Man, I hate looking at myself in mirrors or even hearing myself in recordings. I just don't understand people who actually like it.
Theres no other feedback of your own avatar except for viewing it, if i am trying to immerse my self i wanna make sure i dont look jacked up.
Source: me, i play.
I mean, in VR you're really just checking how well you did your avatar. There's a sense of accomplishment in doing something that looks like you with a very limited set of tools. Haven't tried it in VR, but I know the exact feeling from The Sims series.
I understand checking when first creating it, but I find it weird to check it after that. I don't even make my avatar in games look anything like myself. It's not that I'm bad looking or anything, I just don't like looking at myself, and that includes pictures, videos, etc.
