After a lot of thought and growth, I’ve decided to officially rebrand and move forward with a new identity. It’s time to step into something that truly feels like 𝘮𝘦.
Here’s what will be changing:
-ˋˏ✄ ──────────── ˎˊ˗
🪦 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗻 𝗚𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗼𝗻 → 𝗚𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲 (𝗚𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗹𝗲)
┊× New Design Reveal
┊× Updated Branding
┊× Updated Usernames
┊× New PNG/Model Planned for the Future
┊× Shift in Content Focus!
┊I’ll still play horror games and discuss media for fun,
┊but my main focus will now be art, character design, and ┊technical work.
╰───────────── ꒷꒦
Thank you to everyone who’s supported me as Thorn for all these years. I’m excited to create as Ghoulle, and I hope you’ll stay with me through this next chapter. 🖤

Nah. Firstly, not qualified in any way (but thanks for thinking about me) mainly but there is one important reason I could never lead (or help lead) Twitch...
What I would do is not popular. What I would do, people wouldn't like. What I would do would lose money. What I would do is change the system fundamentally. What I do to Twitch would most likely not work.
What does that mean? It means if it were up to me, Twitch would become about video games again. No IRL, No politics, nothing that isn't directly related to gaming culture in some way.
What Twitch was before it started to woo Amazon (with the introduction of IRL, relaxing the broadcast rules, especially around sexual content, etc).
So what I'm saying it, what I would do is not only unfeasible, it's unrealistic to do what I'd want. It's not something I would do. IRL was a Pandoras Box... you can't turn it off. You can't disable it. Hell, at this point I'd argue a huge portion of the platform doesn't even play or care about video games. And that's a one way process. That isn't something you "fix". It's not something me (or anyone) could go in and bring back. And also, to put it bluntly, at this point there are so many IRL/Non-game viewers that it wouldn't be right to turn it off. Twitch isn't about video games anymore. Sure, it has them, but they are no longer the star of the show. They're just another cast member.
Now what's all this mean? It means I (or anyone) shouldn't want to change that. IRL is here to stay on Twitch and it's not going anywhere.
So when people say things like this, my response?
"I'd much rather someone with resources steps up to make the Twitch of old. A streaming site FOR gamers, BY gamers. Bring in a team of experienced industry leaders that made streaming what it is (@djWHEAT, @Fwiz, etc) and make a board of leaders that understands that the focus is casters, games and viewers. THAT'S IT. Keep overhead as low as possible in the company to keep all the splits as high as possible. Rebuild paradise in a new format."
That's the future I'd like to see. IRL and all non-game content having a consistent home that doesn't go anywhere (the current Twitch) and the core gamers of Twitch having a chance to return to that magical place we used to live in. A place where everyone we see and chat with shares our passion. A place for GAMERS.
Would this be financial feasible? I think so. A streamlined company would allow for higher sub splits, encouraging casters. I feel many game casters would also flock to the site as it could be built with all the same features of Twitch but more gaming-angled widgets. On top of that, the lack of IRl/Non-gaming means a beefy enforcement team would make the platform FAAAAR more attractive to advertisers (assuming the numbers would be anywhere close lol) in terms of content and, especially in gamedev cases, making sure the audience that sees your advertisement actually wants your products). Basically, yeah, it would need some love but I absolutely think a new platform would be viable. Over time.
Hell, Bezos could fund this himself and just make it a sister site to Twitch. 🤣
But yeah, nothing in this tweet is new. I feel like a lot of us have felt this way over the years. We kinda feel like we lost our home. And we want to go home.

I'd like to announce @nowayismaria as the winner! Maru, your designs and art are stunning 🥹🤍 I'll reach out to you in DMs for the prize!

I really struggled to figure out the ones I really liked (as I liked SO many), but I -think- I've narrowed it down to 4... It was mostly to do with the colour palette (more muted), and blending cool motifs together! l to r: @nowayismaria, @buran444, @nemikyu, @deargardenia_

SHE'S EVOLVINGGGGG (will post updates here from now on)

gonna try and tackle colouring her hair tonight, wish me luck 🫠 also got my apple pencil engraved!
English

@fieleth hii so for me i airbrush the ends of the hair with a slightly darker colour of the original hair and then do some hard shading with a colour darker than the airbrushed colour (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
English

@fieleth I recommend @/liteio01 for reference!! Their hair rendering is very good for study and they've practically changed how I see hair as a whole
English

@ThorntheGorgon Thorn that’s so sweet of you 😭!! I may very well take you up on that offer, thank you so much xx
English

@nowayismaria @buran444 @nemikyu @deargardenia_ I still need some time to figure out who the winner is, and I'll probably be submitting 2nd and 3rd place (at least a 2nd place one)!
I loved every single entry and can't thank you enough for participating! If you'd like specific feedback on your designs please let me know! 🤍

@PandawaVT You have me blocked on my main and I have no reason why 🤣 (this popped up on my feed on here!)
English

If I have you blocked and we’ve never interacted and you’re just like a normal person:
let me know!!! I used to go super crazy with the block button when I first started using twitter (I didn’t know the mute button existed) and I’ve been trying to get through my blocks but its at such a high number it’s really hard… the site starts breaking after you unblock so many at the same time augh…
(If youre a vtuber who’s blocked do not hmu though, thank you)
