/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

/asp/ie bros I don't feel so good...

I want to become the vtuber XQC

Questions for you lads:
What's your progress so far in 2022? Reached that viewer-count you wanted?
Finally started your design process?
You HAVE been actively working on making it, right? You aren't just tweeting and daydreaming!?

>>17672373
Seems like a realistic goal, just do everything he does, but better in every way

>>17671896
It's a bad move if a have a Youtube Channel where i speak and a Twitch channel where i speak Spanish??

>>17672774
I've been streaming unsuccessful for 1-2 years but I'm trying to start tweeting to change that. It's rough because I actually don't use twitter otherwise but I'm trying to find out what works. Teasing streams etc. but so far no huge success.

I live streaming and i enjoy my stupid 3d avatar but everything else is tiresome.

My only goal is just to not give up and so far I'm doing good on that front....

>>17671896
Hi folks, can I get someone to rate my voice?
These recordings aren't fully relevant, I am discussing mic settings in them:
The first two are before my shitty mic broke:(quality wasn't wonderful anyway pain)
https://voca.ro/19C0JNL13qpX
https://voca.ro/102E79e2fqG8

Here's a recording after my mic basically died just to prove it: https://voca.ro/19Dx7GNjdtU1

Is this good enough to do GFE with? or interesting? I was just curious
i ordered a new mic btw, hopefully I won't sound like a complete faggot with it

>>17675289
You sound cute, would Gosling for/10

>>17675289
You sound like a girl using voice changer to have an even higher pitched voice.

But yeah it sounds good, I like it and you have a nice accent.

Your mic might still work, it sounds like some cable is fucked.

>>17675289
Amy, why are you on 4chan? i literally was calling you all last night but you wouldn’t pick up the phone. please come back. i know i fucked up but you don’t have to leave me please please i need you. i know you’ll just ignore me and the other anons will think i’m just a schizo but i recognize your voice as my gf of 2 years and i can’t bear your absence

>>17675289
You sound kinda cute, but as >>17675683 said, you sound like you've got a voice changer on. Not much of one, but it's kinda weird
Probably less so in longer segments.

>>17675712

>>17675683
thanks
I'm not using a voice changer, just raising the pitch naturally, i wonder if my shitty microphone makes it sound that way

>>17672151
Here's some pills

>>17672774
I reached affiliate, but haven't really started streaming proper, because I'm still getting the L2D model done, and maybe 3D, too. I don't expect to succeed, so I want to at least fail in a way that I find enjoyable. Somehow, a year has passed already. At least I met some cool people.

what the fuck is this tierlist

Hello /asp/friends, my cheap camera is doing so bad that it works only for around 5 minutes or once in a lifetime (everytime i stream). I have been working on my character redesign for a long time (I have improved at art a lot), which means regardless of what happens I will have to switch back to PNGchuba. Is that stupid? I feel like there is no difference between idle vtuber animation in l2d and PNG. I assume that there is no way to make your model change your mouth whenever you talk throughout a program for free? (Or maybe I am just blind, sorry).
I would also like to know about camera recommendations. I heard Logitech is good. Right now I can't afford a new camera so I will have to save up for a long time, but I am used to it. (Most likely won't be able to get a new one until autumn)
With switch back to PNGchuba I have been working on channel points assets, so I guess that would be at least a little bit more entertaining for viewers?

>>17678543
I can definitely believe that Bao doesn't know how to read

>>17681657
/vsj+/ split thread

>>17672774
I haven't even started tweeting...
since my design is still unfinished
F

>>17671896
So searching for commissions is getting tiring, should I just start faceless for now and get myself a proper model along the way, say a month or two, or should I start with the model from day 1

>>17681738
you could just link your face parameters to the mouse movement and mouth open parameter to the microphone

Anyway
https://olmewe.itch.io/veadotube-mini

>>17684220
png chuuba first unless you're VERY confident that youre charismatic enough to grab an audience on your own. theres no shame in vroid either, i have friends who use it and you can make a real good model with it as long as you're creative

>>17671896
pls rate my vroid model so far
still figuring out an outfit, i kinda want to go for sailor girl

>>17684950
Looking cute

>>17684950
Cute, i would make distance between the eyes bigger tho

>>17684950
is there a way to get the chin a little less pointy? otherwise youre fine. get a little sailor hat and you're ready for candy island

>>17681738
Do you have a phone? Using one of the many apps (i use droidcam, it's cancer but it works) you can use your phone's camera for that instead of buying a new camera.

I will give you a fair warning, keeping the phone cam on for longer periods of time will nuke the battery potentially (decreased capacity due to extended usage), but i have a chink phone and i haven't noticed any issues streaming for a year.

Afterall the camera doesn't need to be good, it just needs to be good enough to generally capture your movement for whatever program needs it.

>>17684950
cute! the design reminds me a little bit of retsu who is another /asp/ie but it looks like you're leaning more into the nautical theme

>>17684950
i also had a boob pocket but idk

>>17685214
>but i have a chink phone and i haven't noticed any issues streaming for a year.

da god xiaomi phones. will never go back to amerifat phones

>>17685305
boob pocket's a bit much but it's not bad, honestly id say the design would be perfect if you nix the sweater and just have the sleeveless crop/skirt combo. sweater kinda muddles the design and takes from the theme

if you're a male you're ngmi

i was terrified of trying to chuuba but watching /asp/ies and getting advice from these threads has made me really excited rather than terrified, can't wait til my model is done. thank you /asp/

>>17686068
good luck to you anon! i hope to see you on the other side

>>17685552
i know but I'm too invested to stop now, i can always do my hero stream later

>>17685552
/vt/ said the same thing about corpo males and now look at luxiem.

>>17686068
Good luck anon! Streaming is both more fun and harder than expected, but I'm so glad I started.

>>17671896
I think the OpSec guide could use a specific mention to only use fresh accounts for all games. Mauthe's guide in the General Pastebin kind of mentions it but it's easy to not think about because the section focuses on social media. Reusing game accounts has the same issues as social media but I think it's far easier to overlook and deserves to be mentioned as something that can cause issues.

What's Twitch's stance on streaming on emulators brehs? Been searching for answers all day long but it's a very vague ground. I've seen people show the physical CD case (I can do that, but that defeats the entire purpose of being a vtuber in the first place), but some small vtubers would just start the game right away.
I really want to stream my childhood games and go on nostalgia trips

>>17688498
they can't tell unless you go around showing it off

>>17688498
grey zone is unfortunately the answer, it's very don't ask don't tell so as long as you don't mention savestates and you're sure it runs smooth before you stream (ie you don't want emulation only glitches issues to be very apparent)

that being said i rarely see people get hunted for it, and im not sure how twitch would even crack down on it? like i could just print out the cover for illbleed and say i own it, or send them an ebay picture.

>>17688498
I’ve never heard of somebody getting in trouble for emulation.

>>17688954
Miosha... Not Twitch nor an indie, I know, but still

>>17688498
Can't do shit about it if they can't prove you're emulating.

>>17688498
No one cares. I play on real hardware, but they can't prove you don't own the original game, and emulation itself is perfectly legal.

>Do Angle X of rig
>Looks perfect
>Add Angle Y
>It looks like a deformed blob with eyes moving all over the face
Welp I guess I'm only sticking to X

>>17672774
I'm happy because almost finished the model, i draw it because i'm poor as fuck.
After all the mori drama i don't think i will even use twitter except for post when i will start stream.
Fuck vtweeters

>>17686068
such a cute anon

is there a game you're excited to stream? maybe an old favorite or a game you think is underrated?

i want to play some of the nancy drew games, i feel like theyre easy streamer targets but i think they can be very engaging and charming while also being very silly

>>17699783
don't play debuff games

>>17688498
Korone has used emulators on stream.

>>17699783
no one cares

>>17688498
Vinesauce made his streaming career playing off of emulators, I think you're fine.

>>17699783
you could always say you imported a copy of (x) (which would make emulating it legal) because again, how can they prove you didnt?

>>17697695
i'm planning on doing a hypnospace stream as my first stream even tho i've played through the game a ton already

Seeing as how actual reactive controller overlays exist, I wonder if it'd be possible to make something like Mori's controller accessory that actually matches your inputs...

>>17703011
I have good news for you
https://sadwhale-studios.itch.io/spud-controller

>>17692671
Do you need help?

>>17706147
Not really it's more of a lot of work going down the drain for trying to cut corners at a certain point. I'll try to work on some other parts of it and then come back to it later with a fresh mind. It's mostly the combination of X and Y that's bringing me trouble.

>>17685552
This doesn't work any more, there's too many males who have and continue to grow. It's great bait to reply to for a bump though

>>17697876
The hype is nearly dead on this one, but that's normal with Vtubers getting the scraps of Twitch regulars 2 weeks later when a game loses its relevancy.

>>17672774
my youtube videos have been stagnating at 10+ views and 2-3 likes and comments. it's been consistent but idk how to grow, i've been shilling my stuff on social media like twitter and instagram.

>>17675289
Yeah sounds like you could pull off GFE or little sister.
What microphone were you using? What microphones do you have in mind?

What does one talk about when there's no interaction from the chat? Sometimes I feel like I'm talking to the void.

>>17675904
No, you are using a voice changer, and yes people will know.

>>17710468
Talk about the game, make observations. Make jokes. If I'm playing a backlogged game or a game I don't mind being mildly spoiled because it's been on the internet for so long anyway, I'll look to the game a bit like the devs past games, similar games, generic Wiki Trivia Page information, game history for those Legacy franchises like Mario, etc but it's really up to you. Go watch some smaller streamers with less active chats and maybe you can get an idea as well.

>>17710468
sing

>>17710468
Talk about something you're thinking, something you'll do later or happened earlier to you. Ask people how are they feeling. If you are playing a gamethen just react to it and talk about it, you're constantly reacting to things in your head you just don't talk, but you can. "I should do this then that I think."

Stick to reacting out loud or saying your minor thoughts instead of "talking to someone" when there's no one or almost no one at all in chat.

>>17571730

I did the funnee vocaroo but went to bed and the thread died.

https://voca.ro/1228VxF5TzXq

>>17684950
The face was somewhat off, as >>17685023 and >>17685098 pointed out, so I separated the eyes a smidge, and widened the cheeks a little bit (it's faster than reducing the chin size, at least on PS using Liquify)
I'll try to draw the face to point out more desirable proportions in a little bit.

>>17706484
If you're satisfied with angle X, it's actually better to copy it to the corners and modify it instead of trying to fix synthesized corners

NTA but how do you spot a voice changer?

>>17711399
NTA but listen to the handling noises in her microphone, they're not as bassy as you would expect, her plosives are very pitched, and her voice is unrealistically high.
This is my Blue Snowball on the included stand, no downwards pressure added, moving it around a melanin desk (low friction), in the first second of her audio you hear handling noise, and it's nowhere near the level of this mic:
https://voca.ro/12aFKV67KWl7
This is how lightly rubbing the microphone sounds:
https://voca.ro/1eJiuZsI9aDF
This is how scratching the microphone with my short nail sounds:
https://voca.ro/17A1rTT9WzaK

Most crappy microphones don't really pick up lower end, but they definitely do pick up reverberation and room reflection, albeit very muddy and with no definition.
This is how plosives more or less should sound like (depends on the microphone you're using, the Snowball has a lot of foam internally, so they're relatively muffled):
https://voca.ro/14hScjIklvVW
Now listen to her first vocaroo at the 14 second mark, the small gust of air that hit the microphone should've made a much lower pitched sound. Even your cellphone can get plosives and their pitch is appropiate.

In conclusion, GFE cadet should not lie about her pitch correction or voice changer use. We don't care if she uses it or not, but presenting it as if it's her natural voice is deceptive.

>>17711332
I think it's improved. The rounder face goes well with the big boobas.

>>17711399
Sometimes it can sound like a voice changer when it's not, specially with a small recording, but if you listen for a while you easily tell just by how it affects the parts that aren't clear voice, like when there's some breath and texture to the speech or the voice in relation to the room. You can't hide it, you can mask it very well if it's a simple +1 or -1 pitch. But never perfect. Now when you use anything that actually tries to modify your voice to be feminine, not just simple pitch, it's instant, there's some very obvious aspect to it.

>>17711979
Now you pointed it out. I can hear it.
Initially I just thought she had a weird voice/bad mic.

>>17712271
I think she wants to be Shondo, but more comprehensible

>>17710468
>>17711014
This, a good rule of thumb is to voice out any inner thoughts during streams, no matter how small it is.
Think of it like you're attending a project's strategic meeting, where people brainstorm their ideas on every detail

>>17672774
I'm halfway to 50 followers and I've been doing my singing reps because when I hit 50 I'm gonna do a karaoke and make a fool out of myself.
kinda regret not streaming for the entirety of december but that was out of my control

don't think I'll graduate from being a PNGchuba cause my laptop can only run indie games and I don't wanna risk adding more load on top of streaming.

I need some advice on how to set up a 3D model. basically I don't have $$$ to commission a Live2D so I want to buy a premade model and use that for streaming.
I picked a model and it has .vrm too but it's not a vroid if that's important.
it will be temporary and if I make enough streaming I will get my own model.
now my question is, is there any 3D tracking software that uses iphone faceId tracking? (kind of like Vtubestudio).
I don't need fancy tracking I just don't own a webcam and can't afford to buy one.
my only other option is pngtubing but it's too stiff and I don't wanna waste time waiting for an artist to draw me a png.

>>17711046
nice voice

>>17672774
Got 50 followers and finally got to start doing fun things with emotes and point rewards. I never had a goal beyond that so now I'm just streaming and trying to be entertaining for the people who watched and subbed. If I succeed doing this then that would be great, but I won't be hung up if I just stay this way.

1.5 months into my vtubing career, almost reached affiliate! I have a 3.9 view count average, recently been pulling 5-8 viewers every stream, just need a coupe more followers

>>17672774
Not reached the viewer count I've been after, but I've been inching up, so I'm starting to get that bit of growth I've wanted.
Need to be doing more work on my clipping and editing reps, and on my being funny reps.

>>17672774
Model is still getting rigged, kinda figuring out what to do before it's ready, I want to have a personal roadmap for videos and events I'd like to do, but also keep them within reason for what I'm capable of and making sure I'm not blowing my load too early and burning out before I even hit 10 ccv

I want to do a small giveaway for when I reach affiliate. What do you guys think, is the milestone too small? Should i plan for it to be leading up to affiliate (like a countdown, I have <10 follows left to go)? Or for when I do reach affiliate??

>>17722125
I think it's a big milestone for small streamers, sure. I did a small art giveaway for mine. Do make it a lead up thing as you might just attract some interest to your stream, people like to feel good about themselves for helping out small streamers.

>>17724493
Thanks for the suggestion! I'm also giving away art lol. Did you require ppl to follow you to enter the giveaway? I was gonna limit to twitter followers because I'm not sure if asking ppl to follow my Twitch too would be too much (plus it would be kinda hard to keep track)

>>17725490
>Did you require ppl to follow you to enter the giveaway?
Yep, I think this is a given and not something anyone will complain about.
>I'm not sure if asking ppl to follow my Twitch too would be too much (plus it would be kinda hard to keep track)
I made it Twitch follower based and it was a mistake (hard to track and contact people). I would strongly advise just doing it via twitter and mentioning that people should check out your twitch and follow there as well. Good luck anon!

>>17725490
If you want to make it easier, you can use Gleam. Link it to your twitch and twitter, you can set it so that people get tickets for following you on one or both (or have to follow on both to be eligible). These will be false follows though.

>>17685002
always cute

Who do you watch to stay on top of trends? Doesn't matter if it's games or meme or whatever.

If i made a hat in Blender for my Vroid, and in Blender my Vroid is already wearing the hat (Used the model to get the measurements right), can i export the model+hat as FBX to link them in Unity or do i need to import them separately?

>>17732745
I follow the #vtuber tag on twitter lol
It usually shows me a variety of posts from big and small accounts

Sorry if this has been asked to death, but what are some decent microphones under/around £100? I just want to sound comfy

>>17699783
No one cares. Dot is a Twitch partner and was playing Final Fantasy III on Famicom, but translated, just a day or two ago. It's fine.

Hey, just a dude stopping by. Can't be assed to read through the entire board to try to get a grasp on things.

Is this board full of people trying to help each other get started as vtubers? If so, kinda weird to me, since that sounds like it goes against the whole anonymous thing.

What are fun things to do with handcams?
Preferably not a super expensive hobby.
Also desk mat suggestions?
Glove suggestions welcome but not required

>>17737486
some people don't post their links and just talk about their experiences but its really only this thread and /wvt/ that really focus on the "getting started as a streamer" thing
the rest of the board mostly focuses on the big vtubers

>>17737551
if you don't know already then don't. you should look to do a handcam stream because you already have something planned to do. painting figurines, cooking or showing off some arts and crafts. if you don't have an idea for a handcam stream go back to your drawing board and figure something out.

this is the same as asking "i want to be a chuuba but what game should i stream?" on 4chan. if you don't already have an idea figure one out, don't go asking strangers to make your content for you.

>>17737486
Shut up faggot.

>Is this board full of people trying to help each other get started as vtubers?

You're laying it on a little thick there, bud.

Here is my Jermacraft with a headset mic.
https://voca.ro/13wnPLdDRc5x

How shitty is it?

>>17739367
it's fine but you like every other aspie, need take deeper breaths.
seriously consider getting a better mic because headset mics can't capture the bass notes of a male's voice and make you sound more nasally than you actually are.

>>17672774
I'm gathering money to buy equipment and a proper PC but i'm also practicing my commentary reps while drawing and learning more about live2d

>>17737551
I’d personally go with well fitted nitrile gloves (I have a lot due to working in a lab IRL). I’m not a fan of bulky rubber gloves I’ve seen some VTubers wear and nitrile gloves can look hot. They’re not completely opaque if you want full coverage though.

>>17741864
How've you been, Anya? Who are you watching this weekend? What are some enjoyable and creative streams you've seen lately?

for rigging my model, how should i divide up the art? like front bangs on one layer, head on another, eyes, pupils, back hair
does anyone have like a reference pic i tried looking at videos and stuff but idk

Here's something more indepth if you're looking to rig as well. It's definitely the ultimate guide as far as Live2D from the perspective of an artist that works with riggers.

>>17746062
omg thats like super helpful thank you so much

>>17744487
My room doesn't have acoustic treatment, still will my voice sound better?

Also, I found Yamaha AG03 for cheaper, is it as good?

>>17746634
>My room doesn't have acoustic treatment
unless you're recording voice lines for projects or doing commercial voice overs it really does not matter. you'll have your zatsudan bgm or video game music going on constantly. viewers really don't care and none of the viewers who go out of their way to watch a 2view's stream gives that much of a shit. you can always upgrade as you make money from streaming.

>>17745067
uuuuuuuumm is the offer still valid ill even cosplay as your oshi or something youd have to buy the cosplay though of course lole

>>17746634
Anon do your research there millions of resources fo streaming equipment.

I just sent the artist I'm commissioning a reference I drew myself...I know they're laughing at my negative art skill

>>17748496
they probs dont care i bet they look at bad art references all the time dw about it

Obligatory "not a streamer" but I do vtuber shit anyway.

Over the last few months my channel growth has completely stagnated. I mean -90% monthly sub count and I'm lucky if a video does the numbers in a week that they used to do in the first 24 hours.
I have no idea what's causing this, though. I'm uploading just as often, I've been spending more time and effort with editing than before. I've even been trying to collab with other channels to broaden my audience, but it's like Youtube recently decided my channel doesn't exist. (The Subscribed/Unsubscribed ratio went from about 20/80 to 50/50 over the last few months, so this isn't just a theory.)
I've thought about branching out to other types of content, but my last few attempts to do so were all met with lukewarm reception. Is there some Youtube secret that I'm missing? Should I start blogposting every day in the community tab or uploading shitposts as Shorts?

Budget mics?

>>17751542
your situation is too specific to be helped with general information so unless you're going to link yourself, your guess is as good as any other anon's.

the trend with indies is that a lot of them will be "pre-debut" whether or not they have a PNG and when they feel ready to debut they will
i don't think doing one matters that much though i did a debut stream to 1 viewer because i didn't market myself before doing so and i think that's really the most important thing when you want to do an event like that
if people don't know you exist and your announcement is buried in a tag with hundreds of other posts, it will be hard to get noticed

>>17754170
>example doesnt seem to have one. and i think that took a toll on her exposure hence shes stuck with having no viewers at all.
i know this is a shitpost but not having a debut is not the reason why she's sitting at single digits. it's because no one knows she exists. she could have done a debut stream and would be sitting at the exact same numbers.
>no marketing
>no advertising
>no social media presence
her panels aren't even set up yet. she started 4 days ago, what the fuck are you trying to start here?

>>17754680
maybe its a friend trying to shill them? or someone who went dumpster diving to save someone they think is cute?

>>17754728
>friend
would hate to have a "friend" like that
>saving
can't save those who refuse to help themselves. if she's still streaming a month from now and wants to ask for advice she can come here herself.

>>17754566
There's a fuckton of these pre-debut vtubers nowadays. All they do is tweet forever and ever.

debuts are stupid
just stream when you're ready, tard

>>17754937
>nowadays
i feel like i haven't seen "pre-debut" in names as frequently as i used to back in last february, but maybe that's because they don't just appear on my feed anymore
nowadays i feel like people just stream with a png and forego the predebut title more often than not
>>17754915
gonna be honest i didn't watch any of the stream i just saw it was a genshin test stream so i didn't get any impression on the streamer themself

>>17755071
Debuts are great exposure to a wider audience if they're hyped up, but you should still be creating content during them so people know what to expect from your actual livestreams. Both methods are fine and can lead to success, and if the only downside is some time wasted then I don't see the big deal.

>>17754680
>>17754728
>implying im her friend and shilling
i know jackshit about marketing so idk why you'd call it a shitpost

>>17755284
the bitch
>she doesn't have a debut so that's probably why she's hurting for numbers
comment is a red flag for shitposting. debuts as your first stream are hololarp.

>>17744379
If you're completely new and have totally no idea what you're doing, get elgato, it's a decent mic with mixing software, and it would serve as an emergency backup mic if you have equipment malfunction or looking to upgrade in the future.
If you already have a semblance of knowledge, get at 2020 xlr and get a decent mixer

>>17748763
I know but it still feels like showing your parents your drawings in elementary

checking my twitter posts, it seems like just tagging isn't really doing anything using envtuber / vtuber tag basically gets 0 impressions, weirdly enough if i do polls they get more and i get a couple interactions.

maybe it has something to do with the link being in there? what kind of analytics do you get on your go-live posts / other shitposts? i'd be curious to find out

still have no idea how to get followers. i suppose i have to beg for followers by replying to f4f posts until i vomit...

>>17757590
artfag here, literally no artist has given a shit about this, literally anyone i know who does comissions will agree because its 1000% better than just writing it out or sending us a bunch of references that you as the customer will have to have us correct a billion times

>>17757823
literally no one does follow for follows except other vtubers, so if thats what you want, thats what you get. interact with your audience, polls are good, ask open ended questions your followers have to type out. rt other vtubers. etc.

>>17757823
>maybe it has something to do with the link being in there?
no. this does not apply to you. this from a retarded "study" that hootsuite did from their company's twitter account with over 7 million followers. this does not apply to indie vtubers with barely triple digit followers.

>go-live posts
by definition these should have shit engagement. the number of random viewers how will be enticed to leave a website and go over to twitch to watch a brand new streamer just from a go-live tweet is basically nonexistent. these are just reminders for your regulars and you should treat these tweets as such.

>>17758490
>this does not apply to indie vtubers with barely triple digit followers.
nta but smaller indies low hundreds of follows) have experienced this as well. I've seen better link-clickage after I started putting it into the replies. I used to do Image+Link, but I started doing Image with Link in replies and the same week and weeks after, people who follow me (mainly non-chuuba friends/acquaintances) started showing up a lot more often since it reminds them that I stream. Some of them hadn't showed up to stream for months since they're not normally viewers.

>>17759212
>nta but smaller indies low hundreds of follows) have experienced this as well.
it really doesn't work like that but if it helps you sleep better at night be my guest i'm not your mom.

Tomorrow is it, aspiebros. I put in my audition on January 5th after working on it almost a week. Tomorrow will officially be the deadline. I know it doesn't matter but I still hope I get the email.

t. 0 view male.

Why would a normal male become a vtuber?

look man... life's hard enough already let me have this one thing

>>17761312
Well there was that one guy who draws for veibae and he does camless streams with a gif that copies his mouse/keyboard patterns or smthing.
>>17761737
I've thought about using a female model too.

>>17761312
I'm a client facing middle management guy, I don't want to show my face and expose my power level to the world that would risk getting my career demolished in an instant. Imagine your clients finding out you're talking nonsensical shit in the internet that's nothing like your professional image

>>17763316
to be honest, i didn't even plan to use this model for vtubing and it's not even an oc donut steel.

character is not sexualized either and i really like the vibe the model gives and i dont know what male model I'd want to have, probably something sci-fi related (mech suit, something with cool colors like zens new teased one)

>babi
>the only time people cite any success is one extremely early adopter with amazing connections

Yeah, good luck with that. People get filtered by that shit.

>>17764030
if it's just for a hobby then no one gives a shit. if you want to make it then yeah babi is a huge fucking debuff. the problem is when /asp/ies never state what they want and flipflop between the two just shit up the thread.

>>17764102
If you're doing this PURELY a hobby I don't really see the point in posting here to begin with unless it's for technical help with making things work. What your model looks like, what you sound like, etc shouldn't matter at all as long as you like it if it really is just a hobby. The only question worth asking here as a pure hobbyist is"how does OBS work?"

>>17764236
and just to clarify I don't mean "make it" as in hit a massive number of views, but just generally aiming at some form of success outside of "Yeah a few people clicked my stream and liked it."

>>17764236
incorrect. Hobbyists can want to master their hobbies

>>17765213
>can want to master their hobbies
there's a difference between mastering a hobby to financial success and mastering one for personal fulfillment. they're not the same thing.

>male with female model
>>17764030
This guy's 100% right.

If you want to stream to friends there's nothing wrong with that, have fun with it. But it hinders your marketability and stunts you real early. You'll hit the glass ceiling really quickly, trust me. There's nothing wrong with it being a hobby. If you're lucky you'll hit 5-10 viewers. If you're extremely well connected and charismatic you can get to maybe 100 and you'll be completely maxed.

If you want legit numbers get a handsome anime guy avatar like how successful females get cute girl avatars. Not enough people do it and the few that do get a shit ton of success if they look decent, and friendly and keep up with streaming regularly.

>>17765268
i can see that being true but do you have any further explanation why it would be that way? is it that you can't simp for a guy with female model? i have been streaming for a long time but i literally can't watch other people stream since i think it's too boring so i think im missing a couple chromosomes to understand the appeal of vtubs in the first place

>>17765682
Besides not being able to simp it's just... weird, you aren't really marketing for anyone since male viewers will just go watch one of the hundreds of other female vtubers that are actually females and female viewers will want an actual guy or actually just another cute female to watch, you are also missing out on just being a trap/femboy and just acting girly
It's hard to explain but the audience that wants babis isn't really there to warrant its existence, so much so that in the general community most people wouldn't even know the term

>>17765682
Males want to see the cute girls with cute voices, or a fun bro to feel like they're hanging with
Females want to see handsome guys with handsome voices, or to feel like they're hanging with a cute non-threatening girl friend

If you have a cute model but a masculine voice people will find a cute model with a cute voice. A cute or handsome voice will carry you farther than a well done model, but they have to match so they don't evoke uncanny valley. When people click on your stream they're looking for a cute girl to watch. When they hear a masculine voice they'll leave. If someone wanted to listen to a masculine voice they'd click on a male model vtuber.

There's no real appeal to any large group of people so the majority of people will get filtered and leave within seconds. Even if they would have found your content interesting they'll be out before that can see or hear it because they wanted something specific. If you were a male streamer with a male model people would stick around to hear what the fuck you're talking about at least because they went in wanting to watch a male vtuber.

But if you dislike vtubers you probably shouldn't be trying to become one yourself, though. You won't have much success if you can't watch other streamers and figure out why they're able to command an audience. And with vtubing your success is determined by two things: 1) How often you talk to other vtubers and your audience in a friendly manner through streams and social media, 2) How often you stream. All the other conditions are things that can be learned, but if you don't genuinely enjoy those two things and do them often you're unironically ngmi.

>>17766446
or i become trans...

fuck, too real anon but thank you for the reality check. i like engaging with people (audience and vtubers) I'm just not a long time viewer, i can probably get the networking part down but getting a new model will be really hard for me.

To the drawing board i suppose and hope i can come up with a design i enjoy vtubing with. If not I'll stick to my shitty admiral and go down with the ship

>>17766446
Honestly I feel like babinikus are just a relic of a time where people thought only female vtubers can be successful. Now that we're seeing more and more successful male vtubers, it's no longer an issue and a bigger debuff to be a babiniku than not.

Luca from Luxiem is pretty normal. Lots of normal JP guys too

>>17767993
Babis are just people who say "No I dont want to be an anime boy, boys are gross, I love cute anime girls! I need an excuse to have a cute anime girl on the screen!" and think "Haha wow, CRAZY juxtaposition because I'm a GUY but my model is a cute GIRL! People will LOVE this!"

There's zero inbetween other than that if we aren't including trannies.

>>17763316
I use a female model with a comically male voice. It's funny watching the lgbt types come in and ask if I identify as a girl when my voice is so overtly masculine. Makes for a good giggle.

>>17769619
link?

>>17767335
It's not the end of the world if you don't want to make money from it. It only really matters if you want to make it a career or go corpo.

If it's a career for you check out Luxiem and over 5k follow guys on twitter and see what they're doing and how their models look. Masculine mid to late twenties fem guys seem to be the most popular right now.

>>17768781
Also this guy's right, don't be afraid to present an attractive male to others as you stream. People will appreciate it a lot and appreciate your content more if you play up your strengths rather than trying to showcase your weaknesses as an entertainer in an extremely "look I'm self aware so it's funny" way.

>>17769619 this guy's having fun though, so ultimately, fuck it. Do whatever you want. Just have fun. Don't ruin streaming for yourself but try new shit and see what works for you and what your audience likes. Push for more stuff that helps you grow more as you realize what that is and enjoy it.

>>17769707
I'm just a stinky PNGtuber atm, pay no heed to the ||croc|| behind the curtain.

>>17767335
>>17770280

Honestly. I just had a better idea for a design and it happened to be female, so I just rolled with it, even then I'm still polishing it up. Have fun, and if you are genuinely having fun, it's infectious, and people pick up on that. People can almost always tell when a streamer isn't being genuine.

>>17770280
>try new shit and see what works for you and what your audience likes.
this is the rub that most babi chuubas don't get. it should be what your audience likes.

they have the model of a big titted girl for them and not for their audience. what's the audience supposed to get when all you have with a babi model is your own personal fetish and getting off on stream to your OC?

the problem i personally have with babis and mtfs is that their designs tend to be shitty/too obviously coomer or they have a completely shit tier voice that makes them difficult to just listen to, some of them make me think of fuckin shmorky

>>17770515
It appears to all chuubas tbf, many of them just think "i'm good now" after they get the model, forgetting they need to offer something fun and unique, but i guess because babi is very few so the "debuff" feels more obvious.

Like PorcelainMaid if it's just male voice with that current nice female model and nothing else, i won't even watch him, but he's more than that, he can offer fun content and personality.

>>17671896
What is the recipe for a successful male chuuba? Which route has more odds for success? Fujopandering? Comfy Homie? What are your thoughts?

>>17772265
Entertainment.

>>17770500
>>17769619
Wasn't twitch have lgbt tag, you put it in your channel or they don't care and just come in to ask?

>>17772265
>Fujopandering? Comfy Homie?
neither of these are good if you cant back it up with entertainment skills and charisma, and that goes for every other approach as well
pick what suits you and your personality the most. not every actor can be a comedian

>>17772552
They come in and ask.

I fucking hate intersectionality and want that shit away from me at all cost. If someone is watching me just because I'm black or asian or gay kindly leap off a cliff.

>>17772265
Be friendly and outgoing, already know how to talk to an audience. Take stand up or improv or whatever class clicks with you if you have to. Or watch youtube videos on it. Entertainer practices in general can help you a lot. Practice a lot. Network on twitter. Talk to people and be genuinely interested in what they're saying and drop by other streams to see people play shit and throw them a few chat messages.

Watch people that can talk endlessly and feel like they have high energy then talk to yourself all the time and copy them while you play games alone, or even just sit in a room alone and talk to yourself until you're confident you can do it. Read books out loud to yourself. Pretty much anything actors or actresses do will help you. At this point you can become a successful vtuber with most male models, and pull followers if you stream consistently. But if you want to do it as a career or apply for corpo:

Watch some male chuubas and see what makes them popular. Luxiem has a whole group to work off an entire audience of so they're different in a lot of ways but still worth watching. The 1k, 15k, and 150k indies are promising leads for how to grow at each level. You could play fujo buff games like twisted wonderland (phone visual novel) and probably pop the fuck off but it's better to just make an attractive male avatar you'd be happy with and make them a masculine mid twenties anime bishie and play whatever the fuck you want besides maybe FPS shit.

Try to send your designer character concepts of designs you already like of attractive male characters. If you aren't attracted to male characters in this range ask female friends. If you have no female friends ask gay and bisexual friends. If you have no friends ask /vt/ and pray actual women reply to you for feedback

Being genuinely friendly and/or bisexual is a gigantic buff.

What language tag you chuubas put on if you know more than English(since twitch can't put more than one language currently)?
English with wider audience?
(The other language you know) tag with easier to being noticed and put something like [ENG] on your title?

It's not bait, that is a real chuuba. Crocodile vtuber with a girl model who didn't realize he fucked up til he started posting on /wvt/. Was dumb enough to stream on Youtube as well.

That could be hot... but would they be long enough? Unless I wear something over my arms

>>17782878
There are long nitrile gloves that go almost halfway to the forearm (extended cuffs), and I’ve seen one that go all the way to your elbows. I’ve only ever seen the extended cuffs available in a hospital and not in regular stores though so you might have to look online for them.

The only downside for nitrile gloves in general is that it traps sweat (due to being plastic) and can make it semi transparent. Powered ones might not have the sweat issue, but the hospital and labs I worked in never allowed us to use anything but powder-free ones

Is there even a point posting schedules when you have 0 followers on twitter and twitch

>>17784438
To feel like a corpo.

>>17784438
yes because if you want to have 1 follower then most likely that person needs to know when to watch you

>>17783637
I almost want to try to make gloves that have a solid upper part of some material but have a more breathable (but thick?) material for the palms/etc… but I can’t sew or anything.
Bonus it would probably match my model design (if I ever get it finalized…)

What’s the deal with babinikus and why is the concept so appealing to me as an admittedly straight, white, Canadian 6’1” male?

>>17789838
because there is potential for fun, and incidental drag for the sake of entertainment has been funny for decades

do you feel embarrassed talking to friends over voice calls? It's like the same thing, if they ask just say you're chatting with friends. They probably don't care but if they do, they're the one eavesdropping so i don't think they'd confront you. Unless you're being too loud.

>>17774266
It's none of their business though. I make light of it, but it's just weird people want to know so badly.

What happened to him when he posted on /wvt/?

>>17790819
English isn't my native language so it would stand out if they heard me speak in English, but I could just say I'm talking with online friends and it wouldn't raise any eyebrows.
It's not a rational insecurity, I admit it, but I am a bit insecure about having people know what I'm doing on a computer or smartphone and I assume it comes from the same place.

>>17790523
I've got roommates too, just don't shout or make any loud noises. If they really are strangers then I doubt they'll ask about it.

>>17790523
You won't get over the embarrassment unless you start doing it. It can be awkward at first but babysteps are better than no steps.

>>17791149
I asked a question, was told to name myself first, which I did, and got a fair bit of good advice along with the usual comments one expects on this site. Which is fine, comes with the territory.

>>17791514
are you finally streaming on twitch or still trying to make youtube happen? i remember a chuuba shitting on /asp/ies claiming they would be the first babi to make youtube work but archives are down right now so i can't check.

I’m going to give my model female proportions and you can’t stop me.

>>17792565
mine has chibi proportions, long hair and big lashes, but im not gay

>>17792565
no one is saying that you can't make it. only that it's a big debuff. especially for fresh chuubas who don't have streaming experience. you want as many advantages as you can get to grow. not just grow for profitability but even to grow up to 30 CCV for a small community.

>>17792102
I did switch to Twitch after using both for a little while and just found more traffic on Twitch. I'm using the youtube to upload certain VODs, clips, and (soon) videos.

In all honesty while it is fun to play into I'm a babiniku only because I'm a repressed tranny.

>>17793379
Live you life, anon.

Should i keep my current Twitch account with new username or create new one?
My current one have few hundreds of followers(since i do normal game streaming) but i think 95% of them are dead followers and i stopped streaming few months ago, then i start more chatty when playing multiplayer games without streaming(i was not even using mic when i streaming, feels like just recording a playthough, and it's a pointless one)
Now i think i can do a "restart" now, but still unsure should i go with whole new career or just keep the current account with a new username.

>>17795271
if you care about opsec make a new one. if you don't it doesn't matter. dead followers are meaningless so you won't get any boost. if anything people will judge you for already having followers but zero views.

A couple tips for anyone auditioning for the big leagues. Don't give a shit about formatting since I'm pasting this from notepad.
For your audition tape itself:
1. Make it five minutes. Be as close to this time as possible. Before play is even clicked on your video the length of time is going to be checked to make sure you listened. If you can't fill 5 minutes of video on your own already you aren't ready for streaming in front of a big audience. If you have too much, cut whatever sucks the most and show your strengths.
2. The first ten seconds of your audition matters more than the other 4:50, by a mile. Hundreds of hours of audition tape are received every day and 99% isn't watched beyond the first few seconds. Don't start with a slow intro where you say your name and introduce your character (there's a reason they want the backstory typed out in the description and not explained), start off with whatever your strong suit is. Are you a singer? Start with a 10-15 second bit of a song. Show a collage of clips from your channel that show off your gaming skill. Whatever your personal strong suit is, show this immediately. Also, if you already exist as a vtuber DO NOT MAKE THE AUDITION CHARACTER YOUR CURRENT VTUBER. Show that you're creative enough to come up with something different and new just for the audition and stick to it. Don't type out that your character is a goblin pirate with seven arms and then just talk normally like yourself for the entire audition.
For the rest of the audition:
1. Whether you currently have 1 viewer or 1,000 is irrelevant (To Hololive anyway. Other companies like Nijisanji care about his A LOT) remember that some of their best talents literally never streamed before joining. In some(read: some. not many.) ways having fewer viewers can be a strength if your streams are still worth watching since someone with more viewers can be carried by chat interaction to fill dead air. If your streams are genuinely fun that's key BUT be careful how you answer the question about audience interaction. Don't say it'll overwhelm you or something stupid like that.
2. Don't worry about the rumors that say if you're a male you have to say your favorite talent is a male. Be honest about who your favorite is and why. If you're a guy and your favorite vtuber was Kiryu Coco, say that and say why. It looks better than trying to lie about why a Holostar is your favorite.
3. Remember that collaborations with your genmates are going to be one of the most important pieces of content you make. Convince them you play well with others and don't clam up in conversation. If your twitter is all arguments with other people or bitter tweets, just delete it all or hide it.

They’re actually a Holop

Hello asp!!!! I am a vtuber who is aiming for a model upgrade sometime within the future.

What are some of your favorite vtubers/model artists, in terms of looks (and preferably, someone I can message thru pixiv or twitter)?

>>17795364
>if anything people will judge you for already having followers but zero views.
True, guess i will create a new one.

>>17796851
>Also, if you already exist as a vtuber DO NOT MAKE THE AUDITION CHARACTER YOUR CURRENT VTUBER.

Could you elaborate more on this?
Every other tip is pretty useful too, thanks.

>that thing you're good at doing and have been doing for 10 months
>don't do it
>do something completely different
?

What’s your favourite expressions that every chuuba should have in their arsenal regardless of how often they may use it?

>>17796851
This entire post reeks of bullshit and assumptions outside of the first two points, which should just be common sense.

>Other companies like Nijisanji care about his A LOT
Yes that's why Niji is known for picking literal nobodies with next to no viewership or following compared to the larger holo picks.

>>17796851
>Make the audition tape 5 minutes

I know some people who have gone to interview phases with Hololive with tapes less than 5 minutes, and those who did make 5 minute videos weren't even watched past 3 minutes.

I doubt they care so much about the amount of time in the video, but what's IN the video. 5 minutes is probably just the maximum time they're willing to sit through on a tape considering they're getting hundreds of applications

I, obviously, don't want to give out too much detail to not make my friends uncomfortable if they ever come across this, but the ones I've seen really focused on voice acting, role-playing and/or singing

>>17799518
what are your friends numbers like? i know a handful of indies who put in their apps but never got a single view on their videos. seems like there's a number cut off where cover doesn't even look at you if your numbers are below a point.

What's the acceptable size difference for raiding before it's considered clout chasing?
t. literal 2views

>>17800354
raid whoever you want. "clout chasing" isn't a thing when you don't even register on someone's mind.

Do people actually care about vtuber lores?
I'm trying to create a huge story for my character and everything, but I feel like it's a big waste of time because probably nobody will ever care about it.

>>17800689
anecdotal but i've been streaming for 10 months and never been asked about my lore.

>>17800175
They're quite popular and have been doing content creation for a long while now.

I'm only going to say that their numbers are around 10k-100k

>>17672774
I've played with the idea but would only be for a bit of fun, I could never do it seriously

Quality of rig doesn't really matter for someone starting out, does it?

>>17711898
the microphone that broke down was a blue yeti

>>17800689
your lore should help you get into character and better entertain your audience

>>17802463
not really, the most important thing when starting out is just to get some experience so you can get comfortable streaming

>27” 2020? monitor
>22” TV from 2009
>30+ yro kitchen table is 4’ wide
>PC is on a new Meshify 2 Compact
I want to stream console, but… it would be nice if I could do that from my couch instead of kitchen lol

>>17800689
maybe you can do something cool with it in the future but in the short term no one is going to care or watch your streams more because of lore no matter how amazingly written it is. still, if you really want to have a lot of lore then as long as youre not cringe about it there isn't much of a downside besides the time you spend writing it. but broadly speaking, no, assume no one cares.

bros stop embarrassing yourself no artifacts in the audio
obviously natural

>>17800689
It is a massive waste of time. Ask yourself, when will it matter when all you'll be doing is sitting around playing games, making jokes about the game, and reacting to funny internet videos. How often does the lore of any Vtuber you watch come up?

I think I'm enough of a Menhera to stream now.

>>17806400
Again it's hard to tell with a short sound bite, if it's your actual voice then very nice, it's cute.

>>17806400
like the other anon said it's pretty much impossible to tell with just an out of context clip. anyone can pull off a short 2 sentence line with practice. the real deal is if you can keep that up for 4-5 hours while you stream. if you can then keep it. if you can't then find an alternative solution. there are plenty of streamers who don't put on that kind of voice like Yozora and Eros and still pull in plenty of numbers so don't think you need to fit some stereotypical girl voice as a chuuba.

>>17807946
i like doing it, it was a trend to do this voice at one point when i was younger so i have an ez time and much experience i suspect maybe other loli vtubers have the same origin

loli voice with and without voice changer for study: https://voca.ro/15CbgyzlW1h8

VERY IMPORTANT ANONS you are always accusing ppl of voice changers grrrr

it does sound like she could've had noise suppression on though and that would make it sound kinda weird and fuck with quality

>>17808517
>with and without voice changer
unless you're trying to jerk off to your fantasies about dating a real loli i don't get why so many anons give a fuck and are so quick to jump to this. who gives a shit if they're using a voice changer or not?

What is the best vocal effects that aren't voice changes to make you sound like a cute gril?

>>17809736
Training

>>17809736
>to make you sound like a cute gril?
voice feminization practice

>>17809736

Autotune sHaWtY

>>17810052
>>17810066
I meant vocal effects that weren't for making your voice girly.

>>17810177
are you asking for just regular mic filters?

>>17810236
Mostly special effect filters that I could use situationally. Games, maybe special moments, etc.

>>17810570
>special effect filters that I could use situationally. Games, maybe special moments, etc.
VoiceMod for those.

whats the pro/cons to streaming youtube vs twitch? i barely use twitch (always hated its design) but unfortunately it feels like the better choice for finding an audience. does it depend on the genre? because while i primarily want to do games i want to also do movie watchalongs and (pipedream but) eventually cooking streams

>>17810692
do you want your growth to come primarily while you're livestreaming? use twitch

do you want your growth to come primarily while you're offline through recorded content? use youtube

you can do movie watchalongs and cooking streams on both platforms. there's nothing unique about either of them that makes it better or worse. i guess if your audience is mostly burgers you can use the Amazon watchalong feature and tell everyone to buy the same movie off amazon to sync the movie together if you really cared.

>>17810951
this makes sense, thank you.

>>17806400

Thank you for this, I made a new recording because my new mic came in (its not professional quality but you can hear me more clearly now)
lower your volume to 50 if you don't want to be earraped

This desu. Historicall looking at both NijiEN and HoloEN, HoloEN seems to care way more about numbers than anyone else. Just about most if not all members of HoloEN boast extensive experience in content creation with at evidence that most of them are at the upper echelons of content creators in the community today whether it be from high sub count or a video that has a 1 million views or so.

Whereas NijiEN has a history of hiring people with low numbers as long as they have potential there. Mysta's past life has absolutely no big numbers to speak of and he's one of the most popular NijiEN members today which speaks a lot for their scouting methods.

>>17800689
The only indie vtuber that extensive uses their lore well is Kongou and he sets up massive D&D like games every few months with collabs from other vtubers and a huge community involvement in it.

So unless you can turn it into a community game thing, most people arent gonna bother. It also helps that Kongou never breaks kayfabe.

>>17800689
im surprised im alone in the opinion of liking lore in these replies, i enjoy a set up rather than 'this is just a succubus who is a vtuber' if you have a character to play. i prefer it being fast and loose, and i would save it until you have a debut to present it. also make it accessible, be able to sum it up in once sentence in your description.

>>17811592
>im surprised im alone in the opinion of liking lore
there are 2 types of "lore"
>the one you try to force on viewers because your vtuber is your personal OC
>the one you build with your viewers over time as they become part of your community and watch your streams
no one viewer who stops by 2views and wants to help you grow as a streamer gives a shit about the first one.

>>17811688
no very true, this is preferable.

i can't stand hearing my own voice i hate it so much im ngmi

>>17815294
Literally just do your reps, you'll get used to it eventually

>>17815462
i tried bro, i tried

>>17816878
it takes 3 months to get used to it.

>>17808517

okaaay I get it you don't have to prove it anymore. You kind of sounds like Ash but cuter. I will simp when I find you live.

Tips to be good at GFE?

>>17818146
Watch other GFE streamers

>>17818268
I tried but I don't really see what they do to be called GFE.

>>17818789
>act like a girlfriend
>avoid whore behaviour
>say you like the viewers

Genuine question here: What about BFE? Any BFE examples? I want to get good at coomer bait and all of that kind of ikemen stuff.

>>17818146
Pretend your audience is your boyfriend. Maybe exaggerate how much you like them a bit for some extra sweetness.
There's a lot of talking about your daily life and mundane stuff like that which contributes to the experience. Some ASMR streams where you pamper your audience lots are welcome too.
It's very interpersonal and maybe even unhealthy in the long run so if you fall down this hole you should be ready to commit.

>>17819113
Watch other BFE streamers.

I'm pretty sure that I posted my model sketches/etc. here before, so here we go again. Another base outfit design draft.
I think it might be too busy again though.

What happened to 4chancore guy? Did he ever start streaming?

>>17819807
still here
trying to "fix" my model and shit while waiting for stupid company to give me my new internet service

>>17819113
It's good to be a consumer of the type of content you want to create. I personally find that shit cringe despite being told I have a nice voice, so I could never do it no matter how much it might help me as a streamer. Unless you already consume faggy ikemen shit or are interested in that type of content it's better to just not bother. You'd just pretending and it'll be awkward and pointless.

>>17819806
You look like Aleister the Invoker

>>17820026
>Aleister the Invoker
...That was totally unintentional, lmao.

>>17819936
Alright, looking forward to seeing you start, i genuinely liked your models if it means anything

>>17819806
Feels like there could be something else on your torso besides the bodysuit so you can cut back on the elaborate design, though you can take that with a grain of salt since I'm not really into techy designs.
I'd also experiment with the eye color, making it the same as any of your primary/secondary colors causes it to blend together a bit. As long as there's a bit of contrast, it'll look much better, even if it's just a different shade.

Anybody else gonna make the new thread or is it Anya Time once again?

>>17819806
the green hair ahoge is going to be called a copy of Girl_DM's

>>17819716
nta, what are some good ones to check out?

>>17820571
The idea is to have something on top, but I'm a little stuck on how to keep with the sci-fi style.
I do want to add on giant mech claws and maybe a mask as options, and was originally going to have a tech wear-style jacket but dropped that idea.

>>17820874
No one has said that and no one will ever say that. Every hair color has been taken. No one cares.

>>17820875
shxtou, xkittymcpancakes, and riikami all do it but they've also all got a history of ASMR, amateur voice acting, etc and aren't just people trying to randomly get into BFE, that's why I say it's better to try and reproduce content you already consume. Not saying you can't do it or that only these people can ever do it, but it's very clear when you're just mimicking something you only just now found out existed and actually having an interest in it.

>>17821030
>No one has said that and no one will ever say that. Every hair color has been taken. No one cares.
you sound a little too triggered /asp/ie. you should sit down.

>>17821030
What if the content i already consume is mostly GFE?

>>17821030
Also, thanks for the recomendations, i'll check them out tomorrow

>>17821030
the anon was probably specifically talking about the green hair and the heart ahoge in particular

>>17821390
Create what you know.

>>17820821
unless the thread doesn't die in the next 2-3 hours i'll probably make it
