Not surprised but still concerned that eventually the good times will be over. vrchat right now feels like a place not yet touched by eternal summer (or the modern equivalents of... eternal bots, ads and ai?), full of real people, diversity of experiences, and talent. It's also a wild place to see the most obscure hardware of vr in use such as face tracking and haptic suits. And some people even have adult peripheral integration. For me it's my motivation to learn 3d art. Don't think I'd continue if I didn't have a place to share it. I don't want the inevitable enshitification, but there's no way it will be a free ride forever. EAC was already a blow to the community. I just hope it retains some charm when it reaches some stable state of monetization. And I hope it inspires more VR-as-a-social-tool programs, since I think games are far more of a novelty in VR than being able to meet people at events without leaving my house. It seems like a natural evolution of meeting people over chatrooms.
