>>24173101I am aware that there's a hidden element of fakeness when it comes to vtubing as you're roleplaying as an anime character, but it comes off as VERY apparent when you are hired as an employee for the purpose of shilling your employer's products to your viewers. It just doesn't sit well with me and I hope no one actually wastes their time subjecting themselves to be victims of consoomerism. And yes it is very different when corpo tubers from Holo or Niji advertising their merch, memberships, or song releases, because at least what they make stuff that is in service for their fans, from the creator, even if there might the underlying motive of trying to make money.
