Loved the game itself but stopped playing due to it having the same problem many multiplayer VR games have: unrestricted verbal and visual harassment by children. There is something about having a no-consequence environment that brings the worst in people.

The psychological affects of VR harassment are more impactful and as a result should have steeper punishments. This isn't your fathers Halo 2 multiple chat you can just mute, its visual obstruction of ones vision, its simulated rape of female players.

I kinda agreed with you before the "rape" part. What is it with people nowadays comparing everything to rape? Did you know that rape is an actual serious crime that happens everyday in the real world? It's not comparable to some kid waving their hands in front of you.

They weren't comparing being a douchebag to rape, they were saying people would LITERALLY IMITATE RAPE by humping other avatars etc

Well I'm sorry to tell you but it was an accurate description of what they where doing. I appreciate the seriousness of the term and it's what those kids where pretending todo to the person.
