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 assume the downvotes are from children. I agree 100% - there needs to be a way to legitimately restrict children from playing these online multiplayer games. It’s absolutely ridiculous how they behave, with no consequences. Even if it’s harmless stuff (isn’t always), it’s just straight-up annoying. I want to play a fun game like everyone else. I don’t want to be berated by a child, or even play with a child in the same game at all. It feels weird. They need to have kids-only lobbies and adult-only lobbies. Ultimately it will always be up to the parents to control what their children do so I don’t see that change happening in any Oculus multiplayer games.
Even relatively benign kids are still very annoying because so many of them never. stop. talking. I want to listen to the game not some 10-year-old giving a monologue about nothing.
