Are all the characters from HoloLive or are they from other agencies/independents?

[Zahnrad]

Hi. I'm kinda newbish when it comes to the whole vtubing scene as I only really watch one vtuber currently. Tried checking the store page but it didn't help me either.

I know Vtubing agencies are a thing and assume what's what the majority of the characters are from, but are all characters from HoloLive or are there any from outside that agency in the game?

If the game only includes HoloLive talents, is there any known plans by the creators to include vtubers from outside of HoloLive? Such as independents?

I doubt a steam discussion is going to stir much but I'm curious if there's any potential for someone like Neuro Sama to be one day be added.

this is a hololive fan game, so why would it contain non hololive vtuber? it's like going to pizza huts to order a big mac..

[Zahnrad]

I was asking if it was a hololive game...but thanks for the jaded response I guess.

well, the game is called holocure.... i would understand your confusion if the game have some generic name like idol showdown or something, but the game is called holocure, with hololive branding all over.... but now you knows... maybe someone will make a generic vtuber version.

Can't ask questions here without that one know all bro acting like you can't just wonder about things and what's to come

No, there won't be any non Hololive productions vtuber playable in the game.

And it is a Hololive fangame, yes. Every single character is a Hololive affiliated vtuber and most of the game aspect is directly based on things that are related to Hololive productions or their fandom.

To add to the actually useful answer, hololive is specifically the female idols branch, consisting of the original Japanese branch, the English branch, and the Indonesian branch. There WAS a Chinese branch as well, but it's been dissolved and most of the 6 Chinese hololivers were around for less than a year.
There is also the male branch called holostars, with both Japanese and English sub-branches, and AFAIK Kay Yu mentioned that holostars will also be in the game at some point.

Even if they want to they can't. The devs need to follow Hololive's policy to make fan games. Just like game where Nijisanji vs Hololive would never exist unless both parties agree to it.
Sure you can make whatever game you want but Hololive will not let their talents stream it.

That's interesting. I had presumed that the male talents would have been excluded. But it's nice to hear that both will come some day.

The game is called HOLOcure and the first sentence on the store page is "Play as your favorite Vtubers from Hololive!" which means you didn't even go to the store page. So yeah, understandably people are frustrated at this kind of thread that now clutters the forum for no reason.

Iirc he said he "wants" to include them at some point, not that they difinitely will be in the game. But I do assume that they will be in eventually, yeah. My guess is that he will go by debut order (giving EN a kind of priority) now, so it will be Gen 3,4,5,6 JP, Tempus, Stars JP, Advent, Whatever comes after Advent, probably ID4 if he wants to continue the game for that long.

There is a former talent in this game that used to be in Hololive, there are also references, fans, & items of former members, who are now with other agencies/independents. Expecting them to show up eventually, when their generation debut time come, just like they do in the other popular Hololive fan game on Steam.

A certain EN was quite a huge independent drunk singing vtuber before EN.

There are also a few former JP members who probably will never be in this game, since there are so little material to go on for them before their short & sudden departure. Also CN, don't know could go either way.

For example, Neuro sama (interviewed by an EN & liked by another) or a certain T are unlikely to be in this game, unless in the quite unlikely event, they become Hololive members.

(A certain T is Friend? with a few JP. A number of JP knows or got interviewed by her/him/her. A few JP have friends before Vtube now working for her/him/her. It is all a bit complicated. T as a dudette playing a dude disguised as another dudette.)

[Kriss Hietala]

It's all in the store page. this is a hololive game with hololive characters.

[Annie T. Mood]

If there's any non-holo that could get in here it'd probably be Ui.

[liubx2010]

No this is just a hololive fan game

[D YellowMadness]

There are some other Vtubers I'd like to see in it but the sheer amount of Hololive characters to eventually be added makes guests really unlikely, I imagine.

And that kind of thing totally stopped Smash from having guest characters, right? Same for Mega Man X Dive, right? And Mario Maker? And the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm games? And Mario Kart? And Clay Fighter? And Mario Hoops?
