/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

>>25726862
Blame it becoming mainstream. Since it's a streaming job it became a competition for the top.

>>25726862
The actual schizos are in the yt comments of streams because there's not an edgy or shitposting culture there where you get rewarded for annoying people.

>>25726862
I wish I knew. Vtubing is legitimately more I'll than Dr. Who fans at this point.

>>25726862
Schizophrenia is the cornerstone of idol culture.

>>25726862
-Emotional tension and delusions between the audience and the performers.
-Traces of ancient religious worship behavior (mikos etc)
-Idealized anime style.
-Illusion of accessibility.
-Allure of seiso and light teasing.
-Many hours talking to them triggering a sense of being related/friend/GF with them
-top-down hierarchy (loads of drones competing for attention from a single queen)

That tension between "close enough to chat with" but still with a level of distance fucking destroys schizo's minds, specially with small indies. Also the paranoia of thinking other viewers might be DMing them or being closer with them, and the grooming mindgames. It's a schizo machine, and they are trapped in it.

>>25727316
Other otaku hobbies are generally object oriented instead of social oriented, so they generate endless autistic discussion of minute details, powerlevel wankery and preferences instead of these kind of relationship/selfsteem/emotional/social issues

Similar pattern can be seen with idolfags and kpopfags. Less so but still present with seiyuufags.

>>25727316
huh, you're onto something here

>>25727316
>That tension between "close enough to chat with" but still with a level of distance fucking destroys schizo's minds
I should also note that one of the most known triggers for schizophrenia is the parents being ambivalent to their children, sending mixed signals. This "close but far" mixed signals in vtubing are similar.

>>25727316
But someone is actually aware of my YT social on this site and I want to s t r a n g l e them. Whoever you are. Some 4chan weirdo? A cover employee (not streamer). The shork? The ripperoni? I want to s t r a n g l e you

>>25727463
isn't schizophrenia some sort of brainrot like demensia? why are you making this out like it's some sort of disorder triggered by evnvironmental causes?

It used to be the big theory when I studied psych. Seems to have evidence. Good ol' genetic vulnerability that can be triggered by environmental factors, yeah. Alzheimer is more objectively organic-only in causes and mechanisms (those fucking mangled proteins that keep sticking to each other inside your brain)

>>25726862
People underestimated the effects of bringing anime to real life.

>>25727514
Yeah, me.

>>25728866
Thoughts on the latest song?

>>25726862
They're not, 5ch did a survey on which otaku are the most scary, vtuber fans were in the bottom half while train otaku were top

>>25729278
was that survey after the kyoani burning? that might skew the results

>>25729278
I can't conceptualize in my head over the fact that trainspotting generates the most schizophrenic of all hobbies out there. What's with trains that attracts those people?

>>25731055
I have to wonder if there's a correlation between train maniacs and Thomas the Train Engine.
Like I see shit like Train Simulator having more than like 2k worth of DLC and realize it actually turns enough profit for this to be a yearly release...

>>25726862
It's just live streaming, but with another layer of delusions. Would be weird if we weren't schizo

>>25727514
come on, shill me your channel

>>25726862
It's not much more insane than ordinary otaku shit once you get past the demented unicorns and the people they've successfully psyoped and gaslighted into acting like them.

>>25731695
This issue is that if you don't know my full youtube account you can't find me. Someone knew the first half of it, and just googling that wont show up in results

It's nit just vtubing it is the fact you are forced into the same arena and have to interact with them daily. Thise schizos were always there.

>>25726862
Women in anime act like I want them to. Vtubers don't.

>>25726862
Don't fights regularly break out at LL concerts? Vtubers still have some ways to go

>>25726862
This is just how all fans of streamers and >newer youtubers are.

>>25733509
not sure I understand but well, I understand not wanting to share it here, good luck with your vtubing

>>25726862
it's true to an extent but as usual the worst kinds of people are the ones that whore themselves for your attention. 80% of fans are are fine and simply watch without interacting with the community much. it's the one with too much time on their hands that do most of the discussion everywhere; a good portion of which is the loud mentally ill crowd

>>25733924
For explanation, it's an account name like "John Smith" but like, you know internet name like "xxS4tan Slayer11" someone knew the xxS4tan part

>>25726862
In the case of vt, its all just qa shitposters

>>25726862
