Should social hangout games make a comeback? Habbo was successful for a time. VRChat and Webfishing got pretty popular too.
The real GOAT of this genre was PS Homehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjA4evwBO4I&list=PLFA544E7D198E27F7&index=4
>>738912656Frutiger Space looks nice. I do miss habbo and I particularly like the frutiger aero aesthetic.youtube.com/watch?v=V94d1fur2VE&pp=ygUOZnJ1dGlnZXIgc3BhY2XSBwkJBAsBhyohjO8%3DHopefully the dev for this game isn't a fucking retard like the webfishing dev
hell yeah i love being policed by faggots
Hell no. The only one of these I've ever enjoyed was Second Life, and even that was just because it was fun to pose ball with an alt.
The only one I'm interested in is a YGO fan gamehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoEowBWY5Co
>>738912929>Hopefully the dev for this game isn't a fucking retard like the webfishing devqrd?
I still play Mabinogi after like 20 years because the game is more social oriented than others.There are lots of small activities you can do while chatting. It's great. I've lost many nights just doing menial tasks while talking with strangers.
>>738913326webfishing dev let themself get doxxedrecieved irl threatsstopped development on the game and stepped away from the industry entirely.

>>738913326>introduce all sorts of gay cosmetic shit and titles in the game that are dirt cheap in-game currency>players ask for straight representation>dev adds one thing and it's the most expensive item>also didn't do shit against lobbies being made by obvious groomers
The genre was ruined by trannies
VRC was only good when during COVID retards could stand around chatting and getting drunkThe moment women and kids started flocking to that game shit was never the same
>>738913592If you let trannies have every single space don’t complain trannies are everywhere
>>738913620No it was ruined by furries and trannies as >>738913592 said. Look up any vrchat video on youtube now and all the results are cringe furries. Yeah women ruin it too but half of that is to blame on the simps who give them attention. I think most kids just stay on roblox or fortnite.
>>738913592Bro the world is like 0.1% trannies they cannot ruin everything. If they somehow are then you need to just stop entering their spaces. I never see trans people and never interact with them online. This is a you issue.
I still have sex on Second Life almost every day.
>>738912865I kneel, I loved fucking around in that game like going into the cinema to watch Robot Chicken skits or play bowling.>>738913592Nailed it. It was always bound to happen however, the amount of guys I knew back in the day who'd be all like "I play as a girl character just to scam people haha, bro they don't know I'm a guy haha, that's all bro hahaha, of course I'm gonna pick a girl character I wanna look at a girl's ass hahaha" absolutely became trannies. If not that then they're bisexual. It was a fun genre once upon a time, but things like webfishing all but cemented the fact it's just swathes of trannies now.
>>738912656make one like yakuza where the world is populated by a bunch of really deep "mini"games. think about it
Hub zones were literally common until you slop gobblers kept buying lazy shit like hero shooters
>>738912656>>738912929game has promise simply because the character creator isn't deep and the aesthetic is fairly niche and doesn't appeal to shit mentally ill freaks would like (i.e shit with furries)
>>738912656All social hubs are on Roblox now. They're boring but they've always been boring
For me it's second life
>>738912656webfishing was fine problem was gameplay and social systems weren't deep enough and so it got boring. probably would've been fixed if shartyniggers didn't have a stick up their ass. VRchat seems fine to but VR makes me sick so I stay away.I mostly play Tower Unite these days, lots of fun to be had there.

>>738914018You know you can play vrchat without a headset, right?
>>738914042yeah but its kinda designed around it
>>738913706It was ruined far far before thenI was there aince the startIt sucked. Then became good when old men driking and telling stories. Then a youtuber made a video and women and kids flocked. Then came the furries and trannies

>>738913541>players ask for straight representation>dev adds one thing and it's the most expensive itemthis was funny though
I wonder what the lobby list looks like for webfishing at this very moment
>>738913798That's just funny. The whole webfishing controversy only involved the dev and shartyfags. If the trannies who played the game really liked the game and supported the dev they'd still be playing it. It's not like they'd have to be worry about being doxxed because you can't really be doxxed through the game. The reason they would ditch the game is because normal people ditched the game, and they want to go where normal people go. So yes, it is trannies that invade peoples spaces. Not the other way around.
>>738912656FriendOS is too action-focused to be considered a social hangout game but I was getting a lot of good vibes from the demo. Would recommend.
>>738914325they "ditched" the game because its a barebones demo with fuck all to do retard
>>738912656VRC incidentally continues to pop off in Japan, with them practically pioneering the tools for further expression. One has to wonder why it's deteriorating in the West, probably all the disgusting furries and trannies that reject beauty.
>>738914386Who knows, if they stayed around maybe the dev would've updated the game...
>>738914494it was made abundantly clear that the dev would not update the game anymore, so everyone left. this isn't rocket science.
>>738914492Japanese VRchat is filled with furries bro, is everyone in this thread just a larper
>>738912656Its a groomer genre so no
>>738914492I remember seeing things that interested me like people recreating parts of PSO in vrchat, and also there being an SAO game. Those projects are probably dead in the water though. You can't really get combat mechanics and long progression to work out in the game.
>>738914189>IMVUBlack queens LOVE this game
for me, it's old PN SL Raid, or general griefing videos
>>738912656Still playing NGS.
>>738912929Alright that's pretty cute.
>>738914958It’s not a game. It’s a life style.
