Creating a clone in VRChat is getting more mainstream than ever. It seems like, VR cloning might be the newest trend of 2017.
One of users who cloned themselves is Rad, known for his experiment, as seen in a video called “Radpocalypse” on ThePhantom’s YouTube channel, a link to which is provided with the following QR code.
“I do see it becoming a thing. It was only a thing I did once, and I think I got up to 8 clients at once.” Rad said, and then added, “But cloning in general I do find funny.”
Whether it’s funny or not, clones should be taken seriously. Don’t forget to eliminate your clone as soon as it becomes self-aware and stops depending on you.
