Probably, they're narcissistic enough to do it. I'm not going to check as I value my braincells and don't want to end up like protagonist of Hatred

That aside, I can tell they fucked up because several outlets are trying to run cover for Pikamee leaving, blaming the fans or if you skip to 5:43 part of this full on lies where they tried to claim she was harassed by us/the right for being an SJW. It's safe to say they REALLY fucked up with this one, turns out yes, it's easy to target the former bully victims, but now you have to worry about their protective bigger friends...

Do people here really spend time watching twitch streamers and "vtubers"?

I think I'm mostly just confused about how people heard about it in the first place. Was it yesterday, or two days ago that it was first mentioned here? And my reaction was mostly: "Who are any of these people?" And then there was all the praising of this pikamee person, talking about how it was a good thing(?) that she had introduced the "v-tubing" movement to the West by knowing English.

To me, this just seems like another type of twitch thottery. Sure, trannies are all depraved degenerates and the sooner they 41%, the better. I'm hoping their reprehensible movement that centres around targeting children, dies as soon as possible in the most abrupt and violent of ways. But that doesn't particularly make me care for wannabe e-celebs.

I'd say Vtubing is different only because there's at least a skill barrier beyond 'flash tits and ass'. You can have the most 'seductive' model ever but if your personality is shit then you'll barely get a few hundred viewers

On the flipside, you could be a literal PNG of a cartoon worm and get thousands of viewers because of personality and actually be entertaining. And at least they are more honest than ethots by clearly stating 'I'm not for kids, 18+ stream' unlike the tittty streamers.

Yo.

I don't watch the full streams, but the various clip compilations are honestly funny.

The reactions among some of the streamers to this entire brouhaha has been, well... some of them have gotten really, really pissed.

It'll be interesting to see the long-term fallout from all this.

Very few steamers are genuine. They cultivate personas that function as idealized friends in order to generate money via parasocial attachment.

This is a very technical way of saying “no, those streamers were not actually pissed - they were broadcasting emotional responses congruent with the desires of their paying audiences”.

Same, the only streamer I watch the vods entirely for is Joel from vinesauce and that mostly cuz the guy is just funny. Occasionally I watch Pippas streams but I am mostly in it for the clips and long form edited content(like huge compilations like the hololive sports festival ones). Just don't have the time nor the energy to watch multiple hours of multiple people.

I can't say I'm a regular watcher, but it's sometimes entertaining to watch people who are very skilled at a particular game.

Besides, my generation isn't like your LOSER generation. We WATCH others play video games, rather than playing them ourselves. Git gud.

The only reason those "vtuber" things exist is because extremely ugly people saw all of the onlyfans stuff the women were doing there and wanted a cut of the action. 30 years ago the extremely unattractive would go onto careers like pizza making/government customer service. Now they are so lazy that they'd rather make 1/50th of the cash sitting in front of a camera talking about how harry potter is racist while pretending to be a 5yr old girl.

I frequently have a stream open in the background. It's basically like radio, music and sometimes talking about a game.

I don't like either. It doesn't matter how "wholesome" she is, when she still exploits simps for their need of parasocial relationships with women, without even having the consequences of revealing her face.

Blame the simps who want to throw thousands of dollars for a girl to read their name, rather than spend it on a hooker or actually something productive.

Not just any vtuber, but one of the most famous ones who was a big part of vtubers catching on with English speakers. Pikanee was also probably the nicest and least controversial target they could have picked.

Trannies and r/gamingcirclejerk users

But you repeat yourself.

To correct you a bit, Pikamee has been planning to retire for a while for several reasons including having back problems and recently having back surgery. She wanted to go out with a bang by streaming Hogwarts Legacy and just announcing that she would play the game made the tranny twits sperg out.

Pikamee doesn't handle bullying well due to her past trauma growing up as a half-Japanese in Japan. Combine that with her gentle nature and she was the perfect target for the crybullies.

She has been streaming again, seemingly in positive spirits so it's good to see she's able to bounce back. And the tranny crybullies ended up causing the rest of the internet to band against them.

What are they doing now? Well, now they're going after Pippa... and it's glorious because she's basically what happens when you combine VTubing with 4chan.

Stop using reddit. I say so not because I le hate reddit, but because I don't hate you, and you are being brainwashed or at least deceived in myriad ways by bots and fake numbers.

They get off on people pointing out what a bunch of pathetic, petty children they are. This was one more thread than anyone needed to make on them here.
