/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

You guys are only calling this hot because its someone else's mom. If your actual real life mom did this to you, how would you react?

Localization as a concept is fine. Its a necessary and important part of most translation work. The actual problem is the localizers themselves. Its not the process, its the people. Localization is a job that requires an extensive amount of skill and mastery not just in both languages, but also in creative writing and copywriting. Hiring people with the required skillset comes with great cost. Naturally, the problem is no one is willing to pay these costs for stuff like this or games and other assorted media, with wages being below minimum wage and job requirements being almost non-existent. As a result, the quality of the work is way, way below acceptable, and a lot of the people doing the work are underskilled people from very poor countries like SEA willing to accept the paltry wages (and they aren't even English natives).

But lets be honest, none of you care about any of this shit. You only care about epic western memes or politics in your translations, and I'm talking about both involved parties (pro and anti-localization). The quality of localization in this sort of media will never, ever improve as things stand, and a key factor in why, besides cost, is that no one involved gives a shit, and that includes (You).

Pretty much everything I said also applies to why English dubs of Japanese media is also garbage, by the way.

What did you honestly expect?

>haha you morons japan is so xenophobic and racist and they hate you and blah blah blah
Reminder that every single person who posts this, without exception, has never ever lived in Japan. They get all their information from the internet and have zero first hand experience.

Nothing, not a single thing he gets accused of is founded on any actual evidence or proof whatsoever. Omega was simply /vt/'s biggest scapegoat during one of the heaviest shitposting moments of its history.

You'll notice that this board is so juvenile that this is a common trend. Something bad happened? Mori's fault, Omega's fault, etc. Something good happened? Dmitri Jap did it, Gura did it, also Gura is Dmitri. Proof? It came to me in a dream.

Fubuki needs to be punished for her abysmal taste.

Dude you know how fucking good we had it without Advent playing Minecraft? Unique games being played, everyone had their own taste, the girls were all playing fun games. Now we're just gonna get Minecraft. Minecraft all day motherfucker. Block game, bitch. This is gonna fucking suck.

Listen fucker, there's only so much I can post about Korone and Koyori streams. I like to post screenshots from their streams when they're happening and kindly let people know that they're doing things. Not scream their fucking names like a retarded, neanderthal cunt every minute on post cooldown like a fucking nutjob.

Either you need to take your meds or I need to take my meds.

Good. It's nice having people with personality and interests in the group. You seriously want even more girls singing country songs and Taylor fucking Swift songs?

People make fun of these fags because every single time without fail, they debut and talk about being gay as shit while almost exclusively resorting to sex jokes to carry themselves. The entirety of NijiEN has basically been tainted by a bunch of fucking crazy people who only have sex related topics on the mind.

Of course people are gonna make fun of it. Of course they will, you retard. The hiring managers in charge of NijiEN only want one type of personality, and they've repeated it multiple times now with their new debuts, it happens every time without fail. It already started with this guy >>51904695.

>except silverwhore was blubbering in ironmouse's post/pre/whatever concert vrchat video lmao
>"bbuh buh i love u so much buh buh"

Yep. And she saw how retarded and scummy that is, so she stopped and left. Specially after all the others turned their back on her.

Changing your mind is not hypocrisy, means that you grew as a person.

Every time he turns around in that area I'm incredibly fucking stressed.

Watchalongs are shit content. Games just happen to be inherently more interesting and engaging. I'm not exactly sure what happened with Irystocrats but I'd say the same thing. I'm here to watch you bitches stream and actively do some shit, not exist on stream to catch up on your wack ass netflix backlog.

Polka's outfit is probably the worst alternative outfit in all of Hololive and I really mean that. You have SSS tier shit like Noel's casual outfit and Botan's most recent outfit, and then you have actual "what the fuck was everyone involved in this thinking" tier with Polka's outfit there.

>Maybe he has a kid names Dahlia

You ever think that maybe nobody gives a fuck about what-if/roleplaying questions?

FACT: making newfags seethe and making them look like retards afterwards is the most basic level of gatekeeping possible, and should be practiced constantly in a healthy board.

Which HoloEN do you think has the worst game choice? I'm talking about you seeing the thumbnail or seeing it on the schedule and thinking "Man, fuck that."

Which one do you think has the best game choice?

I think Oblivion's a hot steamy shit of a video game, but it's such a jank piece of shit that it turns around and becomes hilarious. I genuinely think the Ame Oblivion streams have always been a good time to tune into just because of how broken everything is in that game.

Watson's game choice is dog shit about 80% of the time, but the Oblivion streams have made me laugh multiple times.

You guys ever get the urge to type some advice or general knowledge in the chat to help Gura (or whoever else) out but then realize your advice will just get washed away by the 20,000 other people and then you don't bother because it's a waste of fucking time?
I don't want to be a backseating little bitch, but sometimes I just wanna steer them in the right way. But that's pointless. It's better to watch the chaos. It's better to watch it erupt in flames because that's more entertaining.

Not only does it have to do with Japanese streaming autism, but it's also a double whammy of being a Japanese music stream at the same time. There's no winning with this shit.
