Why exactly is backseating bad?
Especially when a vtuber has been going around in circles for 20 minutes and going "i don't know what to do"
Is it acceptable for a vtuber to say "Okay guys give me some hints" or would you consider that as some kinda sin against streaming?

Tbf backseating should be called passenger seating instead. People in the back have a worse field of view and usually the ones that sit there just complain about the AC. Your dad sitting in the passenger seat is the one who's going to be an ass about your driving, not your lil bro at the back

Depends on the game and situation. Backseatongs dumb in puzzle games or exploration scenarios because it robs the sense of discovery or the “aha moment” which os the entire point of those kind of games. If its something dumb like a chuuba is lost because she has a shitty female sense of direction, then yes backseating is good to get the stream back on track.

It kind of depends, explaining something when a game should but doesn't should be fine, and an occasional hint isn't the end of the world. It gets worse when chat gets filled with people spamming what to do. It's terrible when you have dozens of people suggesting different actions. Then it's just worth turning off chat entirely when you have different people arguing that the only thing that matters is what they suggest, and get increasingly obnoxious in trying to get the streamer to do what they want.

Backdating is evidence of the vtuber's failure to be properly entertaining. If people want her to get on with it and she's dragging the pace down, that's entirely her fault. Streaming isn't a hobby, it's a job. If they'd rather play games for fun then they can do it on their own time off-stream.

This is why certain games (especially ones facilitating actual interaction with fans) are much better streamer games. Competitive games like apex, call of duty, fall guys smash and the chubas are forced to match serious competitors' pacing. There's no such impetus with single player games. That's partly why JRPGs are such a debuff. People usually want speedrunning or the 100% experience, and anything less than knowing what you're doing is a waste of people's time limited time on this earth.

It's no wonder chat would start spamming what to do, when it's tedious watching her stubbornly and childishly bash her head against the wall.

Backseating only feels good for the backseaters because they get to feel like they're a closer part of the stream. For everyone else it gets dull when the answer to "how did the streamer figure out this part of the game" is invariably "chat told them how to do it". It's like going to an "artist's" stream and watching them trace and color by numbers. Sure, technically they 'finished' a drawing.

This makes the most sense, actually. Women react a bit like this when they accuse men of "mansplaining." I don't like backseating though because over time, the streamer can appear to prefer some chatters over others, and that leaves a sour taste for some people. Like "why did you give him a turn to tell you what to do instead of me?" Also, if many people are all giving different directions, then the streamer either decides from among them or chooses what they were going to do in the first place, and at that point, it makes sense to shut down backseating altogether.
TLDR there are several reasons to not like backseating, and almost no benefits.

This entire post hit the nail on the head. Maybe the problem with allowing SOME backseating is it inevitably snowballs into chat ONLY backseating and nothing else. So it's best to shut it down early before it gets out of hand, because chat can't keep themselves moderate. Moderately backseating should be fine but I've never seen it never done properly.

It actually IS kino content. This is the closest interaction you will ever get to banter between streamer and chat. She can banter with individual chatters, but an extended bant with the entire chat is impossible unless it is done with a situation like backseating where she can "soft reject" everyone and lead them on.

This is entirely dependent on the kind of game, and the timing+wording of the backseating. If it's a puzzle game and they've been struggling for 5-10 minutes on a puzzle, leave it. It's fun to watch people fail at things sometimes. If they've been at it for 30 and it reeeeally shouldn't take that long, they need to accept the backseating because then they're failing to entertain chat and probably getting sick of it themselves. If it's more open ended like minecraft, you just give them a tip they may not know and leave it. Both the streamer and the chat need to have fun, you just need to realize it's a balancing act and act on that.

>> No.12171895

>> No.12172495

What's the point of finishing a game while being backseated? It just becomes going through the motions. The meaning has been completely stripped from the symbolic act of 'finishing' . Even playing Soulslikes with quicksave mods is more meaningful.
It's the same issue with following guides to 'finish' redstone contraptions in Minecraft. Sure, something was made, but the streamer is made completely irrelevant - anyone else could have been put in their place and the exact same thing would have still been made. It wouldn't be so bad if they actually learnt how things actually worked from following the guide, but almost universally when they run out of guides, they run out of things to build.
If backseating is supposed to boost game experience so much, then Kiara must be one of the most entertaining and engaging single-player-game playing chuubas on the planet, because she freely lets chat backseat her through every single game, down to skill allocations, secret locations and grind periods.

More like it's a male thing. People make fun of male streamers when they express being affected adversely by randos in chat, because that they are showing uncharacteristic weakness. This is especially amplified if the personality being showcased is supposed to be some alpha male fuck-and-kill-everything-that-moves equivalent.
Also that unlike corpos with everyone-is-welcome appearances to maintain, and as males, they can aggressively do things about it like having mods banhammer anyone who does it, so whining about it doesn't make much sense. If a female does it, she's trigger-happy and her mods are white knights; if a male does it, they're just asserting their authority and laying down the rules.

Most people do NOT have egos so insanely massive that they get mad when chat helps them out a little during a tough part.
It depends. If a streamer is having chat play the game for them, then there's no point. But if they've been stuck on something for a long time and at that point it has stopped being fun for chat to watch, I have no issue with asking for help.

how the fuck did you get that implication?

I'm sure there are streamers that want to be handheld like babies. However, if there's a streamer that made it very clear what their stance is on the subject, why the fuck can't people respect it? She's not holding a fucking gun to your head and forcing you to watch.

Are you fucking retarded? Whether or not backseating is okay or not is entirely decided by the streamer themselves, you asking this question shows that you fundamentally don't comprehend the concept.

People get obnoxious with it. It's not always bad. Even gura recently said that sometimes she relies on chat for help, but some people try to autistically micromanage how others play the game to be exactly how they would play it themselves. I tuned into Irys's POV of B4B, and there were a decent amount of people trying to tell her exactly which guns to use. It's her first time playing and like any normal person, she was just experimenting and seeing what she liked, but chat was filled with "IIIRRRRRYYYSSS USE ASSAULT RIFLE! USE AK! USE MACHINE GUN!"
I'll only throw suggestions out if the Vtuber is obviously clearly struggling for more than a few minutes.

spoiling the game: chat bad, stop
streamer knows what they're doing: backseating isn't a real problem (botan, flare)
streamer doesn't know what they're doing and tries to pay some attention to chat for legit advice while staying focused on the game: backseating isn't a real problem (kiara)
streamer doesn't know what they're doing and it's the funniest shit: backseating isn't a real problem (nene, subaru)
streamer doesn't know what they're doing and is consequently bored, boring, and frustrated: backseating hell, streamer attempts to tard wrangle chat in an unfunny or serious way and fails, either accept the streamer is bad or watch something else (ina, ame)
if backseating is a problem it's more likely that you're a bad streamer than chat being bad, any streamer that has to mention backseating is shit tier usually

>> No.12183051

I don't understand how people do not like backseating. The funnest part of games is discussing strategy.

>> No.12183680

If we're talking about first time games, fuck backseaters and people like >>12183051 and I'm not necessarily talking about vtubers here. This is the exact reason why I don't watch any kind of video game streaming with a chat.
If I want to watch someone playing a game for the first time, I want that person to get the full first time game experience. Getting lost or not knowing what to do is part of the experience, I don't care how long it's going to take. I don't even understand why people are bitching about time when it's a streaming format, we've got all the fucking time here. If she cannot finish the game right away who cares? That's even another free streaming to add in her content.

Then again like I said it's only for first time games. If I watch someone who is familiar, doing a new game plus or playing a game with huge replayability then expectations are going to be different. We can't call it backseating anymore because in that case it's just knowledge and strats sharing.

i can hazard a guess that if simps ask backseaters to give examples of timelooped streams they can give several (i can name a handful at the top of my head); and if the inverse was asked, if backseaters asked simps how many streams were ruined by backseating barely anything is referenced.

because of the comm. culture being so anti-backseating, her backseaters are whipped - and she still manages to snap at them. she should know better as a former twitch streamer, ALSO she doesn't even bother doing the chat embed like Ina does (something something let priestess play her way)

Yeah, mechanical backseating and backseating in something like minecraft is ultimately just spam. It's annoying but it's easy to deal with.
But stuff like they're in the middle of combat and grays suddenly start spamming the solution to a puzzle that's in the same room that's just ruining the experience for everyone else.

Sometimes i think they like to pretend to be bad at games for content's sake, i mean these are girls that have been playing games for years, how on earth could they seriously be so bad at them? they had to have learn to play just through repetition even if they did not care about making an active effort.

look at single-session playthroughs across the board, we aren't talking about sperging after 5, 10 mins of being 'stuck' in games neither are these games non-linear cyoa like detroit (where chat spergs for best stories) these are linear games with only a single action needed and these streamers (not just vtubers, but tolerated most to them) takes HOURS

Somehow all these streamers are just retards but (you) are so great you got every puzzle in 10 minutes or less.
