>look at the chat for a stream
>someone actually says "hey sorry i'm late"
Do these people in the chat seriously have the delusion that the vtuber is going to respond to them personally? Like they're gonna drop everything because "Oh shit, GenericNameMcWeedlord just apologized for being late, I better respond to him." Like maybe if it's a stream with sub-100 viewers where they may as well respond because they need all the viewer interaction they can get, but this wasn't one such stream.

oh gee, what the fuck do you think

[Anonymous No.]

I've said "sorry I'm late", but this was with a vtuber who gets like 20 viewers on average, and who I've spoken with a few times on Discord. I usually try and show up for her streams when I can.

Not to feed the delusions but I have seen a streamer reply to one of those comments during a stream with 1k viewers.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3060565
It's always possible the streamer will look at the chat and reply but it's ridiculous to waste your chance to talk to them on "sorry I'm late" when you could be asking "What are your thoughts on the implications of the falling price of gold on the global economy?"

[Anonymous No.]

If it is a few hundred viewers or less (YMMV), they could just be chatting in general and using that to introduce that they're there, no different from "hello." Otherwise yes they could just be wanting to get a word in in the hopes of being noticed.
Since most chats are genuinely just fluff discussion or hype spam, I don't see why it would even be vexing. Or at least how it would be more vexing than people doing it ironically on 4chan.

It's just the vtuber equivalent of "it didn't scan, so it better be free" and similar retail """jokes""". For some reason they truly believe their chuuba hasn't read a message like that 5 million times already.
Others simply do it hoping their oh-so-funny ironic comment will be read.

So like the Japanese people in chat who say "Cute" every ten seconds.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3078777
Nah, has to be more specific to what's happening on stream and 10 seconds is a bit too frequent. You don't want to end up spamming yourself, you want other chatters to either say it as well or adopt that topic. The simpler it is, the easier it is to understand for ESL and higher chance people who are reluctant to chat will repeat it if it doesn't require a ton of typing. But yeah stuff like "nice shot" or "Don't forget tail" (for the monhun streams), really depends on what's happening though.

I could click a random stream and find it in moments.
Yep, just picked a completely random stream from my subscriptions, immediately screenshotted the chat as I entered, and there were four people in the chat saying it at exactly that moment.
To their credit, I will still take this any day over some English speaker saying "please say ara ara."

All the time. Even if the streamer doesn't see it, I like reading and posting on chat. It's part of the experience, even if my post is just one among hundreds. If no one bothered posting because "oh there's too many people", chat would be dead and I imagine that would be somewhat unpleasant to the streamer.
Ina has replied to my posts a couple times though.

It's just the usual Twitch stuff from years ago, the reason you haven't heard of it is probably because VTubers are probably your first real encounter with streamers in a long time so you're not used to the normal lingo.

You just post in chat to post, when it gets replied to by the streamer it's a nice bonus, that's all

one thing i don't really understand is how the fuck do they make those 6 hour streams with no interruptions? during they day theres always at least few things that i must do but these streamers just keep going like they were robots

[Anonymous No.]

>>3115298
They actually do take breaks to go to the bathroom and stuff, you presumably just didn't see it because you haven't watched the entire 6 hour stream. I remember seeing Kanata go afk a few times during her Jump King streams, for example.
As for why they can handle such long streams, it is their job after all. No different from a 12 hour workday.

>>3115483
I mean, I'm pretty sure that time spent streaming correlates pretty well with income they get from supas etc. If you had a job that paid crazy amounts of money per hour and could choose how many hours to work, would you work one hour or multiple?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3122675
i would not get greedy about it. with the amount some of these stream its literally their life. there will be no personal time left

[Anonymous No.]

>>3122704
The thing is, their "job" is just playing video games for fun and there's no time limit on how fast they have to beat the game. Pekora did what, 12 hours for a single level of Ghosts 'n Goblins? Well, maybe Pekora isn't the best example, because she does not seem to have much of a life. So of course she would be a-ok with spending all those hours on video games. It's something to do. But it varies from person to person. I think, all in all, it's a cushy gig. You can play all day for one day, then take a few days off and Cover isn't bothered by it at all.
