>>48958966Ame has been very inconsistent and low energy for at least a year now. The gremlin behavior is gone and it's just monotone "Okay, I'm playing a game now." feeling to her. Likewise, she's dropped down to streaming essentially 2-4 streams a week tops.
Essentially, she's a soulless shell of what she used to be as a streamer and it shows.
Ame aside, no EN is not okay. Realistically, the only actual streamers that have anymore is Fauna and Kiara. Kiara is just horrible though, so that leaves Fauna basically to carry the entire branch.
- Gura streams once or twice then takes 2 weeks off. That's been her "new normal" for a year at this point. She barely managed 11k the other day, which is absolutely horrible for her as she used to consistently bring in 20k - 24k easily.
- Kronii has essentially gone missing or just turned into a collab gamer. Of the 11 streams she did in the last month, 4 of them were collabs.
- Ame, Mumei, & Irys are essentially just toiling in the mid, doing nothing of substance and just streaming occasionally.
- Bae and Kiara continue to stream a lot but they're just not able to grab crowds because they're not that good as streamers.
- Ina is pulling in the 2nd best numbers in EN and that's close to 10k per stream, but she also doesn't stream that often. 3 relatively short streams a week if that.
- Mori is trying to be a better streamer, but she likewise struggles to grab an audience because she's made a lot of people angry and her games of choice are mediocre at best.
- That essentially leaves Fauna to carry the entire EN branch as one of the most CCVed of the branch who also streams the most.
All that aside, the Stars are having an even worse time of it.
- Flayon and Shinri struggle to pull in even 500 views.
- The only Stars that consistently break the 1k mark are Bettel, Magni, and Vesper with Vesper being the only one that usually is close to or higher than 2k views.
EN as a whole I think is not something that Cover should keep working with unless they really, really make their contracts more robust. An absolute minimum requirement of streaming days / hours a week should be in place. 4 streams a week with a minimum of 15 hours a week streaming should be the absolute minimum. Anyone who can't do that much deserves to be fired. Cover, as THE biggest name in the industry, should be one we know we can turn to to expect quality and consistency.
