/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

>>10584115
Funny that you mention it because a month ago people were complaining that she only played minecraft

>>10584115
Botan, Korone, Gura and Amelia ask for permissions for things they want to play. They're the only ones interested in trying out new games.
Pekora, Miko and Fubuki immediately start playing the game if they notice it got numbers.
Then the rest of hololive decides to play it.
Then the cycle repeats. It's how all of them decided to play bus simulator of all things after Amelia got a lot of viewers playing it.

>>10584115
honestly more holos need to make use of their nintendo permissions
ens are the worst for this, constantly playing the same shitty overused games over and over again

>>10584115
Botan is, unironically, the only capable "gamer girl" in hololive. She genuinely enjoy playing games, which explains why she'd want to try new and unknown ones. Unlike others like Pekora who, as already stated by >>10584299, will try "new" games only if they know it's going to bring in viewers.

To this day I still think Korone being in hololive gamer is completely inaccurate.

I was going to say this. It's why I've been enjoying EN and ID more since they seem to want to play new games, despite if it gets the views or not. Recent JP seems to want to play old games that have been done to death like Undertale or Jump King and also opening Pokeman packs like streamers were doing months ago. Also, that stint of Minecraft but on Hard mode. If you're a numberfag, I'm sure you're enjoying the high views but as a viewer, it's just boring and I don't care to watch or support the stagnation. I'll watch somewhere else until they change things up. I'll return when that happens.

Can't stop won't stop

>>10584115

Botan is one of the only gamers in the company. Most others are just pattern monkeys content to play the same dull shit for years.

>>10584115
she's pretty based, yea
spelunky when tho?
or a little bitta isaac perhaps

>>10584115
huh? luna beat mega man games lately and today started to play actraiser. shes good at action games. not high skilled player but her skills like that of the average male player.

also korone never stops playing games

>>10584115
>go into a random JP
>minecraft isnt the only thing they play
huh... must've been unlucky I guess
>go into another random JP
>still, minecraft isnt the only thing they play
Could it be that OP is shitposting?
>go into the "big" minecraft JPs, miko and pekora
>they still dont only play minecraft, in fact right now they are playing different games
And then I realized I'm posting in a bait thread

>>10584115
Calli never got the permission to stream Persona 3...

>>10584299
Kinda true, I don't think I've seen anyone play WarioWare before Ko'one did.

>>10584115
>>10584642
This
EN gen2 only played other games for like the first one or two weeks then it’s fucking endless Minecraft

Being the only one to shill shovelware in hololive isn't something to be proud of.

>>10584299
>M-Muh permissons
shut up you dumbfuck. Girls have confirmed the games they have permission for is in the 4 digits these days, you don't need to play minecraft just because you don't have permission for the newest game in the fist week like a adhd cuck.

>>10584299
Yeah you telling me it is Botan/Gura/Korone/Amelia that tried out Papers, Please first. You fucking dunce.

no

its just eops only care about western games

>>10584572
>"gamer girl"
Gamer grandma you mean. And I love her for it.

Minecraft is just the go-to collaboration game with no player restriction so its easy to see why they spam it as much. It will die down soon enough.

>>10585275
I agree with that other anon though. In 9 out of 10 cases its those four starting new trends.

>>10584115
I love botan

>>10584982
Yes she did. They even stated "wtf are you talking about, we aren't stopping you stream that" on Twitter when she was doing her cringe stream.

>>10585393
>It will die down soon enough.
Remember when people were saying that everyone would stop playing minecraft after the summer festival?

>>10585969
They did. Pekora stopped for a whole month in fact .

>>10585969
The girls that are playing minecraft with any sort of regularity are way in the minority. Everyone's just doing their compulsory check-in once in a while. You barely have two concurrent streams that aren't outright collabs anymore.

>>10584653
Ah yes because Aqua, Luna and Okayu don’t exist. You faggot get out here.

>>10585348
>Grandma

>>10586503
What is that hot new game that any of them are playing?

Aqua in particular was more than happy to jump on the hardcore minecraft bandwagon. Then she beat it and fucked off forever. That is, until management made her play minecraft to promote a song.

>>10584115
Botan is getting gen5 to play Diablo 2 remaster, Lamy is starting tomorrow
Kiara will try to do the same with HoloEn but fail

>>10586655
>implying they will even get to play it
The servers have been a shitfest since launch and there is no sign of them ever fixing it thanks to the on-going federal investigation

>>10585050
anon those games were chosen by the management according to their character themes

>>10586639
Yes because Aqua had enough of Minecraft for now, she doesn’t feel like playing the game and she said it herself, but Hardcore presented an interesting challenge for her, and specially the fact everyone else in Hololive was failing at it, she wanted to be the first and clutched it.

Luna is always playing something different. Just today she was playing the Actraiser remake.

>>10584115
Botan paradox games when

>>10587082
mingsplosion into actual death threats speedrun

>>10584299
This permission cuck shit only happens with japanese companies. They don't need permission to stream western games.

>>10587251
They do.

>>10587251
They technically do because of Japanese law.
Also Western companies going after streamers isn't unheard of. Like when the firewatch devs outright stated that pewdiepie should remove streams of their game from his channel purely to virtue signal even though their website stated that anyone could stream it. God knows what would have happened if that had actually went to court. Would have been hilarious.

>>10587251
You are retarded

>>10585050
Well to be fair, they are preparing the portal area right now, so I think the whole Minecraft thing is going to be something that is tempoary, except for Minecraft Autists like Kronii and IRyS

I hope that is the case at least

>>10584115
Lion does what Owl cannot

I kneel...

>>10584115
It just seems that way because you only like fps/typical PC games and Botan is the only one who caters to that niche in JP. The other Holomems play plenty of other games but you don't care because they aren't the kinds of games you like

>>10587857
Yeah why doesn't Owl play city builders? She has the theme and the mannerism for those.

>>10587486
naughty dog
they copystriked many streamers

>>10587640
And Portal Area / Linking Celebration should be this week then really comes the build up for EN Festival and I'm not even sure when that's supposed to happen (Christmas??)

>>10584299
this is true

Botan is a very emancipated and feminist woman who does not kneel to societal norms and roles and carefully crafts her own identity from the plethora or possibilities in life.

>>10588065
Right, wish someone would have taken them to court to possibly start the permission apocalypse for western streamers.

>>10588001
Because she doesnt play video games. She is only there for the money

Give me your streamed game wishlist in hopes your oshi sees this

I'd like to see Dragon's Dogma streamed please, seeing them customize their characters would be enjoyable. Divinity OS2 multiplayer run might be fun to watch as well.

>>10584299
>They're the only ones interested in trying out new games.
Mio too at one time until it got her in trouble...

i wish someone would play Worms
>Gura and Ame just did
well shit, how am i supposed to complain now?

>>10587486
>Japanese law
I don't think so. Streaming games don't fall under fair use in US law either.
Nintendo and Atlus have striked western streamers before

>>10588577
As much as I like dragons dogma its just not a good game to stream. Nobody wants to watch a stamina bar run out and refill every couple of seconds while trying to get from point A to point B in the fuckhuge map.BoTW is different because you have so many options for travel on top of teleports. In dragons dogma its only running
And I doubt they'll even know of the existence of mods that fix all of its issues

>>10588787
all the downtime they get from running from A-B will give them a moment to read my supa. Besides im curious what kind of pawns they would make mostly, even if the stream is just a one-off.

>>10588577
Kronii: Max Payne series, Braid
Mumei: Civilization, City Skylines

>>10588787
Jap companies now want permissions for mods too after a guy that translated among us into Japanese threw a huge hissy fit on twitter when Nijisanji used his mod without crediting him enough times.

>>10588577

>>10588577
Kronii - Little Misfortune.

>>10589172
And then you might possibly have the publisher not liking their game be streamed in a modded state and withdraw or withhold permissions for that.

>>10589172
you sound like a tranny dramaqueen. just one mod? then the mod creator was just autistic.

>>10589172
>a guy
individuals don't have much power in these situations

>>10589605
Theres not that many examples of chuubas using mods because of it. Marine was forced to make the Rimworld hololive sprites herself to avoid those issues

>>10584916
every thread in this godforsaken board is bait until proven otherwise

ahh yes just another minecraft stream coming up

>>10589866
fuck blizzard

>>10589686
Boy, you missed the shitshows with mizuryu kei, that gundam yaoi doujin artist, that dumb dice game dev, holobass and the among us translation?
All those shitshows involved a single schizo throwing a hissy fit on twitter and causing trouble for nijisanji and hololive by rallying anti schizos to their cause. (Except holobass who didn't get much traction.)

>>10590036
Same energy as me saying fuck walmart before I go there to buy my cheap shit tomorrow.

>>10590247
Hardly, blizzard's numbers are declining not inclining.

if she's active on airsoft, then she met Dustelbox. I should review his content, she's probably there

>>10590415
Amelia would have streamed it before her if she wasn't deadly afraid of her own fanbase.
I'm amazed Pekora's fanbase didn't have items or sprays with images of illegal stuff.

>>10590515
lessons were learned from the gartic phone debacle

>>10590320
that has little to do with their shit practices and more to do that they stopped making good games, hard to fuck up a remaster though.

>>10590626
Well they managed that with WC3.

>>10586731
>feds
I must be living in a cave because I've never seen this mentioned.

>>10589055
Max Payne 1+2 would be so great, think I'm gonna replay them now.

>>10590754
Used to be only a local lawsuit involving the state of California, now has gone federal because they are threatening their employees with layoffs if they even dare talk to people
This is obviously, illegal.

>>10587251
game companies can copy right strike whatever the fuck they want. most just dont care because it largely benefits them. cover is an entire fuckig company so they need to play it safe and get permission or else some fucking copy right reviewer can just press a button and nuke a quarter of everyones archives like what happened before

>>10590515
>already coping
Bad thread

>>10590515
>Pekora's fanbase
JP fanbase. The stream worked only because JP viewers are unironically better educated than us, and if I remember they also do some kind of pre-filtering. Just like they don't get complete randoms in Mario kart or Smash streams.
You can bet your ass that if they have allowed anyone from the West it'd have been an absolute shitfest. Literally just one retard from /vt/ would have been enough.

>>10584167
it's fine to go on a minecraft/apex frenzy from time to time, as long as more variety comes after

>>10594455
She was on a public server and a fucking anon from here had an ogey face on a melee item. The fact that nothing fucked up happened was probably sheer luck that a troll didn't get in.
Nice job not only revealing that you're talking out of your ass but also that you didn't even watch the fucking stream. Go swallow more jap cum you fucking weeb.

>>10594603
>She was on a public server
>you didn't watch the stream
... are you unironically retarded?

>>10594603
That was a redditor, pic related same guy with the ogey sign

>>10594738

>>10586824
Then I guess Korone is playing it off stream

>no ones talking about subaru playing mother 2

kek this is the limitations of this casual shit board. if they play some once-popular western shooter/open world shit on steam, they are "gamers". otherwise they arent. if some holo member played stalker soc or deus ex or fallout nv she would be the gamer god of vtuber. very flimsy amerimutt/spic standards.

at least they dont play woke shit except a few of them unknowingly pick it. modern western aaa games and many indies are simply unplayable because most of them are woke garbage or just boring repetitive shit. and you know nothing bout japnaese games either while judging vtubers by the shitty reddit standards. dont ask too much.

>>10587251
We don't really know that. I mean Kespa had issues with Blizzard back in the brood war days so that proves the opposite. We gotta remember it's a bit different when you have an organisation making money from your work compared to a single individual, it's not worth for game devs to go after a single streamer but when they can attack organisations it seems to be different.

>>10588577
Migo... Halo Trilogy... onegai
Microsoft has always had an unhealthy fixation with Japanese consumers anyway, this would be the perfect opportunity for them to shill their new games

>>10590415
Way to prove his point. Try again when Pekora autistically plays CSGO twelve hours a day and calls someone a nigger before being kicked for friendly fire

>>10584115
Make up your mind, /vt/

>>10595001
Mother 2 is old.

Streaming old and tested greatest of the generation games is not really as commendable as jumping into the massive slew of indie games that come out everyday like Botan. You pretty much know you're going to play a good game when you sit down with Mother 2, meanwhile you never know if you try modern Indie.

>>10595001
Mother 2 is woke shit. Happy Happyism is an attack on based people.

>>10595001
Admittedly a Jap trying to figure out the extremely 90s American Conspiracy Scene which was a the original Deus Ex would be fascinating.
Although it'd be completely untranslated because it's the 90s and why would non-Westerners play computer games.

>>10584115
Grandma Lion gives no fucks

>>10587251

They still need to, usually westen games are just fine with them streaming games, hell I bet some of them are even surprised in a "Why do you need permission, just do it, it helps our business lol" way.

>>10588577
I'm a mecha faggot so I'd love to see any of them play Super Robot Wars (then again copyright's probably gonna be a bitch over there) or even play Gundam Extreme Vs Maxi Boost ON among them

>>10595001
mother 2/earthbound was never big in either country
that would be like any of them playing system shock 2 nobody would care

>>10595001
Just like no ones talk about her playing the old FF7, because she's a terrible player. She keeps on completely breaking the story immersion with le funny character names or by asking chat what to do instead of trying to, you know, play the fucking game. That's what happen when you try to hard to be funny, I have no idea why she keeps on doing that.

>>10595469
they dont play oldschool western games anyway except for some popular ones like myst, cause they were too irrelevant in japan. they play their oldschool and quirky ones and its a good thing, but these casual retards cant value it because of their western centric casual globohomo faggotry or steam-circlejerking. these dont even play stalker or early fo or deus ex either. i just researched what games some of them are playing nowadays

subaru: mother 2 (nes)
luna: actraizer remake
okayu: seiken 3 remake
pekora: kirby super dx (snes)
korone: ff9, kirby sdx, yoshi craft world, dai no daibouken, etc
miko: undertale
fubuki: edf 5, re 7, yoshi craft world
mio; edf 5
aqua: nier autmata
kanata: mario kart 8 dx
lamy: mh stories 2, made in wario, and diablo 2 remake on todays stream (jp time)

as expected, op is a lying faggot and all of these globohomo faggot casuals just have no clue about jp games.

>>10596339
oops mother 2 is an snes game. my honest mistake

>>10595630
I don't there's a chuba who could do a SRW stream justice. That's Nightmare Mode.

Even I, in my infinite narcisisicm, probably couldn't do it justice. Even if ultra swole privacy protections for public personalities were enacted, Cancel Culture and commentary community faggots all got dumped into mass graves, and the market was ripped wide open for aspiring male chubas who no longer needed fear the tyranny of (mentally) 13 year old girls on Twitter and their armies of simps, I still don't think my or anyone else's blowhard ramblings could come close to the level of professional Japanese voice actor tier thespianism needed to keep the hype train going for hours on end. SRW is the kind of game I would only watch a professional voice actor play, so long as they could give Galo Thymos a run for his money the entire time.

Some franchises just can't be done justice by any less than the absolute best, most hype streaming experience. We're a long way from that. /m/chads will likely never be able to find a chuba that can actually cater to us, because that requires being so much larger than life than polite society will currently allow. And I don't mean in demeanor. Just shouting at a screen doesn't make you larger than life. It's the attitude.

>>10584299
Gura is unfortunately responsible for the Henry Stickmin meta that swept Holo for like a month+.

I mean, it's a very Gura-ish game in all respects, perfect for her - but odd to see random ass JPs who have no idea what like 3/4ths the references are playing it.

>>10585050
Yeah because we all want to see things like rrat playing that stupid pedro game or Mumei dig a hole for 2 hours again. Actually, I kind of liked the mumei stream for how absurd it was, but you wouldn't want that every week, it'd get old.
