America Joined a War and VidCon Was Hell
2025/6/24
American Fever Dream
V Sphere：今年VidCon被Informa收购后，体验大不如前。往年有7万尖叫的粉丝和众多创作者，气氛热烈。但今年观众以儿童为主，活动组织混乱，缺乏娱乐元素。酒店条件差，没有冰咖啡等基本设施，表明管理层不了解VidCon的受众需求。尽管我参加的小组讨论组织得很好，但面对以儿童为主的观众，效果并不理想。霍克图阿的成人内容表演与儿童观众格格不入，引发争议。VidCon After Dark的表演者们在缺乏支持的情况下表现出色，令人感动。Meta举办的迪士尼创作者之夜虽然提供了高级餐饮，但实际上是Meta AI的推销会。总的来说，这次VidCon的体验令人失望，反映了私募股权公司接管后对活动本质的误解。
V Sphere：我感觉今年的VidCon在很多方面都变了味。以前的VidCon充满活力，创作者和粉丝互动频繁，赞助商也积极参与。但今年，Informa的介入使得活动更像一个普通的动漫展，缺乏了VidCon原有的特色和氛围。观众的年龄结构也发生了变化，导致很多原本为青少年和成年人设计的活动变得不合适。此外，酒店和餐饮等方面的不足也影响了创作者的体验。我希望VidCon的未来能够回归初心，重新关注创作者和粉丝的需求。
