Things I wish I knew BEFORE starting Rec Room, building relationships, having a best friend, make your own game, do not go to PVP's, toxic as a snake, feeling like you're in the environment, create memories from the past. Bottom line, I love Rec Room, I play it everyday, and I can thank my brother for giving me this game. 5:35 hahahahaha my new head! I have social anxiety, and I am a shy person as well, so it's not just you. Rec Room has changed my life of gaming. I had no friends at all before joining Rec Room, now I have a best friend, gained more subscribers on my channel and more followers on my Instagram.

Those friends u meet ARE real friends and usually more accessible. Met most of my friends in MMOs in the 2000’s. I even met my rl husband in a game. Been married 10 yrs now. He became a firefighter n we have 2 kids hahah Did a search to see what Rec room was abt for my 12 yr old. Can’t seem to find one directed at the parents as far as keeping ur kids safe n all… BUT this was a good intro at least and ur voice is so charming/calming 💛 👍
@Tarapeutic3 жыл бұрын
My tips for keeping kids safe on rec room - Check in with them often, put them on a junior account if they're under 13 (it's the rules, they can't talk to other people though), have a chat with them about street smarts (basically same as anywhere on the internet. Don't trust people, don't let people ask you for personal information, etc) It's a great game and the bad people are few and far between, but one must be aware that like anywhere on the internet, sketchy people do exist unfortunately. Thanks for your comment! Maybe I will come out with a video like that in the future! :)
