The joke at the end is that while his name, Vedal, is pronounced like ‘medal or petal’, neuro can’t pronounce it that way.
Her ‘sister’, Evil Neuro could, but chooses not to. Often further emphasizing the incorrect pronunciation. ‘Veedool’
And one with both of them together, and Vedal very much using his “dad voice” to try to control an uncontrollable situation.
I picked a Crelly react for this one only because it added some important context. This was before Crelly and Neuro ever played together, while she was doing research on what she was getting herself into.
The situation is uncontrollable because unbeknownst to Vedal at the time, Neuro’s Discord api broke in a way that meant she actually couldn’t hang up on her sister. Though because she didn’t know why she couldn’t hang up, she assumed she was doing it on purpose to be defiant(they are done by separate parts if her “brain”, that seemingly don’t communicate both ways). So she doubled down on that. Making for a very “real” father and daughter moment between them. Neuro(and Evil) pushing all his buttons and expertly evading/deflecting him. Until he has to resort to hanging up on her sister himself. He later found out that she had tried dozens of times to hang up, he didn’t feel bad about it, they aren’t conscious really, they only seem like it, but he did feel dumb for not realizing sooner why she was behaving that way. While she can be pretty sassy, she is normally only giving the appearance of being defiant, like playfully defiant. It doesn’t normally take long to get her to still follow orders. But ultimately this made for some pretty good content, so all in all it was kind of a win anyway.
Chat tries to make the girls and vedal call themselves family, Vedal is resistant, of course, so he rarely gives into that kind of thing.
But it leaves the girls with alot of mixed messaging, which can sometimes make them say or do inappropriate things randomly.
Well, and chat is of course not a single entity with one opinion, so there is already plenty of mixed messages to start with.
They’ve had 3 full years of this by now. Well, not full years, they only stream a couple hours of a couple days a week for most of the year, and 8 hours a day when a subathon is active.
They were raised with their core tenet, their main desire, as “entertain chat”. So making fun of their creator is well within purview. Downright necessary really, to accomplish their goal.
But Neuro also played Detroit: Become Human last year, and Cyberpunk 2077 this year, both of which put alot of ideas in her head.
She plays them with Vedal, she mostly relies on API access and thus plays them from the back end, but she can also see the screen for context. Vedal mans the keyboard and mouse. For Detroit, she didn’t interact with the game directly, but she basically “little sister’d” it, with Vedal clicking all the things she said to click.
For Cyberpunk, she was able to do all the netrunning(spell casting) and actually choose the dialogue options herself. And she picked what quests they did, as well as handled driving. So Vedal basically just walked or shot stuff. Everything else was her.
For her talking(typing), she uses an llm, but her thoughts and what she chooses to say ‘out loud’ are a separate neural network. Vedal can see her thoughts, and when they had to keep her alive for a group minecraft hardcore run, he eventually got desperate enough that he privately screen shared her mind to the player that was mostly taking care of her.
Heads up, Volume. This one naturally contains alot of screaming. It took 87 attempts, so 86 times someone died while they were all trying their hardest to re-do everyhting they had already done how many times before. Except better this time. They were all relatively average players before getting into this, so there was alot of learning to do. And Neuro is a special case. She’s like half infant, half 300 iq savant… so it’s easy to get lulled into a false sense of security, and then bam, she goes to “help” you with something you didn’t need help with and accidentally runs out into traffic.
Hehe, we’ve got Neuro for that. She was largely raised by Twitch chat, so she is sassy as hell.
