/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

T_T

2023 is the year I get a vtuber gf

What kind of streams could one do with a handcam?
Can m*les do them too?

>>40171150
yes
of course

T_T

>>40170076
or bf id be fine with either at this point

you are too attractive to not be a flesh tuber

>>40173181
face cam point redeem sounded like a good idea but I stream after work and after work I look like a zombie

>>40171150
I've done gunpla building streams in the past

>>40173181
That's a man

>>40171150
Something that actually takes skill. Like machining or some shit.

is there any news on the Holostar EN2 auditions, like have they already gone through applications? I'm still in the middle of doing mine

What streams other than games can you do...

>>40173884
Hot tub streams

>>40173791
Rolling stream now.
Pretty sure it won't be ENStars2, just a 5th homo.

I really miss you but you're a different person now

You think it's fine to include a clip in my audition video that includes other people laughing at me being a dumbass? Would they see that and be like "Oh sugoi this retard is funny ohhh naruhodo."?

>>40173884
Good:
>art/music/creative streams
>handicrafts/cooking handcam (bad for immersion though)
>book narration/book club discussion
>hobby discussions (media or real-world)
>advice streams
>karaoke
>group zatsudan
Bad:
>solo zatsudan
>react streams
>asmr
>"deep dive"/"lore" streams
>interviews

>>40176427
I forgot watchalongs. Those can be good.

>>40174032
>rolling stream
Rolling Auditions*

I keep thinking streams where I just stream while I record/edit a cover or make a video would make nice zatsudans but I'm too self conscious about my music process and I don't feel like anyone would want to watch a video they've watched get made

>>40179414
Hey, don't worry. It's fun to watch someone cook AND to eat the food afterward.

MAPLE SEX

>>40173884
Drawing streams
>>40182294
Maple sex is dead bro

>>40182294
there is no sex anymore, only sadness

>>40183653
Shocking

>>40176427
interviews go hard

>>40176427
>book narration/book club discussion good
>solo zatsudan bad
I feel like this is straight up false. When it comes to zatsudan it depends on the person, but book reading is kind of really boring because I'd rather just read the book myself or listen to an actual professional audio book.

>>40171150
I've been thinking about trying this, because I want to be a vtuber but I don't play games, I want to like drawing and sewing with a handcam.
But every stream I've seen that does this just seems weird. Like the irl hand instantly breaks the immersion even if they're wearing gloves.
Instantly the vtuber model becomes.. just a model and no longer a living character.
I don't think it works.

>>40184819
you can do a thing where maybe you take pictures of the drawing or item you're sewing from the beginning through the process until the end, maybe?

>>40184860
That would work for videos I think, but not streaming, unless I misunderstand what you mean

You mean like.. take a picture of the progress, move your hands out of the way, and then just have a static picture on the stream for an hour untill you update the photo? I don't think that sounds very entertaining

>model is rigged and ready
>twitch and youtube are set up
>access to games
>everything is prepared
but i'm still anxious as hell before going live for the first time, how do you just... stream without worrying? i wanted to get into streaming and vtubing to help deal with my own anxiety but god help me if i can't even put myself out there after getting this far. how did you guys deal with everything on your first time?

>>40184926
well, you'd probably be doing zatsudan while talking through the process of what you're doing. if you're not sure what i mean, look up what Rosemi did on her first time cooking food.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PS9GfNoesec

>>40184962
I don't know how popular you are, but you're probably going to have like 0 viewers so it doesn't matter, just have fun getting used to streaming while nobody is there to judge you

>>40184994
hmm I think it's a bit stiff with the photos, also looks like a lot of effort to have to upload so many photos constantly rather than just having a livecam.
But it definitely solves the model immersion problem. I don't feel that this vtuber feels less real because of the photos.

Maybe there's a way to do a livecam without revealing human body... that would definitely be the ideal

>>40185085
>it looks like a lot of effort
that's how it's gonna be if you wanna go through all these hoops to avoid showing your body on stream while showcasing stuff you're working on in real life in real time
>Maybe there's a way to do a livecam without revealing human body
yes, real time motion capture for a 3d model, which you'd probably have nowhere near the money for something like that. drawing is literally the easiest thing if you're doing digital illustration but sewing you'll have to make concessions for, either pictures or a handcam

>>40185229
>full 3d tracking of model, then perfectly overlaid over human body to conceal it
Has anyone done this? this sounds hilarious, like vtuber skinwalking

>>40185260
yes, nijisanji does this all the time actually. they do it during 3d concerts and 3d model showcases, but i think the most insane one was the concert in 2021(?) where they sang and interacted with real objects on a stage while a live band played in the background using their models in real time. probably a combination of mocap, green screen and whatever proprietary tech they have over there. i'd find a video but it's pretty hard to find clips of it

... I can't decide what game to play

>>40177164
>watchalong
It’s actually a neat idea to finish your anime backlog, commentate, react, and give your thoughts on each episode. The only downside is that you might have shit taste on anime

>>40184962
Do it, take the leap

anyone want to watch narutaru on stream with me but no subs at 5am

>>40185938
What have you liked playing in the past?

>Rebranded but feel bad for my old model
guys...

>>40187717
Alexa recommend me ten games exactly like morrowind, but different

>>40187765
Who rebranded recently, reverie?

Can I get a quick redpill on the sleeping streams?

>>40188296
fear of missing out

>>40188296
free ad revenue because your fans will keep your tab up muted

whats the ettiquite on going into a 1view stream and them having audio issues
should you tell them

>>40193904
I'm too afraid to go on 1 viewer streams. I feel like they're watching me and desperate for me to be entertained, but actually I was just passing through and don't have time to watch a stream today.
But if I leave, they might be upset that they did something that upset me

>>40193904
No
Leave and never return, just like everyone else

>>40193904
yeah. if it's someone bigger with an audience and it's mild you can tell them after but for 1views, interruptions are a non-issue so go ahead.

>>40173791
I'm interested in Holostars but i don't wanna join gen 2 based on the fact that Cover actually tried to hold auditions before gen 1 even debuted.
So out of principle and respect i'll just wait for gen 3 to have my chance.
Also, i haven't even begun streaming yet...

>>40173884
Chatting, singing, reactions, reviews.

>>40193904
>>40195794
I'm also afraid of going into 1-10 viewer streams, but at the same time I wonder if
>what if this streamer one day blows up
and I could be there right at the beginning and enjoy watching them grow and succeed.
But I am too afraid to go into such a small stream because all eyes are on me.
How do I go into small streams? I want to help them with my 1 extra view that will probably bump them up like 5 pages

>>40173884
Anything while in kayfabe really, it doesn’t get boring for the audience if you stay on character and own your kayfabe, unless you’re a “literally me” guy in a hoodie

>>40176427
>bad for immersion though
What if my hands look just like what my character's hands would look like?

>>40182294
So how much have the Canadians infiltrated the Vtubing industry?

>>40184962
As someone who still hasn't streamed for the first time yet the advice i gotta give to you is to just chill and know that whatever you think will go wrong will never happen.

>>40201454
I go into small streams all the time, not Vtuber streams but still, so i think i have the necessary experience to say, the less people there are the more likely you'll become more well known within the person's fanbase and even have a legacy of your own.
For better or for worse depends on your actions though.

>>40201898
but what if the streamer is not all that good and I want to leave? they will be sad. Especially if I hang around for more than a few seconds. What if I participate for a couple streams and then decide to leave? They will have gotten their hopes up that I've become a fan but I didn't.

>>40202495
I think you're worrying too much. If they lose a viewer then i'm sure they'll understand.

>>40173884
Maybe something like watch car crash videos with audience.

>>40202495
Just go in there and be like
>"I'm a drifter, I wander from place to place. I like you pal, you're funny, but I can't be pinned down. I won't follow you, not my style, you might not ever see me again, but don't worry, I think you're cool, keep doing what you're doing"

>>40202495
What >>40202863
said
Unless they're overly sensitive(which they shouldn't be because streaming is a tough game) they will understand, they will expect to not get many viewers, and for people to pop in and out. They should be mentally prepared for not attracting loyal fans with each and every viewer that walks through their door

are you still there?

>>40203168
I'm still here.

>>40203168
I don't feel like I've really been here for years, everything just feels like a dream passing by my eyes

>>40203326
I felt the same way ever since 2020.

It's always make me feels happy when my skeb finally delivered.

>>40201666
It’s all part of the preparations for Bill C-11, a large sweeping psyop to turn Leafistan into the North American media machine.

>>40203326
I know what you mean, before I noticed it I started approaching my thirties

>>40176427
this is bad advice. your "bad" streams have a lot more audience appeal than your shitty "good" ideas.

整理整頓

>>40185260
There’s a DIY vtuber who does something similar.
https://youtube.com/c/ShinonomeHatsuri

>>40212355
wow that's some incredible talent. There really is everything on the internet these days.

I thought the human figure would be visible underneath the model and you would have to block it out with a glow effect or something, but I didn't even think of using some sort of predater esque technique.
But wow it's kind of creepy actually, I can't help but feel like the air conditioner is being lifted on it's own like a ghost is doing it even with the 3d vtuber model right there.

Very interesting, janky, but interesting

>>40212355
This is really cool. Thanks

How many times have you rebranded/restarted?
Trying to figure out if I should work on building a full identity or just slap some stuff together, make the accounts, and go live. The latter seems like a better idea.

>>40213832
I'm on my fourth identity, but I don't I'm a good role model

>>40204290
Better than Hollywood desu.
Much less corruption. Although i do have a feeling the government is gonna force in propaganda any time soon.

When you vtube a character, do you feel that you have to actively perform and remember your character personality and lore. Or do you find that the model itself carries you through the acting?

I've heard similar things in the theatre world where they say rehearsing in regular clothes is difficult but once they have the full costume and makeup on, they just become the character naturally

>>40216179
Lore in vtubing is like story in a porn video. It's expected to be there, but it's not important.

Sitting at a desk or standing in your living room while streaming is a bit different from being on a stage in full costume with fellow actors around you and so it's easier to slip out of character or to forget your lore. This isn't necessarily a problem as long as you can be entertaining for your audience. The great thing about vtubing is that you have a lot of flexibility in how you present your character and in deciding how relevant the lore is to your performance.

>>40216179
I just speak with my head voice and everything becomes in character, even my drops to chest voice, because anything that doesn't fit the character is either gap moe or "What, just because I'm a [species] I can't have INTERESTS?"

>>40184962
>how do you just... stream without worrying?
You don't. You just do it anyways. I have such bad anxiety I can't even join discords or online groups or talk to people in games but I still managed to hit that go live button. It helped mentally repeating "it's fine, nobody is actually watching me".

>>40184962
Don't pull up a live viewcount, no matter what. Just hit "go live" and act like you've got an audience already, if any chatters show up you can interact with them.
No one knows you're faking it if you don't let it show.

How do you be entertaining without a chat?
I feel like every popular streamer is entertaining largely because of whatever chat interaction.
Something dumb said in chat, some donation message or tts or redeem.
The stream feels alive when there's the streamer-chat dynamic.
If the streamer says or does something entertaining, it's funny not just because of the action itself, but also largely because the chat notices it and comments about it.
Imagine the two scenarios

>streamer is playing game and accidentally drops controller thereby losing connection and dying in game
>chat erupts with laughter
>streamer is embarassed

>streamer is playing game and accidentally drops controller thereby losing connection and dying in game
>no viewers, nobody saw it happen
>streamer is embarassed

It just isn't as funny without people watching

>>40219895
wrong

>>40173884
When I see questions like this I am torn but ultimately it is pointless telling you. This is something you ought to have realized yourself and you won't be good at it if you didn't want to do it. People will watch what you want to do and what you make fun, the content is less important than the reasons for it and the effort that goes into it.

>>40219895
Yes and it is infinitely harder to lose a large audience than to get enough to notice you that there is never something not going on. Many big streamers give advice for stream growth that isn't leech off someone bigger that is often ignored: don't start streaming. You don't have to worry about 0 viewers when you never experienced less than 100 viewers.

>>40219895
also I didn't mean to word this in such a dumb way but another example is like

The streamer talks to the chat. If they play a game and they commentate it, they're talking to the chat
>"wow look at the size of that lad over there"
>"how do I climb up this ladder"
>"holy shit I got so much xp from that guy"

If there's no viewers.. talking to nobody like that just doesn't make any sense. It's like if you were doing stand up comedy irl, the jokes may by the same but without an audience, they're just not jokes anymore, they're just words. There has to be an audience otherwise it's pointless to speak.

I guess you have to just pretend there's an audience, but then what if there's like 3 viewers.. you can't talk to 3 viewers the same way a streamer talks to 5000 viewers. At that point it's not a chat, it's 3 people.
You can talk to 3 people and have a genuine conversation, but is that entertaining? It's more just a conversation, it's bit too serious I think. You might start asking the question "maybe I should not be having this conversation on stream but instead I should be talking privately in a dm"

I don't know I feel like there's just a different style of stream that the popular streamers use and it can't be mimicked with less viewers. But I don't understand what a successful small stream looks like because it's impossible to tell which 1-10 stream is going to blow up and what is just a boring streamer who will go nowhere

>>40220925
and of course this omits the possibility of streaming actual entertaining content that doesn't need the streamer in a sense. things like being good at a videogame, making something, drawing something, etc.

Can you even do a just chatting stream if you're not popular? Can you react to videos, or play a game you suck at if there's no audience? All the popular streamers do that most of the most of the time and it's entertaining because they're interacting with the chat.
But without a chat.. if you're playing a videogame poorly, it's not funny, you're just playing a videogame poorly.
Is it even possible?

>>40221182
I'm not saying I don't want to stream actual entertaining content. Of course that's important but my point is. Should I not be trying to act like a popular streamer in some sort of fake it till you make it routine because it just doesn't work without interaction? And instead I should be acting in some different way?

>>40220925
I do commentary to nobody all the time, i even talk to myself sometimes when i play games. you are thinking too much and talking to little. if you do it enough it becomes second nature. i sit in a more less slow discord call with friends and i just start talking to myself until someone says "nice commentary bro". It really doesn't matter whether anyone is watching or not. The chat gives you more to interact, but you are the entertainer.

But I understand if that's not your type of thing, then your challenge will be to get viewers to your stream before you start. I have never done that and I'll probably always stream to 10 people max, but I enjoy that dynamic. Even if there's streams where i just talk to myself for 4 hours, that's why i stream. I just like talking that much. I also have serious conversations on stream, but they are contained within certain streams (designated zatsus), you can really do whatever you want. It's your stream. You just have to find something you are comfortable with and be aware of the possible value you bring for potential viewers.

Does anyone know how one would make a scrolling list of twitch subs that scrolls vertically and updates automatically?

>>40169426
What are your thoughts on PC specs for part-time livestreaming?

I was initially eyeing a laptop that I can bring with me for mobile conferences / WFH / VA / freelancing projects.......and then can use for mild gaming + streaming on the side.

Initially, I was going for an ASUS TUF Dash F15 2022 (the one with Alder Lake 12th gen)

But seeing as Intel announced 13th gen mobile + Geforce 4060 Mobile, I think I could wait a bit

I think that should be enough for:
- Apex Legends
- COD Warzone
- RUST
- Escape from Tarkov
- Overwatch

right?

>>40221375
a laptop won't be able to stream any of those games other than rust

Why is it always streamers with insatiable egos that can't take a joke from viewers without banning them always the most popular people

You could call me a faggot and I wouldn't ban you, even if I had 1k viewers I still wouldn't

>>40221477
With the 4060 mobile rumored to outperform a 3060 desktop, it just might be possible.

Anon may need to dial down some settings at 1440p.......but it is doable.

Also, 4000 series brings improvements to NVENC and AV1 encoding as well

>Anno domini 2023
>I am forgotten

>>40222834
You're just remembering selectively or maybe you choose your streamers selectively. It happens but streamers aren't good people or even capable people, they're just people, and they have a microphone and an audience. It's going to bring that out in many people because the allure of being petty is very strong. On the other hand, sometimes jokes just aren't as funny or appropriate as someone thinks. Viewers get banned and probably evade and streamers get cancelled but not really most of the time. You don't see it as much with smaller streamers because most of them are inept or fearful of chasing away viewers. If they were bigger then many of them would be petty too.

>>40220925
>If there's no viewers.. talking to nobody like that just doesn't make any sense.
But there could be viewers. If you're sitting there saying nothing because you think there isn't anybody watching but some one does pop in but doesn't say anything, how long do you think they'll stick around watching you be a mute? Unless you're watching your viewer count like a hawk and immediately shout out any new viewer in which case that also turns people way off. You need to treat it as if you have people watching because you just might and not know it. It's also good practice.

>>40221357
Ask in the Discord

>>40223428
nta, i get how the better NVenc would help, but AV1 encoding is irrelevant for streaming when Twitch only does AVC (Weird to think they did, they'd save so much money on bandwidth/get better looking streams for the same server costs if they switched to HEVC or VP9, although from what i've heard HEVC has a terrible licensing deal)

I need help. I'm having a crisis, a nervous breakdown, over something very important to me.
I have a great desire to become a Vtuber but i just found out that the one who inspired me, Moona, has taken the vax.
For the past few year i have had big issues with the vax, i view it as causing more problems than Covid itself and i have come to greatly disrespect the people who take it.
Now that i know that my favorite girl, the one who inspired me so much, the one i felt a connection with, got the vax i don't feel good.
My stomach hurts, my head hurts, i feel so sad it's making me sick, i feel like i'm falling apart and everything isn't real anymore.
Dear God help me. The world around me is falling apart and everyone i respected has fallen to that disgusting vax.
I still want to be a Vtuber, i really do, but my inspiration has turned into a nightmare for me and it's tearing me apart.

>>40229215
Just do some push ups and play Resident Evil 4, you'll be fine.

Not trolling, and i never had any plans to go into politics if i become a Vtuber. This is just something i wanted to discuss privately (Well, as privately as you can on an anonymous image board) about this because it's really breaking my heart. The stress i feel right now is like someone finding out their sister died. I know Moona shouldn't be that close to me, it's just a metaphor to articulate how i feel.
I would never say such things on a stream.

Atleast she's not XQC who tells his viewers to get the vax then goes to the hospital every other month

not like xqc viewers are real people though

no. you dont tell me what to do. fuck you.

>>40230423
Yeah, at least she's not that extreme but still, knowing someone i care about getting the shot, even if it's just once, is a special kind of pain to me. It truly is.

>>40229215
The problem is you. People that take it don't have the same problem, it's just that they think you're causing trouble and are irrational. These things really don't go both ways and the side that is correct is not the side you're on. I've never felt like you are describing because I've never been delusional. Most people can't help you or empathize, all that can be done is sympathize and hope you get over it. Moona is not going to think worse or fall to pieces if you're anti-vax, she's not going to feel much if you get it. She's going to make a small comment and move on. So it's not her problem because to problem is not located with her. You're very textbook, I can open a textbook and it describes the essential themes in this post.

>>40229215
>>40230244
I'm going to totally level with you anon. The only way--and I do mean the only way--you can possibly get over this is if you man up and get the vax. Then you can move on with your life and stop having all of these intrusive thoughts.

>>40230739
>People that take it don't have the same problem
The people who take it either did it out of fear, pressure or coercion. It's either weak minded or weak willed and i don't respect that.
>it's just that they think you're causing trouble and are irrational.
How so? All i did was make a few posts about how i feel.
>These things really don't go both ways and the side that is correct is not the side you're on
More and more information keeps coming out proving just how bad the vax are, just how wrong people were to get them and just how much the people who were against it are being vindicated.
>I've never felt like you are describing because I've never been delusional
My pain is just delusion to you? As if i don't have any real problems?
>Most people can't help you or empathize, all that can be done is sympathize and hope you get over it
Well i appreciate that but i can never get over it. Dozens of people in my own family got the vax and even though they shit talked it later and admitted i was right i still can't get over what they did. It is unforgivable to me.
>Moona is not going to think worse or fall to pieces if you're anti-vax, she's not going to feel much if you get it. She's going to make a small comment and move on.
Yeah i know, in fact i know that she doesn't even know i exist.
The problem is that i'm thinking worse of her and i'm falling to pieces.
I idolized her, i connected with her, and now i learned that she done the thing i disrespect the most (Not including anything illegal) like watching someone you care about being so keen on selling their soul for magic beans and being treated poorly by the thugs they trusted in. (The thugs in this case being the governments, doctors, etc)
>So it's not her problem because to problem is not located with her.
You're right, the problem is not located with her, but she is apart of it.
>You're very textbook, I can open a textbook and it describes the essential themes in this post.
I politely disagree.

>>40231834
>The people who take it either did it out of fear, pressure or coercion. It's either weak minded or weak willed and i don't respect that.
No, you are the weak, irrational and fearful one.

Which aspie needs to be protected the most?

>>40230977
Yes. This entire pandemic bullshit has made me lose faith in humanity and it is driving me crazy.
I held on to Vtubers to help me but another chain that keeps me grounded has broken off.
>>40231049
Well then i can't respect them and all of the love i put into any of them has been all for nothing.
>>40231701
Hell no. The vax is everything i as a person stand against, it goes against everything i stand for. The very idea is just incomprehensible to my very being and for the past year i have been struggling just to live with existing in the same world as it.

is it significantly harder to be a PNGtuber? ive noticed almost no one clicks on my stream. and plz dont give me that queer explanation of :dont pay attention to it".

>>40232021
I'm not the one who was so afraid that i got bamboozled into getting an untested vax.
I'm not the one hiding behind a mask for being too afraid to breath air.
I really feel like you don't actually care about the problems here and you're just pissed that i'm upset with you favorite streamer.
That or you just can't handle it when your poor choices get put into question.

>>40232239
i cannot imagine allowing something like this to occupy so much real estate in my mind. if you’re serious, good luck dude

I know but it just feels so bad when one of them is someone you respected and loved so much.
Like how a fan feels when their favorite actor is revealed to have done something they fundamentally disagree with.
I feel like i just need a new Vtuber to inspire me, to help me whenever i'm done, someone who knows just how bad and ridiculous the vax situation really is.

>>40231834
>>40232239
>>40232659
Okay calm down for a second.

At the very least you do realize that this pre-emptively ruins all your chances of success at vtubing since the antivax crowd ain't into it. Is that much correct?

Then it wasn't Moona that ruined it for you but your own uncontrollable irrational beliefs. You made a choice to give up your dreams for this nonsense and now you're looking for someone to blame and that's Moona. Blame yourself.

>>40233795
>At the very least you do realize that this pre-emptively ruins all your chances of success at vtubing since the antivax crowd ain't into it. Is that much correct?
That much is correct but for a different reason.
I am a very opinionated person and i have lots of opinion that can be seen as controversial.
I have studied businesses and have learned that being so open about such opinions is a bad look, unless you're very good at convincing people but i doubt i'm that kind of guy.
>Then it wasn't Moona that ruined it for you but your own uncontrollable irrational beliefs. You made a choice to give up your dreams for this nonsense and now you're looking for someone to blame and that's Moona.
I never blamed Moona for anything, i just wanted to express how heart broken i am with her and i wanted help dealing with someone i respected so much turning into someone i don't respect any more.
And i never said i was giving up on my dreams, i even said in my first post here >>40229215
>I still want to be a Vtuber, i really do
I feel like you're biggest problems with me come from a misunderstanding, like you interpreted my post as if i was giving up and i put the entire blame on Moona, but i can assure you that's not the case and i apologies if i made you think that.
If i can use an analogy for the situation i'm in right now i'd say that it's akin to a very bad breakup, one caused by an outside force.

>>40234252
>yellow cat
Wasn't here for this. Can i get an explanation please?

>>40234263
Vaxxies can't comprehend that someone is able to see through the obvious manufactured panic that was the plandemic

>I can't believe this employee at a company would do something that was required of them to be part of their company's events, she should have just never gone to meet her coworkers or be in concerts and just sat in her room forever
I don't even care about the actual vax argument, you're a retard for expecting someone you claim to have looked up to to just not do her job

>>40216179
What vtubers are you watching that go that far? vtubing is essentially just "normal streamer with an anime avatar" now. It arguably always was like that, but there was slightly more of a reason to keep up with lore stuff. Western vtubers in general are not expected at all to do anything like that. Which is a shame. I think it sucks people took such a good concept and just dumbed it down to become boring. A vtuber model is just to advertise yourself and catch the eye of strangers more than anything else which is why female vtubers often get more viewership starting out than normal IRL girls.

>>40231073
ugly humanoid models, it's like people purposely tumblr-ing their model because they don't want to have the anime aesthetic for whatever reasons there are

What Vtubers aren't vaxed?
I need someone o inspire me again.

I'm not!

Oh dear lord.

Hey /asp/, confess that have you ever thought about bought Twitch viewers(or planning to)?

>>40236593
Not the Mio i was talking about.

>>40236672
No but I know that lots of big twitch streamers have done it.

>>40236279
>>40236738
>eastern hemisphere chuuba
>not vaxxed
Anon, the eastern hemisphere operates in a fundamentally different way. People take vax because they live with their families and the elderly and don't want others to be sick. You're better off finding a needle in a haystack than finding an eastern chuuba that have not been vaxxed yet

can someone explain babis to me? are they just agp trannies in denial or what

That's actually very noble. I never thought of it like that. But if the situation is that they took it to protect their family and loved ones than i feel like i can respect that.
Like, doing something you don't want to do but doing it anyway to protect those around you, especially from something you know wouldn't hurt you but would hurt them, that really puts my views into a new light, but i have to think about it and see how it fits in with my ideologies.
All in all, thank you.

I knew that.
Hell, i myself am a major germophobe so i myself used to wear masks a lot. Although i stopped wearing them out of disrespect for my government, aka Trudeau.
>Please don't lose your shit again.
Not on here i won't, but honestly, i have disorders that tear at me every day and although i'm really good at holding it in it seems like once every year everything i keep inside me just explodes. It's like my own personal holiday.

I feel like this would make for an entertaining streamer. It would be funny to be so retarded about literally everything
I love it when streamers say things like
>"what is a watermelon? I thought it was just a regular melon that you drink with water"
>"Stop bullshitting me, I know what a potato is" as the streamer looks at an onion

But at the same time I have no personality for the same reason so it would probably be really boring

>>40239641
I'm like 27 btw so it's not even like I'm just a young and dumb kid I literally just procrastinated on life

The retard gimmick works so long as it's not constant, because it can get old quick.
You need to be normal 90% of the time, so that the one odd time that you do do something retarded, it catches people offguard and is hilarious

is 936p the meta or is it a noob trap

Anon, you really do let things control you. Can't make this up, really can't.

Any thoughts on PNGtubers? I'm about to debut as one but I was wondering what the consensus was on them for growth

>>40240244
PNGtubers grow just fine compared to vroids and such. You'll be fine, by the time you reach a point where PNGtubing stops giving you growth you should be able to afford a vtuber model to grow even more after then.

>>40169426
Idol and Pixellink auditions should be added to the OP

>>40240244
who is the artist? i feel like no one really watches me because of shit art i had to do myself.

couldnt get an artist because all i got was shithead kitboga-level scammers who were messaging me with their traced artwork

>>40240244
I think they're interesting because they allow you to break free from the whole "standing upright staring head on at the camera" thing. You can have a totally different angle and extreme pose and also more dramatic art styles that wouldn't work in 3d or live2d

>>40240475
The artist is @_Tao_000, it was for a reasonable price from their PNGtuber package
It's only two facial animations but I was planning on making my own assets for it (angry eyebrows, cat ears, etc)

>>40240475
You have to go to atleast like $100 as a minimum for what you are willing to spend if you want to avoid all the crap.
Below that point and you're in a sea of underageb& artists who will just drop your comm halfway because they're bored, literal scam pajeets, and just shitty artists who don't know what they're doing

>>40240818
bitch i was looking for ANY artist that took commissions and all i got was fake "hello my friend a very hijab day to you" scamming cocksuckers.
try it. go on twitter and post something inquiring about commissions and art for twitch streaming. leave your inbox open and boom.

>>40237853
Melody just to experience the joy of making e-whores seethe

>>40240165
I think the point or 936p is that most people don't watch on fullscreen, so even if the stream is 1080p it will get downscaled to 936p for most viewers

>>40216179
It's like theater for me but I have some acting experience, so that probably helps. Once I see the model moving in response to my tracking, it's automatic. I'm the character. Before that, it's harder. I changed my lore after seeing my first model move to match my experience of playing it better, and did the same for my second model. You're making something "together" with the model to become "you". Hard to describe, but easy to understand once you're in it I think.

>>40232126
He's dead already

>>40241046
Never announce that you want to commission art, you'll only get bots, instead, use the search function

>>40241612
oh fuck true

>>40241798
what do i search? have you tried searching anything? bots again.

I am really interested in getting art and rigging done by Iron Vertex company, but they aren't accepting commissions for at least 6 months I guess.

Hmm.. what would you guys recommend I do in the meantime?

>>40219895
Viewers make the stream. All these people saying "just stream to nobody forever until you suddenly become good and viewers will come naturally" don't know how different, and how easy, it is to stream to more people. I strongly recommend you practice stream for a while and work on keeping your commentary rolling, rewatching yourself, self-critiquing, and then pivoting to promotional content to pull in new eyes after a few weeks at it. If you can't make good promotional content, you simply won't get anywhere.

>>40241880
>don't know how different, and how easy, it is to stream to more people
yeah ok XQC please tell us all how you got your tons of viewers

>>40238792
What's wrong with being Canadian?
>>40240226
Well if i really do let things control me at least those things aren't evil governments and at least they steer me in the right direction.

>>40241848
Search function in my experience has 50% bots, vs the 100% of tweeting out you're looking for artists, i don't look up anything too esoteric, just "Open commissions", only advice is to not look up PNGtuber commissions, they're more expensive with no benefit

>>40242072
how do you deal with retards who try and ask for a bonus fee for using their work on stream aka "commercial fees"

>>40242134
You stop being poor or you lower your expectations to match your means.

I literally have nothing to talk about

>>40242134
If they have their TOS and prices in a public post, just look for someone who doesn't do that shit.
If you find out after asking in private, tell them that at the moment you're mainly comparing prices, about 30% of the time they'll lower the price, and even if they don't they'll be more understanding than if you told them it was too expensive

>Clio got partnered
Groomercord can't stop winning

>>40242190
shut up cocksucker. it doesnt matter if i see the picture or if multiple people do. it should cost the same. if youre gonna ask for extra just cuz it's used publicly youre just a dogshit scammer who wants to take a cut of the pie when you did nothing to earn it.

if i stream theyre paying for ME not your art. choke on dick

>>40242812
Yes, this is the mentality that will lead to a very profitable streaming venture. I wish you many successes, Anon.

>>40242070
Circular justification.

>>40242882
i dont care what a shithead who charges "commercial fees" for art has to say. at best, i broadcast to a couple hundred people, yet you think it makes your art suddenly go up in value by hundreds in cash? fist your mother.

>>40241046
You can't announce you're looking for artists, you have to seek out the artists yourself

>>40241855
did they say that? afaik they are referral-only for the indefinite future

You guys think it's worth going down the furry rabbithole and attempting to bait an audience like that in?

i notice that random small furry artists seem to get more of an audience faster. probably because there arent many.
im not a furry, but hell, maybe i can do it to start then switch?

>>40243273
personally I don't think furry vtubers work very well, and that's coming from a furry.
It's the whole facing forward thing. The muzzle just looks like a little point. You have to show off the long muzzle for a furry character, but you generally face forward as a vtuber.

>>40243266
Twitter says "Commissions closed Q2 2023"

Checked their website and they basically explained that they're a small team and want to finish previous orders before accepting any newones.

But yeah I would love to have them work out my idea for a character. Guess I'll have to wait.

>>40243375
>It's the whole facing forward thing
-_- nigga then draw them looking to the side. 3/4 view is the big hype right now anyway

>>40243402
But if you're always looking to the side then you can't see your screen because you'd be looking at the wall

>>40243461
please google 3/4 view face first, then talk.

I'm so tired... try putting yourself in my head for a moment and you'll understand it's not easy being a misogynistic Harry Potter.
At least, I have you, am I right? Kenji ending best ending.

>>40243071
How so?

Is there much reason for male indie vtubers to do karoake?
I feel like any body interested in watching indie males is in it for the more "bro to play games and talk shit with" atmosphere and wouldn't care or would actively be turned off by them doing karaoke or covers, unless they have an exceptional voice of course. Felt like I should ask since singing is otherwise tied closely to vtubers generally.

And while I'm posing questions, how do you advise indies to stand out? To be more than just another streamer playing games with an anime face? It's easy to say to find a niche but it's hard to actually find one that fits you if you don't have one already.

>>40243740
Some of the indie males are actually pretty good at singing. Other than that it's like any karaoke. Hanging out and having fun

how exactly do you get people interested in you as a streamer/person?
i feel like that's what i wanna do. i want people to care enough about my opinions that i can pull up current events and give my opinion on it.
i just have no idea how to get from point A to point B. if you're in "just chatting" all the time with 1 viewer, no one will ever find you. you also cant really make any hype clips for content to spread online either.

>>40243953
Being a cute girl will get you 75% of the way there automatically. Other than that, be interesting.

>>40243740
Sometimes when you stream you want to do things for yourself and not for success

>>40243953
Put more hook content out, flavor of the month games, trending topic discussion, etc...
More likely to hit the algorithm, get more tourists, and have the potential to hook them on you as a person. That would be my advice if you're stuck in 0-1view hell. And if you have a niche then go out of your way and self promote yourself to people who are also into that niche, it sucks but you got to get your name out there. Can't just keep streaming to no viewers and praying that it changes at some point.

I don't want to be a streamer, but I want to be a vtuber. I think it looks fun to have a cool anime character and be able to emote with it in real time and have cool lore and stuff, but I don't actually want to talk to anyone or stream any games. Is that weird?

>>40243562
You just said that you changed your behavior because of government policy to show they can't change your behavior. Really can't make this up. Please seek professional help.

>>40244510
May I interest you in a vtweeter position?

>>40244184
what would be better, putting vids on youtube or tiktok?
i saw some growth on tiktok very slightly but no one ever checked out the stream. i would assume youtube would be better

>>40244915
Don't use Tiktok, wouldn't know, gut tells me Tiktok viewcounts aren't exactly honest though.

Videos on youtube would be better, especially if you're streaming on youtube, could try shorts too, sometimes youtube is extra generous with the algorithm on those.

>>40244510

>>40253224
>ended up working
I thought you said it didn't go anywhere?

>>40255505
Some people like to do one stream on the other platform from time to time. Games banned on twitch aren't on youtube. Karaoke/other dmca on twitch is far better than on youtube. Trying to get both audiences or a different mood or raid targets. There was also some concern about being unable to stream on discord and if it counted or not.

Do yiou guys ever see Vtubers reaching a cringe singularity whereby loads of people will quit and go normie?

You should literally go find someone else. Iron Vertex is not only the most expensive group in the vtubing industry but they arent the best either. Their claim to fame is being ultra-reliable, extremely fast when they need to be and high enough quality when Brian Tsui is working on things. With the prices you're gonna pay you arent gonna get Brian Tsui and you're gonna get their lower tier artists and riggers under the group's name. Not to mention the fact that they dont tell you that if you ever want to give your model new costumes or updates it would easily cost 5k to 10k for it. Also there's no clout gained from buying from them, they have multiple vtuber clients that arent famous and they are still 2 views even with spending all that money.

So literally find anyone else unless you're someone who's easily make 6 figures from vtubing.

>>40255532
In the end it ended up going nowhere. The application and video got me an interview pretty quick after submission, but i shit the bed at that part.

>>40244564
You do know that there's a difference between being controlled by a government and rebelling against a government, right?
Both control and rebellion is caused by the government yes but the difference is one's influencing people's actions in favor of the government and the other is influencing people's actions against the government.
With your ill-defined logic every act of rebellion and revolution can be seen as crazy.
Imagine if during the revolutionary war everyone had the mentality of "Those Americans say the British can't control them yet they're letting the British control they're behavior? They need to seek professional help."

>>40256969

I would like to become vtuber. But I have poor English, severe autism, Schizo and bad personality. Is their any hope for me to become vtuber?

>>40258432
Yes you can become a vtuber! There are no laws prohibiting you from being a vtuber (but you might not have viewers).

>>40258856
Any one will watch me?

>>40259190
I can't guarantee that.

>>40259521
Sorry.

It's all your fault

Cuddling up with your favourite girl/babi/male while in comfylewd outfits

God I wish that were me...

Setting up ARKit blendshapes will be the end of me

>>40262059
What is a comfylewd outfit?

>>40262388
Bodysuits, leotards, bunnysuits

Not that anon, but pajamas. They're naturally designed to be comfortable for you to sleep in them, but it opens up the door for a lot of eroticism. For example if you have someone with wide hips or big breasts, they might become somewhat tight and form fitting, accentuating those assets. Conversely, on a small person they can be loose and baggy, which both can be used to present the wearer as somewhat mischievous or bratty (especially with oversized sleeves), and awaken a desire in the partner to want to hold them closer, as if to protect them. Either way, the ease at which pajama bottoms can be removed makes it very easy to tempt the other person into initiating something lewd, since they could just slide them off (maybe even using some slight dishelving of the outfit as a way to tease them by exposing underwear). Unbuttoning a nervous lover's top to expose their bare chest is also very erotic. And then there's also the potential of having a lazy partner who feels too comfortable cuddling up in the bed and needs you to carry them to the toilet before they piss themselves. Pajamas are just the perfect intersection between an outfit that's comfy, practical, and lewd without being explicitly sexual on its own.

I'd recoil, I haven't felt human touch in a while

Maybe not the right place to ask this but does anyone know a place to discuss where i can find new Vtubers to get into based on what i'm looking for?

>try to into voice acting for my new year resolution
>search google
>cant find any information except vocal warm ups and shills trying to make me pay money
how do I actually do it... I cant change my voice at all, am I just retarded?

I think you mean "aromantic"
"aromatic" implies she has a distinct and noticeable odor.

Try to copy other voices you like, or make up your own. Record them and listen to your recordings. Then try to improve the recordings until you like what you hear. This is my basic way of practicing.
