Your avatar and your username are the first thing players in VRChat see. The service offers you the opportunity to change your username right from their official site. To do that, you just need to log into your profile using your browser and your account details.

How to rename your account in VRChat

It’s not possible to change the user name in VRChat. You can only change the display name that users can see above your avatar in the virtual spaces. However, before you do this you should remember that you can only do it once every three months. The countdown will start from the last time you changed your name. You can do this from any device that has access to a browser. To do this you need to:

• Log in to your account using the data from VRchat.
• After that on the main page click on the gear at the top of the screen.

• At the end just click the Change Display Name button and you’re done.

Remember, you can only do this once every 90 days. Also, your name must not be the same as that of other users. So you will have to be creative to come up with an original display name.

What is the best VR Headset for newers in VRChat

Many people when they become interested in virtual reality face the problem of choosing the right headset. The problem is that some headsets can be quite expensive and technological. They will be useful for experienced VR users and those who aren’t sorry to spend up to $1000 on a VR headset. However, if there is a universal solution for not much money for someone who wants to try VRChat himself.

From my personal experience I can advise you to get yourself Oculus Quest 2. This VR headset starts at $300. It can be used in connection with a PC (and there is a wireless headset option) as well as separately as a standalone device.

The fact that the headset okulus has its own operating system, which allows users to download apps and run some programs directly on the headset. If you’re new to VR, it will be quite a cheap and versatile solution for you.

And yet the question of whether to buy VR is quite acute for many users. I would advise you to try to go to the VR club and try the headsets yourself. This is the only way to understand if this kind of entertainment suits you and if you really need a headset.
