I've become what I feared most, a virtual youtuber (aka. "vtuber"). In this quarantine since I've been playing a lot more Brood War and even though I've been pretty healthy with daily exercise and a proper diet (finally) I haven't really been grooming myself.

Quick context: I used to spend ~10hours a week on planes as I work on esports shows and travelling from show to show would kill any freetime hence I've played a close-to-zero amount of starcraft for... a couple years now.

With a couple of anime fighter buddies that have also taken up BW since fighting game netcode is garbage, I spent about a week making and rigging an avatar and finding sick tech for the best (and easiest) IRL to avatar tracking. Something about this whole endeavour feels weird because of the fact that I don't know how far this anime persona rabbit hole will go, but it's been fun so far. It's been fun tinkering around in Unity, been learning a lot!

Just reusing my old twitch channel since it's still me (for now), but I did make a new YouTube channel since my old ones are pretty defunct now. I generally do zany builds because that means even when I lose I'm not tilted, hope some of you can find some enjoyment out of it. Been a while since I've made content, hah!

Enjoy~

are you a member of FBW? it's the premium discord for foreign brood war players.

discord.com

your avatar is cute. we have a lot of boys who represent themselves as japanese women. i'm 2100 random myself and there are some real gosus there, although we lost TT1 recently.

Was not previously as I've mainly just stuck to TL and Twitter, joined in now! Also, thanks My wrists are not-so-good because of not taking care of them when I hit C- years ago, trying to work my way back up the ladder while I've still got time on my hands!

What's the point of grooming yourself if what you represent yourself with is that cute!?

A travesty to have those shorts without a thigh gap. Am I degenerate enough yet?

I think it was just the angle I took the picture at ended up not drawing the 'lil outline for the legs. normally there's a bit of a gap between the thighs. 3D Software still no good sometimes

I think the real question is: Why not go through the extra trouble and make your voice sound like a girl?

Not particularly interested in creating a whole new persona, the vocal dissonance has been enjoyable for some though I can understand why some people are confused or turned off by it. I could make my voice sound like a girl but then I'd also want to try to converse and act like a girl while on stream too and I don't want to go that far

Anime girls are generally easier on the eyes, so that's why I picked it. Literally only reason haha
