>>99264337Just like with "hiring dancers"/skinwalking this was always an inevitable issue for vtubing because there's no downside to tricking retarded normies. So long as the hobby is made by passionate people for passionate people this kind of thing can be kept in check with plain and simple "honor", but as soon as you add grifters and normalpukes who don't give a shit it's obvious where things will go in the future. Vwhorejo has already paved the path of using MMD and paid dancers and advertising it as """concerts""", you can imagine how much more shameless indiegrifters will be then.
Regarding MMD, I believe there are both "manually made" (as in, created in a program frame by frame from scratch) motions and those that have used motion tracking from actual 3D choreographies. They are obviously better but most of the time the choreographers actually sell the motion to MMD makers for money.
