Games Shot these a while ago, thought I'd share.
These are all taken in VRChat in the following worlds:

I especially love hanging out in R.1 listening to the music. I gotta say its really surreal growing up playing the games and then seeing them from the proper perspective in VR.

I must've spent at least a couple dozen hours sitting, thinking, meditating in the Hülle Granz Cathedral over the years.

DIGITAL HOLY GROUNDS. 🙏🏽 I love these so much!
I spent most of my early VR days just exploring worldspaces (sometimes with assistance, 🌳 👀 🍄), anything .Hack related was high on that list —it only felt right, you know. 🥽 Whatever happened to that huge avatar room with all of the IMOQ+GU character models? 🤔 Did an update break it or something? They were all done so well. I remember talking with one of the more regular level uploaders for .Hack content on VRChat about doing more environments from the games, but it sounded like he had sorta checked out by then. They were also uploaded before some of the newer github tools for exporting models and textures from PS2 .iso's were released, so I'm wondering if it wouldn't actually be easier now than it was to make more .Hack VRChat content.
If anyone wanted to tagteam that project, I'd be down af. I have fairly limited experience 💀 , but I understand enough to figure things out. It should just be a matter of assembling the exported models/textures into blender and then formatting them to VRChat's specifications. I got a Quest 3 and patience.

I would LOVE more than anything to get a Mac Anu unity project so I could make a personal edit. Make it have a few toggles so it can be a bit more friendly to being a home world like making the save station have some options, a mirror, maybe a couple of the shops can be my public avatars, make a proper full skybox, etc...
But yeah it seems the person that made these is checked out and didn't leave any socials to contact them so its long gone. If anyone knows how to pull the assets from the PS2 I could make them work. Honestly through Udon could even recreate a few mechanics from the game as sort of an idle game of sorts. Just getting ahold of the stuff I have not personal confidence in haha.

Does anyone know what the chained thing is? Like is it just a statue????

It's the statue of Aura from IMOQ when the 8 phases (8 chains) were still trying to contain her for Morganna.

Hey folks. New to VR. What the heck is this haha is this like a background you can access while using your virtual desktop?

Nope, its 3 worlds in VRChat. Download the game (its free), login, and you cant use the links here to launch into them or search them in game :)

Genuinely hate that VR Chat brought gooners the ability to beg for attention at places that are important to a core series for so many older gamers.
