>>25112418Most vtubers, even the ones considered particularly creative and productive, have been sort of going with the flow for the longest time. Showing up as scheduled, playing the scheduled game, filling up dead air and getting the occasional clippable quip or a funny moment etc. but not really pushing to make a show of it. Just spending the time. It's what always ends up happening with streamers.
Salome's brand new, and her content plays out like a packed collection of choice moments. It's very dense and fresh. Older vtubers look at her and basically go, "oh, that's the energy I used to have and then lost". No doubt even Salome is going to mellow down eventually, but right now she's making the most of her time in the spotlight AND inspiring others to try harder again. Everyone's winning right now.
