can i be the one to say it? i'm gonna say it. vtuber artists, modellers, riggers, etc, if your stuff was cheaper, you'd make more money. Here's an example: let's say there's an art at about $140. and let's say about 1000 people could afford that comfortably. that's like 140k. Now i know, there's the cost of labor, but hear me out. if that same item was like $90, that opens up more market availability. so now 1000 people turns into like let's say 1800. So 90 x 1800, that's 162k. Now let's go further, let's say an art is like $50. a LOT of people can afford 50, so let's triple 1800 to 5,400. 5400 x 50 is 270k. yes there would be more work, BUT, there's more reward! And if the quality of the item is still really high, a lot of people are gonna want that thing, which is more people, which in turn is more money. And if people are happy, the customer base increases, which again, is more people, which again, IS MORE MONEY. Not that i expect any change on pricings of things, i just wanted to throw that out there.

nono, Jocat is right and should be allowed to say this idol culture is /very/ toxic and i personally also hate it you form a better connection with your community by being allowed to be a real person, rather than an idol vtubing is what you want to make of it
