>>106086312It was smooth for the most part, really positive because it coincided with the final patches of TWW2, it was how she got her first real sponsorship and enrolled in the CA creator program which was a big milestone for her. That naturally led into more Warhammer and 40k, she kind of pioneered Vtubers foray into Warhammer because she gained so much visibility from the BFG/Astartes/lore stream.
I know I tend to sound bleak but the reason is because it was also my first time discovering vtubers and I found the best one a month or two after exploring the space. Really it's because I have so many fond memories of that time that I have a hard time letting it go. Part of what invited it also I think was the model update, she knew none of the old Gumis would stand for it and we sperged out until she had to draw the line (I almost dropped her after that happened). That in turn caused this feedback loop of rewarding pickme behavior in her chat, I don't know if she realized it right away but this fundamentally broke the back and forth banter which was way more brutal. I still laugh every time I think about the time she permabanned a guy for saying her model looked nice instead of commenting on the stream content, identifying it as coomer behavior.
