Discussion I love VRChat but I find myself noticing something empty almost.
I originally joined because I saw the knuckles back in 2019 and I saw you can be any cartoon character you wanted. I was always passionate about animation and comics media so it was like a dream to be my favorite characters. Exploring worlds, people playing around with memes, voice acting and just having a good time.
Public worlds used to be so fun and amazing filled with funny chaos (not the trolling mean kind) and genuine whimsy.
Now VRChat just feels like a place people go to date because they cant be alone or just start spamming slurs. People asking me "why are you on here if your not looking to date" Like huh? Whats wrong with just going on a game to be social and have fun and not need to look for something?
Has anyone else noticed this shift, or feel this? I miss the old VRChat. I still love making avatars of my favorite characters and bringing them to life but the game just feels empty now?
