Why do people always make high quality games for Hololive for free?
And Cover doesn't even have to pay them?
This is literally free publicity
It's not fair

English speakers have access to a wealth of tutorials on YouTube for game engines like Unity and Unreal, so it's easier for amateurs to get good at game development.

It's also free publicity for the developer. Slap hololive characters onto your indie game and you instantly get way more people interested plus free advertising from any of the talents that decide to play it.

it's actually better than 80% of the 2d fighting games from big studios available on steam.
if it had a bigger cast i would probably main it.

>> No.49068536

It’s because there’s no better show of talent then making a game that will be guaranteed to have tens to even hundreds of thousands of players playing. Making a hololive game comes with a built in audience especially if it’s good, you get hundreds of thousands of eyes on it when holos stream it and it will look great on a resume.

Both true.

"""Programming""" in Unreal with blueprints or in Unity by copypasting answers from google (or chatGPT now) both lets you create games from nothing and learn how actual programming works. In Unity you learn by slowly modifying what you're copypasting to fit your precise needs, in Unreal you learn slowly every time you need a custom node to fit your precise needs.
Then after you do this for some period of time, you're as good as the average Microsoft programmer.
Then you slap your game in your portfolio and get a job working on Redfall.


But really, the most important part of any of the things is finding the artists and animators, since the programming side can be completed by coordinated monkeys and AI.

It's worse, the developers send akas to the holos playing the game, just to say: hi, dev here, thanks for playing our game. So the devs actually pay Cover.

because they can't make money selling it online due to copyright reasons but they're not being DMCA'd for releasing them for free, it's pure passion projects.

And who issues the DMCA? It's ridiculous that you're preventing these passion projects from earning anything out of it. Greedy if anything to only allow it if Cover gets royalties from all payments.
I'm glad they chose to contact Ollie behind the scenes for voice work since she seems to do anything she wants before running that through management (Boba shop rap is the biggest I've seen before this)

Nah. Holocure is outright better than 90% of VS clones out there, and arguably VS itself. And even if they aren't good, there's also stuff like NuiNuiQuest, Council RPG, and a few others too so OP's question still remains.

To be fair though holocure is just a slightly different version of an already existing game that also plays itself after a while.
