this game really embodies the internet in a lot of ways. sometimes you'll find fursona avatars with big bazoingas, sometimes you'll find 10 year olds running around yelling slurs, and sometimes you'll find some of the chillest people ever. the worlds almost feel like you're inside websites and personal blogs from the 2000s, some dingy and unpolished, others charming and cozy. if aliens ever land on earth and want to know what internet culture is like, i'll hand them a VR headset and pray they don't wipe us out for what they witnessed. never change, VRchat. never change
I didn't really spend too much time with VRChat, but what time I did spend was something truly unique. A one-of-a-kind experience and social community that Meta seems intent to copy and corporate-ify to no success to make their "metaverse". It is amazing that this exists. If I didn't have a life IRL, I'd probably love to engage more with the community that exists here, but alas.
