I like watching smaller Vtubers (mostly from here and /wasp/) and once in a while I'd ask myself "could I?" like I assume plenty of other people do.
I'd like to THINK I could, but doesn't everyone who hasn't been proven wrong the hard way?
I like to think of myself as clever, funny and maybe even charismatic under the right light, but who doesn't?
So I'm debating trying to dip my toes into streaming, like one or two streams to see if I enjoy doing it and what notes and rejects the people idle enough to watch it might have.
And then if I like it and people say "well, at least it's not hopeless" I could think about doing it regularly-ish as a hobby.
Obviously I'd like to invest as little as possible into it before deciding if I even want to keep going with it.
So here's the actual question; how little investment can I get away with and still call what I did Vtubing?
I want to be in a position where I can say
>What I did today is representative of what streaming as a Vtuber is, and my conclusion is that I like it / hate it / think it's worthwhile / I'm deeply ashamed of myself.
I don't want to be in a position where people could say
>Oh come on, what you did doesn't count, you didn't do X/Y/Z, you need to try harder and actually do certain things.
Does anything I've written until now make any sense or am I demented?
I would also appreciate stories from active streamers about their first stream(s), what they did, what their setup was like and when they realized they want to invest more into it. (not necessarily in terms of money)
