what's the appeal of watching the actual streams? vtubers are absolutely horrible at video games. and I don't just mean gamer girl tier bad, they are all exclusively second-hand embarrassment tier bad, while playing on journalist difficulty no less. even fucking dsp does a better job and he is infamous for being shit at vidya.
also, why are people watching three hour talking streams where the only thing that happens is tens of thousands of simps just desperately vying for their attention?

What's the appeal of watching any streamer? Just because I watch PlagueOfGripes do an entire Dark Souls playthrough doesn't mean I'm simping for him does it? Some of them are just fucking fun to watch. For example, I enjoyed watching Suou Patra git gud at the Souls games. I just really like the Souls series and watching people play/discuss it.

This, why the fuck would I watch for games. Not everyone cares about them, /v/tard. I watch zatsudans because it's fun to listen to these girls talking about how their day went, things they enjoy etc. Thousands of simps vying for attention? Man, just don't read the chat if you're watching chuubas with horrible fanbases which I assume you are looking at your OP pic. Utawaku and 3D lives, because I like people singing/dancing or trying to get better at it, simple as. As for the games, I watch them if the girl is cute and her commentary is entertaining enough. It might as well be another zatsudan for me, I don't follow the gameplay at all.

If they're entertaining I like watching them play games regardless of how good they are at them. I think it's strange how many people there are here who talk about how much they don't give a fuck about the game when it's a very large portion of most vtubers streams.

You may be right. Though I've seen people spam that shit about how they hate video games for months. It's fine if you don't like games but it always feels like they're saying it as a way of defending their oshi for being horrible at them instead of just saying they enjoy watching her regardless.
Anyway I love video game streams they have consistently provided a lot of my favorite moments so I'm glad it's not the common sentiment. Plus a lot of vtubers genuinely enjoy playing.

Tell that to the paypigs.

I grew up playing videogames, but they aren't the main attraction in relation to chuuba streaming. Would I like it if Miko completed a playthrough of the Mount&Blade Warband single player? Yes. Would it be cool if chuubas started streaming fighting games? Yes, that'd be pretty sweet. But it's not the main attraction. The personalities are, how they interact with the game, with the audience, etc. And gaming isn't all they do.

If I want to game, I'll go game. If I want to watch chuubas, I'll keep my gaming itch separate. It's not that outlandish.

Well no shit you fucking retard, that's the case for 90% of streamers male or female. OP posted horrible bait and you're still here coping. It may be a crazy concept but some people really enjoy video game streams, it's the gateway to how many began watching vtubers.

Because i am a lonely antisocial officeworker who was sent to work from home when covid struck and i havent talked to a woman in a year

Covid killed my social life and now the idea of trying to go out, talk to girls, and have a life makes me sick with anxiety

Since i am going to die alone i might as well spend the rest of my feeble life listening to cute anime girls before i an-hero or heart disease kills my fat ass

I see you're on my level, OP. Once the novelty wears off, the vods actually serve no purpose. They're just there to draw in new viewers. The real attraction is watching, interacting and gaming with minor ecelebs in real time. Once the vods no longer entertain you, it's LIVE or bust.

VTubers (the good ones at least) are cute and have charming personalities. That's why I watch. In that sense they're the opposite of DSP. If you want to see pure skill, there are a lot of streamers you can get that from.

Also, asks the fucking guy posting Gura feet, I think you already know the answer to your own question.

The /v/edditor is immunized against all dangers. One may call him a zoomer, retard, shitposter, faggot, or shill, and it all runs of him like water off a raincoat. But call him /v/ and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: "I've been found out."
