It would kind of make sense for people who just don't want to show their face even if they don't want to be particularly vtuber-y
I was wondering if this would be more common as the technology developed but it seems like it hasn't and instead there are specific ideas about what vtubers are supposed to be that have become entrenched.
There are some people like Hikalium who are using vtuber avatars for live programming videos but not particularly doing a character though
- snek_case 4y agoWith deep learning you'll eventually be able to just have a very realistic avatar that looks and sounds like a real person. Might eventually be hard to tell if people are using something like this or not.
- dahfizz 4y agoIt's perfectly normal to stream and not show your face at all. Preferring to present as an anime character will always be niche.
- Dalewyn 4y agoIs it? I feel there's a much bigger tendency for westerners to show their mug and speak while Japanese prefer to hide (both mug and voice) if at all possible.
- dahfizz 4y agoYeah, definitely. There's a self selection bias where a person who wants to stream is going to tend to be a person who wants to show their face. But it is not weird / frowned upon if there is no face and the content itself (gaming, coding, whatever) is the entire screen. I think most normies would much prefer no face to an anime character. I do think it would be weird to hide your voice, though.
- cbm-vic-20 4y agoFor once, I'd like to see a VTuber presented as classic Warner Brothers characters. Let's see Porky Pig present this stuff. (Anyway, the work itself is great!)
- NoGravitas 4y agoI would love to do a tech vtube as Slappy Squirrel.
- bitwize 4y agoMore likely it'll be a character like Dot. Or Bugs Bunny in a dress.
