Let's HiveFest 🎉🎊 on 12 & 13 November 2021.
So here goes, again: This is my first time participating in HiveFest. First time participating in a Virtual Reality ("VR") event. In fact, I do not own any VR devices. Thankfully, we are still able to participate without a VR device; as there is an option to join without a VR device.
I've downloaded Altspace via Steam and it is FREE. If we register before 5 November 2021, registration is free. Otherwise, some fees will apply as explained at https://hivefe.st/. You can also get more information on the event at the aforementioned link.
I really enjoy creating avatars and characters even for gaming purposes and this time around I've created my avatar as above.💪🏽😎
As this is my first time, I am truly looking forward to the experience and activities that will be held.
In terms of user experience and ease of registration, it is pretty direct and straight forward even for a newbie like me. For me, it took less than 10 minutes to complete the registration, with a relatively good internet connection. The creation of the avatar took slightly longer as I was torn between two dresses and contemplating too much on the colours and design.🤣😝
Plus, if you love collecting #hivebuzz badges as much as I do, there is one awaiting us for participating in this event. How to get a personal HiveFest Badge.

Hope you have loads of fun, I tried last year and yes it was fun for the short while I was able to connect. You will meet some super Hive Members who join in this event.
With our bad connection, due to electricity outages I doubt I will try this time round, will catch the video feedback, like your dress and avatar sure to stand out!
Thank you @thoughtfulposts and @wesphilbin, for the support and upvote. 🙏🏽 It is very thoughtful of you and much appreciated. 🤗
Hi 👋🏽 @joanstewart, many thanks for your well wishes and for sharing your experience from last year.
That's a bummer. 🙁 Hopefully, the electricity outages are not for forever -like a temporary issue? I am curious about this now, if you don;t mind sharing more. 😊
Thank you! I took some time to select and for some reason, in the end, decided to go with black, white and grey. 😂😅
Running blackouts have been happening in South Africa since 2008, no sight of total repairs in the foreseen future either! Currently in 2.5 hours outage x3 times per day.....
Black dress with fire-engine red trim and read hair would look smart! Have fun designing the ideal outfit for the venture, it truly is a lot of fun!
Thank you for sharing this information with me and opening my eyes to the world of South Africa and wow! Today I learn. 😊
Thank you very much once again for your well wishes. 🤗🤗🌹
Many places suffering from different difficulties, we have to learn to adapt as we go.
🙁💔 Yet many take life itself for granted and make a big deal over first-world problems.
Nonetheless, kudos for adapting.💪🏽
