Expression Wheel
Mr Ru
In the spirit of the best chat client, MS Comic Chat. It would be nice to assign expression vismes to a wheel that could be accessed on the fly without the need for hand gestures.
I think the operation would be simple. Hold down a button and use one of the sticks/touchpads to place the dot on the wheel.
Further ideas could be multiple levels to each expression for varied vismes, should avatar creators want them. One downside to the wheel is you can only blend one expression with one next to it.

The touchpad on VR controllers have already sort of selection wheel. I think there are 6 or 8 sections. You must touch the edge of the touchpad.
But some players want use more emotes or use only face emotes, then press down controller button to open special emote selection wheel and select it with touchpad as mouse.
Combination of both touchpads can even make more emotes, but the problem is we use it also for finger writing, which need some pose on some avatars.
Alternative is jump to second selection wheel and you can directly select expression with touchpad. This can indicated just above the touchpad which selection screen is activated.

Desktop support? If not downvoted.

Mr Ru: Yep. Like the weapon select wheels in a lot of modern games. Tried and true solution
