Hello, everyone. Today I'd like to show you a VRChat world called Patriki, created by Dr Morro — my favorite world creator in VRChat. Every world he builds feels so original and beautifully crafted that I honestly consider him a true genius when it comes to world creation.

Patriki is one of his smaller worlds compared to his other work. It recreates a neighborhood in Moscow, set in no particular year. And yet, within this single world, there's a remarkable range of atmosphere and music. You'll find a park playground, a club, a cafe, a convenience store, an art gallery — each area carrying its own distinct sound, whether it's club music, jazz, classical, or synthwave, all woven naturally into the space. There are even cars moving along the streets, which gives the world a real sense of life. It draws you in and makes the experience feel that much more immersive.

The art gallery is also worth taking your time with — it features pieces from him and another artist, and walking through it genuinely feels like stepping into a real gallery.

One more note on how this was filmed: I used redirected walking for the entire video, meaning I was physically walking the whole time. Because of that, the pace closely matches natural walking speed. Unlike most gameplay footage you'll find on YouTube, this will move quite slowly and calmly. That was intentional — I wanted it to feel closer to a real-life walking or travel video rather than something that reads as "gameplay." So I'd invite you to watch this at a relaxed pace, and hopefully, even through the screen, you'll come to feel the quiet charm of this world

Hey everyone! Today I'm showing you a VR experience that's... drumroll... a STALKER VR mod. And no, you heard that right — I'm not talking about some Stalker-like game, this is an actual VR mod for STALKER itself. What the developer has pulled off in such a short time is honestly impressive. Keep in mind this isn't even a full release yet, it's still in alpha and improving fast, so I'm genuinely excited to see where this goes. Huge respect to the dev for putting together something this good.

I think this mod makes it pretty clear why a lot of existing VR survival games fall short in comparison. I'd like to dig into that more in a separate, deeper-dive video at some point. A lot of people assume it comes down to "budget," but I actually see it completely differently — I think it's more of a fundamental philosophy problem in how these games get designed in the first place.

Anyway, I had an absolute blast playing this game, and I put a lot of effort into filming and editing to capture it as well as I could. I'd really appreciate it if you enjoy watching it. I'll be back next time with even better content — see you then!

Hey everyone! Today I'm showing you a VRChat world called Astral Bounds by Vectriel. If you asked me to name one of the most beautiful worlds in VRChat, this would definitely be on the list. But it's not just about the looks — there are hidden spots and objects tucked away all over the place, and the environment reacts to them in ways that completely satisfy that urge to explore. Honestly, it's one of the best VRChat worlds out there for that reason alone. The content is so packed that just exploring every nook and cranny will easily eat up close to an hour of playtime.

This world gets updated every now and then, and the version I played through is the latest one, last updated back in 2025. Don't just watch the video — I'd really recommend jumping in and experiencing it for yourself. Enjoy!

The combination of helmet cam + VR treadmill + realistic graphics creates thrilling, exciting footage that monitor games can never achieve. I think every VR FPS game should have an option to support either a helmet cam or a body cam. That way, as video content, it would stand apart from typical monitor game footage and make it much easier to produce compelling, interesting videos.

Quite a few VR games aiming for realism have come out, but all of them have been very hesitant to deal with real place names, real organizations, and real events. No matter how realistic the gun implementation is, no matter how great the handling feels, the game itself might be fun, but because the setting is so detached from the real world stage, the immersion just isn't that high. Whether it's Onward, Contractors Showdown Exfil Zone, or Tactical Assault.

Do monitor games like Squad, Hell Let Loose, Ready or Not, and Battlefield seem more polished because they overwhelmingly outclass VR games in gameplay quality? I don't think that's really it. These games actively use real events, place names, and countries fitting for military games. That's what makes the world feel so much more real. Aren't there already plenty of VR games that only use fictional place names and worlds?

The game Geronimo that came out today surprised me — despite being a VR early access game that just launched today, it has more content and a wider variety of accessories/gear than I expected. And out of all VR games, it's the one that comes closest to the atmosphere/vibe level of a typical monitor game. There's still a lot to improve, like the AI and other things, but if it keeps developing, I think it could well rise to become one of the best VR games out there.
