I'm gonna vent a little to let out the menhera so I can be more positive for them
I'll be honest bros this stream left me conflicted. Of course chatting with FUWAMOCO is always nice and they were super open today, maybe more open than they ever have been before which I really appreciated. But I just dont know what to think about the future
It's not that I want them to give up on homework and idol stuff, I love idol stuff too, but I also love their game streams and the little unique stuff they used to do last fall and Winter. I miss their on going playthroughs. I want to see them play stuff like MGS3 or hell even just finish a game that's stuck on the backburner. I understand their sentiments of wanting to cram in little short streams with what little time they have, but why does it have to be like this? I don't like the 2 hour maximum slop streams anywhere CLOSE to watching a quality game they enjoy. But then thinking this way also hurts them and makes them feel sad so what am I supposed to do?
And even Mane-chan is telling them maybe they should say no and they still choose to push through even through FWMC are on the verge of burning up and barely eat
And it isn't even just the games even though that's what a lot of people are focusing on. Remember when they did community focused streams like the halloween and christmas stories ones? Or remember their Rawr n responses on twitter? It just feels like everything including their own health has fallen to the wayside for this nebulous """homework""'. FUWAMOCO want me to be excited but how can I be excited when all this homework takes away from the stuff that made me love them in the first place?
And then there's the constantly over the top shilling themselves which they mentioned today that some ruffians don't like that. And yeah I find it off putting too but I at least recognize that's more a me issue than anything. But still it's just another aspect making me more conflicted. That the only way for them to be happy is be obnoxiously shouting about themselves at everything that moves. It reminds me of how they initially said they didn't want to do vertical shorts streams because they think it makes the content worse and then they went full throttle right after that just for the sake of numbers. Big numbers and constant shilling isn't why I came to Hololive and it just reminds me of the crass business side of Cover that I despise with a passion
I just don't know how to feel. It's like the current state isn't what I want and isn't what drew me to them, and they KNOW and acknowledge this too but they just hope I'll be excited anyway cause they'll be sad otherwise. Which just makes me feel guilty and isn't fun either. Then they say if you aren't having fun with something you should drop it but I don't want to drop them...
Anyway thanks for coming to my TEDTalk. I think this is a lot but think of the bright side, now I got my menhera out and you won't have to deal with it later.
