So, uh, I bought a thing.

I don’t have any particular single skill, but I’m an experienced gamer, good writer, tech nerd, and an eclectic autodidact who can talk about almost anything — and loves to.

Decided to stop messing around and try. Watch for something in mid-April.

Wow, the difference a half-decent mic makes over a gaming headset is stunning.

Going to be spending even more time than usual in this spot now!

I'm going to write a bit about the prep in this thread, but it'll be the last out-of-character writing on this account, and I'll nuke it post-debut.

3D avatar finalized, and I commissioned some art. I'm exploring software now, especially voice processing.

I think I'm happy with my voice software at this point. I'm not significantly processing my voice, most of what I've been playing with is compression and noise suppression. Working on some simple screen art for OBS. It's not much, but it'll be copyright-free!

Starting to think maybe I should just kill this twitter account and start fresh.

Okay, looking back through my followers, there really aren't many that are active from my pre-hololive days. If you know me IRL and you're following me, this account is going to be REALLY different in a week or so, but the same dude is running it.

Getting close. Going to nuke this thread on Sunday. I’ve spent a lot of time working on character traits and backstory now, to the point I’m feeling myself start to slip in, like when you start to click with your D&D character.
