?

>> No.1521787

>>1521758
don't know but I hate those people. there are more than enough 3D tubers you can use as an imaginary substitute gf if that's what you're into.

Vtubers should be for 2D chads who have no interest in 3D whatsoever.

worst of all are the breeders who actually want to make more 3D with the actors behind the Vtubers.

I can unironically say that I don't. I find GFE distasteful (although I respect the hustle of the vtubers who do it masterfully), regularly watch some male vtubers, and would like to see the medium grow as a vehicle for performances rather than remain as a medium for streaming video games. Unfortunately, I realize I am basically alone in this sentiment.

85% and that's lowballing it. The whole industry is built on lonely men who wants some sort of validation for their romantic desires. We are almost 30% of men being tfwngf so i don't see this market getting smaller any time soon, this is good for vtubers.

The GFE can be nice, but the minority of streams exude that and I don't think it's the mainstay of romantically frustrated guys when you have so much more active pandering by Twitch streamers and ASMRtists, and porn.
To me, it just makes me incredibly happy to think those girls have accomplished some things in life they set out to do and found some nice workmates/friends along the way. I'd like to believe it's not the sexual frustration (I have a SO but don't want to sleep with her 360 days of the year) that keeps me here, it's the desire to have a reason to do my reps and take care of myself. Also helps that I can talk about my chuubas to who I would call friends at this point. I don't mean (You) on this tibetian throat singing, though you can be nice people too.

Nearly 100%. This is especially the case with Snuffy now that her viewership base has tripled in the last month, nearly all being simps who shower her with money that go on and on in endless donations how much they love her. Can't blame her for striking while the iron is hot though.

In my experience, those three things are so fake since the pandering is so strong. Chuubas seem much more authentic (I know they are also fake and taking advantage of GFE simps to make money).

Exude or exclude? Im gonna assume exclude. Vtuber are anime which already has the built in self insert romcom audience. Asmr quickly turned into another way for men to replicate closeness to a woman. The simple act of constantly listening to a woman talk about her day over and over again, will create a sort of bond, add in added romantic frustration, and you don't need the GFE experience for the viewer to feel the GFE sentiments. The girl/vtuber in the video could be talking about doing laundry and it would still produce an emotional response from the audience.

>To me, it just makes me incredibly happy to think those girls have accomplished some things in life they set out to do and found some nice workmates/friends along the way.
That's already a kind of emotional bond, you are describing.

>I'd like to believe it's not the sexual frustration (I have a SO but don't want to sleep with her 360 days of the year) that keeps me here, it's the desire to have a reason to do my reps and take care of myself.
You are creating emotional closeness withh women outside your relationship, just letting you know.

Porn is not active pandering, it's just sexual. The allure of vtubers and asmr girls falls much more on the emotional side. GFE porn exist but vast majority of porn is very cold.

Vtubers are the first step to replacing women with AI GFs.
Soon femoids will experience what 30% of men are experiencing now when we finally manage to make them obsolete and cause even chads to abandon them. Then once they come crawling back to use and beg us to fuck them, we'll look straight in their eyes and whisper: "no".

There's a longing for emotional connection for sure.
In my case I cannot tell if it's romantic in nature or not since I'm on the spectrum, but I've been watching male streamers exclusively since 2016 because I'm a friendless retard irl and what I feel when I watch vtubers isn't much different.

I think there are more and less authentic people in all of these things (less so with porn and I honestly barely watched any female streamers so I wouldn't know). You have some authentic ASMRtists who do what is effectively a zatsudan with no roleplaying where they talk about their own life, talking about the rough patches in their life.
>>1526746
I meant exude as in "the minority of streams/content are built on causing you to feel GFE". Especially no vidya, at least not for me. Maybe that's a bit subjective, it may work as you describe for many other people.
>you don't need the GFE experience for the viewer to feel the GFE sentiments
That admittedly makes sense to me. But I am hesitant to believe that romantic feelings are necessary for this. People certainly feel connected to male streamers too; just talk to someone who followed reckful until his suicide. It's a bonding experience yes, but I think it; s more like friends, or maybe crushes.
>>1528207
I have a relationship with someone that is based on something else than sex. I fail to see how this is a bad thing. You can ask anyone in a relationship that lasted longer than 3 years, the honeymoon phase is important but it's not what keeps a relationship alive.

*rough patches and good times, just really sharing their own life stories I suppose.
>>1526777
Generally yes. but I also think that some people derive emotional fulfillment or a sense of bonding from amateur porn, and less so camgirls, and on a more related point, I think Melody really capitalized on this niche in porn by sharing some personal stuff and coming off as into it for her own enjoyment as well.

You remember that old manga page that got posted on /a/ alot (I can't for the life of me find it right now) about how you're fine most of the time being by yourself but sometimes the loneliness rushes in suddenly like a wave? Vtubers stop that for me even though I have no delusion or desire for GFE. Just having someone talk to me about their life is enough.

Having a preference for 2D women is such a retarded statement. Obviously 2D is hotter when they’re created by man to be the sexiest object something could possibly be. I’m sure everyone has a preference to look at the sexiest possible object.
