Thanks for all the memories ๐
I didn't get as much footage as I've liked, and I'm still new to video editing, but I still wanted to do something like this! Hope you guys like it!

People who shit on Furality seem to forget what Furality is. Yes its a convention, a place to connect with not just those you already cherish but a chance to meet new ones. However, its also an experience that hundreds of people pour their hearts and soul into.
Oh no I agree people are allowed to dislike a theme, or maybe didn't enjoy their experience and that's entirely valid. I'm referring exclusively to those who say furality shouldn't exist. Or not even give it a chance because "I'm not paying 35 for that garbage when I can do the same thing for free." Like if someone went to furality and it just isn't their thing I get that, that's a valid opinion.
I suppose in that instance it's really just a matter of perspective imo. The same could truly be said of any furcon. Why am I spending 100s to 1000s on a con when my friends and I could just as easily get an Airbnb and it would serve the same purpose. I think with all things it's the shared experience of a space surrounded by more than just a handful of friends that truly makes it all worth while. While we are willing to pay 80+ dollars for reg at a normal con. The 35 for a vr one we scoff in indignation at the thought. Disregarding the countless hours people put into making these worlds for us to enjoy. I dunno I guess call me sentimental but I think supporting their effort and being able to share in the experience and story they were trying to tell makes a small 35 dollar fee worth it. Honestly though this is just my humble opinion.
At the end of the day, when we finally sign off, we can say that for a brief moment, we lived. We got to experience something beautiful surrounded by those we care about. Personally I think that is worth supporting.
While sure there are things you could criticize, that shouldn't mean it deserves its downfall, or to downplay the real personal connections people make at these events. We should be grateful that we are given an opportunity, that for but a moment in time, we can just be.
