coverage was interesting, unsubbed when I found his night streams unenjoyable), but it would be nice to get to interact with Metokur directly in a stream.

I don't think possible collabs have been told no-go for anything malicious. I think the company recognizes Pippa's interests and her audiences, but for overall company wellbeing, it's best to curb overt relations and avoid any blowback that could occur.

"So I want to do all of this fancy NFT shit where you actually own the games you buy and they aren't attached to an account, they're on your hardware"
"What if your console's firmware fucks up"
Good five seconds of silence followed by "Well, then your shit's fucked"

MY MAN, HOW DOES YOUR ENTIRE FIVE MINUTE SPIEL ABOUT NFTS GET FELTED BY PIPPA ASKING A SINGLE QUESTION?

Super late I know but the way he described this was retarded, or rather what he seemingly wants to do is. It's funny because Brian Fargo, you know the guy he worked for at InXile was building something that sounded way more appealing. If I remember right it was a system where you could enable the sale of "used" digital games but the blockchain part was only to certify the sale. So you'd basically attach a "lock" to the game you want to sell, sell it, then once the sale is certified it would unlock. None of the actual content or ability to play it locked behind some shit that could go down or get hacked. Don't know what happened to it or if he's still working on it or not though.
