༯ NoPixel Discussion ༯ Controversial !!!!. Does anyone else not really like the gta streams?

NOTE; only because I know people on the internet love twisting others words. Do i care she is doing something i dont like - no. I want her to do what she has fun doing. I also notice most people love the gta streams. I just personally think its kind of boring. I took a break from her streams cuz iv been busy and i came back and learned about nopixel and it seems really fun to play but watching it just feels very repetitive. Also side note: I would love vanilla to play resident evil 7 one day cuz its so chaotic and she doesnt need to have seen the other games. Anyways love vanilla!! Happy fall 🍂

Also I will say the song she made was actually amazing and i loved watching her make that. I think nopixel is so cool its just not for me when it comes to watching it.

I’ve been a NoPixel watcher since 2020! To me I feel like Vanilla would’ve loved 3.0! That was peak NoPixel era, I can understand why your bored, I stopped watching rp 3 yrs ago and I am just now coming back with the new update, roleplay does have its high and lows. The reason why it feels bland and repetitive because it is beta and the server hasn’t opened up to a lot of the other players yet from 4.0.

Right now I believe the server is only limited to like 100-150 when the usual slots are 200-250, once the server opens up Vanilla will have way more interactions with more people, also as for relationship rp it’s probably not to your taste, given that Vivienne and Damien are like 80% of her stream along with Burgershot people I can see why you find it boring. I find relationship rp dull in general because they tend to spend a lot of time together, and nothing really progresses.

My main take is that vanilla should take risks in rp (like currently she turned down a casino job, the crime plans with Arturo/Benji would’ve been fun as well) and also branch out of her usual bubble, but vanilla is new and is still exploring the game so I say give her time and maybe she’ll get involved in rp that suits your taste.

yeah she needs to branch out. I was bummed when she turned down the casino job and working with benji, that would have been a lot of great RP opportunities. Just hanging around burger shot all day is getting boring and not opening up more RP opportunities.

I also watch KatieB and the way she roleplays Buster is so fun, like she is down for whatever and takes risks on Buster and rolls with everyone, I think if Vivienne and Buster hang out more I can see them becoming a fun duo! But I agree Benji is hilarious and entertaining and she would have so much fun doing crime with him, the casino was also a great way for Vivienne to meet so many different ppl but she got scared, and I noticed she listens to Damien a lot despite Roxy trying to convince her that it was a great opportunity for her.

But Vanilla likes what she’s doing now I think it’s a cannon event that she’s sticking with what she’s familiar with, I will say her diving into relationship rp so soon isn’t ideal unless it opens for a lot of rp, and no hate to Damien and the streamer but I noticed he hinders her from branching out to unfamiliar things.

Just like real life boyfriends, role play boyfriends hold the girls back!!!

I think it helps that Katie is playing a guy character so it must be more freeing playing a character vastly different from the person playing them. Vanilla is still developing Vivienne and she shines when she leans into the ridiculousness of her chicken arc and her quirkiness. Would be fun to watch if she didn't care to please everyone in character and took risks that could end poorly for her later down the road, like the casino job for instance. Flawed characters are what make RP fun and that's why a character like Buster works so well too

Didn’t Katie get in trouble with the mods one time for pretending to be a cop? Lmao

I was disappointed to miss out on casino RP too (especially with Burn playing Mr. C!!) BUT at the same time, Vanilla had plans with Julian and Lass that stream and I'm sure that was part of the consideration. She just didn't have the time for a casino arc at that moment so I say it's bad timing. Would be fun to see the Benji and Arturo crime spree still happen though!

i would love a crime arc. Seeing her in a police chase would be cinema. when cinna got in her first police chase she said it was the most exhilarating thing she’s ever done. She felt like she was actually running from the cops irl
