>>45228321No, it was created because /v/ was 50% shitposts and 50% generals that most users never left. This pissed off catalog users who felt like it was impossible to discuss video games that aren't popular enough to sustain a general.
So moot made /vg/ to quarantine generals like /lolg/ that were always dominating the front page of the catalog. Then he made a bunch of sub boards for more obscure game genres so people can discuss games beyond the most popular ones. /v/ is still a shithole to this day, but at least I can talk about games in /vrpg/.
>>45228396The shitting on NijiEN only ramped up when Tempiss debuted. They're just directing their resentment towards m*les in their own company at us, because they blame NijiEN for making male vtubers popular in the first place. It's incredibly childish but that's 4chan for you.
