>>37623216There's a market for girls who are good at games in the vtuber sphere. Female gamers are rare, and the target demographic for "gamer" content is usually males, so it works quite easily. You don't even have to be very good, just be good enough that you can play with viewers on stream and not get totally stomped like Pomu.
There's no market for male gamers though when you can just go on Twitch and see thousands of 2view males who are top 0.1% in their game of choice and still struggling to get viewers. Move them to the vtuber sphere and they're suddenly competing with men like Vox who just coom bait all day, and the "male vtuber" audience has been conditioned to want that coom bait, shipping, romantic fanservice, etc and not people who play games. Women don't want "male gamers" and as much as anons insist they want a "brotuber" they aren't going to watch a male vtuber playing Apex the way they'd watch Selen. They certainly don't watch Aster or Sonny.
I just think it's totally retarded that they're trying to push for a all-male GAMERS wave and not realizing "Hey maybe the audience for males is different and we should cater to what they like. Why don't we hire more males that do ASMR and boyfriend experience or have artistic talents like drawing or music?"
