>>24900047Gen 0 through 2 had nothing. They were risk takers who were willing to work hard to succeed.
By gen 3, Cover was able to attract people with established talent in streaming. But success is still not guaranteed so they also put in a lot of effort.
By gen 5, they're already a massive success, but they're now in a company with 30 senpais competing for the same sets of eyeballs.
Myth on the other hand is similar to the first generation in terms of risk-taking, but the moment they blew up, hard work stops mattering. There's very few other places EOPs can go.
IRyS actually flopped, so she's working super hard to make up for the lackluster model.
Then Council comes along and was also a massive success at first, which killed any motivation to try harder. Bae was the only exception because she was starting to fall behind and cared enough to keep trying, whereas Sana has another job and doesn't need this streaming career to succeed.
I think we'll see HoloEN start working harder once Gen 3 drops, or if NijiEN starts overtaking them, which is kind of happening now.
