On October 19th 2020, we put a guy in VRchat for 1 week to see what would happen. Hosted by: / gtfotis / gtfotis / gtfotis Soundtrack Playlist: • 1 Week in VRchat Sound...
I spent 7 hours in this game yesterday, and leaving the game actually had such a heavy impact on my mind. Felt like waking from an incredibly lucid fever dream
I bought VR sets for my boyfriend and I to spend time together when we couldn’t be there in person. We love exploring VRChat together, playing games, talking to random people. It’s been a great addition to our relationship. Great video!!
@zayemania same for me but sadly he isn't that type of guy who will do something with you a lot. Yk once we played a lot, then he left our main game and now he's stuck at valorant and no other games Kinda sad about because we're far away (even though it we're together then every thing is fine
yea the majority in vrchat is pretty friendly and fun to hang out with...there are some assholes here and there buts its rare since they get kicked out pretty fast
Its because there is no fear of physical attack. People arent afraid of being assaulted, and they know if they are being bullied or bothered they can leave. Irl has muggers and bullies who physically overpower you.
@@bradsully6620 Friends on this game are real yo, thats kinda fucked up to say. I meet my friends from this game irl and we give each other gifts and stuff, one of them even bought out my entire steam wishlist, it was like over $300 best gift a friend could ever give.
its honestly insane how we already have a perfect utopia where you can see and do everything you’ve ever wanted and no one even talks about it.. VRchat is honestly insane..
The goodbyes at the end made me feel a sense of sadness almost. I could only imagine what it was like standing in front of those friends that you made throughout your journey at the end there. The same people that you spent night and day with. The people that would wish you goodnight, and the same people that woke you up and said good morning. They were your family for the week. The goodbyes at the end felt like a send-off. "Hey, we know that your journey here is ending, but there are new beginnings beyond this reality! We really enjoyed spending the past week with you, and we wish you the best of luck beyond these worlds.", is what I imagined them saying. Ofc you probably still talk to them, but the clip made me feel sentimental. Thank you for creating this masterpiece Disrupt, you have earned yourself a well-earned subscription.

Loved the edit Otis!! Thank you for doing squats with me! I still keep up my routine and now have to wear weighted vests when i do SQUATS EVERY DAY BRO!!
I'm honestly kind of dissapointed a lot of the really cool things you did weren't in it though... possibly due to copyright issues. I liked your tour of the Psych boat so much that I've been trying to recreate something like it in my own recording (for copyright reasons) ever since, because that is a REALLY good segment to share with others to show how cool VR can be. Your full-body tracking has also amazed me.
Pika because you were the person guiding Otis around vr chat do you know of any worlds with a virtual alarm clock I’ve been sleeping in by more often but also need an alarm to wake up
I watched this video when it came out, before I played VRChat. Now I come back and realize you talked to 4 who is now one of my good friends I talk to almost every day. Crazy how stuff like that happens.
@@gameboyplays506 that sounds kinda cool but also no..i hope i die before that happens lol but also it seems like something thats gonna happen in like..thousands of years
i remember no lifing this game in the first lockdown when i couldn't see my irl friends one of them did it with me, i remember finding probably thousands of people to talk to, playing minigames until like 4 am (i played from 9pm to like 11am the next day) I remember going to those music festivals they were always at 5am for me but they were so fun to meet new people when we couldn't go outside. I'm gonna say it, it was a experience that I miss all the time. This game is truly a masterpiece.
I'll tell you this. You feel disconnected for a while. I've spent 3 days straight in vrchat. The disconnect lasts for weeks after. I only use quest, but it still can effect you.
@@user-lk2qf4rt3m Well, you can get addicted to anything you find somehow beneficial to you, even tho you know it's not really beneficial in terms of health or anything else, you still have that one reason why you keep doing it. Cigarettes wouldn't need any bad chemicals inside to get people addicted, people can get addicted to the feeling of doing something (like smoking) when they have their hands empty and don't know what to do, as long as it somehow pleases them. Weed is said to not be addictive in terms of what it contains, but you won't have to look too far to find someone deeply addicted to it, even tho it can mess with your way of thinking. So it is definitely possible to be an addiction. The worst thing is, all we can do for addicted people is be there for them, sometimes even let the reality hit them, because convincing these people to quit whatever their addicted to is almost impossible, especially if they're willing to sacrifice so much for that addiction. I hope your friend ends up doing what's best for her and her close friends and family. As Kayden said tho, reality will probably hit her pretty soon, if by giving up her job you mean cutting off her only income. If she has some kind of passive income and is able to satisfy her physical and psychological needs - as in keeping herself healthy in any way - I'd say it's not too much of a problem. If however her mental or physical health is getting worse, maybe a heart to heart with a group of some of her loved ones could open her eyes a little bit. If not, I wish you and her the best of luck.
@@annona718 Holy shit I have a quest 2 and this is so true. I only spend 3 hours at a time cuz battery and I dont have a power bank yet but then I go recharge, play again, recharge if I dont have school from like 3 pm (when I wake up) to like 5 am or some shit. I did that a few days in a row and after a while I felt completely disconnected. The real world felt like VR and VR felt like the real world... Shits crazy. I was only playing mainly gorn, pavlov and onward though...
@@SnowMexicann Yeah, first time I bought my Index and played Half Life Alyx start to finish with sleep and food between. I remember trying to turn around using the fucking thumbsticks even though i wasn't holding anything (probably cuz you don't need to hold the Index controllers). It was kinda crazy.
The last goodbyes at the end felt like a good funeral. Tragic but feels so, bright and sunny. Like a sunrise, a sunset is beautiful, but when you think about it, it's a reminder that time is moving and that not everything will stay the same as it is. One day the sun will swell up and burn its last minutes and seconds. It's kind of ironic to think that the reason something is beautiful is because it doesn't last forever. Like a sunrise will always have a sunset. Both are a marvel of this world, that's why we should savor and experience it while it's still here, because there will be a time when people won't see those anymore.
@Ben Cameron your eyes do change focus in VR, stereoscopic vision changes your perception of depth and may force you to focus with different depths at times
The weirdest part of this is recognizing people and environments from this video. I know (or have met) a lot of the people in this video in VRChat and I've spent countless hours in some of those places. I keep seeing these places as something like a home of sorts. the closest thing to it is like noticing a movie was shot in your hometown. it's really interesting that my brain stores these virtual environments and people just the same as real-world people and places.
There was this experiment in the 80's where someone stayed in a cave for a month, no knowledge of what time or date. they experienced some of the same symptoms u did.
This video is a perfect representation of how VRChat really can be. It can be chaotic or really chill. It has tons of toxic people but also tons of chill people. It can be a very physically active game or a supper chilllax game. It's whatever you want it to be. You just have to look in the right places.
This is very cool, but also very dangerous. Hearing what you said about your sleep cycle at the end had me concerned. There's cause for worry to be sure.
I understand why you have over a million subscribers, your editing, music.... everything is mesmerising. That must take an absolute age to edit. It was almost a meditation in itself. Thankyou.
"the graphics aren't better in the real world". I feel bad for you man, but everyone has their own lens I guess. I love VR Chat, but man, nothing beats nature.
crazy how addicting this game can be. I usually always go into this game by myself but when you genuinely meet people it’s the most fun you will have, and it’s very easy to become addicted.
I've basically been doing this since the pandemic started!! Not quite to the same extreme, but vrc has been my main form of socialization through all of quarantine. And it's been fukkn lit! If any of u nerds bump into an E-Money420 up in any of the live dj events, call a shot with me for the memes!! XD
I've been doing basically the same as well. Ever since I got my Quest 2 in October, I have been in VR doing something every single day. Not necessarily VRChat, but most of the time has been in VRChat.
@@sean__1 I used to mainly play Quest standalone, which was actually pretty decent imo. I mostly play on PC now, and honestly, aside from the most laggy of worlds (among us), the biggest difference is how things look and not the framerate.
i recently lost one of my best friends to VR chat. like for real, we used to game and chill everyday in an mmo for like a year or stream movies and just chill, have been friends since like grade 6 and he got a VR headset, guit every other game, lies about what hes doing, never replies, acts like every other thing in the world isnt as good as VR and has fully just ghosted the rest of the planet for his VR set. also he pretends to be a girl when he is online by using voice changers and an anime girl player model. PAIN lvl 2021
Maybe they're comfortable playing in VR because they don't like appearing as a guy in real life. Kind of sounds like they want to transition maybe. You should talk about it together man. And get VR Chat, be there for your childhood friend, if you are as close as you say you are. :)
U know whats trippy? We can actually quantify irl framerate. It alters depending on adrenaline but it can be quantified. We percieve in neurological bursts, just like computers percieve in electrical bursts.
@@iwanttodie911 yo just commit to it just create another account in the bank if you gotta, and put $5 every check into it if you have to xD im dooone waitin to just get all the money for it, lol im savin'~ cuz vrchat is my dreammmm! i hope to see you there someday
this honestly makes me wanna be on vrchat more and talk to more people, i've usually stuck to only my friends, but i'm definitely gonna try and be more social on VR. great video though!
I literally just got VR chat yesterday! I saw a video on CZcams that was super sweet and wholesome about people learning sign language and all other things and everyone seemed so nice so I thought I’d give it a go and I can honestly say it was a really cool experience.
I might have never talked to Otis but I feel like he is a great man,an adventurer with a great journey. an amazing video to end my last day of connectivity with the virtual world, as I stay alone for the rest of this half year. Thanks for every second of entertainment and socializing you gave me Disrupt (the community and everyone associated), but goodbye for now. Saad
Yeah I went a full week constantly getting in vr for longer and longer periods an the headache and dizziness went away an now I can stay on as long as I want
@@sicsiddd ikr, and it like stops blood flow to my brain and i faint and i dont wake up for like 2 hours and when i wake up its still on my head making my brain not get any blood ):
Yo, I played on the Sly Fest lineup and just came across this video! Great video showing how VR can be a way for social interaction. VRChat definitely changed my life and actually gave me a huge creative push with my music and my sets. Love the content!
This sounded like it was a lot of fun, I'm happy to see you enjoyed your time doing this. VRChat's truly an amazing program once you get the ball rolling on stuff you wanna do in it.
I once did the same thing, I spent a week in VRchat and it was SO FUN. I met people, I had fun, I laughed a lot, it really changed my humor, my social anxiety is better now. It was just awesome and I would probably do it again.
the staying up for 1-2 days straight and then sleeping for 7/8 hrs is really interesting. I don't remember the exact event but a study was done where someone basically lived in an underground apartment for a certain period of time with no clocks or actual way to determine the time. Her sleep schedule gradually changed until she was awake for 36+ hrs at a given time and sleeping for 7-9, while being completely healthy and normal.
This is incredibly intriguing in a frightening way. Feels like human beings are headed down the wrong path, but the curiosity and desire to see where this might go is undeniable. I honestly hope this doesn’t go much further, but I know it will. The singularity is upon us.
Vr has come a long way, it’s honestly insane. You can literally do anything on vr chat and immerse yourself into a zombie apocalyptic world in TWD: saints and sinners. I’m getting the oculus quest 2 for Christmas, can’t wait to join this community and explore the matrix! 😁😊
this was the first one of your streams I really participated in and it was super fun! hands down the most fun I've had on a stream! It's still insane how you manage to do this stuff!
theres one thing that makes vr not the same for socializing. its a bit weird but it makes sense. thats being self conscious. if you think about it worrying about how you look or if your hair is ugly is a huge part to socializing. sounds stupid but its true when you think about it. but in vr you dont have to worry about anyone judging you. which leaves out a pretty big part of socializing. still, this video was amazing
It's fun, but it's also addicting. I have a friend who got 4-5k hours in one year, and I met one guy who got 250 in 2 weeks. For some people it *is* their life now, especially the folks who didn't have one otherwise. I don't know how to feel about all that, although I personally have over 1000 hours myself and find it extremely difficult to log off whenever I do hop on. The whole thing is just so jarring, even moreso recently as I finally have a VR headset.
oh it's my friend *4* 1:17, cool guy though living in VRChat is easy I do that all the time, got 3286 hours try living in VRChat inside *OOGA BOOGA 2.0* now that's a real challenge I bet you would get insane if you stayed there for 7 days :D
Oh my, I'm starting to see you everywhere now ahah Even in vrchat, once on the Black Cat you were playing music with some friends and then interacted with us It made me laugh, good character and videos
This is close to my normal day, I wake up to go to work get home and start VRChat..after a lot of hours I get off to make myself dinner and do some chores, and well after all this I go to sleep and have the same routine once again. I don't think it is too healthy but it is good for my mental health since I am literally scared to talk to people and only with hard effort can and through VRChat I can talk to people without having a really hard time and in some cases, I don't even need to talk much, it is just an experience I would like for others with problems like social anxiety or other things like this to have. Though I really do need to say sometimes I need a break for VR for like a week and after I play for months again. Btw I really love the edits and in general, the video was awesome! Keep on doing so!!
Ive done it before and it’s honestly fun since i enjoy vrchat and especially during this time i loose track of time playing games and socializing on the internet you meet the most amazing, randomest, funniest people here totally worth it id recommend it to anyone.
First time I played VR I sat in bed that night looking at my hands like there was something off about them. It's a weird thing when you introduce your brain to the concept of a non-existent body like that.
"I have the quest with passthrough" I can confirm the quest passthrough is fucking sick. I love setting up the airlink to my pc if I wanna play steamvr or oculus rift games in my room then I head downstairs so I can play with more space and I always leave my headset on as I walk downstairs. The only issues I have is that if there isn't enough light the screen goes completely dark and it is pretty annoying but overall its fine.
I would say that VR is actually a very very good way to socialize with people, because sometimes in real life it's harder. But also VR can help people who are frustrated, who don't like this life, and thinking about suicide. Just imagine the people who bored of this life, can do anything in VR... and a VRChat is an option. You can do whatever you want, having fun with people or just chilling in different worlds. The one issue is the cost of VR headset, not all can afford it but still, it's a good way to kill depression
Its a game with nothing in it. Just empty rooms where people go to socialize in virtual reality. All games and cool skins are created and codes by the community its pretty cool.
Back when Vr chat first blew up, before the knuckles, and other stupid stuff kinda killed it for a bit, I often heard it called ready player retard. It’s more of a social hub.
@@rjscherer2073 it's not just empty rooms. There are plenty of games including Among Us or Cards Against Humanity for example. There are parties with live Djs or musicians, classes that teach you another language or dancing. So many things you can do in VRChat.
Well , it’s the bare minimum of ready player one . Maybe in a couple years it will be more like it but it needs licensing , a lot of graphical and mechanical updates , and a lot of third party devices to sponsor it such as haptic feedback suits and better hardware
Very interesting experiment ! For me i had a VR headset and VRChat since 2+ years, but never started it. Been through shit recently and VRC helped so much, never thought I'd climb the hill so fast. Now i go on it everyday and i think i really want to include it in my future life. Those social interactions, the way you can keep your brain stimulated, the hundreds of worlds you can chill in and discover new people from everywhere in the globe. All those worlds helping to socialize, makes you see that there are a lot of amazing people in this world. So to everyone contributing to that amazing community : i hope you have a fantastic day, keep being yourself you are awesome !
Nice video! Just be careful in the future that if your eyes ever start hurting you take some time to rest your eyes a little. Having your eyes be that close to a screen can irritate them a lot. I may be biased though since I have really light sensitive eyes but I think that's important to note to anyone that wants to try something like this challenge themselves.
I'm beginning to think spending an extended period time in vr is part of the initiation to work for disrupt and I accept
Been there, done that.
Same I would totally do a week in recroom
I spent 7 hours in this game yesterday, and leaving the game actually had such a heavy impact on my mind. Felt like waking from an incredibly lucid fever dream
@@Whoisthistho Right? Waking up in the game is a whole other level of mindfuckery

haha nah fr people in vr chat are mad cool, you get trolls an shit but 80% of the people are super cool and just tryna have a good time
I can relate
Its because there is no fear of physical attack. People arent afraid of being assaulted, and they know if they are being bullied or bothered they can leave. Irl has muggers and bullies who physically overpower you.

Because VR is 3D you don't mess up your eyes nearly as bad as flat screen since you actually have to focus at different distances
@Sharkie I mean eye strain from being focused at the same distance for long periods of time.
No screens do it's just the blue light that it produces
@Ben Cameron your eyes do change focus in VR, stereoscopic vision changes your perception of depth and may force you to focus with different depths at times
@Ben Cameron dude, people who need glasses outside of VR also need them inside VR. Focusing works exactly the same.

I keep seeing these places as something like a home of sorts. the closest thing to it is like noticing a movie was shot in your hometown.
it's really interesting that my brain stores these virtual environments and people just the same as real-world people and places.
There was this experiment in the 80's where someone stayed in a cave for a month, no knowledge of what time or date. they experienced some of the same symptoms u did.
Dude......
that was literally his last video tho wasn't it?
This video is a perfect representation of how VRChat really can be.
It can be chaotic or really chill. It has tons of toxic people but also tons of chill people.
It can be a very physically active game or a supper chilllax game.
It's whatever you want it to be. You just have to look in the right places.

Love these videos, this channel has a very unique and fascinating editing style that gives it a "documentary" vibe. Keep up the work, love to see it.
tbh vrchat needs more wholesome content like this
I never know what to do in vrchat. I can’t believe you were able to do it for a week
This is very cool, but also very dangerous.
Hearing what you said about your sleep cycle at the end had me concerned.
There's cause for worry to be sure.

I understand why you have over a million subscribers, your editing, music.... everything is mesmerising. That must take an absolute age to edit. It was almost a meditation in itself. Thankyou.
"the graphics aren't better in the real world". I feel bad for you man, but everyone has their own lens I guess.
I love VR Chat, but man, nothing beats nature.
You are correct. I love our planets bro

If nature didn’t have insects that bite I would be all in .
crazy how addicting this game can be. I usually always go into this game by myself but when you genuinely meet people it’s the most fun you will have, and it’s very easy to become addicted.
I've basically been doing this since the pandemic started!! Not quite to the same extreme, but vrc has been my main form of socialization through all of quarantine. And it's been fukkn lit! If any of u nerds bump into an E-Money420 up in any of the live dj events, call a shot with me for the memes!! XD
I've been doing basically the same as well. Ever since I got my Quest 2 in October, I have been in VR doing something every single day. Not necessarily VRChat, but most of the time has been in VRChat.
@@adicsbtw u play native in quest with 5 fps or on pc?
@@sean__1 I used to mainly play Quest standalone, which was actually pretty decent imo. I mostly play on PC now, and honestly, aside from the most laggy of worlds (among us), the biggest difference is how things look and not the framerate.
Ayo I have you friended on vrc, strange to see on youtube lmao- CherryFrost
@@cherryfrost896 Ayyyyyye poggers!!!! xD I didn't expect to actually bump into one of u nerds in the comments!! Chill vibes to ya homie!!!
"oh really? Welcome." is the best response to "this is my first time Interecting with people on her"
i recently lost one of my best friends to VR chat. like for real, we used to game and chill everyday in an mmo for like a year or stream movies and just chill, have been friends since like grade 6 and he got a VR headset, guit every other game, lies about what hes doing, never replies, acts like every other thing in the world isnt as good as VR and has fully just ghosted the rest of the planet for his VR set. also he pretends to be a girl when he is online by using voice changers and an anime girl player model.
PAIN lvl 2021
Hang out with him in VR then lol.
If you can't beat em'
join em'
just go hang out with him in vr
Maybe they're comfortable playing in VR because they don't like appearing as a guy in real life. Kind of sounds like they want to transition maybe. You should talk about it together man. And get VR Chat, be there for your childhood friend, if you are as close as you say you are. :)

Broski's eye strength dropped astronomically after this.
*waves real hand in front of face* "What fps is this?".
made me laugh.
U know whats trippy? We can actually quantify irl framerate. It alters depending on adrenaline but it can be quantified. We percieve in neurological bursts, just like computers percieve in electrical bursts.
Honestly god tier editing
Weebs: this is my dream made true
Yes, I really want to try it, but VR is too expensive for me.
@@iwanttodie911 yo just commit to it just create another account in the bank if you gotta, and put $5 every check into it if you have to xD im dooone waitin to just get all the money for it, lol im savin'~ cuz vrchat is my dreammmm! i hope to see you there someday

this honestly makes me wanna be on vrchat more and talk to more people, i've usually stuck to only my friends, but i'm definitely gonna try and be more social on VR. great video though!
Can we all appreciate the fact that he put the names of the worlds at the bottom!
I literally just got VR chat yesterday! I saw a video on CZcams that was super sweet and wholesome about people learning sign language and all other things and everyone seemed so nice so I thought I’d give it a go and I can honestly say it was a really cool experience.
certain predators target that community, just be weary
I watched the livestream. Can't believe this was in october, that's insane..
I might have never talked to Otis but I feel like he is a great man,an adventurer with a great journey. an amazing video to end my last day of connectivity with the virtual world, as I stay alone for the rest of this half year. Thanks for every second of entertainment and socializing you gave me Disrupt (the community and everyone associated), but goodbye for now. Saad
Was that dunkey at the start saying about windows 95?
Yes
Yea
Yeah
the one and the only
Wow, this is so cool. The concept, the execution, the editing. All brilliant.
I spend 3 hours in vr and get a 48 hour migraine. This would actually kill me
Yeah I went a full week constantly getting in vr for longer and longer periods an the headache and dizziness went away an now I can stay on as long as I want
@@sammiethompson1672 I would stay longer but the quest elite strap rubber hurts the back of my head. I think adding some foam or smthg might help
@@sicsiddd ikr, and it like stops blood flow to my brain and i faint and i dont wake up for like 2 hours and when i wake up its still on my head making my brain not get any blood ):
Yo, I played on the Sly Fest lineup and just came across this video! Great video showing how VR can be a way for social interaction. VRChat definitely changed my life and actually gave me a huge creative push with my music and my sets. Love the content!
This sounded like it was a lot of fun, I'm happy to see you enjoyed your time doing this. VRChat's truly an amazing program once you get the ball rolling on stuff you wanna do in it.
I once did the same thing, I spent a week in VRchat and it was SO FUN. I met people, I had fun, I laughed a lot, it really changed my humor, my social anxiety is better now. It was just awesome and I would probably do it again.
the staying up for 1-2 days straight and then sleeping for 7/8 hrs is really interesting. I don't remember the exact event but a study was done where someone basically lived in an underground apartment for a certain period of time with no clocks or actual way to determine the time. Her sleep schedule gradually changed until she was awake for 36+ hrs at a given time and sleeping for 7-9, while being completely healthy and normal.
The video Disrupt uploaded before this is about her, it was pretty interesting
This is incredibly intriguing in a frightening way. Feels like human beings are headed down the wrong path, but the curiosity and desire to see where this might go is undeniable. I honestly hope this doesn’t go much further, but I know it will. The singularity is upon us.
Hey do you remember when science fiction novels warned about this in the 60s and science fiction films worned about this in the 90s?
Killer content! Anyways EA contacted me they want to test me to see how many adds can fill my peripherals before I have a seizure.
Ready player one reference?
Wasn’t it 80 percent?
Vr has come a long way, it’s honestly insane. You can literally do anything on vr chat and immerse yourself into a zombie apocalyptic world in TWD: saints and sinners. I’m getting the oculus quest 2 for Christmas, can’t wait to join this community and explore the matrix! 😁😊
next one: one month: one after that one: one year
I'm REARING
One after that: *f o r e v e r*
couldn't stop smiling this whole video!! it was lovely being there during the live stream🥺💕 cant wait to see more of your content in the future otis
Inb4 “I spent a whole year in vr.”
the cheer in the end is kinda make me wanna cry. Those nice and wholesome people...
7 days condensed into a 14 min video. Worth it.
8years went by, didn’t sub to the channel but always end up to a video from this channel.
this was the first one of your streams I really participated in and it was super fun! hands down the most fun I've had on a stream! It's still insane how you manage to do this stuff!
theres one thing that makes vr not the same for socializing. its a bit weird but it makes sense. thats being self conscious. if you think about it worrying about how you look or if your hair is ugly is a huge part to socializing. sounds stupid but its true when you think about it. but in vr you dont have to worry about anyone judging you. which leaves out a pretty big part of socializing. still, this video was amazing
this premiered in the middle of a boring class, thank you!
It's fun, but it's also addicting. I have a friend who got 4-5k hours in one year, and I met one guy who got 250 in 2 weeks. For some people it *is* their life now, especially the folks who didn't have one otherwise. I don't know how to feel about all that, although I personally have over 1000 hours myself and find it extremely difficult to log off whenever I do hop on. The whole thing is just so jarring, even moreso recently as I finally have a VR headset.
also fml 1000 hours and still a "known user" just cuz I haven't published public avatars/worlds lol
Ayee careful man lol that looks cool and kinda painful
Ikr
Id imagine it is quite painful
also lmaoo, my irl name is yours but male version. without ‘la’, what a coincidence
@@NinTheLost painful and tiring for the eye tbh
@@NinTheLost i see its quite popular name tbh llol its also unisex, so a lot of boys and girls have our name🤣
oh it's my friend *4* 1:17, cool guy
though living in VRChat is easy I do that all the time, got 3286 hours
try living in VRChat inside *OOGA BOOGA 2.0* now that's a real challenge
I bet you would get insane if you stayed there for 7 days :D
Oh my, I'm starting to see you everywhere now ahah
Even in vrchat, once on the Black Cat you were playing music with some friends and then interacted with us
It made me laugh, good character and videos
@@nicolascassie haha yeah I'm everywhere :D
@@TheZiver True true ahah
Bro you are literally being a gamer for a week. It’s our daily routine
No playing one game for 7 days nonstop is degenerate level. Not gamer.
@@suave605 true, it’s far from healthy
@@suave605 lol well most gamers are degenerates like me right? I mean still it isnt like a science experiment...
This is close to my normal day, I wake up to go to work get home and start VRChat..after a lot of hours I get off to make myself dinner and do some chores, and well after all this I go to sleep and have the same routine once again. I don't think it is too healthy but it is good for my mental health since I am literally scared to talk to people and only with hard effort can and through VRChat I can talk to people without having a really hard time and in some cases, I don't even need to talk much, it is just an experience I would like for others with problems like social anxiety or other things like this to have. Though I really do need to say sometimes I need a break for VR for like a week and after I play for months again.
Btw I really love the edits and in general, the video was awesome! Keep on doing so!!
What a great study, would love to see this become an actual scientific experiment
Yep
6:10 that voice and avatar fit together like PEEEERRFEECT.
How'd you get through the 7 days without the client crashing?
The client did crash at least once, IIRC. I believe he just restarted it immediately.
nice dorothy pfp bro
@Nospacito yeah lol epic
Yo Sir respect to you! 2006 account damn! :D
FargoneMyth woww
Thank you for making actual quality content and delivering with a premise like this :)
how bad was your headache though?
My eyes hurt after only 5 hours In VR.
@@user-yc5fr8zu1m ofc they do
Ive done it before and it’s honestly fun since i enjoy vrchat and especially during this time i loose track of time playing games and socializing on the internet you meet the most amazing, randomest, funniest people here totally worth it id recommend it to anyone.
First time I played VR I sat in bed that night looking at my hands like there was something off about them. It's a weird thing when you introduce your brain to the concept of a non-existent body like that.
VRchat has changed video games for me. In a time of extreme lockdowns and social distancing, it allowed me to socialize in a healthy way.
Hey mom! I'm on TV!!
In VR chat you can be sure most everyone wants to interact. It's a good way to build conversational confidence.
it was a pleasure meeting you on your first day
"I have the quest with passthrough" I can confirm the quest passthrough is fucking sick. I love setting up the airlink to my pc if I wanna play steamvr or oculus rift games in my room then I head downstairs so I can play with more space and I always leave my headset on as I walk downstairs. The only issues I have is that if there isn't enough light the screen goes completely dark and it is pretty annoying but overall its fine.
the way everyone gathered to say goodbye was heartwarming
I would say that VR is actually a very very good way to socialize with people, because sometimes in real life it's harder. But also VR can help people who are frustrated, who don't like this life, and thinking about suicide. Just imagine the people who bored of this life, can do anything in VR... and a VRChat is an option. You can do whatever you want, having fun with people or just chilling in different worlds. The one issue is the cost of VR headset, not all can afford it but still, it's a good way to kill depression
So VR Chat is like Ready Player One were it’s all a game?
Its a game with nothing in it. Just empty rooms where people go to socialize in virtual reality. All games and cool skins are created and codes by the community its pretty cool.
Back when Vr chat first blew up, before the knuckles, and other stupid stuff kinda killed it for a bit, I often heard it called ready player retard. It’s more of a social hub.
@@rjscherer2073 it's not just empty rooms. There are plenty of games including Among Us or Cards Against Humanity for example. There are parties with live Djs or musicians, classes that teach you another language or dancing. So many things you can do in VRChat.
@@rjscherer2073 I just reread your comment and realised I misread :-:
Well , it’s the bare minimum of ready player one . Maybe in a couple years it will be more like it but it needs licensing , a lot of graphical and mechanical updates , and a lot of third party devices to sponsor it such as haptic feedback suits and better hardware
Honestly this is quite beautiful. At the end when they were all cheering and saying goodbye I felt a connection or some type of bond.
That one friend who is online 24/7: "Pathetic"
I feel like this was way better to watch streamed but damn great work regardless
This is the opposite of when Michael from vsauce spent 3 days in isolation
Very interesting experiment !
For me i had a VR headset and VRChat since 2+ years, but never started it.
Been through shit recently and VRC helped so much, never thought I'd climb the hill so fast. Now i go on it everyday and i think i really want to include it in my future life.
Those social interactions, the way you can keep your brain stimulated, the hundreds of worlds you can chill in and discover new people from everywhere in the globe. All those worlds helping to socialize, makes you see that there are a lot of amazing people in this world.
So to everyone contributing to that amazing community : i hope you have a fantastic day, keep being yourself you are awesome !
Loved being in the chat when this happened
Nice video!
Just be careful in the future that if your eyes ever start hurting you take some time to rest your eyes a little. Having your eyes be that close to a screen can irritate them a lot.
I may be biased though since I have really light sensitive eyes but I think that's important to note to anyone that wants to try something like this challenge themselves.

Disrupts videos make me complete
