the absolute state of modern vtubing
degenerate thottery, self face doxing & irlfagging, rude vtubers who condescendingly moralize viewers & self insert into drama, a bloodsports addicted community who doesnt watch streams and is just looking for this weeks gay highschool drama and permissible target for harassment based on the imagination of schizophrenics (or on the rare occasion they actually build up an immune response against whoredom). its taken a lot of the joy and magic out of it
@smugumin I've very much always been a live and let-live guy in the vtubing world. Like... I watched Saruei when she was a fleshstreaming artist. There used to be this Japanese porn site 100 years ago that was basically Chaturbate png tubing with live girls and tokens and the whole nine. This was super long time ago. Stickam type days. Not to mention the old Ear Fetish Japanese CDs/DLSite packs that were ASMR before someone gave it a goofy name.

That is to say, I don't really get the prude side of things. Plenty of girls went from ASMR RP or outright porno content to vtubing. If some portion of the community doesn't match your mood, fine, but apply that logic to the girls who are upholding that portion of the industry. If Powdur or some wholesome GFE streamer is talking about her wild time at a con, sure. De-oshi. But like... these are indies and small corps. They're not selling that product.

And as an oldfag who has been to many cons, Offkai, from the outside, looks a hell of a lot like old anime cons. Loose panels, people having fun. A proper niche. If people want buttoned down immersion horseshit, they should go watch Holo or someone trying to be an idol corp.

I'm there for the show. It's content. But that also explains why vtwitter has been awash in Offkai drama for a few days, everyone needs to get their clip or their RTs or whatever. Rev says desu probably masturbating nonstop over all this.

@snappler @WandererUber @smugumin There was a famous Parisian(?) prostitute who ran the same game by maintaining a stable of admirers, each paying a regular subscription that was much, much lower than her standard encounter fee, and encouraged to send her gifts. In return, these aspirants were vaguely praised as her truest "loves" whose admiration was purer. Accordingly, from time to distant time, one was randomly picked for a free night with her.

So in the original version, yeah – she might have picked you.
