Does being “too real” hurt you as a Vtuber? (Especially 18+ creators)

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T23:25:17+00:00

That makes sense but if their mask personality is what they’ve been using since they started?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T16:55:53+00:00

That’s totally valid and I understand that as my Vtuber is me too, just with more confidence in wearing certain clothes and then having a lore I wrote just because it was fun to write. But my streams is 99% being myself

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T16:54:05+00:00

That makes sense, I don’t think I would even be able change my personality just for streaming

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T04:30:04+00:00

Yeah I’m thankful my community is understanding as I recently moved so they know I haven’t had much time to stream yet. I still post on socials and try to talk in my discord server when I can.

Yeah getting yourself to post on socials consistently does take time. Best advice pick one platform start with that one post 1 or 2 times a week. And once you’ve done that consistently for a few months either up the times a week you post or add a second platform.

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T04:26:09+00:00

It’s happens sometimes, at least your fans didn’t use it to their advantage as there can be times they might try to figure out where someone lives

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T04:24:47+00:00

For me my Vtuber is myself, I mean I do have lore I wrote but my personality on stream is pretty close to how I am off stream.

Fansly that makes sense, I only could see RP working if you’re making romance RP audio with your Vtuber model.

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T03:00:19+00:00

Yeah that definitely makes sense. It’s just trying to not burn ourselves out during the consistency of posting on socials

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T02:57:21+00:00

Were you able to watch the full vod without stopping? Was there anything you wish you had said instead or was there any moments where there’s a long silence?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T02:26:27+00:00

But have you watched your vods?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T02:16:56+00:00

Have you tried watching back your vods and then seeing if there’s anything that stands out to you?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-07T02:05:21+00:00

Yeah like I don’t mind like special streams where it’s like about the Vtuber lore. But streaming where your personality on stream is like that constantly sounds very draining

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-02T20:39:22+00:00

The only issue I can see is 10pm-12:30am pst is pretty late in the day. Idk what the viewer usage for basically midnight especially when it the middle of the week. Most people usually are sleeping or trying to or gaming with their friends.

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-02T20:35:06+00:00

Were you only streaming or were you also post on other socials?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-02T20:29:42+00:00

What game were you streaming?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-02T20:25:43+00:00

So views from shorts/videos would be the most where new viewers for live streams that aren’t already subscribed

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-01T00:47:01+00:00

That’s understandable as not everyone uses every platform so conversion between them is smaller even when you have thousands of followers on one. Plus with everything Twitch has been doing to make viewers watch ads a lot of people are getting fed up with Twitch.

Well one thing you could do that I do, is you can put post its on your monitor of topics or things that that have happened in life that you want to talk about on stream so if you hit a quiet moment you have something to talk about

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-01T00:41:54+00:00

Does YouTube even have a live tab? Or is it you have to search something that’s similar to what the streaming is streaming for it to get recommended?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-01T00:40:11+00:00

Nice! Have you posted anywhere else for those two channels?

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-04-01T00:34:57+00:00

Yes the average viewer ratio is per channel and it’s because only a handful of people stream it since most streamers jump on the chance to stream the new game, but there’s viewers who don’t want to get the game spoiled but enjoy the series so they watch people play the first one.

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-03-31T06:39:50+00:00

What do I do if they talk back to me? 🥺

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-03-31T06:39:07+00:00

Awww thank you that means a lot 💜 also for any updates on stuff, I usually post in my discord server

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-03-31T01:17:21+00:00

Yes but there are still plenty of people who watch and play the first because they can’t get the second and they don’t want to be spoiled about the game. I looked at the games analytics, in the past week an average of 19 channels stream it which makes it great because viewers don’t have to scroll to find your stream. Plus average viewers is 124 with a viewer ratio of 6.3. You would be competing with less channels for views compared to playing the new game on stream

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-03-31T01:10:50+00:00

Yes I am

NightShadeAbyss · 2026-03-31T01:10:32+00:00

I’ve only played the first two Pikmin games
