>"It’s easy to create an identity that represents the real you in Facebook Spaces. This helps people recognize you and makes VR feel more like hanging out in person. Just choose one of your Facebook photos and you’ll see an array of options for your VR appearance."
>"You and your friends can relive personal memories from your own Timelines, or even make new ones as you explore things that interest you from people and Pages you follow."
>"We want Facebook Spaces to be a comfortable place for everyone. You have control of your experience, including the ability to pause at any time. Pausing moves you into a quiet space where you can take a break away from other people and activities. You can also choose to mute your friends or remove them from your space. Facebook Spaces is all about connecting with friends and family that you know and trust, and we’re committed to making VR a positive place for all."
>"Today is only the beginning. We’re launching in beta, and we’ll add new features as we learn from your feedback and continue exploring what makes social VR experiences most meaningful. We also plan to bring the experience to more platforms over time. We’ve only just scratched the surface of social VR technology. In the future, it will continue to transform the way people around the world stay connected with their communities and those closest to them. We can’t wait to get there."
Also VR general. Where do you guys see this heading?

Henry Peterson
why do they all look like that.
Adam Kelly
First thing I thought of when seeing this is a Dark Souls-like feature where you leave messages to others in the real world. People can rate these messages and the best ones stay persistent. Stuff like "cashier is bitchy, be careful" or "cops never check handicap parking, go ahead".

This is like an episode of black mirror waiting to happen
Liam Nelson
I wonder how they achieve those facial expressions. Are they completely random or does the devices somehow track your face? Are there supposed to be tiny cameras somewhere tracking you all the time?
Also, that lip sync is kind of inaccurate but it's there.
Alexander Parker
Fuck everything about this. Of all the ways facebook could have chosen to ruin VR, this is the worst.
Seriously, this is everything we feared would happen when facebook bought oculus
Michael Sanchez

Eli Wright
>facebook wants to try making a second life clone
Samuel Morgan
That's why you set fake accounts up now before they start requesting urine samples, biometrics and a tracking chip agreement to sign up
