Best VR experience I have had, super easy to meet new friends who you can speak to and play games with for hours! EDIT: Making custom avatars is super fun, if you are able to deal with the price of major depression trying to get them to work this game is made for you <3

This was a blast. It's fun visiting all of the cool places with people. The only thing I would recommend for the devs is in the smooth locomotion mode to make it "hand based" orientation like Onward does it as opposed to "head based" turning. It makes me feel a bit off when I turn my head while moving forward and my direction changes. If dev is reading check out the difference in Arizona Sunshine's new locomotion update to see what I am talking about. I would also recommend slowing the forward locomotion down 20% or so.

This is the best application for virtual reality, hands down. I have been a member of VRchat for over two years, and the community is what makes this place so special. Each "room" in VRchat is a direct upload of a scene in Unity (software used to create most VR experiences). This makes it very easy for community members to upload new rooms and content. The developers of VRchat are also making the games they have (Capture the Flag, Battle Discs, etc) available in the SDK. This means over the next few months anyone can adapt these games and create new versions of them! VRchat is a great way to gain exposure to Unity/development...but you can also just have fun and talk to others here. Other social VR apps don't even compare in that feeling of community you get when you log in. Our meetups are on Sundays, but since its public release there have been people logged in continuously. Come join our community, and see for yourself what makes this such a special place!

I am having a VR setup since December and I have seen A LOT, that includes a ton of games, "experiences", demos. And also a bunch of social VR apps, incl. Altxxxxx, HiFi and some others. This one I have to say blows ALL these experiences out of the water - by miles! Let me see. Today, this Friday night...I have been in a giant show which was excellently done with anime dancers. I climbed about a mile up in the sky with some people and then we dropped down. I have been in some sort of anime/game forest. I have been in a bowling alley which appeared very real, complete with 50s music and disco light :) I have been in a bar with about 20 people and a bar tender busy running around and serving drinks. I have been in an abandoned prison with scary ghosts, traps and all kinds of stuff. We have played games like CTF and we've been in an old Western town where we were the Sherrifs and shot some bad Bandit dudes :) A lot of fun also with people showing off their insanely creative avatars. I took my headset off later on and realized that I "experienced" more things in one single night than a normal person could ever experience in "real life" in a night, uh..a week or a month even. This is just frickin' awesome beyond words. From a technical point of view, the avatars are excellent and VRchat even allows making and importing your own from Unity. Lip sync, eye tracking and all. Some of the best avatars I have ever seen. The entire system seems polished and runs smooth. VRChat must have hundreds of "worlds" including games etc. to choose from since you can browse them for an half an hour and still didn't see them all. This is crazy. Uh, that being said people can also design their own worlds and games and put them in there. Possibilites: Endless. MIND. BLOWN. And the people are ALL extremely friendly and supportive etc. This is VR as good as it can get with TONS of fun and infinite things to do. Seriously it's mind-blowingly good.

So far i like this social VR platform the best, it has a lot of mechanics that i would like to see incorporated into future VR games, especially any that have multiplayer (especially MMO's, i can wish right?). But seeing a guy be an undead from world of warcraft just makes me want a VR MMO so much more :P
