VRCHAT BEGINNERS GUIDE (Introduction for New Players!)

Here is a new-players guide on how to play VRChat!! :) This is a great video if you’ve never played the game before, or maybe you played but got overwhelmed. If you’ve been to VRChat events and heard things like “everyone needs a yellow avatar” or want to know how to reduce lag when you’re in an instance full of 80 people- this video is also for you! I literally thought of everything I wish I knew when I first started playing, and covered it all. If you have more questions (or wanna make a custom avatar) then join my Discord ^-^

This video is from 2021! My newer 2024 version includes much more features like Groups & Creator Economy updates! 😊

Good resource for new players- comment for the algorithm gods.

[Fanaticalight]

VRChat needs more tutorials like this since I see new players confused on how to do things. Especially with the new UI! Great work PHIA!

After having vrchat for like 2 years, I still feel like I don’t know how it works. This video helps a lot. Thanks phia!

I've been playing the game for 2 years, but it's always nice to learn some new things!

I've been trying to get into VR Chat (desktop mode before investing in VR Hardware) for years but every time I open the game: I walk around, somebody says hi to me, and I bloop back to my default spawn point because I'm scared that something creepy or traumatizing might happen.

But this video helps me feel more safe and confident. I think I will try to get back into it again. Thank you so so so much!

Me, a Known User, watching this: "Fascinating"

[temix]

Thank you Phia! My first time in the game, I knew nothing and it lead to a really terrible experience. But this video has restored my interest in giving VRChat a second chance.

[MindALot]

I'm not sure if I missed it - but another small change that can give you 3-4 frames in a crowded world - is disabling anti-aliasing. Yes, you will see jagged lines, but at least you'll have a few frames to see what is going on. (safety settings -> performance -> adv graphics -> multi-sampling anti-aliasing (select disabled))

[flameknight]

Great intro for new users! Sadly there will always be some malicious user out there but VRChat is definitely has more wonderful people to meet and hangout with!

[zellishmusic]

I've been playing VRchat for like... a year now, and still learned something!
Thanks, PHIA! <3

[gabrote]

Exactly the kind of toolbox I've come to expect from good software. Extremely customizable, just as digital body projection should be. GJ, devs, and thanks for the tutorial.

[xrkcaleb]

your voice and personality is very calming and thanks for the help

[ChroahCresta]

I already knew all of this but I still watched it from start to finish and comment to support the algorithm

[liminalniko]

I've been playing vrchat for a few years but it's always nice to know something new so I watched. Turns out I did learn some new things. Thanks for making this, it's rly helpful 😊

[MappleID]

Just got VR Chat and I can say this really helps out, also I love your music taste!

[ninicookie]

I've been playing vrchat for a while but this video still taught me things I didn't know :3

[citizenblue]

Thank you, PHIA! I'm a new VRChat user and it feels like my first day of school all over again🤮

That’s why I haven’t moved up from visitor after playing it so many times! Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
