Not at all.

I am saying that anything that may or may not have transpired between VSHOJO and Hololive in light of her comments have already happened behind the scenes, and the outcome is as we see it. VSHOJO as a brand are still permitted to engage and collaborate with Hololive as they have done 3 times. Anyone who could have fired Vei is already completely aware of her comments and has not fired her.

If the result of that debacle was that Vei specifically could not collab with them, then that's her personal responsibility. If any 'bridges' were burned it was her own. She has had no tangible effect on how the companies interact, so it isn't appropriate to consider her viably on the chopping block to be fired over it.

Melody was already blocked from collabing just because she's a camgirl so it wouldn't surprise me at all if they simply block Vei as well.

Not good that they currently have two talents that are blocked. Zen would likely either be blocked or not considered depending on how much they know about his reputation (that he's a guy) or if they look at the big collab he fucked up. That collab looked bad on Vshojo management perhaps more than it did on Zen. It tells JP agencies Vshojo doesn't make sure shit is safe for copyright.

It there's not an outright refusal to collab, JP agencies will be more careful and likely ask a lot of questions before giving the green light in the future.

If the game is running some kind of DRM on it like Denuvo or something, it's going to tank your overall PC performance while playing it.

Denuvo Really Does Cripple PC Gaming Performance - ExtremeTech

For years, there have been persistent rumors that solutions like Denuvo have a negative impact on overall PC game performance. Denuvo has strongly pushed back on these claims, as have game publishers, for obvious reasons. The vast majority of PC gamers are willing to tolerate DRM — to a point...

I can understand the desire to simplify gaming to a console, it just makes life easier. But building a PC is super freaking easy to do. I forced myself to learn it after getting jerked around by Dell prebuilts in the early 2000's. And back then, i had to teach myself with a freaking magazine explaining the process. Nowadays, between YouTube, websites like PCPartPicker to make sure everything works correctly, and the 'availability' of computer parts online (normally), building a PC is easier than it's ever been.

For anyone interested in even a basic build, a website called "Logical Increments" has suggestions for part buys over a gigantic range of budgets, so you can build a good rig no matter what your cash levels are.

I'm glad someone else recommends "Logical Increments" shit is actually so good of a website. I actually use it in my job, where people ask me "What can I get with X amount?" Makes shit so so much easier.

Honestly Connor & Mousey is right up there in pure joyfulness to watch. They constantly shit on each other like 2 great friends, but they are there to help each other out when they need it the most. You can clearly see it makes Mouses day when she gets to play with Connor, as much as she denies it. I always wish Mouse the very best due to her circumstances, having any sort of disability where you cant even like meet your friends in person is fucking awful and I wish it upon no one now.

Valid.

I think pursuing the idea that Zen has been told that they cannot collab with any Holo due to some aspect of their character is far more sensible. I don't necessarily think it's the case that it's because Zen's roommate is male, as the likes of Itou Life have been in streams with Holos before.

I think having 2-3 members blocked specifically from only collabing with Hololive is only 'not good' if the members or brand were dependent on using the likes of Hololive for promotion purposes. All three of them do just fine as they are, and as much as I'm sure it'd suck for them, they'll all manage.

But in the same breath, you kind of helped me make my point: VShojo are not firing people because Hololive doesn't like them because this has been the case for Mel for over a year now, and Hololive not liking certain members isn't dissuading them from letting their members collab with others in VShojo.

That said, since its a bit related, I'm still betting on the gold mine that is a corpo EN male VTubers. NijiEN copying Holo by going with all female is a huge disappointment, especially when their other branches' brands are known for being the opposite of Holo. The market is going to died down and stabilized soon, and I know that getting a good male talents are going to be very challenging, but I really want to see a good EN Male VTubers rising as a new star. I don't know, perhaps VShoujo is going after that as well, as someone put it before

I wanna see this too. I really thought that Niji would go for it and that it would put some extra pressure in COVER, but nope. I still believe it will happen, but I think it's going to be later than sooner. I just want to see HoloStarsJP and the hypothetical HoloStarsEN try to collab with each other (and compare with the HoloLive side of things). If they can hire some entertaining proffesionals (as in they won't do fuck ups), then we are set.

There is risk especially with HolostarsEN that a lot of the people would only be join so they can get closer to the girls. For a lot people in here west Hololive is just the girls and don't know shit about Holostars other than that they exist.

COVER seems to have a good filtering process, so I would trust them with that.

Knowing cover they would drown them in enough red tape to prevent that, also i think they got savvy after i think 1 Holostar tried to pull that shit but far as i know that was a rrat

Was a new girl announced while I was grocery shopping or is this Kyutto thing speculation?

The Vshojo auditions aren't over yet as there be over by the end of the month on Sept 30th. From looking into Kyuotto's Twitter, she said she'll be trying to audition for Vshojo and is has been insisting that she will be keeping her current model and for her to "expand my wings and grow myself as a streamer (whether I get in or not)".

At first, I was a bit confused about what Shizu's tweet was about, But now I realize that because she's auditioning for Vshojo, some people are concerned about her joining because of Nyanners and the negative impact she'll get if she gets in? I'm still confused and unsure about this whole thing. But honestly, if she wants to join Vshojo that's fine, if she doesn't get in that's fine, or if she gets in that's fine too. I don't watch Kyuotto or watch Vshojo at all, but good luck to her I guess?

I ended up downloading and playing Hades after watching Tenma play it to help me sleep because for some reason old asian cashier worker at local asian supermarket voice makes me sleepy. Guess that's what happens when you're raised on fried tilapia from the local flip store. Game is hard as fuck, I can beat pretty much any boss in Isaac easily without a totally broken build but the dual boss battle in Hades is hardcore bullshit. Tenma makes it look easy, she really is a macho man.
