I don’t get it. Why not just tell them? What do you do if someone hands you a controller for a tv game equivalent?

In VR-world, you have your eye direction and hands - not even your full eyes, with all the muscles around them that may communicate more than anything else on your body. I suppose you could flip them off. :) It's an interesting point about how VR avatars, for all their 'presence', are very limited. VR video chat seems much better.
- jncfhnb 3y agoIf someone is showing you a tv show it seems extremely rude to me to not look at the show as a way of passively showing disinterest vs just saying it’s not for you; no?

- jncfhnb 3y agoLike what? What’s a polite, non verbal way to show disinterest that is not available to you when in VR?
- wolverine876 3y agoI don't understand your question. That's how people express emotion, mostly. I'll trust you are not being argumentative: Facial expression - eyes (the muscles around them), mouth (smile, blank, frown, etc) - posture, legs, arms, etc etc etc. You can look disinterested, you can look like it's the best thing ever, or any other human emotion.
