VRChat+ Feature Ideas

I understand you need money, so I'm not asking for it to be free, but it's way too silly to make these extra favorite tabs a subscription based purchase, especially because you can't access them once your subscription runs out. I just want to organize my worlds appropriately. Games, Walkathons, Hangout, Tech Demos, Explore, whatever other genre of world there may be I don't get on VRC often enough to justify paying every month for this, but I will buy VRC+ for a silly item like a crowbar. I've already done that for the groan tube

Add more reporting options so it’s easier to report people on the right category

Incentivize VRC+ with Decorative Nameplates! Allow us to change the UI color of the nameplate background. I could also see decorative overlays (instead of a color change) such as having a little VR Cat or VR Rat as part of the nameplate. These should be pretty subtle and not too distracting. They could also be disabled by users who have 0% nameplate opacity or nameplates disabled entirely.

Since we have fancy portal skins, we should have fancy loading screens to go along with them as a separate VRC+ (or non-vrc+ purchasable) item. For example, walking into the New Years firework/flaming portal would put the user in a Fireworks loading screen.

can buy up to a year's subscription at a time. What if we launch a VRC+ subscription that lasts a lifetime once you buy it? I think someone with a lot of money can buy it.

Throw in a small amount of VRChat Credits each month with VRC+. Doesn't have to be a crazy amount, just enough so it stacks over a longer period of time, so you can support a creator every now and then. I think it would provide a range of positive outcomes: Increased value of VRC+. Player satisfaction. Creator satisfaction. And most importantly imo: Boosted VRC Credits / Creator Economy awareness and usage. Extra ideas: Award the Credits only for playing the game consecutively - achieving streaks for logging e.g. no less than weekly. This could balance it a little bit more, for the potential cash "lost" on giving the credits away.

Currently, VRC+ users can join up to 200 Groups. It would be nice to raise the group limit increase / higher group limit / join more groups. Groups have become like discord servers where everyone has one, and it's easy to hit the limit now, even when you've gotten rid of all your vanity groups. Especially if you go to events like in the rave/club scene where all entry is via Groups.

I think everyone needs to hear this, not just the people at VRChat. Since the feeback page seems to be more for bug reports and suggestions I'm going to put this here, it's the most relevant board. This was going to be a text post explaining my position on VRC+ and its predatory nature, but it ended up too long. I've instead attached the bulk of it as a text file, which I recommend taking the time to read before the next section down here. I'll get right to my two possible solutions for "fixing" VRC+: Roll back all the changes made since its introduction and limit it to something that only affects the subscriber's experience. No exclusive items, no manipulative tactics, just increased limits and some menu themes. The items can be put in their own little marketplace, maybe VRC+ subscribers can get them for free but they should be available for purchase by anyone even past their corresponding event. Introduce a one-time payment. I'm not the first person to suggest this, and as I've already said it's much better for the user if they're able to actually recover from a purchase instead of having to add it to their list of monthly bills. I would personally gladly pay any amount of money up to $100 ONCE to get the benefits of VRC+ and support the developers, but demanding money every month is just plain greedy. Limited-time items should still be made available for purchase by anyone past their event. I very much doubt you will listen since you're encouraged to think only about short-term profits and all I'm really making here is a moral argument. The current model is predatory, it hurts people, it uses manipulative tactics to take money from them and it will fail eventually. VRC+ in its current incarnation is a rot that's been consuming everything good about this game, if you continue down this path VRChat will die and you will have no one to blame but yourselves. My advice is to step back and reconsider what you're doing, why you're doing it and who you're doing it for, because the people you are currently hurting are the ones who made you as successful as you are.

Different frames for photographs you could buy from a store or unlock the photograph system is nice, but I feel it could be visually improved or least you want something a bit better from the stock version. The one I'd like to have is a 1800 picture frames with the picture a bit faded to match the theme. I'm sure plenty of players would love a family portrait size frame which is a tad bigger than stock version to fit "everyone" Imagine having a Neon or cyberpunk animated frame for your photos or classic wooden ones or someone you like you can apply a heart frame around it which would be a great seller for Valentine's Day. Or maybe even a frame for statics and graphs if your someone enjoys showing off data. Or the forbidden idea of have a frameless photograph which I'm sure people would pay for. I know it's not an important feature, but I feel it would bring a bit more life to the older photograph system.

It's really easy to "collect avatars", even ones that you create and upload just for yourself -- different outfits just to keep the performance level sane. It'd be nice to have sub-folders in favorites, for additional sorting (because a list of 99 gets long to sort through). And please, bump up the favorite capacity (maybe instead of increasing the list size > 99 which would get tedious, maybe nested subdirectories could allow for "infinite favorite capacity". Come on, it's not like a few integers and pointers are going to break your database bank.
