While I was doing Gimp work of removing the green screen and making icons for the project, troubling (but understanding) news came to me from Kovo. This tweet;

\nAlready, the emotions are mixed between long time supporters of Sayon and his work, and ones that feel Sayon’s ‘just whining about 3.0’.
\nLike these series of tweets between Sayon and an obvious 3.0 supporter;
\n
\n
\nThe last tweet from this ‘Stella’ feels like “\ud83e\udd37\u200d\u2642\ufe0f Ehh.. whatever. Have uh.. fun I guess porting to a DEAD game.”
\nThis just… I had no words after those tweets. If only they checked out his worlds when there was time, they may be singing a new tune. But that’s just how I feel about the unfolding situation.
\nSayon though, his reasons are fully justified in my eyes. He knows CVR is a ‘dead’ game compared to VRChat, but he doesn’t care about that. This isn’t a gamble he hopes will pay off. No, nothing like that. The truth in the matter here, is he just can’t in his conscience keep supporting a game that the devs have turned their backs on him (and all 2.0 content creators.. like myself). And for that, I support him 110%, and I will likely come back
\nto CVR (once the porting is done) just to do that.
\nMaybe if enough diehard 2.0 content creators move their work to CVR, the game could finally become the ‘VRChat Killer’ it was originally destined to be.<\/p>\n

From this, I wish I could say “what better way to show the VRChat Team that 2.0 needs to be maintained”.. but we all know that will never happen. They have clearly made up their mind that 2.0 is ‘dead to them’.
\nIs it from VRC+ money? Or is it truly because of what Ruubick once said of the matter?
\n
\n
\n“That’s not how software development works.” Huh.. sure as hell has been ‘working’ fine
\nfor ChilloutVR there, bud. Interesting, huh?
\nWe may never know the VRChat Team’s true intentions for one day killing off 2.0. But whatever their intention is, supporting legacy content creators… isn’t one of them. And this isn’t even about “3.0 is awesome because it adds so much complexity that 2.0 never had!”.. it’s about the content creators. Without content creators, VRChat would be a dead game. I don’t say this as it’s obvious, I say this as it’s the TRUTH.
\n2.0, is the FOUNDATION.. of VRChat! When the game launched, SDK 2.0 was there. Unity versions have come and gone, but SDK 2.0 was there. But instead of maintaining their foundation, they find it easier to demolish it to the ground.<\/p>\n

I can’t wait ’till the day 2.0 is finally destroyed. I’ll be there, watching the two general channels eating popcorn, with the obvious shitstorm and trying not to choke
\nwith Tupper downplaying the entire thing. It’ll be glorious watching the devs try to calm people down.
\nThough of course, there will also be the horde of brainwashed 3.0 supporters backing the devs, and also the confused “HUH, what’s going on?!” people will be there.
\nI predict the outcome would have the devs getting away with it (as it is their game, their rules), but a LOT of people leaving the game (and hopefully removing their work) in disgust.
\nThe only true way to show the VRChat Team that they need to keep 2.0 available, is through their budget. Once they see less and less people on (and less VRC+ subs coming in), maybe then they’ll realize they shot themselves in the foot with this move.<\/p>\n

Never forget who kept you alive for years — the SDK 2.0 content creators.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
