Hi tara

[@TheRealCookedEgg]

Hi

[@BahRyceVR]

Why doesn't the community bored show up on Quest 2?

[@Katylenx]

Hi i love your videos but how do u get the streamer cam on vr I can’t find it

[@Ratboycure]

Team sports day?

[@machineboyrecroom]

The best question I have heard all day is “Why did Rec Room add Friendly Fire to the quests?”

[@Cuttlef1sh]

Be thankful they didnt add FF to swords

[@Cuttlef1sh]

@LeviFailzAtLife O h d e a r g o d

[@machineboyrecroom]

I remember one time I was being friendly fired by someone so I took there weapon. Eventually we votekicked them. I really hate it when people (especially little children who probably should be on a junior account) friendly fire and then don’t revive.

[@prollydpool]

Too lazy to turn it off

[@SiIIyBiIIy44]

Exactly like if you aren't supposed to friendly fire your teammates then why is it a feature?

[@AlienSoda778]

Question: Rec Room should add a player count for the amount of players in a room, so you know who is in there before you join. Sometimes when I'm playing games on Rec Room that encourage or straight up require multiple players to work, I have to join to figure out if players are in there or not (usually in the smaller ones there aren't). I know this isn't that big of a deal, but it is also very simple to what I'd imagine it to be to make it work. Simply having an int count up and down when people join that and leave that game can tell you who is in there, so that when you click on the game you're not forced to join in order to see if anybody is actually in there.

[@GamingAndRCs]

The Quest Ban wave is because of a new rule to get people under 13 off Quest for some reason so they had to or ALL quest players would lose the game because Meta would take it off the store.

[@Tarapeutic]

Ahh interesting, that does make sense!

[@Wookie632]

@@TarapeuticI’d recommend watching bvr’s video on it. It explains a lot

[@PPPOOP_ON_VR]

It makes sense violent games on the quest

I absolutely. love this. i was just thinking about these rec room questions earlier lmao. We can all relate to these questions. amazing video tara also!

I know the answer to the 1987 question... The phrase "Virtual Reality" was first uttered in 1987 when Jaron Lanier, founder of Visual Programming Lab's, coined the term 'virtual reality' attempting to depict the behavior of his company's new gear designed to place the user inside of the computer world in a similar fashion as how it was depicted in the first TRON move. The idea of being inside of a mechanized system goes all the way back to 1935 (depicted in books); however, for the first HEADSET allowing you to view into this imaginary world didn't arrive until 1968, improving upon the prior 'SENSORAMA' design of 1957 (that required you to stan and look through a submarine periscope-style viewfinder). The 1968 headset design was hung from the ceiling. In 87 Lanier phrased the term 'Virtual Reality' as a marketing ploy to break the negative stigma of viewers peering into this virtual world and not needing to be oversized hardware Bloomington the users movement as seen in the past; thus, RecRoom pays homage to the birth of the term 'Virtual Reality' occurring in 1987 as if what was once then intended to be has then actually successfully became developed and deployed at the time the idea was originally conceived.

Things I agree with 1. Cresendo needs to be on quest 2 2. Birthday boxes would be cool 3. other good points in the video Things i disagree with 1. rec rally is cool

[@DeluxianYT]

Now crescendo needs to be on Quest 3

[@RandomFush]

@@DeluxianYT it happened

[@KingNoobInc]

To Tarapeutic: The reason why there are no junior account s on Quest 2 Is because Meta wants to double down on being a 13+ only device, so they threatened Rec Room by saying "if you don't remove junior accounts, we will remove you from the meta store" So they did, knowing 99% of the player base are quest users.

[@xxx_forniteGOD_12342xxx]

Bro, that would make it worse. Now thousands of little kids will be on normal accounts with voice chat, which seems like a loss to me.

[@JubulusPrime]

@@xxx_forniteGOD_12342xxx Meta is a company, it doesn't really care about societal good, they just wanna avoid future lawsuits, companies exist for there own benefit, not to make the world a better place It seems like a much safer position for meta so now if anything goes wrong legally meta has the defence of "We were taking action against ---- before _____, We took action to make sure children under 13 were not using our vr headsets"

[@Prokiller757]

i like how you took at least an hour to get to each room and find a spot to film

[@Tarapeutic]

Yeah, thank you for appreciating that - it does take a long time to film these types of videos because I have to find suitable rooms, and scenic spots within the rooms to set up the streamer cam! 😅

[@Re_chaos]

I do have an answer for juniors getting targeted on meta quest, apparently the official meta quest account said something about they don’t want kids under 12 on their devices. I still hear kids that sound like they were born last week

[@Istealfood-c5o]

My question is “what’s the lore to isle of the lost skulls? Why are we held in a prison at the start?”

[@MxSlurry]

#18 1:30 your question for banning juniors, I have your answer. Meta has always had the rule NO PLAYERS UNDER 13, so Meta essentially demanded that Rec Room remove junior accounts form all Meta devices, or Rec Room would be removed off of their play store. Kind of sad, but respectable decision.

[@Fallin9336]

1:30 they were forced, they’re not banning juniors.

[@xxclvdyxx4228]

WHY IS YOUR VOICE SO CALMING ❤

[@Puerblueskull]

Ikr

[@jimbenny4600]

I worked for recroom from 2020 to 2021 and the reason we dont have streamer cam on quest to is because there’s nowhere to put the video and the reason we don’t have more rec royal maps is because the one we have right now takes up so much data and adding another makes it worse

[@samuel__]

0:50 I LOVE RECRALLY

[@natashajohnson1052]

We got arms and legs now boys

[@vuurvrproductions4656]

1:16 probably gribbly and the other developers

[@RyDaGamer]

1:54 “Why can’t we gift quest items from the shop?” Bro the board says buy as gift

[@KURUM1-LOLXD]

She ment stuff like isle or crescendo

[@bloonkyyytm4092]

0:50 i still playing rec rally is the best RRO

[@MarbleADJ]

2:36 for streamer cam on pc you need 2 monitors. On the quest standalone, you cant really have 2 monitors

[@NitzuYT]

quest cam is a thing for quest games. quetscam just downloads the recordings to your headset, no second or even 1 monitor needed

[@anaverageanimeviewer5696]

All of this talk of lore makes me asks when was there lore and what is the lore? I thought the quests were just some theatre production.

[@ichbinkuhl]

For the orientation thing. Some people even make force kick guns to send people back to orientation and if you get sent to orientation by those guns you loose youre watch wich means you have to redo orientation completely

[@regularYT]

maker pen games

[@aidanpolino6481]

when will rec room add the finger update where your glove does not disappear when you make a pointer finger

[@yoink_1299]

1987 must be when Coach was born. Just a thought

[@smosque4432]

fun fact the maker pen courses were added into the creator college thing i forget what its called but they do exist along with a circuits class aswell.

[@Serenejsmooth]

Every time I see one of those old items that were supposedly "exclusive" being rereleased I have to hit the griddy for ten minutes to calm myself down 😭

[@joeeysname]

2:36 there is no streamer cam on Q2 because recording only shows what the lenses see, and it would be weird if you has to see what the streamer cam is seeing through your lenses

[@TheFirePigeon]

I think i have part of the answer to question 20, When I first played rec room, the first rro I went on was crimson cauldron and I noticed immediately how similar it was to an old wii u exclusive game I use to play called 'Nintendo land'. Basically, it is a game that consists of lots of mini games based on Nintendo's actual games but there are 2 in particular that tie in with this story; 'Legend of zelda battle quest' (golden trophy and crimson cauldron) and 'metroid blast' (jumbotron) I'll start with Battle quest. The reason I think that GT and CC are similar to this is because of the way you progress through the levels, the types of enemies you face and the weapons you use. First of all, the main difference between Battle quest and the rr quests is the fact that in Battle quest, you face pigs but in the rr quests you face goblins. I think this is because if they did pigs in the rr quests it would just look like a straight rip off so they had to change it up but make it memorable. Now I'll talk about the similarities of the two games. They both have swords, shields and bows (I know rr has wands, crossbows and potions too but as I said earlier, they've got to make it not look like a straight up rip off). They also have quite a few very similar enemys such as ground units, stronger ground units, shield units, huge strong units you have to hit from behind ect. But the thing most similar is the cc boss/ those magic bird thingies. They both shoot a projectile that you have to knock back at them with a sword multiple times and they also both summon units. (The bird's units are the exact same thing as the swooping bats in crescendo of the blood moon btw). Finally about Battle quest is the way you progress through rooms in both of them. They both require everyone in the team to stand on something that opens the door in front of them. I know that would probably be in a lot of multiplayer quest games but something about it makes it seem so similar. Now, onto metroid blast. I don't have as much to say about this one because it is not as similar to jumbotron as Battle quest is to the other two quests but, there is one particular level that feels very similar to the jumbotron boss fight. It is against an enemy called kraid (I think) where the battleground is build around him. He has certain weak spots (like how jumbotron's has screens to shoot), can shoot at you and also summon his minions to attack you and lastly they both have fazes. If you got this far, thanks for reading and remember; It's just a theory- a game theory

Why is there a shovel that costs 7000 tokens

[@AirVR]

Idk

[@ciresegittens7162]

I feel like rec room will never add cresendo to quesst and i really wanna play it

[@Swaginatorr44]

Some answers cus im bored Crescendo on Quest 2: The Quest 2 is just a mobile phone really, it physically cant run it with all the fog, particles and big the levels. Junior accs being removed on Meta platforms: Meta doesnt want to get into legal issues with parents, so they made Rec Room, and other games with the option of being under the age of 13, remove the feature. Streamer cam on Quest 2: there is no second screen to cast the camera to. Is coach real or just a TTS: yes shes a real person :) . Does Rec Room think they're better than Roblox: given that they have better moderation, dont sue random KZbinrs for warning about potential terrorist attacks, and not having as much pedos on the platform, yes they think they are better.

[@carman09]

Well personally rec room is better

look at the comment above you i think you're wrong

WAS THAT THE BITE OF '87?????!!!!?!?!??!?!

[@noizyboy6078]

My guess for the whole “1987” obsession is that gribbly was born sometime in 1987

[@DubGamers]

I think I know why Meta Quest 2 banned Rec Room Juniors, It's maybe because of kids eyesight being effected by virtual reality, There could be white neon screens, Epilepsy, and flashing lights. When I first got my VR they said to be over 13+ to play, But obviously kids break the rules of age restriction and make it look like they are old.

[@TacticalVR]

If you realize why the streamer cam isnt on standalone quest is because there is no screen for the streamer cam pov to show on and it's usually a monitor for it to show on

[@itsjoyvr]

will the Rec Center get a MAKE OVER !!!!!!!!! ( also your a good youtuber

[@patriciodorame8467]

Get Tara to 50k!

[@DeluxianYT]

For the person wondering why its called Rec Room: Its cause Rec (Normally) Stands for Recreation which in this case would mean "Activity done for enjoyment when one is not working" For an explanation of basically, Rec Room (or Recreation Room) Is a game of which you go do things and play, and that's exactly what Rec Room is... SO think of it as a game to Play with others and Play Boardgames, In VR. (You get the point)

[@thehunter7854]

4:29 going a step further with that, will there be custom bosses that the community can make?

[@luciennejewkes7707]

1:30 for question 18 is because meta forced rec room to ban all junior accounts for the quest and no, junior accounts will not get banned all together

[@iamme9493]

These questions are really good & interesting! All these questions speak for the RR community! I wonder if any of these (especially the lore questions) will get answered?

[@Tarapeutic]

No audio in your recording, or in-game? That's an usual issue.

[@CamberKid1093_RR]

Ok thanks

[@Axtronical]

I can answer one of these questions. Junior Accounts were eliminated on quest 2 because to use a quest 2, you are supposed to be over 13.

[@helloarchervr]

Why Cant you Friendly fire on a junior account?

[@ImagineBeingAllergicToAxolotls]

Cuz they knew little timmy was gonna keep friendly fireing

[@spiderkidlol]

I sometimes play rec rally. that’s only for the weekly and because I like taking people for flights (yes I can make the cars fly and I only use it as a cool party trick I don’t use it to win)

Aww 😢 everyone forgot about Quest 1 gen 1 users … 😢

I’m here to answer the Crescendo question. A while ago in a gribbly ama someone asked him if it would ever be on the quest 2. His words were “That seems cool! But won’t happen because it is a very performance heavy quest and will lag the headset pretty badly.”

[@therealjollunen-1590]

The Forsaken One, I just want to know what's up with it. They brought up a character that was never mentioned again after.. Hmm.. 🤔 I might just be thinking about this too hard.. Might just be a bubbly recolor..

[@ЭкзотическоеМасло]

Why there's no coach lore? It's in the items, decor and games! Like paintings in Crescendo, her study there too. I think it's just indirect.

[@KSCosmicYT]

The reason they chose the name recroom.. is because a rec room is a room where you go do like sport activity related stuff.. and that used to be what recroom was.. just a rec center with doors that go the the RROs like disk golf and paddle ball

[@sirnooby9192]

noice hope these get answered!

[@TheoneGuyYT]

We had 365 comments like a year lol

[@ScrollVROfficial]

The streamer cam isn’t on quest since there is not more than 1 screen meaning it’s the base headset and it would be impossible to turn it off and it would ruin performance on quest

[@-.dashin.-]

I’d assume that the reason for no streamer can in q2 is because it’s be displayed on the headsets displays, but not an external monitor/source

[@mapo1721]

To answer one question at 1:32 it’s because meta doesn’t allow people under 12 or 13 to use the quest

[@generic_username7]

as much as streamer cam would be cool on quest 2, there doesn't appear to be a simple way to implement it. It would most likely have to be a whole other application, or some how a way to hijack the casting site, which i doubt would happen anytime soon
