Whoa, this thread has the most comments I've ever seen on Lemmy, I think.

Yeah it sucks. Meta shit all over the term. And then every other company jumped on board claiming their stuff is a metaverse too. Even Microsoft claimed Teams was a metaverse.

This is because they include stuff like Roblox in the definition of Metaverse. I personally hate that.

If we kept it to SocialVR titles, the demographics would shift to something more balanced, afaik. VRC bans people under 13 when they are discovered/reported.

Thats the thing. Adults talk shit about it. But it’s mostly the younger generations that are active in VR.

You have your demographics backwards.

lol what? I’ve been using VRChat for almost 10 years and I’ve seen maybe 4-5 people with avatars that smoke.

I’ve never touched Roblox tho… I’m a bit offended that it’s considered a Metaverse.

 

VRC Light Volumes is an optimized nextgen voxel based light probes replacement and analytic lighting solution for VRChat.

Version 2 contains tons of optimizations and new features. If you use an avatar that is compatible, be sure to update your shaders to use new v2 compatible versions!

That title is a bit misleading. Unfortunate.

The whole avatar is sold. Not what it’s wearing. But I guess you could call the whole body fashion too.

Direct link to the announcement.

VRChat is an option. Takes effort to make your way to the cool people tho.
