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

Delta's first public gaming stream begins in 15 minutes. RE7. She says it's her first time playing any RE game so this may become a series.

No I don't know how to thumbnail.

Missed it live due to the strange time shift, so only just finished Gura's tutorial session.

I'm honestly blown away. Was not expecting it to be that good. If you've been sleeping on the Chronicles of Darkness TTRPG streams, at least give this one a shot. Put it on like it is a podcast while you're gaming/exercising/working.

Gura really surprised me. From the character creation stream, I expected her to half-ass it and just go along because the others were wanting to do it. She didn't sound excited at all at the time. I don't watch much of her in general, basically just the occasional karaoke streams. Yet after Kiara's session, she has apparently been talking about her character and her excitement about the session in basically every stream she has been doing. The /tg/ threads occasionally linked timestamps of such incidents. From following those, I'm pretty sure that she ended up being the most interested of all of them. Which, I think, showed through in her session. She said she never has played a TTRPG before, but she had to have done some improv or maybe high school theater or something. Or else she is really just a natural. The adlib about her character's grandfather in particular was great. She had character moments where she wasn't just following along with the plot and actual stakes and tensions toward the end that none of the others managed to match.

Give it a try.

As for ranking the others now that I've seen them all, Kiara's is probably second best. She was animated, had drive, and had a fairly interesting tutorial session overall. I don't like her voice normally. I'm not sure if she toned it down a bit or if I dislike it less than I thought I did, but I didn't find it that bad. Her verbal tic was a bit grating, however.

Ina's was alright. I generally like her as a person, not so sure about her character. A little more 'mad' to the scientist might have done her good, but I also understand not wanting to play someone completely over the top. Her session was, unfortunately, a bit dull for the most of it. There were interesting things going on around her, like the frat boys and witches, but she avoided interacting with them as much as possible. The ending was where it really shined.

Ame was my least favorite. It wasn't horrible by any means, but there were basically two factors that contributed to me ranking it lowest. The first and foremost was her speech. Kiara's verbal tic was mildly annoying, but not much worse than that. Ame's caveman grunts really dragged everything down. In a game like Chronicles of Darkness, speech is basically your primary method of interaction, so having such a severe impediment is... well, a massive impediment. The second, as some people have mentioned, is that she really just followed along with Calli's plot too much, which might have been a consequence of never dropping her character to say anything or discuss things with Calli. Apparently Calli gave her some tips, which she mentioned in a recent Valorant stream, so hoping she brings a little more to the table in the group sessions.

Group sessions that I am very much looking forward to. Can't wait.

In her defense for the original explanation and creation stream they had, Gura finished doing her first endurance stream of 10 or so hours not long before that. I mostly just thought she was tired and a bit out of it trying to even comprehend what she was hearing moreso than disinterested. She asked several questions during some explanations, character creation, and so on. Probably not much stuck at the time since her sleeping habits WITHOUT marathon streams are fairly chaotic sounding and caffeine laced as it is.

I haven't finished the tutorial streams yet, and have like half an hour of Ina's left and then Ame's so I can't ramble much beyond that.
Kiara seemed pretty par for a beginner but fairly into it, and Ina thus far from my gathering isn't exactly bad but it's kind of like hearing someone insert themselves into the story and talk about it, as opposed to being involved with interactively creating it. Almost like being the sidekick in your own dream I guess. Apparently I'm getting to the parts that change that though so I'll see.

Gura did seem to have an honest fun time with it and damn if it wasn't goofy enough to give me a good mood. The ending definitely had me wondering how she would go about things too and actually got my full attention for it. Based on what I've caught about the other sessions around here, it's actually funny how she also seems to be the only one who didn't waltz out of her tutorial somewhere near half dead or curse branded by some ancient deity. Considering her ending situation I'm actually shocked about it really.

Hopefully when all 5 get grouped up there will be more prodding done and suggestions tossed out to get everyone in some sort of active role and flow. A couple of smartass comments and some friendly teasing will probably get some good moments.

Going back to numberfagging Gura (because I was sleeping), the numbers don't really mean Gura has surpassed Kizuna overall but they do speak to popularity. Gura has risen in popularity incredibly fast to match Kizuna AI who we've known about for years. There's something to be said about Gura reaching that number that fast just as there's something to be said about Kizuna maintaining it all these years.

I did notice at summer festival it seemed like a lot of JP girls were meeting her for the first time and were surprised she was there. She carries a bit of mystique in Hololive from the looks of it.

It's just kayfabe stuff.

These people don't stop existing when they turn off their stream. A large chunk of them knew each other WAY before Hololive even existed. There is are videos of Mio, Okayu, Towa, Watame, Kanata, Ars Almal all doing karaoke together in 2017 because they all knew each other from NND. Roberu and Polka hung out and played Among Us on their NND accounts NYE 2020. They're more than free to continue talking on a personal basis outside of work, and to anyone but socially-paralysed yuri-vtuber-shipping retards, that's the most important thing.

'I'll be back in 500 years', 'Okay I'll stay alive until then' is clearly a joke. Polka and Coco are going to talk and hang out IRL because they're functioning adults who remained friends despite no longer working at the same company. This shouldn't be a difficult idea to parse.

Even if we assume Coco makes her own V-Tuber group, that means she's moved on from Hololive. The argument was never that she's done with the V-Tuber industry, but that she will one day triumphantly return to Hololive when she's finished doing whatever she's leaving for. THAT is Copium.

I saw that video and I recognized Mio and Okayu there, but fuck me I didn't know Kanata and Ars Almal are also in there. Granted there are many people in that video, and I'm terrible with voice recognition.

Well, that's pretty much the reason why both JP and ID girls are making a crowd around her. She's the face of HoloEN now, one of Hololive's current biggest star. For a lot of people there, this is their first time talking to the shark. They're bound to be curious with her, and curious they did as evident from Miko and Suisei's antics

Which is funny as she's just like Sora, being humble and all about her success. It also helps that she was one of the few that had their roommates known early on!

So apparently, Yagoo has the tendency to say stuff he is not supposed to, according to Coco via the management. Pretty based if you asked me, if not for management cockblocking him.

Isn't him the CEO? Couldn't he simply remind them of who's boss from time to time? I'm asking because their management clearly sucks sometimes given what has been said around here.

You know they say all vtubers are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Watoto and you can see that statement is NOT TRUE! See, normally if you go one-on-one with another vtuber you got a fifty/fifty chance of winning. But I'm a genetic freak, and I'm not normal! So you got a 25 percent at best at beat me! And then you add Yuul Balwright to the mix? You-the chances of winning drasticy go down. See, the 3-Way at Sacrifice, you got a 33 and a third chance of winning. But I! I got a 66 and two thirds chance of winning, cuz Yuul KNOOOWS she can't beat me, and she's not even gonna try. So, Watoto, you take your thirty three and a third chance minus my twenty five percent chance (if we was to go one on one) and you got an eight and a third chance of winning at Sacrifice. But then you take my 75 perchance-chance of winnin' (if we was to go one on one), and then add 66 and two thirds…percents, I got a 141 2/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice! Señor Watoto? The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Sacrifice!" - Scout's final promo before starting the WoD campaign.
