It's rare for me to look at something and confidently say it looks soulless, but that's the sad truth of the image.

If they were all anime girls, would you feel differently?

Oh I'm sorry, it's clearly the fact that this doesn't have onemonepeas and exaggerated expressions that this image lacks emotion. It's not like 3d modelers have any way to make something look like it's genuinely having fun shooting people in the middle of what's supposed to be a park (complete with innocent bystanders in the cross-fire) without resorting to hand-drawn content.

Whoa whoa whoa. Slow down. It just so happens the most popular SocialVR platform is absolutely dominated by anime.

I’ve heard people using anime avatars talk about styles from all sorts of platforms not being appealing. It’s more of a joke about the anime bias the metaverse has.

Ah, that's fair. Not the kind of person to use meta, so most of my comments on it are rather third person.

Why yes of course what a stupid question
